Is that... Bambara voice acting? Out of all the civs that could have had voice acting, I never expected Mali to actually get their proper voiceset.
That's really, really awesome news, if it can be pulled off I mean.
Yes, it is. I actually sought out Bambara phrasebooks and basic dictionaries, but managed to construct written versions of most of the lines already. Only the declaration of war, the attacked line, the request, and the peaceful line are missing, but that's because Tomatekh hasn't written those lines for his diplomacy text yet, and often leaders' speech lines are based on that.
I checked the phonology, and you can easily recreate it if you use sounds from French or Portuguese. The grammar is pretty good though I didn't mull over it too much, since nobody is going to nitpick it anyway.
Wow, that's awesome. Though I think you should speak a tone or two deeper, to match the rather imposing leader model. Looking forward for more, and hopefully it can be integrated into the game somehow.
Yeah, I worried about that. I'm gonna see if it works, but I wrote down the lines in case it doesn't.
