    Its possible to carp about the VA, and I was sometimes irritated by Tidus voice. But even there u can argue he's in character. And if you get irritated by pauses in Yuna's VA, go play a 3D shooter or get some more ritalin by all means.

    Really though we should celebrate the fact that the VA took FF to a whole new level, and the good IMO far outweighs the bad. Auron and Lulu are especially awesome.

    Tidus's VA, James Arnold Taylor, voiced a lot of things, including Leonardo in the most recent TMNT movie n.n

    My friends and I were watching it, and were like OMG TIDUS GOT KIDNAPPED!!!

    The voices were bad because the VAs were spending most of their time trying their hardest not to laugh at the outrageously bad script they had been given to read from.

    Money's money, though, so they gave it their second-to-worst shot.

    The script wasn't bad. The VA's I thought were particularly good except for Tidus but I just didn't like his voice. They were probably laughing at your sad attempts to make this game seem bad.

    Yes, the VAs can see into the future to posts I make on the tubes. That sounds about as plausible as someone like you having a good comeback.

    Zing!

    other than it was slowly read at time, I had no problems at all with the voice acting, nor did I hear anyone else complain about it, until I checked what people on the internet were saying about this game.

    I think some of it comes from the fact that XII's was much better, but that localization team put ALOT of effort into their part.

    Ditto, but I disliked JAT as Tidus. I simple didn't like his voice though, the quality of his voice ACTING was actually pretty good. Rikku's annoyed me as well, but just for HYPER SUGAR FF GURL YAY!ness.

    Everyone's voice acting was fine, except Yuna's. It felt way too ... different and strained. I liked Lulu, Auron's, and Rikku's voice acting the best, though. xD
    wheee!

    I feel rude for intervening this argument.

    But you godhand have not said a single nice comment on this forum.

    Every single one of you're pathetic posts are just pieces of crap that is not gaining you any respect.

    No one here likes you go and make some friends and try not to insult them every frigging time they speak to you.

    So get lost stop insulting us and stop acting so retarded

    I feel it was due to bad timing. Especially for Yuna as she seemed almost robotic midway through one of her talks.
    EOFF needs a resurgence to it's former glory.

    I think some of the English actors tried too hard to match their voices to the lip movements of the characters. That is why all those big pauses showed up.

    I actually picked them because they are the only VA in the game that I like from other shows.
