Turok: Evolution - Director's Cut (Unused Prototype Dialogue)

To celebrate the upcoming 21st anniversary of Turok: Evolution's release, here's a look at what could've been had Acclaim not rushed the developers. These are very low quality backup recordings that were extracted from a prototype Xbox build of the game. This audio comes from a point in development where there was going to be a larger focus on story and cutscenes.

Many of these elements can be seen in early design documents for the game. Djunn was going to have a much larger role and traveled with Tal'Set during the first chapter to provide a tutorial for the player. There was a village where Tal'Set could walk around and interact with villagers. Raptor riding was also to be a mechanic alongside the flying segments. There are also several differences even in dialog that was in the final game.

The dialogue appeared to be mostly in the correct order so with a few exceptions I kept everything in the order it was found. I contemplated adding music but the voice samples are so compressed I didn't want the music to potentially make it difficult to hear what is being said. Screenshots and concept art found online were used to help visualize what is happening but don't necessarily coincide with the dialogue pertaining to unused story sections.
