Voice acting as opposed to text.

I think the voice acting is fine as long as its in the new final fantasy games and as long as they sound good and suit the chracter.But if they do remakes of the old ones i don't want voices to be added because i already imagine what they sound like and if they didn't sound like that it would irritate me :irked:

Anyway, I didn't mind FFX(-2)'s voice acting too much. Tidus and Yuna's voice often sound like the actor/actress was embarrassed to do voice acting only, but hey, it wasn't all that bad.

I agree with you, If metal gear solid didnt have voice, it wouldnt have had the emotional effect as it does now; same goes for FFX (expecially Auron's pre-yunalesca battle speach) when theres voice, it just sets you to a whole another level of interpreting what they mean...I mean GREAT I mean GREAT graphics dont work too well with text base speaking...(Imagin Aurons speach while hes in motion with text popping up? doesnt feel right)

And the reason text worked with FF7 is bc the graphics are mediocre. I mean the characters didnt show any emotion, so why should the voice?

is it hard to change the game in order to synch the lips for different languages?i mean, i understand that there not ever going to completely match up, but i believe KH did a good job of doing this (i think) so how come FFX didn't get the same treatment?time constraints? :confused:

Hmmm... count me as just another fogey who likes his dialouge in square blue boxes. Or that brown, stonish color you can select in FFVI. That's ok too. But there's something about the blue boxes... kinda like a security blanket-not-every-thing-is-wierd-and-scary sort of feeling.

I agree with Del and Aeris on this one. I like how KH only had it at select points, and having an option to turn it off would be cool for those of us who don't find reading chorish.

I'd take either one, but text has one problem. While you're reading the text, it's hard to see a character's actions because you are reading the speech. Other than that, it's good.

I've always liked text better, I think one of the reasons is because I sometimes find it hard to read along with someone while they are speaking, even when I am in class and someone is reading something aloud, my mind wanders all over the place.

Voices are better. I mean really who doesn't fall in love with Yuna just by how she talks and the emotions she shows while talking????O_o? Or chuckle when Rikku makes a joke???
