hows the english dub?
Any good or just meh. Most english dubs ive heard the people couldn't be bothered to emote at all or they over-emote to try and "act" like an anime

The English dub is ok. BUT, there is far less voiced in the English Dub in comparison to the Japanese Dub. Maybe only 20%-25%. In the Japanese Dub everything except random NPC in the streets is fully voiced. Were in the English Dub lots of side characters have no voices in their scenes and conversations.
Even the main characters have a lot of "text" only scenes.

That works. It's not bad, but it's not gonna blow you away either, like, say, Trails of Cold Steel.
Some of the voices are good for english, but there's not as many lines.

The VA for Sophie is a perfect fit with her airhead personality. In fact, Christine Cabanos voicing her was the only reason I bought this game on PS4.

They actually sound like real people. At least as far as how much of it I heard before I got into the options and enabled japanese voices.

I think Sophie's VA is the worst in the game.

English voice over is always inferior to the original Japanese voice.

Yes, but it's not horrible here. Sophie and one other voice I heard were crap. Others were OK.

Japanese are taking 25 years old females to voice 10-18 year kids and Englishmen are using 35 years old hags to voice over the voice of 16 year kids 25 year olds have voiced. Eeeugh.

Seems legit. Maybe, Clown Reemus, you prefer something like Chaos Wars. :)

Seriously, anyone who complains about English dubbing in video games needs to be forced to listen to Chaos Wars. :)

I can't imagine anyone would hire old hags to play young people, but since Bart Simson is voiced by a woman now at the age of 59, I guess older people are good at voice acting, after all, huh, Clown. :)

Also, old hags are almost always over 50, just a FYI, you don't want to get behind on the times.
