When <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Peter-Dinklage/">Peter Dinklage</a>, aka Tyrion Lannister, was announced as the voice of <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Destiny/">Destiny</a></em>'s voice-in-your-head companion, Ghost, fans went nuts. That is, until they heard the lines in the game's alpha build. Many complained that the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Game-of-Thrones/">Game of Thrones</a> star wasn't giving the role his best effort, and <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2014/06/20/remember-destiny-alpha-with-shirt-that-came-from-the-moon/">a bit of a meme</a> even formed from some particularly lackluster lines in the game's trailer.<br />
<br />
But now, it seems <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Bungie/">Bungie</a> listened to players and added a bit of effect to Dinklage's voice to spice things up a bit. The studio even went so far as to remove the now-internet-famous line, "That wizard came from the moon." Take a listen to the voiceover comparisons in the <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/471749/video-what-happened-to-peter-dinklages-voice-change-in-destiny/">CVG video</a> after the break to decide for yourself: did the mechanization of the audio improve things? Heck, it supposedly <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/what-britney-spears-sounds-like-without-auto-tune-2014-7">works for Britney Spears</a>, right?<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/07/18/destiny-beta-changes-dinklages-voice-after-criticism/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Destiny beta changes Dinklage's voice after criticism</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/07/18/destiny-beta-changes-dinklages-voice-after-criticism/">Destiny beta changes Dinklage's voice after criticism</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Fri, 18 Jul 2014 15:00:00 EST.

If you're a <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0944947/">Game of Thrones</a> fan, there's no denying the fact that Tyrion Lanister is one of the most enduring characters in both the books and the HBO series. Actor <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0227759/">Peter Dinklage</a> is to credit on the TV side of things, and now the seasoned vet is branching out to do some voice work in <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Bungie/">Bungie</a>'s <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Destiny/">Destiny</a></em> MMO.<br />
<br />
As your interactive companion, Ghost, Dinklage's voice (sans faux British accent) will be with your character wherever you go in the game. In addition to Dinklage, Bungie is <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/news/paul-mccartney-working-with-bungie-6386022">also working</a> with the iconic <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAh9x5-5ffo">Sir Paul McCartney</a> for the game's music.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/game-of-thrones-dinklage-to-voice-main-companion-in-destiny/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Game of Thrones' Dinklage to voice main companion in Destiny</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/game-of-thrones-dinklage-to-voice-main-companion-in-destiny/">Game of Thrones' Dinklage to voice main companion in Destiny</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Thu, 13 Jun 2013 11:00:00 EST.
