Speech in level entrance screens (+2)

So yeah, cutscenes with voice and everything are nice, but we're still stuck with just text on the level entrance screens. It might be worth considering adding the option of having an actual narrator.

Bonus points for including a generic phone menu style "Entrance...twenty...three" for the default entrances.

This could probably be implemented best by attaching a sound file of some sort to the entrance text, which could either be a narration or some other sound (possibly background noise)

I can imagine , that Beethro would talk in beginning of level where there is telled more storyline orsomtehing.

"I entered to dungeon , deep and dank one. Could not see anything , not even shiny sword in my hand. Hope I can see soon. Don't want get eated by roaches! And wheres Halph? Haven't see him for long time..."

Would be cool, but keep in mind that this would probably also mean some delays in releasing new games. It´s more effort to record all this extra text.

Some voiced Cut Scenes showing drawn pictures would be nice though.

Actually, since the entire script is sent at the same time, no additional text would need to be recorded, it's all done at once.
