Know what I miss? The fully voiced rules from Williams Collection disc version.

Maybe I'm the only one Anyway, would be a nice addition.

While cool, there are a plethora of other features and tweaks I'd rather see first.

 

[Shaneus]

Agreed, but I'd rather see something less labour-intensive implemented, like a link or an embedded video to a PAPA.tv tutorial.

That was a cool feature from PHoF to have somebody explain the rules with a voice. However, that would mean FS would need extra money to pay somebody to do the voicing. For them, it's cheaper and easier just not to voice out the rules for each table.

Especially when you consider the pages of instructions on most of the PHOF tables don't go much higher than around 100 and you have some tables that exceed 350, 400 or more pages. That's already huge and adding voiceover to that? Lots of time to spend on recording, lots of data space being used and a lot more hours of labor you have to pay for.

They should have the voice from Centaur do all the instructions.

That would be worth all the stuff I mentioned as cons to doing the voice work.

Sweet. THE advertising voice of the 70s & 80s.

I don't think the added cost of reading hundreds of lines for every new table released would be justified by its value.

If he's still alive FarSight should hire Casey Kasem to do the instruction voice overs.

He certainly does live on but I think he's a DJ for 70s on 7 now. He does have a great voice that could definitely work well for instructions.

Heh. Personally, I was satisfied with the voiceover guy from Williams Collection.

Frankly, I found him a little too cheerful. Maybe a bit condescending, in a AM radio dj sorta way.
