Saying inb4 doesn't make those arguments less valid. Sorry this isn't your safe space.
>>340298820
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.
>>340299486
There's nothing wrong with the honorifics or Fuuka. God bless our capacity as humans to have differing opinions.
>>340299254
Honorifics are fucking retarded. Either translate your shit or don't.

>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.

I hate dubs but it's a non-issue to me because I can just import the nip versions and play it without trouble.
I don't need to deal with incompetent, meme-riddled translations and awful dub acting in my weeb games.
>>340299804
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.
>>340299024
Unless you're gonna bitch about JYB and Yuri Lowenthal, the Persona Atlus dubs are alright when they don't cheap out.
They can probably get back Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham and Matt Mercer.
Just don't expect Troy Baker to come back since he stop doing JRPGs and Japanese games in general unless it's AAA as hell.
>>340300345
>So if they can't translate it, whatever.
so what, should they leave the blank hanging with "......"s like how those fucktards at nintendo did to FE?
Given the demand for it this is completely unacceptable. There are tons of other games that include the original audio track as a bonus let alone something people really want.

Atlus are a bunch of jewy lazy shit, what do you expect? They don't give a shit what their fans actually want, they'll do whatever they feel like because they know people will buy it anyway.
Atlus dubs are shit, fuck people defending their lazy same-voices, and especially fuck Atlus.
>>340299254
P3 had mediocre dubs at best, P4 had alright dubs but some characters sounded off and Atlus reuses the same voice actors for every single title.

I'd like to wake up now
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.
>>340300012
Complete garbage. How can they even pretend it's localisation when they fucking keep things that don't make any sense in the country it's localised to?
>>340299254
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.
Fuck this shit pirating this on ps3
I'm the biggest weebfag you can imagine and I still think anti-dub posts are fucking retarded.
The only reason you hate dubs is because it's popular to do so.
There's no excuse not to have at least dual audio these days, it almost feels like they're doing it out of spite making it dub only.
>>340298820

>Another Atlus game I'll have to play with voices disabled and watching cutscenes on youtube
>>340299804
>How do you translate honorifics into English, then?
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.
>>340301246
>I am X but I still support Y post because...

if hating on dubs are popular, the companies importing eastern games would have already took notice of this won't they?
>>340301193
>Talkin shit about Lowenthal & Co
m8...non-unionised people are the cheaper ones and they're also the better ones.
>>340301246
The only reason I ever hate dubs is if they're godawful (happens REALLY rarely) or because the director's were fucking stupid with the dubs (like honorifics)
>>340299832
I am not even American so fuck off.
Japan got some of the very best actors of their industry for the game. And what we are getting is not even close to the best actors of America's industry.
But for some reason that doesn't ever matter to you and your kind of people.
>>340301246
Here's your (You), autismo.
>Why would I want my games done by a bunch of literally who actors?
I love this mentality that seiyu are completely revered by the general populace in Japan, yet in reality the only people who know them are the hardcore fans unless they did something super iconic like Pikachu, Detective Conan, or Doraemon
good news, if you want japanese audio you can get it months early.

I don't know. I haven't been a fan of Atlus that long. This is the first time I've been looking forward to a Persona game pre-release. I was hoping, now that any technical or financial excuses are out the window, that they'd actually pull the trigger.
I'm done with video games.
Does it even take place in japan?
I mean I thought it was France with all the frenchie performas
>>340299254
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.
Especially when they decided to leave honorifics in an English script (which sounds REALLY forced by the way) and can't keep character voices consistent.
>>340301256
You have no idea how much it costs to license jap VA performances do you
>>340301246
I think dubs are generally shittier than subs but not to the point that most people make them out to be. The Persona series in particular usually has well done dubs.
i don't care if there using dubs,
what pisses me off is that there gonna use the same shit-eating grin voice actors that come from the awful dubs of naruto/bleach that have been overheard for over 10-17 fucking years, these voiceactors seriously need to be blacklisted from alot projects.
>>340301428

I said in another post that they have the cast but they have a fucking retarded director who wants to leave those non-sensical honorifics in.

>You have no idea how much it costs to license jap VA performances do you
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.

First two Metal Gear Solid games
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.
>>340302565
It doesn't fucking matter.
>>340299804
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

>>340301850
>You have no idea how much it costs to license jap VA performances do you
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.
>>340303314

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.

dubbed shit sells more, no question about it.
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

If I could have my way most voice acting in video games would be either super high budget affairs with great voice directing and acting or they'd just be animal crossing style blips and boops only in the game to carry inflection.
Can anybody please try to explain rationally to me why they wouldn't include the japanese audio? Even fucking SMTxFE has it, for FUCK'S SAKE. Do Atlus USA love their VA's dicks so much that they won't even compare it to the top tier VA the japanese version has? What the fuck, seriously just what the fuck. Everybody is asking for the japanese audio for every Persona game, why the fuck can't they just give it to us?

People have been bitching about this aspect of Atlus for a very long time
>>340301850
>You have no idea how much it costs to license jap VA performances do you
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?
>>340304152
they're fucking retards, it's simple as that. I'm 100% sure that there's some big VA lobbying in there, there's no other explanation

SMTxFE has the Jap audio ONLY, and even then knowing Nintendo the subs will try and repackage jokes or phrases with memes or whatever it is they do now.
Dual audio is the main debate, because when things come out you have the option between what to use rather than being stuck with one.

I can't speak for costs but the disc space issue is plain wrong. Blurays can be 25+ GBs, not to mention since 2011's SDK the PS3 can read off the disc instead of requiring an install.
And if anything, the Japanese voice acting can be placed as a DLC on the store.
>>340304197

I've never understood the obsession with dual audio. If you really want to watch the japanese scenes, go to youtube or something. And besides, except for the people hear who can understand japanese fluently, why would you want the sub?(Not shitposting, I've really just never understood this)

A-HA
IS THIS OUR CHANCE?!
Why is dual audio such a big deal? It seems like most people who want it just don't like the English dub, which is fine and understandable. But there's no need to bloat up the file size of the game when you can just mute voices instead. If you can actually understand Japanese and would rather hear that, just get that version of the game. It even comes out earlier.

>>340304630
They don't want to put the JP audio in because they want to be cheap and probably feel threaten that the JP dub will devalue the english dub. It makes no damn sense that they somehow can't get the cast for this game yet cheaper companies can somehow manage to get a lot of these same VA's in their games despite them not being nearly as popular as persona.
>>340305013
but the big Jap VA's get hired to play the same archetype roles over and over too

Even SE did dual audio with Lightning Returns on console(DLC), and they said before it couldn't be done because of lip synch issues. But they found a way for the fans.
>>340305208
>there's no need to bloat up the file size of the game

Sound so bad in english so be prepared for that. And the only reason to come to mind is that making subs takes time too, but itself the persona games are made of subs so why not, dual audio i really dont understand

The actual staff of the game is not involved in the dub process. This lead to huge problems and mistakes, especially considering the setting of the game.
You get a game with the entire dialogue is just not genuine as the creator intended.
That and you need to realize language isn't a "On/Off" thing you fucktard. There's different levels of proficiencies. Which lead to peoples understanding some of it and wanting the original dub but aren't good enough to understand 100% of it.

Or let's take Atelier Shallie and Sumire who voiced one of the protags, she fucking even came up with song about poverty for her character. Did it made game or characters less bad? No

Because more options are inherently pro consumer.
There is clearly a demand for subs as there is a demand for dubs. There's no reason to not cater to both of these audiences as the existence of dual audio doesn't cancel out the dub.
>>340305905
>>Americans must conform to my shitty niche taste!
How is it niche to prefer the original VA, regardless if it's a movie or game?
Do you only watch dubbed movies?

>>340305974
That's because she has a singing career. Which not everyone does. Some just do voices, others also sing.

>>340306241
To be honest, having multiple different cultures is wasteful and inefficient.
>>340305208
Yes because the "bloat" of dual audio is clearly worse than forcing people to buy two seperate versions of the game depending on their audio preference.
Why not just make people buy another copy if they want to change their control scheme while you're at it
So how hard is it to have an undub on ps3?

Because it's a fucking retarded suggestion. You shouldn't have to buy a completely untranslated version just because the devs are too inept to include an option to change the audio
>>340306482
I don't understand
If you prefer Japanese you buy Japanese
Same for English
Why you think you have to buy both?
Normalfags should stick with their shitty overated triple AAA garbage games.
If he's telling the truth and they're actually investigating this instead of simply placating people begging for it then I'll understand if they can't deliver. It sounds like they might be working with a really small budget and very little wiggle room to obtain the overseas licensing rights.

Because people want to play the game in english while hearing the original audio.
Plenty of games have solved this issue by including the option to toggle japanese/english audio.
You're a fucking idiot spewing false dicthotomies trying to turn this into an either or option.

>>340305208
Cause I don't want to mute the audio I want to hear the Japanese actors I'm a fan of not a disgusting American butchering the dialog. The game literally takes place in Tokyo.

>they're actually investigating this
They are not investigating shit.
See the rigged poll they had up for only a few (nighttime) hours where they asked fans to vote between dual audio or deluxe-edition boxes with useless bonus shit.
Guess which ones the users on the Atlus community forum voted for?
Then they take this result and show it to Atlus Co. and say, "See? Gamers over here only want to play with their own language audio. Please give us money to hire VAs, another translator for localization, and a sound engineer to do the dubbing."
This will go on and on, and Fatlus will not DARE ask for less money. Or all those friends of theirs won't be able to be hired, and they will have that much less budget for all their future projects.

I agree that it's pretty niche, but persona fans will be angry
>>340302781
I figure that if the japanese audio was released worldwide, they'd have to pay the japanese voice acting rate, which is more expensive than to just dub it and not include the Japanese audio.
>>340306691
I don't know m8, if smaller company like Idea Factory can do dual audio why not them?
>>340306790
Fucking this. Square Enix for the longest time didn't include dual audio but even they changed their mind. Fuck AtlusUSA.

It has fucking quad audio. Even if you split that time to the meme 10 years that's 2,5 years per audio. Meanwhile Purseowner 5 has been in development since 2009 or 2010 as well.

It was said earlier in the thread. They keep cockteasing with dual audio but they'll never bite the bullet and actually do it.
>>340306797
It was two years ago, I went for a few months after I was invited by a friend of mine and stayed with his family.
But it's true, most of the people you meet won't know voice over people unless they have a successful music career or are the official foreign voice for a big name actor. Despite being Japanese products, you're kind of expected to mostly grow out of anime by the time you finish college (if not before) unless you want to be called a failure or shame on your family for buying figurines and body pillows. But at the same time it would be better than working yourself to death like everyone else
>>340306691
They're with Sega. Sega is publishing 7th Dragon VFD on 3DS which has around 40 top-tier original VAs, including some of the Persona 5 nip VAs
They absolutely CAN afford the licenses. They do for an even more niche game than P5 for shit's sake.
No excuses.

Smaller publishers than Atlus are able to do this, no prob.
But somehow every property Atlus works on COINCIDENTALLY has some sort of huge price tag on the JP voices? Horseshit.
It is budget jewery and being the last weeb publisher still doing this is embarrassing.

Development time was pretty similar. FFXV as it is today was not in development for 10 years.
I don't see what budget has to do with anything. If anything, lower budget would be a reason to provide the sub, not hire a bunch of English voice actors.
>>340307063
What about NISA, IF and Xseed? They are on par or smaller than Atlus but they can still shit out dual audio option.
>>340303814
He's right.
Ever felt spoiled on something you care and felt like you need to get to the point of that spoiler just to know why it happened?
>>340306691
It's just bull-crap PR to get people to stop asking why they aren't doing dual audio while lesser companies are able to do it.
>>340306281
I watch most things with subs even English movies since sometimes an actor will speak a line far too softly for the background music.
Say what will you will about dubs but Naoto's original English voice was like pure sex.
No wonder she didn't want anybody to know because damn
>>340305148
Literally who
Why should I care
So what english voice actors do you think will voice the new main characters? I think Yuri Lowenthal will voice Naruto, Troy Baker will voice the painter guy and Erin Fitzgerald will voice Anne, bikergirl will be voiced by Ashley Burch.
Gonna pirate it on my ps3 but with custom firmware can't we just add in the jap voices ?
>>340307212

But the journey is a whole lot less interesting when the destination is already spoiled.

reading comments like these make me realize i dont give as much of a shit about pointless stuff as i had originally thought
So we can expect an english trailer at E3 right? Can't wait for JYB and Yuri Lowenthal once again.
>>340307615
You can.
>>340306790
Its almost like SE has loads of money to burn and Atlus is still a mid-tier niche developer

>>340307602
CIA AKA Little Finger AKA Tommy Carcetti will voice the cat
>>340307653
no no, anon. if you will know that this character you meet at start of the game will die in 50 hours - it'll certainly not make game less interesting!
Too bad I only started to learn kanjis this year, I don't think 1000 kanjis will be enough to understand
>>340307686
So explain to me how can smaller company like NISA can provide us with dual audio?
>>340307720
you learn japanese first then i will
Can we all agree thatEtrian Odysseyis the only atlus series with good dubs?
>>340306691
Sorry but when Idea Factory and Gust can afford it they are just full of shit.
Stop being so entitled. Don't like it then don't buy it.
>>340299997
it's ok to admit you don't understand Japanese.
>>340307874
no
if not top tier gameplay, I'd never bothered with that series
>>340307781
Her latter voice only sounded marginally more masculine, but at the very least didn't use the voice of a full grown sexy woman
No dual audio no buy.
>>340307847
I don't need to learn Japanese to hear it.
Not gonna say its good but I'd rather stick with the English here anyway. Remember Japanese Teddy? Jesus lol
I'm sure the dumb cat thing in this game won't be any better
who /laughingatEOPs/ here?
>>340307913
Typical corporate cuck logic
>you should ask for things as a consumer!!
>>340307553
She had a sexy voice but she didn't pass for a boy at all, and the japanese voice actress was still superior, her voice was cute as fuck during the romance scene where she tries to sound like a girl.
>>340307212
still gives me goosebumps. if you watch dragon ball in jp where her voice actually fits and then go to dbz I feel like it's a pretty natural transition. I never had an issue with goku's jp voice anyway though.
>>340308016
The cat actually sounds good

>Remember Japanese Teddy?
Remember English Teddy, Chie, Larry, Nanako, etc etc
>>340307742
seriously though, you can't have fucking kotomine kirei as the main antagonist and not include his jap audio, that's a fucking tragedy

I don't particularly care when it comes to dub/sub. I'm more bothered that it doesn't have a worldwide release. A bit of a minor complaint, but I had really hoped to get my hands on the game sooner.
>>340307913
With the news of a PS3 release don't worry I wont.

Actual localization, not what NoA uses to justify censorship, is about conveying intent in another language. It's not about finding a literal translation for a particular word, it's about figuring out what the point of the sentence was and trying to achieve the same general effect.
>>340309019

>>340308714
Derek Stephen Prince? I like his voice, but he almost always gets the same character types.
>>340308481
In Persona Q you have Yosuke and P3 MC talking to one another and it's almost the same voice.
In Persona 3 you have Grant George voice Shinjiro, Officer Kurosawa, and Jin and it's almost all the same as well
Can anyone in this thread without resorting to a strawman give a single reason to be against the implementation of dual audio since it inherently means English is included.
>>340302565
Because guess what: the dubwasn't done by the director who did every Persona game
>>340299254
The honorifics are the worst shit because they localized it so the characters refer to each other by their given name instead of family name like they would in Japan because that makes sense in the US but they STILL kept the honorifics. It's like if the Japanese translated "Mr. Trump" to "Mr. Donald".
>>340299254
The dubs started off as pretty good but they've gotten worse and worse over the years
>>340304630
If a new startup like IFI can get the original Jap audio as free DLC for their games (only because it wouldn't fit on the vita cartridge) I'm sure Atlus can do it no problem.
>>340298820
If P5 didn't have an English dub I wouldn't have bothered. The only time I use gook audio is when there is no other option, and it pains me to listen to shrieking anime girls in games. The same applies to movies as well, but for Persona it's No English = No Buy.
>>340307835
