    Voice acting is acting. It takes talent and skill to do it right, otherwise it sounds bland.

    Think of it as your classmates in school reading aloud. It sounds flat, boring, and so on. There's no emotion. Voice acting is acting, as the name implies. All 'normal' actors have voice training so as to convey emotion in their speech. Otherwise it'd all be left up to facial expression and body movement. Not very convincing that way.

    The FF games are made by the Japanese. The only English input is the translation (which is often quite bad). Therefore the quality is thanks to the Japanese.

    I never complained about their voices. I do, however, prefer the Japanese voices.

    But I can say that Tidus, compared to his original Japanese voice actor, sounded like a whiney idiot. Yuna's voice was good, though her tendency to speak so haltingly was annoying.

    I dont know what a babnes is, so I cant respond to that.

    Kingdom Hearts had professional actors from the normal Hollywood stock, thanks to Disney, along with the original high quality voice actors from the original Disney movies. Final Fantasy games typically have voice actors from cartoons and the like.

    You mean of the translations? Take a look back at Final Fantasy VII... we have lines like "This guy are sick". The original translation of Final Fantasy IV (the SNES version, the PS1 re-release was done far better) was abhorent and left out tons of important facts.

    The translations have improved, but are still lacking in some games.

    Yes, as we were discussing qualities of the games on the whole.

    Voice acting always means a non-direct translation, however, because of the need to synch lines.

    Though saying that, Square Enix is coming with more and more English into there things. Even the title of the game is in English and with the Japanese name on the bottom right of it.

    Even the box my Advent Pieces boxset is mostly in English.

    That's typical of the Japanese in all aspects of their media. Many things are written in English because it's aetheticly pleasing. That doesnt mean that Americans are responsible for any aspect of the games. The only thing Americans are responsible for is the translation.
