Kerrigan: Captain Raynor, I've finished scouting out the area, and... you pig!
Raynor: What! I haven't even said anything to you yet.
Kerrigan: Yeah, but you were thinking it.
I... *sigh* can't imagine this conversation without the Kerrigan vocals I've come to appreciate. I feel like I'm twelve begging mommy for a candy bar or to go visit a family member across the nation, but...
Right now it feels like I was going to go visit my aunt to find she'd died a year ago and only now is my uncle telling me.
I have a feeling she'll suit the role, at least I hope she will. Anyway, glad to see Clotworthy returning as Raynor, it would have been terrible to have to replace him.
@Placentasaurus: This is totally true at some level. I haven't played StarCraft in years, but I can still hear that voice easily. (Of course, Raynor, Mengsk and others are likewise burned into memory as well.)
I just wish there could have been a Saving Lieutenant Kerrigan option in the campaign---I've loathed the "Emperor" for oh, eleven years at this point as a result of that little stunt. Oh, to reverse the Zerg process and have a chipper Ghost back on your team.
Tricia Helfer for the win, though. She's got a good voice and apparently is good at being a voice actress. I suppose I'm sold on this game as soon as it comes out.
Actually I think her voice will be perfect once they throw in the usual zerg overlays. I'm looking forward to hearing how it comes out. Though more than anything I just want to play the damn game already!
Although I am sad to see that Campbell has been officially replaced at least we know for certain who will be voicing Kerrigan.
All the rumors and uncertainty over the past few months have had me very nervous. I mean at one time they were talking about replacing Robert Clotworthy as the voice of Raynor... I just couldn't imagine anyone other than him voicing one of my favorite video games heroes of all time.
It will probably be mentioned repeatedly but the fact that Kerrigan has been changed so much by becoming part of the swarm partially excuses the change in her voice.
@wtf_G: My thoughts exactly. Cpryd001 must find that thought surpirsing, while the rest of the fucking world has acknowledged it for the last 20 years.
Really, all I know Helfer as is Number Six from BSG. If her performance is half as good as on that show, then I'm seriously stoked for voice work in this game.
This actually isn't that bad, I think she has a nice voice that will fit the role. Still would have preferred the original but at least they did not pick someone with a bad voice.
Almost makes up for Glynnis Talken Campbell getting booted from voicing Kerrigan again....almost.
Can anyone tell me why Robert Clotworthy and James Harper would be returning as Jim Raynor and Arcturus Mengsk but Glynnis Talken Campbell not returning as Kerrigan? Earlier article quotes her as saying Blizzard decided to go another direction with the Kerrigan character but was there an official reason I missed?
Your comment was personified by that Blizzcon panel. When the internet found out that Glynnis would not be repeating her role as Kerrigan there was RAAAAGE.
So, I am watching the Blizzcon stream and I say to myself "no matter who walks out onto this stage they are going to get their asses booed off" but then... its freaking Caprica 6 from BSG. And of course no one Boos, some people even clap.
What is the moral of this story? Hot chicks win.
Official reason you ask? Tricia Helfer is a beloved sci-fi hot lady and does great voices. And Metzen wanted the opportunity to spend lots of time with her and try and get in her pants. (Okay maybe that isn't official.)

She'll always be Kerrigan.
But here's to a success at the VA.

I cannot wait until they announce a release date
