Castor Krieg said:Yes! The story won't make a tiny bit of sense even after playing through it for the 3rd time.
Droplet said:Is it Liam O'Brien? My speaker quality is a bit off but it sounds like him.
Airgetlam said:I also thought he sounded familiar. Turns out he did the voice of Kain in Dissidia and in the DS remake of FFIV. Both characters all in purple...
Snow also isn't dating/having sex with Noel's little sister and saying stupid shit right after he and the rest of the group got turned into Monsters.AlphaDragoon said:English Noel sounds like a boss. I laughed when he started clowning on Snow, even though I'm not entirely sure why he's clowning on him. And look, Noel can make his point without being a douchebag and punching someone in the face for no reason.
English theme song is pretty bad, IMO. I like Charice's voice but the song itself is bleh.
TruePrime said:As for the story doesn't seem that great. I want to hope and believe that the Mr. Purple actually kills Noel as I already can't stand the douche, just wish he had stuck his sword through Serah as well.
Him losing to those two fools will be a bigger travesty then any other thing that has happened in either XIII or XIII-2.AlphaDragoon said:LOL, that Kaias guy is probably gonna get beat down by Noel/Serah at the end of the game.
Luthos said:English Noel sounds like Haku from Spirited Away.
Droplet said:There's something kind of confusing about the beginning of the PS3 trailer. Just the way that Snow phrases what he's saying makes it sound that Lightning just waltzed over to the pillar and became a part of it.

duckroll said:Yeah, I think that happened in the post-FFXIII short story novella that came with the FXIII 360 JP package.
miladesn said:From what I remember of that story, Lightning just disappears when everyone is busy doing other stuff and no one notices when/how. I guess this is just what Snow thinks.
duckroll said:Right. She literally walks away and disappears.
Droplet said:Yeah, that's why I'm more confused as to why he comes to that conclusion. It's just so randomly out there.

Lips aren't synced by the way! Don't rag on that of all things!
Really? I liked English Larsa - hell, all of FFXII's English voicing was great, despite the compression giving them the underwater effect - but Japanese Larsa's not bad either. He comes across as quite sincere. I've gotten quite used to Japanese VA, so maybe that's it.Fimbulvetr said:You will cringe when you hear Japanese Larsa.
You know how English Larsa sounds both naive and sophisticated at the same time?
Japanese Larsa sounds like a moron. Completely failed to get across how intelligent the character is.
I would not be surprised at all if Toriyama is as controlling when it comes to FFXIII-2's script as he was with the FFXIII script...nelsonroyale said:damn, they really need to fire the script writer.
They honestly look a little... ugly or sometimes a little jarring to me.Tizoc said:ATM the one thing that annoys me about the game is the QTEs...
I hope he'll at least laugh like this (caution: VP2 spoilers). (He probably won't.)Seda said:On that note, I just beat Valkyrie Profile 2 and he was absolutely great as Lezard. Totally different voice though so I didn't catch it right away.
Kyon said:looking good so far. Btw anyone else think the graphics were downgraded?
miladesn said:they added grass too, I think it's actually upgraded
BlazingDarkness said:Needs more Leona Lewis
jett said:I was thinking of XII, I'd so like another XII-like FF game, in that it's vastly different from the norm.
Nope. I'm guessing that the voice director told the VA to read the lines like that.kayos90 said:Okay, I watched the Promise Trailer. I'm sure that all of Hope's lines sounded like it had the same VA in the Japanese trailer. I watch the US trailer and the first time he shows up as an adult, he sounds vastly different than when he pops up the next time. The last time he shows up in that trailer sounds like it was the original VA but the other time is so much deeper. Am I the only one who noticed this?
The veggie flan does Hokuto Hyakuretsu-ken, ain't nothing ugly about that. It's just that if I get a pre-emptive strike I'd like to get into the battle immediatly instead of mashing buttons.Dark Schala said:They honestly look a little... ugly or sometimes a little jarring to me.

I had to chuckle at the "mature" voice because it sounded forced.

LOSE YOURSELF IN BATTLE.......AND REJOICE!! lol

I liked Hope's English VA from the start... because I liked him on Everybody Hates Chris. He did a really good job as Hope, imo.Perfo said:Hope's english VA was great in FFXIII...
here though, he seems not that good. I hope it's just an impression from the trailers and in the final one he'll deliver good lines like in the past (probably the best with Sazh).
Almost same, except that I am trying to ignore it alltogether. FF XIII is enjoyable when I just skip most of the cutscenes.Cwarrior said:I don't think a story has every put me off a game but this one has, well not the story but the character that are in this game.
ULTROS! said:Speaking of 360, was it playable during TGS? Kinda wondering if it didn't suffer compression problems like FFXIII 360.
