      Are you disappointed, is it unworthy? I would regard it as a honoring worthy of the Sixth House and the Tribe Unmourned.

    I don't get it, Dagoth Ur only has like 15 lines in the entire game but the AI perfectly replicates his voice, it just fumbles on French and Italian words...

      It’s simple. Dagoth Ur, though he only has like 15 lines but those lines are all well spoken and properly annunciated, not to mention recorded in a studio environment. In other words, it’s easy to ai generate his voice bc only a few lines of clear spoken dialogue with no background noise is better than hundreds of lines where the audio is muddled and the speaker is ill spoken

      15 maybe in a single playthrough. Just for for meeting dagoth ur there are 9 variants and nearly every other interaction has 2 to 4 variants you will not hear in one game.

      Wait, the voice is AI generated? I've enjoyed three or so of these audiobooks thinking it was someone actually reading out loud with a really good voice modulator.

    The way he raises his voice when there’s immense action or great epiphany is quite impressive, I wonder how AI knows when the scene is meant to be exciting or climactic?

    Love this. Color out of space is always better than I remember when I hear it.
    It's weird how close it is to describing radiation poisoning and stuff like that.
    It goes a little further with flairs of fantasy, but I kind of wonder how Lovecraft was inspired for this story, if radiation poisoning had happened to some parts in history and he was adapting a story from that.

      @@co.1157 I'm pretty sure they do. I could be wrong. But they do lose mass, since a half life is the measurement of how long it takes for a material to lose half of it's mass radiating it away. I've always assumed that it means a radioactive material will actually get smaller since it will decay into radiation over time.
