How to get US Kent!
By Diabetic Dan
This guide tells you how to get the FANTASTIC USA voice version of Kent with your purchase.

The download takes a while, but it's worth it. I promise the game will be more enjoyable via the 90's burnout Kent,
rather than the flamboyant "Hey, it's calculon!" guy voice if you ever watched futurama.

Or alternately if you don't want to go through the GOG.com site

Following the directions in the ReadMe, you should have no issue (The command prompt will stay open until it tells you what to do, "ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY COMMAND PROMPT!)

You can get the subtitles changed too, I found the solution in this post:

Thanks again for this awesome patch. Normality is a wonderful memory from my childhood and I replay it every once in a while. It's great to have the Feldman version, which is the version I played as a kid.

I've reuploaded the patch to archive.org just so it won't get lost https://archive.org/details/Normality-US-voices-patch

I'm the original author of the GoG patch (10 years ago!) and was weirdly thinking about this game again.

Just to provide what I know of the history in relation to some comments here:

The game was originally created by a UK developer (Gremlin Interactive) and only had 3 credited voice actors (and possibly some uncredited amateurs). Gremlin self-published the game in the UK, but shopped it around to other publishers to handle publishing in different countries. Interplay decided the game could be successful in the US, but figured it needed more varied/better voice talent and got Feldman and bunch of professional voice actors to rerecord the game.

Some lines were rewritten but the subtitles were not updated. There are also like 2 - 3 lines in the US version that are missing where someone probably just made a mistake and those line never got recorded. Again that was always a problem in the US. Both of these issues were in the original US release, they are not a bug with the patch.

@Kaidis Yes, that's the US version. I think they chose an English actor for the UK version for reasons of relatability.

I remember the voice being Corey Feldman when I played it back in the 90's

Yeah, the US voices are better but the script differences reveal different pieces of information, the original UK script actually has more information in it. Some minor lines aren't voiced as a result though, such as when looking at the cracker in the mall, don't know if this also happens in the UK version.
