Excellent.
It’s uncanny how close to the Real barney that mofo sounds.
A great out of context quote: “We don’t want people thinking they’ll wake up one morning and see Black Mesa released.”
I think 66% of the fans and 185% of the trolls still think it this way. :jizz:
Anyway, when I’ll be able, I’ll listen this asap, than again and again.
Listened to the whole thing. Nice to hear some more background details. Also, the voice-acting you have done is fan-tas-tic! I tip my hat.
Very interesting Steamcast alltogether, thanks for taking the time for this guys! 
I can’t quite understand what he says on 0:50:56: “It’s a lot of polishing and retooling and Valve is … on playtesting”
Quotes taken out of context are especially funny when they are misquoted.
I said: “wake up tomorrow”, not “one morning”.
CygNus, I said Valve is very adamant about playtesting. That wasn’t meant to sound like Valve is overseeing any aspect of our project.
They aren’t.
I meant the Black Mesa team is trying to put an emphasis on playtesting in the same way as Valve.
Taking quotes out of context is what we do best around here! Say, was there any chance of getting those new radioplays uploaded in decent quality for our listening pleasure?
I’d love to get those up there, but I don’t have access to the youtube account… Hopefully once this interview gets polished up and ‘officially’ released by the steamcast crew we can upload those videos in tandem.
I can get you a new YouTube account…
edit: sorry, I’m a little stoned on some medicine right now. I just figured out what you’re saying.
Ok thx, I didn’t know the word “adamant” before. Now I get what it means.
“Maybe we can reason with it!”
Great interview, thanks!
Made me really excited about Black Mesa again, people will be so overwhelmed by the quality of it when it’s released
Awesome! May I playtest?
Sure, since you’ve been such a loyal community member for so long and nothing if not trustworthy and accommodating.
You need to have good relations with valve games.
Really liked the cast. Renews my hope in this project. And I already knew from the trailer that you have got an excellent voice actor for the G-Man, but jeez, the scientist and Barney. I mean the guy (I forgot his name) could as well be the voice actor that Valve has employed for Barney.
But please keep in mind:
Perfection is something that does not exist, so at least try to release this thing some time in the future instead of playtesting it to death. The community will bitch and whine about this anyway.
But what is even more astonishing is that this thread is not full of shit posting. Either Raminator is doing an excellent job deleting all the spam or the community got tired.
great interview, guys.
Finally some fresh lines to replace that old ModDB Developer Banter interview. It’s been on my MP3 player for 2 years consecutively & I’d listened it to death.
I’m very appreciative of you finding & taking the time to this interview. Thanks!
This has been the best thing to ever happen in a long time, makes my one thread claiming this to be dead look damn dumb, which is a fucking good thing.
Great stuff. The voicework is all sounding really awesome.
