A group of us have been working on a narrated playthrough of the 1998 JRPG classic, Xenogears. It's designed with the visually impaired in mind. The first episode has been released. We have voice actors and a narrator. Any and all feedback would be fantastic. Thank you (youtu.be)

Awesome idea. I'm not prepared to get into it right now, but this seems like a great series to listen to before bed.

Thank you. They will be released every 3 weeks. We have some episodes in the hopper already done and working on more. Our goal is to finish the project, no matter how long it takes.

Even after all these years, the Playstation bootup sounds still send a shiver down my spine. They are the best.

It brings a flood of memories

Also we are always looking for voice talent. A lot of characters in this game. If you are interested, please let me know. We do have a discord, but discord isn't the most accessible. From my understanding.
So we are looking for another medium to bring in the visually impaired community. If you have any thoughts, let me know.

Hi there. First, I love this idea. There's a Xenogears audio drama project out there, but I'm not sure how far along it ever got. As this is easily one of my favorite videogame stories ever, I'd actually really love to be a part of this. I'm both a semi-professional voice actor and narrator. A producer of audio drama, sound designer and composer too, though that's less relevant here. I've actually done a lot of voice work — both character work and audio description for the Gorilla's Playthrough Youtube, which I will link below. There are actually a number of really talented voice actors working with him. I'll post my demo and the last episode of my Baulder's Gate audio description too. If you'd like to hear more, I have a number of other voice projects on my Sound Cloud as well. I Think this could be really fun. And who knows? If this works out, The Xenosaga series is another one which could desperately use some audio description.
I hope you like my stuff and could find me helpful. Please send me a PM if you do.

Some other potential voice talent here too, and I can tell you I normally have a much better recording setup than in this one. Still happy with the description though.

That's so funny, I was listening to your narration of Baulder's Gate this morning as I was practicing on how to get better at narrations. Send me a DM and I'll invite you to the discord. Would love to chat with you. Thanks for showing your interest to the project.
