The voice acting is atrocious in both languages. I play it on japanese, it's really bad there too. Worst part with japanese voices is that they don't actually even translate the game, they just put the same lines as English dub has for voices.
Alex M. Oh, sorry, I meant that the tone of the voices is a bit boring. Or, more so, it sometimes doesn't suit how their characters are acting in the cutscene or are a bit underwhelming, but maybe that's because I really liked how the voice acting was done in the previous game. But I am slowly warming up to them, morag's and nia's especially. I really like dromarch's and tora's voices too
Yeah Japanese voices have more emotion, voices match and lip syncing is on point but DAMN those accents in English are top notch and makes the people through out Xenoblade Chronicles 2 seem diverse because of the many different accents but some don't fit the characters.. decisions, decisions.
Although I still can't defend Rex for hardly being able to scream until the end. I just made my own lore there and pretended that he can't scream very well cause he's only like 14. It made it a little more bearable, but not by much.
Some people can tolerate voices more than others. It's a JRPG; I don't expect the dub to be perfect and yet some people hating on it expect oscar-winning performances. As for this game, it had a shaky start, sure. But at the later half of the game, it didn't bother me at all.
Twilitblack thats great~ the dub has grown on me im currently at the beginning of chapter 3. My only gripe is the battle voices overlapp each other and when fighting human enemies, it sounds like flies buzzing in my ear. XCX did battle voices better. Whenever the charas yelled something, i always knew it was for a specific command. This game... ehh the onscreen prompts are good enough.
@@azurlune1877 Nintendo: we make family friendly games. also Nintendo: *puts the word "shit" into a waifu simulator disguised as a JRPG* everyone: oi, this one's got a lot of nerve, you one eyed monster!
Lets be fair here, regardless of who Rex was lifting, my boy is still pretty much a kid, it would be hard as shit for him to lift anyone up to the ship with an iron cable. It doesn't help already that Rex is barely shoulder level to Pyra.
@@knightofarkronia8652 well I doubt that actually. If they truly were made of metal she wouldn't be as agile as she is. It's more likely a durable lightweight metallic alloy if anything else.
@@popenieafantome9527 considering she lifts herself airborne and does a handstand off of Malos's blade without weight affecting her whatsoever yeah, it probably isn't metal.
Except that he regularly lugs chests full of gizmos and gadgets up from the depths of the sea, Pyra shouldn't be much compared to a waterlogged chest of treasure. Unless, did the first scene show Rex using balloons to lift up a chest? I forget
1:11 as you lay your back onto the cold stone that sits atop the fort while the town gets obliterated into pieces, you see a flare shooting up from one of the leaving troopship near the shore. You smile one last time and mutter... "Gh... So... heavy!"
I really recommend listening to the difference between japanese pyra and english pyra. It's insane how different their characters become by voice alone!
FusionTrainerTNTBee Still, the argument between dubs and subs is fairly stupid. I personally think that Pyra and Mythra's voices have more nuance in the English version. Almost all of the female characters in the Japanese version sound the same, which really takes away from Nia
Kyler Vanderpol-Lim the generic voices in the Japanese version is what turned me away from it. The voices in the English version are far more unique. The choice of assigning different accents to each of the game's societies is a great idea.
Fusion He does kind of have a terrible habit early on of rushing into danger needlessly, and hurting Pyra in the process. It's hard to shake that going forward, even as he improves.
I understand that to an extent, but my point is that he just started off really brash and kinda generic. It was hard to warm up to him. Pyra was fun as soon as she started acting more casual, though, and Nia was always a treat. Tora... could take or leave him, he's the obligatory Nopon. Liking what I've seen of Morag and Zeke so far.
Fusion Except Rex’s personality isn’t all the wonderful to begin with; he’s just kind of every hotheaded oblivious paragon male anime protagonist ever. Case and point, compared to the rest of the cast, he’s just kind of a boring character that’s been done a million times already, and brings very little new to distinguish himself.
Fusion Honestly, I really don’t feel like that’s nearly enough to make Rex different; in fact, this is pretty common for characters who fit this trope in JRPG’s; that’s often how they manage to make enemies join their party, which literally all the party members in Xenoblade 2 were enemies at one point ( except for Tora ). So again, it just feels flat, and like I’ve seen this character a million times before. Beyond that, maybe it’s just me who dislikes this, but Rex just starts to feel like a character who’s physically incapable of disliking anybody, and will try to make friends with anybody with a pulse, which wouldn’t be such a problem if that didn’t make him seem so static and predictable. He never really changes much throughout the story, and when he does get development, it feels awkward or falls flat on it’s face, like when he loses Pyra to Torna and just suddenly gives up for like 5 minutes, despite that being very out of character for him, or when he came to the realization that he had to work with Pyra to get to Elysium after meeting Addam at Spirit Crucible Elpys, except isn’t that basically what he’s been doing the whole time. I’d even argue that he’s the weakest character in the cast, ( next to possibly Mythra, although, maybe I’d call her more irritating than weak ).
That last scene with Pyra and Rex really takes me back to the original game with Shulk and Fiora I feel like both Rex and Shulk say “I DIDNT MEAN IT LIKE THAT” too but idk
Smash needs more cartoon-like characters. Basically half of the fighters look like an anime, have a sword (or in this case BE a sword), and have real lines.
Hey, if a video can have me going from rolling my eyes when the video first starts, to rolling around on the floor laughing, it must have done something good.
This game cranked the anime up to 11 and I loved it! Like, fuck Rex for new smash bros. Give us the Zekenator! Bringer Of Chaos! ULTIMATE LIGHTNING FURY SLASH!!!!!!!!
Pyra:Can you... take me to Elysium?
Rex: *Has no idea what Elysium actually is* YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSD
I don't know what it is as well. Care to elaborate? I played in Japanese and they used rakuen which is literally Eden/Paradise.
Good thing he knows what it is.
SirMiluch They basically gave Paradise a name in of just calling it Paradise.
@@FazzSatoshi no, they're using a fancier version of the word. It's totally not that they think we're dumb at all.
@@sirmiluch6856 Elysium is the roman "afterlife" or paradise you could say. Like how valhalla is the norse warrior afterlife. you get the idea.

Yup. Agreed. Did no one at Nintendo ask for them to sound younger or, y'know, add emotion? I like the accents but they're all so boring
