Great job on the OP! Been a while but it finally came through. I recall seeing an interview where IFI admitted they have no clue how to localize the meme in the zombies game and just gave up. Going from there... the gently caress is a DQN? Looking it up, it just means internet dumbass? Also, while I love her VA, Tamsoft, Capcom and MAGES. all sound the exact same now and it's getting a bit silly. Enjoying the fake b-movie scenes though.

Ironically, RB2's English dub is on par with the Japanese track. The full story is voiced in both, but optional events are also silent in both. Same with Noire I think? V and RB3 are probably the least dubbed in English, especially the latter. I know Blanc had a different voice director working on it if that matters. It was some Aniplex guy. Maybe that explains some of the differences. EDIT: Specifically it's the dude who worked on Kill La Kill's English dub. Previously it was always Tony Oliver (Bang from BlazBlue, Lupin III, etc).

And there's a couple more from limited anime editions that go for hundreds of dollars these days. Takoluka posted:I did not know that! I have to say, though, that Blanc probably has some of the best voice direction and acting I've heard in the franchise thus far. I imagine it helps that the VAs have done these roles so many times that it's second nature to them. Erin Fitzgerald's Noire is not just great but fantastic this time around, and while Tamsoft has the weakest voice work (oh, C-Sha), she's still really good. Even Melissa Fahn's Neptune feels more "natural" in this installment, and she says "Gotta go fast!" in battle when she dashes. I remember the voice work in Kill La Kill's dub being pretty great, so I'm glad that we're getting that kind of quality in Nep games. That said, Tony Oliver also does great work too. I really wish Amanda Miller (Tamsoft, C-Sha) would emote more. She's got a great voice but she's too monotone.

Nah, VII isn't 1:1. It's still more than RB3 and maybe RB1 though, and they at least make sure the more story focused scenes are voiced for the most part. But most skits aren't. Like takoluka said, it's been the case since Mk2, excluding spinoffs and Blanc. DLC characters are also silent in English outside of battles, except in the original Victory (but not RB3). It's a gripe I've had forever but sadly one I've come to accept. I guess it beats not getting a dub at all like some games, although I can't think of many games in the same boat outside of Atelier.

Oh, so that's why some people reported the DLC characters didn't have scenes. Given they released so far after the game, most people would probably on their NG+ runs, and you wouldn't think carrying over characters would stop new DLC cutscenes from spawning.

It's just good to not have shadowy silhouettes used for all the NPCs anymore. Even if the portraits are just generic kids and such. I think the one use of a shadowy silhouette in VII is during an important flashback and it works there. All this talk reminded me, one of the jokes in VII flew over my head until yesterday when I saw this commercial compilation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPktjDHO0Y0 Specifically the part with the wheelbarrow, that's directly referenced in game. I can't really remember the US advertising for Dreamcast though, other than 9/9/99 and "IT THINKS, IT'S ALIVE", but I distinctly remember a trailer with the video game characters shown living inside the console and another with a dystopian looking city, so I wonder if those were intentional references too.

I suspected the teaser was originally an FFF thing, and it looks like I wasn't far off now since the silhouette changed to Tiara. Could be a crossover title. That or some sort of CH anniversary thing? Dehry posted:They managed to connect all the lore from mk2 to V-II (there's not a whole lot in the Hyperdimension in Victory) which was interesting.

They seem to pop out fully formed and as is, but Noire does make reference to some sort of succession ceremony in her dream in VII. If there's any reason for them to be ageless, it's probably either money or character popularity concerns.

Oh yeah, I recall seeing CH freaking out over how good western sales were (1 million+) to the point that only now will they finally sell the original games on PC. What a bizarre restriction, good for fans there though. As for the hats well... the limited stock they had at conventions immediately sold out which is why they decided to make more when they saw how popular they were. At least this beats the garbage that was the Watchdogs' "ICONIC CAP" which sold at $30.

It's more of a developer event isn't it? Or maybe they had a restriction on pictures given they blurred their own content. I do wonder what the main dev team is doing right now given this is a spinoff and the only other game is on mobile. Their current wave of Vita games is done, and Felistella isn't working on anything right now either. The gap between V and VII was 2012 to 2015 so I wonder if we'll hear anything about a new mainline installment before next year.

It's a free Vita card game so I assume they're just milking the fanservice aspect extra hard. It'll probably die in a year without being localized anyway (unless they port it or something).

Yeah, Uzume was playable in Blanc so that's something at least. Also VIIR is a VII remake with added VR scenes and what the hell is Mizuno smoking quote:PlayStation VR support was added in response user demand. Its still an RPG, so they had to think about how to express it. I know they like to rerelease stuff nonstop but jeez at least let it simmer a bit.

I think RB2 had near 1:1 ratio of English to Japanese voiced dialogue. RB3 was the worst by far with some major plot scenes being undubbed compared to Victory, as well as all the original DLC character scenes. You could easily check this on PC because it let you switch voice tracks on the fly mid cutscene. VII was a good middle of the road but you can check the difference just by looking in the game's folder and comparing the size of the audio files. I forgot what it was labelled but there was one file specifically for cutscenes with a .jp and .eng version with the latter being smaller. I think all the side games are fully dubbed though. PP, Noire, U, Sega... They're all pretty small scope. Oh and Blanc too, minus the Backstage Talk scenes that automatically switch to Japanese, which just makes the whole "Everyone is pretending to be actors" concept more amusing.

The dub enhances a lot of things really: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OZlT01rCDtA I kinda saw this Noire situation coming what with the VA strike. Just the other day I saw something about the Resident Evil 2 remake not reusing any of the current or old RE actors despite contacting the actors and just replacing everyone with a non union cast. And if Capcom aren't sparing expenses no way is IFI gonna do so. Anyway I trust the voice direction to salvage Noire (unless they dig up some really bad VA), I doubt they'll change studios anytime soon despite the VA strike.
