RPGCast – Episode 517: “Sonic and the Holograms”

1. QOTW: I’d must say Grant George in Tales of Vesperia Definitive Version as Yuri Lowell. Now it’s not that it’s a nasty efficiency, a lot because it’s a nasty approximation, as a result of Grant George obtained arrange for failure from the get go being requested to not voice a personality, however to approximate Troy Baker voicing a personality. Usually giving the character of Yuri a unique character than Troy gave him, and making Yuri appear like he was struggling some a number of character dysfunction.
   
   
   Folks wish to say that they will’t hear the distinction between the 2 and may’t inform when the voice switches between actors, however I can hear it clear as day.
   
   
   It wasn’t a deal breaker and I nonetheless loved the sport immensely, however I’m not gonna faux it wasn’t very noticable.

2. My instance for Query of the Week is the primary time Hilda, the Witch of Destruction, is correctly launched in Stella Glow. She’s voiced by the venerable Wendee Lee, a VA I like and respect very a lot. I feel she’s each a talented actor and voice director. All through the remainder of Stella Glow, and even a quick flashback within the very starting, Wendee does a superb job voicing Hilda. The exception is the prologue chapter. Hilda is probably going speculated to sound chilly and aloof, however she simply sounds bored as a substitute. XD “Dangerous” is harsh, nevertheless it definitely may have been higher.

3. For my part, Dragon Quest III and Dragon Quest IX suffered from the identical issues – the create-a-party system meant that no get together member apart from the hero might be related to the sport’s story, and grinding job ranges in each video games grew to become so tedious that the postgame content material was extra hassle than it was value.

   I feel each video games are value enjoying at the least as soon as. Greater than as soon as, I’m not so certain, until the participant particularly needs to aim a sure get together mixture, problem recreation, or speedrun.

   QotW: Since we’re excluding FFX for apparent causes, my favourite unhealthy online game voice appearing is in Arc Rise Fantasia. Niko’s and Cecile’s English voices have been notoriously painful to listen to; on the similar time, their VA match their respective characters completely. The complete recreation has been justifiably criticized for unhealthy VA, nevertheless it’s one in all my favourite JRPGs of all time.
