I'm not horribly torn up about it since Persona dubs are usually fine... or at least they were until New Chie, New Teddie, and Ashley Burch as Rise

the real loss is Jun Fukuyama, since his voicework is supposed to be a major selling point in japan.

>The localization of Persona 3 was handled by Yu Namba and Nich Maragos. During this process, the team worked to leave as much of the original Japanese content intact, continuing a trend started with Persona 2: Eternal Punishment. One of the ideas had by the team for Persona 3 was to use it as a medium for introducing Japanese culture to a western audience. While localizing Persona 3 for English-speaking countries, the honorifics used by the characters in the original Japanese script were retained.

Gee I don't know how do you translate all the other words that have no proper english translation?
I could compare the japanese script with the english translation and pick apart tons of "mistranslations" and stuff that deviates from the original but after that no one would want to read the english version any more. Why even bother with honorifics at that point? It just sounds cringy as fuck because no english VA can pronounce japanese.

Unless you're gonna bitch about JYB and Yuri Lowenthal, the Persona Atlus dubs are alright when they don't cheap out.

The dubs are alright in persona 3/4, my main issue is with the translation themselves. If you translate something and don't remove (or worse, add) honorifics you're just doing a shitty job. It's the sign of an amateur. I've never seen a good argument for leaving them be.

>They don't translate well into english

very little does. Something I don't think a lot of people understand or are willing to admit is that any good translation is going to be a light localization. Straight, 100% direct translations are stiff and awkward as fuck.

>There's no equivalent

Then reflect what the honorific means in the writing. For example if a character initially treats someone like a rival or a nuisance but warms up to them and sees them as a friend, and this is reflected in the honorifics used, maybe have them go from calling that character their first name or Mr. LastName to a nickname.

That's hardly a perfect solution but I'm just spitballing here. Surely someone who is paid to do this for a living would be able to make it work more smoothly or at least would try.

>People playing these games know what they mean anyway

This is the worst kind of mindset. It leads to things like pic related. A translation is not meant for a niche that knows the language of the original version, it's meant to make it something someone speaking a completely different language can understand.
>>
There is literally nothing wrong with using honorifics in English translation

Prove me wrong

>>340299254
How can anyone fucking defend honorifics in a fucking DUB?

They have fucking great VAs but even they can't make honorifics sound cool because they don't fucking make any sense.

They're garbage m8. Just comparing the budgets immediately makes it instantly clear that the English dub is neglected and they don't really care.

The original has an all star cast, but we're getting Lowenthal&Co yet again you can be sure.
They're just taking whatever is cheap and available. They don't go out of their way to actually make a good dub.

You don't, or if anything use words like senpai and sensei on the side just no suffixes.
Also don't replace them with weird English words like how Kuroko in To Aru calls Misaka "sissy" instead of "onee-san" in the dub.

Nah. The cast was decent (even though I still vastly prefer Rooney as Chie over Fitzgerald) but they aren't exactly what I'd call good dubs.

It depends on the agency.
Meanwhile, the publisher here hires localizers/VAs/sound engineers instead of reusing game assets.

But it is a given fact that if it cost less to use dub actors, then every localizing company would use dub actors.
This verifies that it doesn't, and Atlus is covering its own ass in the budget game. If they ask home office for less money to pay for meaningless work related to dubbing, they receive less budget from thereon for all its projects.
Fatlus are doing nothing but covering up their own asses.

Tell us then. Whatever the cost is it can't be something they couldn't reasonably afford. Hell, they could sell that shit as DLC to make up the cost for all I care. That is how much I want it.
>>
>>340301936

I think the thing that matters isn't how good a VA is but how good the directing is.

The reason dubs tend to fall on their face compared to the original release is because in the original the voice actors get the full attention of the company making the game/movie/show/whatever and as such are given the proper direction to convey the emotion of the scene, whereas in a dub they more than likely have a completely different crew that is just trying to get a translation finished rather than focusing extensively on making sure they can still convey that same emotion.

I'm not saying all dubs are bad, just look at Cowboy Bebop or Baccano for some really good ones, but I'm speaking in general across all languages here.

I kid you not. I will likely enjoy TMS #FE more than Persona 5 since they made Persona 5 dub only while #FE thankfully is being brought over with the Japanese voices.

Hopefully someone will successfully undub Persona 5 relatively quickly though. I'll probably skip out on playing Persona 5 altogether until I get the opportunity to play an undub somehow and then I'll see what I think of it.
I was expecting Persona 5 to be dub only all along, but this still really kills the excitement. And the game still has a long way to go before release even.

Localization is a thing and not just a censorship meme used by Nintendrones buttmad about loli's

Not a lot of Japanese shit can be translated, instead you replace something Japan can only get, with something that Americans can get

You think Kid Icarus Uprising's dislogue was actually good? It was only good because the localization had good jokes and Hades great

It also explains why Palutena's guidance in Sm4sh was off, because it's a direct translation of the Japanese writing instead of localization

In Japan it's generally more acceptable of a career than it is in the US, because the stigma here is that you're a failed actor and have to resort to doing this because you can't get anything else. That's diminished a little bit in recent years, but is definitely still around.

Much like in the US if you're some adult who watches a ton of anime and buys merch based on it people will think you're a loser, which is the same as it is in Japan

Yes I do and even low budget shit games have no problem doing it. Anime comes over dubed and subed almost within the first week these days and guess what they are the exact same actors as in these games.

It's the current year and Atlus needs to get with the times.

>>340303063
Yes fucktard it doesn't matter, there should be still a choice.

Part of this is the idea that they can expand their audience by having an Eng audio version. It's no different than an anime being dubbed, because the only reason they do it is because they feel they would sell more compared to a different series they feel has less appeal.

I don't know if I would go as far as to say revered though in a lot of cases they most certainly are. But people most certainly do know of them. Just like how people in the streets of the good old US can name Hollywood actors.
And speaking of Hollywood, Japan doesn't only do voice overs for their own native industry, they dub foreign movies too. And a lot of them are famous for being the voices of western celebrities where they reprise the role for anything said actor(s) star in when dubbing. So it's not even just anime and videogames.

It's not that I particularly like Japanese audio more, think it's more authentic, or whatever.

Even the best English dubs shit the bed at some point, and in a game like an RPG it takes me right out of the game. With Japanese voices, I'm far less likely to recognise when they go to shit so it's often a better choice, along with no voices at all (and it still annoys that the voices can't be switched off entirely in battles or cutscenes).

Regardless, there's still no reason not to include dual audio now anyway though - particularly in such a high profile release as this.

it just doesn't make those dubs any good - just sell able enough to shitty fan crowd who doesn't know any better
And if they license voices - AtlusUSA will earn less money overall, so they try to just keep dub and sell more plastic shit to profit more from the game by themselves.
dual audio feature is always will be good and welcomed by users, just not by atlususa fanboys who lick their feet daily

It's no more expensive than it was to record it in the first place. This is why I absolutely hate this argument.
You're basically saying that it's too expensive even though it is less expensive than the original, and we should all just be happy and accept that. In spite of the games actually sell more in the west than in Japan.

We give them the most sales, and they won't even match our budget with theirs. And yet people like you just lap it up and even defend it.
Why in the world would you and do you accept less than they're getting?
