Actually, eloquence sounds quite human to me. that can't be good huh? lol.
The voice wouldn't work for a game such as what Thomas is developing, but
for a screen reader there's no better voice than eloquence. the response
time is instantaneous, and this is definitely not the case with the more
natural sounding voices.

That would be my first question. Why, when there are so many better voices
out there, would anyone want to use such a monotonous voice like
Eloquence?

Hi Bryan,
Smile. I know. I was just curious as to why someone would want Eloquence
in a game. It would seam to me to be the last choice anyone would pick
for a game like MOTA which happens to be very character driven. While I
am not all that fond of using synths for scenes, menus, etc the more
realistic sounding the voice the better.

OhI realize that. All I was saying was that the only reason I even
bother with Eloquence for my screen reader is because of its response
time. I've already experienced the way it sounds in some of Jim's games.
It sort of fits there but it would be horribly out of place in a game
like MOTA.
