JRPG But no Japanese Voice???

[RiTo]

Is this going to be full english voice acting?

[Kaldorei]

Hello yes it will be full english voice acting and there is good reasons to that, the first of all is that we can judge quality of english VA but not japanese VA and also we found very good english VA so we choose good english VA instead of low quality japanese VA

[Maravel552]

High quality VA is very expensive in Japanese, no need to put money on this if it's to make the game's price higher.

Usually low quality japanese VA = best english VA.

This is sadly true, the american voice acting industry is not really well developed (thats why they still rely on hollywood actors to dub "high end" stuff).

Well, unless this game's voice acting is on par with Metal Gear Solid or Resident Evil's, which i highly doubt it, its a lost sale from me.

Unless they are gonna use english VO, which i might give it a shot, since i havent seen anything terribly coming from there.

This is so true xD
I always mute English voicing.
Maybe Chinese voicing is less costly than English?
And If I can choose,I would prefer Chinese over English ^^

Wha? No japanese? But its a JRPG....*checks developer and sees its french* .....uhhhh. "J"RPG? Just call it an RPG lol....

All the anime weebs in this thread stop living in the 90's... English voice actors do good work these days.

Boooooo. Thanks for crushing my hopes and dreams.
To me English Voice Actors sounded stiff and and emotionless.
If you like English voice actor you might as well watch barbie movies

Never understood this at all in various forums like Valkyria Chronicles or other Jrpgs etc.
Can't imagine why I'd want to listen to a language that I have absolutely zero knowledge of over comprehensible english.. :S

Have multiple knowledge of languages is useful you might want to learn some for your own benefits

Greetings,

Thing is, original voice acting is what tends to stick the most to the original idea of what the dev team thought about. That's why people ask for japanese VA in JRPGs.

And regarding EoE, even if all the codes of jrpg are there, this game is developped by a
French indie team. And as the game is being shiped worldwide,
having good English voice acting is the best considering these will still stick to the original idea, while at same time being understandable to most of us.
