Are you guys playing with Japanese or English voices?
Gotta say some of the voices sound weird as hell in english, like when you have an anime character speaking with a british or Scottish accent.

To be fair, a lot of the characters' names are very European, so I don't know what you expected.

Japanese audio for me.

Didnt expect the guy with 3 eyes, skirt, fishnets and purple hair to sound like William Wallace.

Well it's at least 1000 years of the war of devastation so things change like accents and the amount of eyeballs you have 🤷‍♂️

They may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR THIRD EYES!

The English VO is some of the best I've heard in a video game. I usually use the dub anyway, but especially in this case I couldn't fathom playing without it.
You say "anime characters", but I judge it by the character's actual in-universe lore, and the characters, even in Japanese, have medieval Europe-inspired names...

English. Dont care what anyone says its better than the same old man or high pitched bing bong every line of dialogue

When a character looks as I described its patently ridiculous for him to sound like a scottsman, regardless of what he is named, no matter the mental gymnastics you try to apply to it.

English localization sucks btw, what they say in Japanese is different to the translation in quite a few cases.

JP audio first, ENG audio NG+.

I’m torn.
It’s the first game where I like both, and apparently Altus often does English voice acting very well.

Overall I prefer Japanese in Japanese games. But the English voice acting is so good. For example English strohl, hulkenberg, Louis, etc are awesome. But I dislike some of the other characters esp when they use the Scottish accent, it sounds a little ridiculous.

Japanese of course.

Despite the european look, most characters act like Asian and some races are straight out Asian references (elda, eugief and muskari).

Not characters like Strohl or Hulkenberg or Louis.

Nobles and samurai exist in Japan.
