OP's quote
"Do the voices sound mediocre and like garbled mess? Or do they sound like voices that convey superb and powerful personalities?"
Your starting voices in your first vid sound like a good place to start for grins and giggles .
Even then it would still take a lot of work to even approach what people in that genre use for those type of sounds ..
IMHO , I think you took it way too far in your second vid ....
my 02 cents,
Kenny
What went wrong in my altered version of that speech? Could you explain why those dimensional sounding voices don't sound good to you at all? What could I have done to make it sound right?
Are you serious ? If you are , fine , then I will state my case 
The altered voices are way too garbled , they lack clarity , there are simply too many artifacts and they are not even being played within the context of the intended MEDIA ( gaming environment w sounds ) they are there to support ...
Kenny
Thanks for your input. However, to me, they sound just fine. But then again, my brain might have error correction features so that when I listen to something that has many flaws, my brain corrects those flaws. So, from my perspective, I see something great and flawless. But from your perspective and from the perspective of many others, they will see the flaws plain as day.
I'm not looking for flaws ...you asked a question in your own thread ..
"Do the voices sound mediocre and like garbled mess? Or do they sound like voices that convey superb and powerful personalities?"
I happened to give you my answer ...if you don't like what I had to say don't take it personal ...just move on
Kenny
What you pointed out is the very definition of flaws. You said that there were many artifacts and that the voices sounded garbled and unclear. I was pointing out that I lack the ability to see that perhaps due to the fact that my mind corrects those flaws so that I cannot see them.
IMHO , That's just the way The Brain works ...
FWIW, There is a popular cable TV show where your exact point is brought up in each and every episode
http://www.pbs.org/show/brain-david-eagleman/ My comments were more directed at the only way to really know how your sounds are gonna gel or not gel would be to use them in a production where they are combined with all the missing production elements you would need in the first place to have a finished production ...
a still picture of a cartoon character w vocal sound effects does not make a full on multi media production
