Any era, doesnt matter. I just want to know of games where the actors knocked it out of the park.

Homeworld - Few lines. All brilliant. " Detecting no communication from anywhere in the system, not even beacons." - "We are being overwhelmed!"

Ixion - So many lines that would make no sense if they weren't being delivered with conviction and sincerity.

The semi-emotionless, or at least restrained emotional delivery of the lines always hit me really hard. They never screamed, never cried, but the matter of fact way they said Kharak was burning, and how you needed to hunt down the perpetrators… it was chilling. The emotion was somehow bleached out of the voices, yet so, so, so powerfully deep and present nonetheless… I don’t know how they managed it, but it was incredible.

I agree, that's the genuine beauty of it, their layered performance. We could hear their emotions as much as we could hear them hiding their emotions. Genius
