    Default The Voice Acting thread

    A lump sum thread for all of our comments on voice acting. Remember, if you're talking about voice acting of characters later in the game that aren't the main ones in the game pamplet, use a spoiler tag, OK?

    I'm loving the voice acting so far, but I have no idea what kind of accent Vanille has yet. It's cute and unusual -I think it's Australian, but I'm not sure yet. XD I've not seen a character with poor voice acting yet. Star Ocean: The Last Hope this is not!

    Sazh has exceptionally great voice acting, and Lightning's is great too.

    I'm actually pretty... impressed. It's not perfect in every spoken line, but it's more than acceptable :p, at least for the main characters.

    I agree, everyone's voices are pretty good - except for Vanille's. Her's just get's right on my nerves.

    Sazh is outstanding and I think Snow's is up there too. Vanille, I don't know. It's like Fran's in XII in that I'm not sure if I love it or hate it.

    yes... Vanille's actress... that was a trivial perhaps even useless share.

    I doubt she's going to be an all-time favorite but I certainly don't think Vanille's voice bad by any stretch.

    But yeah Sazh and Snow are downright fantastic and the others are very, very good too.

    Yeah, kind of like Fran for me as well. I wasn't sure at first, though I eventually loved Fran's voice. Fran was the only reason I really played FF12, actually.

    Hopefully I like Vanille's that much!

    Sazh is really legit so far

    actually everyone except hope is pretty good

    vanille can be so annoying and yet so "right" sotimes that it fits too perfectly.

    Its definately not bad and is really decent somtimes

    So far I am fairly impressed with the voice acting.

    From what I saw I was really impressed by the voice work, particularly the syncing. Sazh and Snow are also my favorites of the ones I heard.
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    Yeah I'm happy with all the voice acting so far, I agree with Sazh and Snow being particularly good. I'm kind of not sure about Vanille's, it's not really annoying like I was expecting, it's alright I suppose.

    Vanille's voice acting is certainly not as good as the others. It's bearable, if only because hers is the only one that annoying so far.

    Sazh is the best, yeah, and Lightning is very good too. Snow has some very cliched lines, so it'd be hard for anyone not to make them some awkward, but it's quite allright. Vanille seems a bit out of place, but maybe it'll be fine later on when she finds her place in the group. Hope's voice is a bit whiny and annoying, but so is his character so the voice actor is definitely doing his job.

    Snow's voice actor is as good as the japanese one. The rest is not as good as the japanese ones.
