Hi Tom.
I do see your point on tts voices in menus just being the audio equivolent
of text printed to the screen in a graphical game, rather than the sort of
sound you'd get in a cut scene, but I actually sort of liked the idea of
Angela Carter as an Ozy.
The fifth doctor had an asistant called Tegan Gevanka, who was a waitress on
an airliner that got lost in a wormhole. She was famous for being very loud
and irritated and not prone to screaming fits, indeed on at least one
occasion she gave an alien the one two with a steel bar, which is quite
something for doctor who (particularly with the fifth doctor who was the
most actively pcifist off all his encarnations).
That's likely why I sort of associate australians with being hard cases
which would be sort of fitting for a gun toting archaeologist, albeit on the
occasions I've met australians that isn't exactly true.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Hi Dark,
Lol. No, Angela Carter wasn't suppose to be Australian, but I didn't
see the voice of the game as being representative of her voice or
nationality. I just considered the voice of the game as the TTS
output. Nothing more and nothing less. I could have used Realspeak Tom
as the TTS output and just because the narrator was male didn't mean
the game character had to be male too.
Cheers!

Personally I didn't mind the australian voice in the game, albeit was a
little surprising given that I don't believe Angela carter was planned to
be
an ozy.
