How many of my fellow sub elitists are cringing at this? There better be a dual audio option available. I need my Suzuki, Miyano, Miyake, and Kakihara.

I guess I'm not really a sub elitist. I didn't find it that cringe worthy. Maybe I'm just numbed to it all, recalling all the past cringe worthy experiences I've had.

At the very least, I'm just glad I'm not hearing voices I've heard in everything else. Macho man sounds familiar, but the others don't really (except maybe the younger blonde guy, if I've heard his voice though it hasn't been in lots of stuff).


One thing I'm glad about is that this practically ensures that the game isn't going to be put on hold for 5 more years and renamed into Final Fantasy 16 or something.

Rule of thumb for FF English dubs is:
If it's not at least as good as or better than FFXII's English dub then it's shet.

It's not horrible, but it definitely doesn't stand out. The Noctis is actually pretty good imo.

It sounds fine, like every other FF game aside from 12 or Lightning in Dissidia.

As for dual audio, I dunno about that. I mean yea, if they do I sure wouldn't mind but the only FF game I've ever seen them release with the ability to even switch to the Japanese voice was Lightning Returns and I think was a limited time DLC? I dunno, I never got it.

Though I did hear Type 0 is getting a dual audio.

This is bad (prepare for your ears to bleed)


For more one can also see Baten Kaitos (the first one), and Shining Force Neo.

It was a shame that it was actually a pretty good game for everything other than the voice acting.

I wish I knew how all of those professional VAs in the comments got so good at determining what is and isn't good voice acting.

The trailers always make it look so amazing graphics-wise, but then when you play it it's not quite up to standards and it's disappointing.

That's something I find with a lot of games. Cinematics are really well done but the gameplay itself is not great.

Almost none of what you see in these trailers is cinematic.

The scenes were not a lot is going on, like there's discussion, or that one old man marching with an army are likely cinematic. But all the action and stuff is gameplay.

However the UI is there primarily to make it look like it's gameplay. The UI in the trailers will likely not be the final UI. They made that point early on.

Hey that that isnt tooo bad, i mean the characters look the part for the way they sound too me, but the sub definitely always wins, japanese just sounds so much better too me for some reason.

Square Enix rarely, if ever, does dual audio from my experience.

yup. it NEEDS dual audio. same for FF X/X-2 HD for PS4. dunno why the PS3 version doesnt have Jap audio as DLC like Lightning returns. Then again, after the stunt Square Enix pulled at PS Experience? I shouldnt be surprised.

Dubs ARE getting better but not enough. Its not he voice actors fault. Its the developers tryin to get English voice cast to sound Japanese. it just doesnt work lol It even affects amazing VA like Troy Baker (FF13), or Nolan North (resonance of fate)

They need to at least get the writing fixed for English versions with less grunting. its why MGS do it so well. MGS 2 and other MGS games are a good comparison.

David Hayter (Snakes Voice) helped out with the writing for the English translation. but not for MGS 2. he made a big difference!

Ni No Kuni is another example of great VA in english for Jap games. They REALLY need to take notes from them.

According to these comments there may be duel Audio, I've got no beef with playing dub. But gosh I'd prefer sub if possible. Still excited either way.
