The "Official" Voice Actor Speculation Thread

Don't wanna half dub? Listen to the Japanese audio ;)

[Beedlebud]

Wonderful. Censorship, another half-dub, what's next?

WORLD DOMINATION!

[Kiyo]

We're lucky this game even got localized. Be grateful and support it for future titles and/or stop complaining.

We're going to send someone to personally spit in your soup

Especially since I'm assuming that, even if you guys didn't leave the JP voices in, you still wouldn't be able to get a full dub due to the budget and the like...I dunno how much it costs to use the JP voices, but I think there'd be a bigger outcry if you guys didn't put the original voices in

Seriously though, LAMV, you might be overreacting a bit

[Rednal]

The Prinnies already did that.

It's just that nobody noticed, figuring them for mascots, and business went on as usual...


@Darc: That's what I just said. XD

Ahh, I just skimmed...sorry

I'd have to stop buying NISA games, and that'd fucking suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

My point exactly...NISA's fanbase consists of 3 sides: Those that prefer English, those that prefer the original Japanese, and those that really don't care...this way, at least they please all of them, instead of just 2

Sure, I'd love it if they could fully dub these games, but it isn't required, since I can read as well...and it's not like non-voiced scenes are gonna auto-skip on me

[neonie]

Just as a preference, I'd rather listen to no voice at all then the English dub. But there's no way I could support a game where NISA took the Japanese audio out, they've been leaving it in for us for so long, and I consider it such an awesome consideration for their fanbase, that them taking it out would be something where I would ultimately have to put my foot down. I just couldn't do it. As an anime lover and seiyuu otaku, I'd have a deep deep sad.

I'm just happy its getting an english dub! I wonder when we'll find out the VAs!!

Exactly, and luckily, NISA has quality dubs...as for when...I'm assuming sometime next month or so...

[Rednal]

I prefer English voices for games with an emphasis on comedy (Disgaea, Mugen Souls, Neptunia, etc.). I don't care when it comes to other games (Agarest, others).

*Shrugs*

I'm glad to get some English, anyway. And also more trailers and stuff up on the website; I'm very excited to hear English voices all proper-like.

Now that's just mean.

How nice. What's the point of forums if people aren't allowed to speak their mind?

EDIT: And maybe I am overreacting a bit. If there were no censoring going on and we just had the half-dub, I would just go "meh, it's typical." However, the whole controversy PLUS the ironic LE items PLUS the half-dub just pile up on the frustrations. And posts like Kiyo really piss me off, I was going to say worse to them but I decided to hold back.

Crazy talk. Next you're going to suggest we're allowed to disagree with NISA's decisions. I mean, really. They're perfect.

Obviously.

[Kiyo]

Lmao! Dude... you are definitely overreacting. Can you not see that NISA is doing all of us a favor by translating this game? If you have a problem with it then buy the Japanese game.

The forums are definitely a place to speak you mind... with suggestions and the like, however I don't think complaining is going to solve anything. If you have a problem with the service they are providing, you've let them know. But mindless whining isn't going to get you a better product. Constructive criticism and strongly supporting them even in their darkest hour is the best way to show them that you care and would like a better localized experience.

Anyway, I'm done on this subject of being grateful and what not.

Thanks NISA for bringing over a game I really wanted to play! I understand your situation and support your effort.
