Awesome character? Does she get awesome later on or something because I'd like her to die right now. It's been a long time since I've seen such an utterly annoying character who's so out of place with everything else in the game. I hate everything from her personality and her dialogue to her voice actress.Quote:

I don't really understand the hate of Vanille's voice acting. I really like her accent, it's like Australian but not which makes it more fantasy-y.
Yeah what is it with the Australian hate? xD It's better than hundreds of American voices.
I have no problem with the Australian in her accent. It's her often inappropriately bright and cheery dialogue combined with an annoyingly high pitched voice. Just listening to the sound of her voice grates my nerves.Quote:

I can't see how anyone could prefer her to Rikku and Penelo. Both had much better voice actresses.
In general, I like the voice acting. I like the Australian accents, even if they're not supposed to be outright Aussie and more of a fantasy-world Aussie.
I think Fang's voice lends itself to the word "mate" quite well. She should've used it. xD
I just beat the game, and I have to say, I was blown away by the voice acting. I was still suffering from shock after Mena Suvari's mutilation of Aerith's voice and my eardrums hadn't quite healed yet, so I wasn't expecting such a performance from the main character VAs.
Lol, I love Sazh's VA the best, I think. "Follow the old man's lead", "This dampness sure is damp", "You think it'll all be sugar and rainbows?" are some of my favorite quotes.
Fang's VA was great, too. I was surprised to learn her accent wasn't natural.
I was worried about Lightning for a while from what I had heard in one of the early trailers. Back then, it was rumored that Kim Mae Guest would do her voice and I was real iffy on that. But Ali Hillis did the character justice and put all my fears to rest.
Nearing the end of the game and I think overall the main cast has been pretty good. There's some awful dialogue, but the voicework does some decent things with it and is pretty impressive at points.
Snow, especially.Quote:

Oh and Jihl = Paula Tiso = Lulu. *removes glasses* "you truly are clueless. Are you sure it's your memory that's the problem?"
Most of the other X cast seem to have been in it, in minor Cocoon roles.

Yep. Not sure how the VA did it, but he managed to turn a dull, cliched douchebag into a likable one. He even made it bearable when Snow was acting like a complete parody of himself (seriously, how many times did the guy dash off in a rage at Barthandelus only to get knocked back by a forcefield?)Quote:
