No way, its going to be a very traditional, down to earth and realistic dub that in order to sound more otherwordly is to be dubbed entirely by kidnapped Jarawa people whose first contact with the outside world will be the recording booth.

Ivalice is sort of like a parallel earth that's identical in every way except assless chaps are the height of fashion for some reason.

Assless chaps are the mark of a protagonist. Quick, find out who in FFXII has assless chaps. They're the true main character.

Woah, woah, let's not make this the best game ever here, slow down a little.

It would be the best game ever if all roles were voiced by Liam O'Brien, Jamieson Price, and Norio Wakamoto with a Japanese to English dictionary.

Its just how Ivalice sounds, ok? Due to the magic in the air sound travels differently as though it were stuck inside a soup can attached to a string. Ugh, read the art book.

If FFXV has a localization half as good as FFXII then it'll be great.

I like Mr. O'Brien but I'd rather have all voices done by Michael Bell. Hell, bring Simon Templeman back and give him a proper role. Also get Richard Doyle and Paul Lukather. With almost the entire cast of Legacy of Kain, it would be the best dubbed FF by a mile.

Ingway Liam O'Brian is basically the best, and even if he doesn't voice everyone I hope he voices someone in XV.

In order to make up for the fact that the cast is heavily masculine all the voice actors will be women and the personality traits for the men will each be harem anime stereotypes.

Paracelsus posted:I thought Caius Ballad was a bit overacted and had a bit of British in his voice, I don't know if that counts as fangasming. It was rather quintessentially FF though. WHat a coincidence! We were just talking about Star Ocean: The Last Hope the other day and you get to hear her twice in that game alone. ...hehehe... Een I would never try to defend Welch. That's not Bailey's fault of course but I am kinda sick of her. Well her sultry women voice for Lust and Cloud of Darkness is nice but she shouldn't voice kids or younger characters. I really can't stand her then.

She's a pretty cool VA no doubt. It's just that, as a fan of anime, I hear her an awful lot. That is kind of true for many dub VAs but some voice actors and actresses wear on your nerves faster than others. She was pretty good as Lust in Fullmetal Alchemist. Brotherhood was kinda weaker for having so little Bailey Lust because canon Lust was a bland piece of fanservice and nothing more. I guess Father just wasn't very horny so the creature embodying his lust got almost no power or personality.

I hope SE keeps doing their thing with having a varied cast for the major characters and then anime VAs for some of the lesser characters.

It would be perfectly acceptable if they would just get John DiMaggio for every dude and Grey DeLisle for every gal. Or just have one of them be the voice of everyone. Either could pull it off.

Given that the odds are very low that they'll hire Team LOK to dub the game, I approve of this. Maybe not all the choices turned out well but at least SE is trying to diversify the dub field instead of just having Yuri Lowenthal, Johnny Yong Bosch, Crispin Freeman and Steven Blum dub all the main characters. As much as I like most of those guys, Square's tendency to give lesser known talent a chance to shine has paid off with positively perfect performances like Gabranth and Dr. Cid. Hell, Auron and Lulu wee pretty great too and I don't know who the hell they are.

Sorry if any of these questions are dumb or can be answered if I just keep playing, but in 12 IZJS, I've gotten enough licenses to where mist knacks are available for purchase. However, when I select one, it warns me that I can only pick 3 per character. After looking stuff up, I'm even more confused. Does this system work any differently from the regular game (which I haven't played, but most guides about it seem to be written with it in mind)? Also, how can you get to the squares lying off/diagonal the boards? I'm kind of hoping I can just breeze through this game without doing too much crazy hard side story stuff, because while I'm digging the characters and setting so far, I'm not particularly sure I like how action-y it is.
