The original English dialogue was poorly recorded and that can never be fixed at this point without finding everyone and re-recording it.
I'll just use the JP dialogue anyways, it's how I originally played through the game back in the day as an imported title. Without being able to read a word of Japanese. I still don't know how I finished the entire game that way to this day.
Are we sure about this? I've never heard that the voices were poorly recorded, just they were heavily compressed for either storage or performance reasons.
US Gamer Interview said:USG: Are these the original voice performances? Have they just been cleaned up for higher-definition audio?
FFXII: The assets we're using are the original recordings, but we're able to reproduce those audio assets with higher quality compared to the PS2.
The response here can be read both ways. But if the original voiceover assets are high-quality, I can't imagine why they wouldn't use them.
