German Spoken Quests: Horde

Horde-only quest dialogue, voiced in German. Pair it with the Shared pack. Needs Spoken Player.

This is the German audio pack for Horde quest dialogue: the quests only a Horde character can take, voiced in German.

You need two more addons for this to do anything:

  1. Spoken Player — the player. Without it no pack plays.
  2. German Spoken Quests: Shared — the quests both factions can take, including everything in the neutral hubs like Booty Bay and Gadgetzan. Without it a Horde character hears only part of their quests.

The packs

Pack Holds
Alliance Alliance-only quests
Horde Horde-only quests this pack
Shared quests both factions can take
Gossip NPC gossip chatter

Gossip — the chatter NPCs give you when you talk to them without a quest — is optional on top.

Why the pack is split

The whole thing is a large download, and a good part of it is dialogue your character can never reach. A quest belongs to a side when its questgiver does: an NPC hostile to the Alliance and friendly to the Horde hands out Horde quests. Neutral givers land in the Shared pack, so their quests play for everyone.

Voiced with care

  • Voices fit the character, not just race and gender: a dwarf warrior and a dwarf official don't sound alike.
  • A narrator reads quests from objects such as wanted posters, and stage directions like <Advisor Belgrum opens the note.>
  • Sounds are performed, not spelled out: *hic* is a hiccup, not "asterisk hic asterisk".
  • Names and places are pronounced right, from a pronunciation dictionary.
  • A more natural performance throughout.

Contributing

Bugs. Something wrong with a line, a wrong voice, a mispronounced name or a broken quest? Press the bug button on the subtitle or the window while the line plays. It hands you a short link to that exact line; the page has the text, the audio and a form.

Missing lines and corrections. When Spoken has no voice for something on screen, it shows a Contribute button that hands you a link carrying the game's text; open it and press Send. Or turn on Gather missing lines automatically in the settings, play as usual, then upload SavedVariables/SpokenContributions.lua at spoken.rusty.one/contribute. Text that reads wrong can be corrected the same way. Nothing leaves your game until you send it yourself.

Code. The addon is open source on GitHub: issues and pull requests are welcome.
