Some dub voice lines sound AI Generated?

[Crow ✦]

Before i say anything i just wanna mention I've been loving the game so far but i swear certain voice lines have really off putting delivery and i genuinely cannot shake it off my mind. Certain lines from Vegeta sound a bit weird and one that was really glaring was Metal Cooler's intro where he was kinda word vomiting and it sounds really unnatural. I've also heard some people mention Perfect Cell sounding like his lines were AI generated but im not sure. I'm not trying to nitpick or anything but im just a bit concerned.

i also noticed that kamehameha's have very little "Strength" put into them, the voice actor is just kind of saying the word without putting very much effort into it, i'm not sure if this is the case with the original version

[Mister Father]

Yeah, a lot of the lines are delivered in a very lifeless fashion. Emphasis on some words that make no sense.

Not sure if it's just an issue with the voice direction or what though.

its so weird because certain lines sound REALLY good then others feel like they were half asleep in the booth

More like "So whats the problem when they use ai?" Dont want to be rude but I really dont see the problem

I think the voice actors are just getting old. For example; the actors that voice Vegeta and Trunks have a rasp to their voice that was not there. It lacks strength and it often sounds weird. The way Trunks sounds when charging up his ki, sounds like nails to a chalkboard. I don't know... maybe it's just me.

Yeah, some of it sounds pretty bad. Dunno what they were thinking. I just use the japanese voices instead.

I doubt it. Sean Schemmel said himself that he put around 80 hours of voice line work in the game, and im sure its about the same with all of the voice actors. The problem with having THAT many voice lines is that at some point you are going to get one that doesnt sound like it fits a specific move, especially considering the fact that Sean alone probably had to record "Kamehameha" about 500 times.

you don't see the problem in AI generating voicelines for a $70 game?

oh wait, AI pfp... figures

No I don't see the problem but let me explain why. I know AI is controverse but I think its a good thing. It's nothing bad its just depends on how you use it. For example here we don't know if they used AI why they did it. Obviously they dont intend to take the roles and money away from the voice actors. Maybe few didnt wanted to voice act for the game or others dont have time or are too old. You either dont know if the voiceactors gave permission or if they dont.
And when we look at AI away from this game its a cool and useful thing. Here the same yes it can be used for bad things but same for weapons or a computer with internet (hacking) its the human who do bad things and not the program/weapon/AI
I personally think we will benefit alot from AI in the future. And the people who say AI is bad are just not able to see the whole thing. I mean back then when the internet was new people said its bad. When I was a kid people said videogames make children stupid and now its proven that its wrong and it can help in different ways.
Yeah even before the internet was a thing people said that kids who read to often books are considered as unable to socialize. So back then books were a bad thing.

I hope you know what I wanna to say.

When you feel bad about to pay 70 bucks for a game wehre ai was used its your thing and I respect it. I personally dont care because I think the game is still great and I have a lot of fun with it.

Besides it doesnt matter if ai is used or not 70 bucks is way to expensive for a game in general. (I paid 50 bucks)

A.I is an insult to every form of art that it miserably attempts to emulate. Nevermind the years and decades artists dedicate to their craft, just so someone can input some prompts and vomit some abomination that is not even original, but a composition of various pieces of existing media. Real art, whatever form it takes, requires skill, practice, self-criticism, the ability to get out of your comfort zone improve, and innate talent. Something that A.I generators will always lack.

I have nothing against new technologies, and A.I is a pretty interesting one and people are free to use it however they please in a private setting. But when you take talent and hard work away, replace it with some random computer prompt and then have the ballz to charge money for it, then there is definitely a problem.

I just wrote a comment why I dont think that AI is bad. AI is more than "Art theft" besides AI can be used to reconstruct portraits or even sculptures when they get distroyed in the future. So like I said in the comment before which I just wrote a minute ago it depends on the people what they use it for and not the program itself. A computer with internet is not bad even you can hack others with it. Its the person who uses it.

And like I said too you dont know if they take anything away. Could be that the voiceactors gave permission because they were to busy or to old or didnt wanted to do it. So we dont know the whole picture.
