Forum:Birth by Sleep English Voice Cast

I saw the trailer, HOWEVER, people harpin' on Terra's and Aqua's English voices might wanna look at the other new gameplay vids featured on the website, which sound much better

As for Vanitas, I was hooked. Aqua was fine and I really like Terra's and Erauqs' voices. And remember two things: There's still time fore rehearsing and you're going to grow into them eventually, so it doesn't really matter whining at this point. And yes, I am one of the people who accept MX's voice. The man's head is completely bald with visible veins and a bad hunch. I still wonder how Nimoy's voice doesn't work here, but that's because maybe unlike most people, I don't pretend to be some voice acting expert/critic. Kaihedgie 00:54, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Fair enough, but I'd just like to briefly point out that in a story-based game, it doesn't matter at all if the battle grunts sound fine. The actor should be able to, you know, act and carry the cutscene. Aqua's VA is the only one I have an actual problem with, and it's a big one. She's atrocious. I hope you're right and she grows into the role or something, because right now she's unbearable.00:59, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

So now pretty much watching the trailer multiple times allows people to grow into the voices.

Still, those complaining about Aqua: thumb|300px|right

Like I said, in a game with storyline cutscenes, being able to make good battle quotes doesn't count for crap. I actually like Aqua's voice when I first heard her voice in that demo, but her voice in the trailer is horrible. You know how when some people are reading books out loud and they just half try to make the voice sound right? This VA doesn't even sound like she's doing that. Maybe it's because they didn't show them the scenes or something, but whatever the reason, it's just not tolerable. By the way Drake, this is the demo from before the trailer. It's better, but not by much. She still sounds like she's barely trying.01:36, June 16, 2010 (UTC)

Not to be offensive or anything but: do you have to be such a killjoy? x: Kaihedgie 03:56, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. For the amount of money I've put into this franchise, as well as FF, I expect them to hire directors who are at least as dedicated as those for a cheap anime. This is honestly pathetic voice acting, and should not be occurring in one of a multi-million dollar, international game franchise's flagship series. Glorious  CHAOS!  04:20, June 16, 2010 (UTC)
