ReedTien Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I don't like any of the English voices, I'm far too used to the superior Japanese ones. D| For me, Inigo's is probably the worst. If he were about 15 years older, the stupidly deep voice might have suited him. I just can't stand hearing it. I tell you, if this game didn't have a Japanese voice option, I'd import so fast... This is basically what I was going to say! Most of the English ones are -okay- but the Japanese ones are perfect IMO. Inigo's and Gregor's English voices are the most cringe-worthy of all...

singularity Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Compare Nah's Eng voice with Nah's Jap voice. In Jap Nah sounds like a loli. In Eng Nah sounds way more mature. Eng Nah > Jap Nah for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parrhesia Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I speak English. I have no intention of listening to the voices in a language I cannot understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shengar Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Have yet to try the Japanese dub, but so far the english one is very satisfying in quality. Especially Gregor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samias Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 My only gripe with the English voices is the lack of a higher pitched Avatar for the small body, and female Morgan. Some voices that I liked less, like Cynthia, have grown on me as I play longer. Even hammy voices like Virion are executed with elegance, unlike say, the Disgaea series (man I really hate the voice acting in those games). Personally I like Olivia's "STOP STARING", since it matches the cut-in face and the fact that she's about to lay down the hurt. I realize that Japanese Olivia is a lot more polite but I think it's sort of awkward to relate that politeness in a succinct manner in English without it sounding kind of spineless or insincere. I can see the appeal in the writing of Japanese Olivia, but that voice isn't really up my alley. Sumia is all sorts of awesome voice-wise. She definitely fits the cute archetype without sounding like she's taken a hit of helium. I couldn't stand how she originally sounded and I'm glad NOA didn't try to imitate the original voice acting direction. Like it or not, but things were definitely changed to appeal to the average North American. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Laufeyson Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 we need to do a best battle quote contest I dunno, "YEAH BLOOD" is pretty amazing. "One for the BARDS!" is also the best. "REPENT, SINNER!" <3333 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 "One for the BARDS!" is also the best. That is the quote that made me actually start liking Virion. "REPENT, SINNER!" <3333 <3333 indeed. I still don't get why people dislike Morgan (F)'s English voice. I love her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love her. I think it's because I had male Morgan on my team for so long, I got used to him. His voice seems a little more fitting to his body, but I guess it's just a case of not being used to his female counterpart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a native Japanese speaker is having trouble deciphering the dialogue, you know they did something wrong. The voice modulator effect in Japanese just... absolutely... sucked.

Samias Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I could understand only the last bit when Grima says "Your mother and father... are dead!", since the filter's reverb seemingly lets up at that point? The beginning though has way too much echo and reverb applied that I really couldn't even pick out words from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinigo Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 I'll admit I was wrong now; I really like the English voices, so long as I skip one or two when I'm grinding. Thanks for reintroducing me to the english voices, I couldn't live without gregor, or with Japanese Nah any longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
