Why would you want to listen to their shitty Japanese dub anyway?
>>341484329
Because it's better than an abysmal English dub.
>>341484329
Hi john
>>341484424
An abysmal English dub you haven't even heard yet.
They're just cheap. Even low-ranking companies can provide dual audio.
>>341484329
Have you played the other games? the english dubs are not only bad, they are actually cringeworthy
>>341484181
Yeah! Fuck those guys who want to play the game in their native language!
Kill yourself.
>>341484323
What are my chances if I know literally no Japanese starting today?
>>341484539
I've heard one of the actors. I don't expect any better for the others.

Do you know more than one language? If no, not good.
>>341484592
It would take years to learn Japanese on even a basic level, not even total fluency, and in the time it takes to learn how to read runes you could be speaking 3 or 4 other languages.
>I WANT TO LISTEN TO A LANGUAGE I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE I'VE HEARD IT'S BETTER
God damn it, if you actually know japanese just import it, if you don't know japanese but still bitching about English VA you're legitimately retarded.

>>341483948
well, it's confirmed then.
But whatever, all I'll have to do is NOT buy the game and play the pirated undub version instead, just like P3 and P4.
NO DUAL AUDIO NO BUY
NO DUAL AUDIO NO BUY
NO DUAL AUDIO NO BUY
I like how the lack of JP voices was already confirmed last week, when they unveiled the US release info, but this news suddenly hits early in the morning, almost as if ATLUS USA didn't want anyone confused when their official E3 trailer featured English subtitles and Japanese voices.
Also, half the info from that news story is copied from the game's description at Gamestop.
Siliconera and all the sites that picked this up are just shilling for ATLUS.
>>341485556
I am not a native English speaker And I still think Persona dubs are fucking terrible. Nier dub is great. Final Fantasy dub is great. Heck, even Tales of dub is at least tolerable. But for fuck sake, don't ever pretend Persona has good dub
Given that none of their previous games provide dual audio, how are so people so fucking shocked about this?
>>341485289

Some of them.
>>341485556
Yes but as a native english speaker I can tell the english voice acting is GARBAGE. If the japanese is garbage but I cannot tell that it is garbage, well then, that still makes it better does it not? (It does)
>implying the eng dubs of P3/P4 were bad
This is coming from someone who is a weeb and regularly watches tons of moeshit.
I forget, do Persona games have the option to turn off voices?
>>341485525
What the fuck are you on? Are you talking anime here? If you do you are autistic if you mean persona 5 what you say make no sense.
>>341486108
Literally impossible to understand.
>>341486171
They were bad. A few characters were as good as their Japanese counterparts, but only a small minority.
Chidori slips into an old grandma voice in half her lines.
Alright you fags, heres the deal.
This is a major blow, this does suck ass on all fronts. Massive delay, no dual audio, our CE isnt as good.
But you know what? Crying on 4chan isn't going to do anyone any good. We have to start message bombing Sega, their parent company, and get them to take control of the situation and actually fix one, or more, of the three current issues plaguing the game as of now. Meaning we'll either get the original 2016 release, dual audio, or the better CE, or with some unholy luck, all 3.
START MESSAGING SEGA AMERICA, TWITTERS, EMAILS, LETTERS EVEN. I've already sent 4 emails to them. Its stupid but theres a 1% chance it'll work out for the best in the end. DO SOMETHING INSTEAD OF CRYING FUCKERS
>>341484592
Depends on your INT stat and how much you can study.
It's not about learning the language, it's about learning how to play this specific video game in a language. Study as much as you can and test yourself with a JP rom of Persona 3 or 4.
You'll have to memorize the alphabets, get an anki2000 deck with the most common 2000 words, and a grammar workbook like Taekim or Genki.
>>341484181
Thankfully, I don't care much about voice acting so no.
>>341486171
The English dubs of those games wDre charming, but they were not good. The closest we have to a good Atlus dub is Catherine.
>>341485475
BECAUSE LOL XD SENPAI NOTICE ME MAYMAY
>>341486182
P3 & P4 did, but there's a lot of ambient voice throughout the game. So you still get all the shitty English battle cries and such.

Is this supposed to be news?
>>341486296
Sure people like Chidori were bad, but the overall quality is a lot better than what you would typically expect out of a dub, it's not an overall bad dub by any means barring as we've both said a couple characters here and there, Chidori and Fuuka probably being the most offensive.
>>341486347
Sega doesn't care. The solution is to get a modded PS3 and pirate the undub.
>>341486000Nice trips
I haven't said that Persona dubs were good or bad, it's just retarded to praise VA for a language you don't know.
Just turn the fucking dialogue audio off for christ's sake, everything they say is presented in text anyway.

Maybe if you're comparing it to some truly god awful stuff, the stuff that shouldn't even be published, but it pales in comparison to many other JRPG dubs.
>>341483948
Dropped.
>Giving a shit about dual audio
Please leave. The PS3 version is being localized and you can undub that one with custom firmware. Now fuck off NeoGAF whining cunts.
Atlus are the only ones still refusing to provide dual audio. Sometimes Nintendo too but they flip flops on the subject.
Some games are even getting officially translated now with no dub. And the idea of an Asian release with an English option is also getting more popular.
The days of the same 20 inbred talentless hack VAs ruining my experience will soon be over. You don't understand how much of a deal breaker replacing someone like KanaHana with fucking Laura Bailey is. You might as well replace the graphics with kindergarten scribbles.

we are only getting samples of the persona 5 soundtrack meanwhile the nip edition is getting all the soundtracks from all the persona games, better packages, more content, etc
Hopefully you can set the English voice volume to zero.

Most of their audience prefers an English dub no matter how bad. A very sizeable minority demands Japanese dubs but not enough to refuse to buy the game over it.
Atlus is making a calculated decision to not spend money on Jap voices just to please the handful of people with the integrity to boycott the game over this.

Oh fuck off I know you're baiting but it's so lazy. The voice actors we get are always absolute shit tier, the voice direction is normally worse, and the script often gets changed way too much.
There have been plenty of good dubs in the past that people are fine with or even prefer to the original version. The persona games have never come close to falling into that category.
>>341487507
Sincerely yours,

>>341488190
American voice acting in videogames (and cartoons and other things, they don't just act for videogames) is a perfectly respectable profession in America.
It's dubbing Japanese stuff that is amateur, low paid work. And that's why dubs are shit.

Va are pretty much the equivalent to Hollywood's A-List celebrity. That why their stocks live and died by their public persona. Some of them are absolutely destroy cause it was discovered that they weren't virgin. All of them are good looking as well. As if their looks are important to VA. God forbid their merits just focus on their voice acting ability.
That industry is a joke and the otaku/weebs that gobbles that shit up.
>>341488519
That voice cast is seriously god tier.
I can't think of a better lineup in recent memory.

>>341488464
American localization companies will never cave on the subject. They don't care about whether changes are wanted, that's just what they get paid for.
You need the parent company, in this case Atlus, to see that they're fucking up and costing sales. If that happens we could get Asian releases with English options in the future.

>>341487824
No they aren't. Though Animators usually work 3 shifts in order to have some kind of livable wage and A tier VA usually have higher incomes or lower depending on demand and popularity in the year but the most proficient could make easily double or triple that.
I would be alright with dub only if they at least compromised with getting the fucking localized version out earlier. Mid February, AND no dual audio? Are you cunts going to charge $80 for it and cut a bunch of content too, christ Atlus.
>>341488519
>Char and Quattro listed as separate characters
>tfw I just want to discuss the game but can't because two groups of retards keep screaming at each other.
I wish they would just have dual audio if only so both sides of this shit show would shut the fuck up about it already. Jesus fucking christ I hate you all!
>>341489178
There is absolutely no way anyone would want to be an animator under conditions like those.
>>341486953
I like it too. If you're going to do an English voice acted game that is clearly set in Japan, the best option is to play it straight. You can't localize everything and pretend that it doesn't take place in Japan, but you've got to have the basic text in English so that your audience can understand it.
It's like in a Fantasy setting, where everyone is speaking English, even though that makes no sense. And they've got little idioms to let you know that it's a different culture. Most of the time you're not thinking about the fact that they're not "really" speaking English, and you just go with it.
>>341489416
That's why they outsource the animation.
>>341489386
Be mad at Atlus not us.
It's their incompetence.

don't bring your America hating /pol/ shit into this. American voice acting is fine for other games and cartoons, but it is only when it comes to Japanese localization they bring the shit tier actors out.

>>341488519
There are some characters there that never made it into anime, why are they associated with certain VAs? Like Ajumi from Medaka Box or Pucci from Jojo Part 6.
>>341488519

We went over this with Fire Emblem Fates, but none of you faggots seemed to listen.
It's cause of contracts. It'd cost them extra money they don't want to shill out to extend the japanese VA's contracts to international releases.
This gets even more complex with higher grade Jap VA's like Fates & P5 have, including times when some of them flat out refuse to sign for the international release of their work.

this is just atlus usa being shit
>>341489662
Jap. Only english va we know of is edea from bravely default as morgana.
You know no one outside of a vocal minority of /v/ cares about dual audio right? Out of the 88 posters I'll assume that 80% of them is assblasted because muh no dual audio. That's about 70 people. I'll be nice and assume that the actual number of people mad about it is five times higher. 350 angry weebs. Considering Persona games are aiming at hundred of thousands of americans/europeans, your opinion
Literally
Doesn't
Fucking
Matter
Have you done any enquiries about how hard it is do deal with licensing in voice acting? No you haven't. You'd rather bitch and whine because you have nothing better to do.
And the worst thing about that is that if they ever bother to make japanese VA available through (hopefully) free DLC, you're still going to complain about how late they are. Get a life.
Who was in the wrong here?
And yet FFXV has fucking quad audio.

>Be mad at Atlus not us.
I can be mad at both. You're the ones shitting up every P5 thread with your fighting instead of emailing Atlus or Sega like you fucking should.
>>341489706
Didn't stop Arc System Works, who makes a lot less overall revenue, getting Guilty Gear dual audio. Or Persona Arena, for that matter.
>>341489548
It has some great names, but you also get a lot less screentime with each character, only a couple of the god-tier VAs get major roles in the story.
In P5, this is your party and villains for a much longer game.
>>341489706
Yeah and meanwhile Danganronpa that argubly had a cast as good or better than P5 saw a dual audio release in the west.
Fuck you FatlUS apologist.
Just pre-ordered the Take your heart edition.
Don't have a PS4 yet, but I will probably by winter-ish closer to when some real games actually start to show up with it.

This isn't nearly as big of a problem as you think. It's just Atlus being shit. If the localization was in mind from the start it's not going to cost much.

You're not getting the point here.
>>341490191
This anon is.
The point is that Atlus (and Nintendo when they did it with Fates) are just being cheap as fuck and going with the US dub only.
American voice acting isn't nearly to the same scale it is in Japan, it's a lot easier for them to shit out a cheap dub than to do both that and extend the contracts for the Japanese.
It'd actually be easiest to just extend the contracts and fuck the dub, but they likely thought that wouldn't sell well in the West.
>all these anons who think they can learn Japanese enough to play persona under a year
Just stop, it's not gonna happen and you need atleast 2 years.

>>341490685
Atlus think they can compete.
>>341490685
Boy it's almost as if skipping a dub and just going with subtitles is faster and gets the game out quick. Someone should tell Atlus USA this, because evidently they do not quite understand.
>>341490281
>All we can do is complain impotently.
Then do it somewhere else instead of shitting up every thread.
Or better yet! Why not put that energy into actually learning Japanese so you don't have to deal with dubs at all if you hate them so much? It probably wouldn't be that hard if you stopped shit posting on the internet for 12 hours a day.

Link. Because I have a gut feeling that the sole reason they ain't showing all of the character voices in English is that they are utter shit.
>>341491089
See, that's the thing. I like the dubs, I think they do a pretty good job in picking VAs (apart from a couple of cringy scenes). But god damn the japanese VAs have voiced so many iconic characters, and are generally so much more expressive, that I can't help but feel frustrated at Atlus.
I can't wait to romance Aoi next September!
>>341491146
Even if you don't like Hocchan's Chie for whatever reason you have to admit that's miles better than any of the dub options.

It's not Atlus USA who needs to be made aware, but Atlus in Japan. They could easily produce dual audio if they lifted a single finger, but they could not give less of a shit about the international audience. All Atlus USA does is pretend whatever they are forced to do because or Atlus Japan's indifference were intentional artistic choices the entire time.

In any other game series I would be really scared because of the whole "Enjoy your 'hamburger' while we walk around 'New York'" kind of vibe you can get while they are obviously eating a bento box in Tokyo, but Atlus tends to not try to American-wash their games.
Then again they did have Alex Organ do a Jamaican accent in SMT...
Hopefully if it releases on PC they will have dual audio.

Eroge is nothing fucking retard
Insider here, the reason for no dual audio is actually a bit complicated. It doesn't have to do with Atlus and the Japanese V.A.s, but the American ones. As part of their contracts, some of them demanded that there be no Japanese audio (some of them are attention whores). In addition to this Atlus can then spend more money on the English VAs, as part of the workers union, they want more money, so money that was going to be spent on Japanese VAs.So it's both American VAs wanting to be the only voices in the game and their greed for more money. It's not because of the stupid, we believe in our dub shit that they keep saying, that's only a lie to help sell the game because they know their dub sucks and they are only releasing it with a dub.
>>341492290
What the fuck do you not get about the word casting? How can they promo the voices if the roles haven't been assigned yet?
>>341487965

I didn't want it to be true but fuck me. I don't understand their reasoning behind it. I know I don't know the industry the way they do but I know more options is never a bad thing. Why not have both English and Japanese voices? Excluding a language option for a game that caters to weebs like the newer Persona games only serves to shoot down potential sales. And their reason being is their too prideful about their English dub to even bother giving us the option for Japanese audio.
Atlus USA, what the fuck?

Really don't understand the big deal over this. It sucks that there's no option, and the delay is fucking stupid, but this is nowhere near as bad as something like the recent Fire Emblem's dubbing and censorship. You people are making mountains out of molehills.

I'm More-gahn-ah and we're going to play some pursssseowner!" Now that I know moon, I can safely say that I was spot on, and anyone saying "You can't tell the difference if you don't know Japanese" is literally fucking retarded.

Memorize the kana in a week. Download the Genki textbooks, read them from front to back and take notes and do exercises. After that you should know basic grammar and SOME vocab. Read Yotsuba manga and add new words to your anki deck, while also posting on lang 8 and making jp friends to chat with on skype and ask questions about (there are tons and tons of grammar constructs that aren't in beginner text books). Once you're at the point where you can read something and completely think "I understand this" or "I don't understand this" then you're good to play games, because you can at least look up or ask questions on shit you don't get. Being at the point where you read stuff and think you understand it but it doesn't make complete sense is when you're too shit to really play games or read anything, and you'll fuck up literally everything you read or listen to.

Without named names, such an accusation is worthless. If he would point to specific people, then we could start looking for actors who stared in games without dual audio when the company is known for them to confirm his story, but right now there is nothing.
>>341493905
I just don't understand how. Voice actors over in moonland are in a lot of ways synonymous with their characters, almost legally and can make as much as their movie stars. Hell, a lot of them are professional singers and actual actors on top of that. But American VAs are for the most part bottom of the barrel if they're doing dubbing work for anime and anime games.

I don't understand why people think this is a good argument, if anything that's the fucking point, you can't understand it so even if it's bad it will be much harder to tell.

If you have NEET time and you're smart it shouldn't take too long. If you have a job and don't have unlimited free time, then you'd better be really smart. If you have a job and you're dumb, then there's no way in hell you'll be playing anything any time soon.
Good luck.

I'm Canadian and learning any language other than English in any field outside of international business is a waste of time in my opinion when subtitles and dubs exist. Say what you want to justify your wasted time learning dead languages though, you retarded hipster.
>>341486712
Let's put this very simply.
Would you watch Training Day if it was dubbed over in Japanese? Is there any Japanese who can deliver that performance? Why would you throw out a large reason for watching the movie, Denzel's acting, to get a "localized" experience?

But I'm buying the Japanese version because they worked so hard on it, I want the voice actors, and I learned Japanese to not get cucked with 5 month wait times and no dual audio.
>>341494676
Is hiring the voice talent of Justin Roiland and H. Jon Benjamin really that expensive?
These motherfuckers do Newgrounds skits for cheap when they're not doing VA work. I don't think anyone who does Newgrounds skits for part time would be too costly for anime and manga.
>>341493870
because there is a thing called a union, that determines the amount of money actors 'must' be paid, and bigger name people want more money.
Tom Kenny has spongebob money, he is not going to waste effort voicing shit he doesn't want to.
video games, ESPECIALLY anime video games have to be cheap to make profit,that means you higher people willing to do 'grunt' work, pad their resumes for work experience, or helping out a friend under the table.
most celebs who voice video games are old busted fucks who can't get regular acting work anymore due to age, yes 'real' celebs do stuff in shit like call of duty and GTA, but because, now pay attention here, they PAY them enough money to give a shit about the job,even if it's a video game.
Anime video game dubbing is cheap work, people do it for resume padding and work experience, once they are famous enough to get 'real' paying VO jobs from the union they will mostly stop anime dubbing (See Steve Blum, Troy baker, Laura bailey.)
>>341493863
Every country does that but the companies importing entertainment usually include an original audio track for almost everything.
Shit CoD sells in japan in a Dub and Undub version separated and the undub version (in english) always sold better.
>>341494906

So you are telling me for "slightly better than shit some of the time" instead of "amazing cast of iconic voice actors you know and love?"

>>341490925
to be fair that actually sounds pretty close, she didn't seem like one of those VA's that "wanted to add my own thing" to the character she has the tone about right, the only thing missing is the "nya" at the end of every sentence.

it's just a different world of talent pools. Japanese voice acting for games and anime is a 'real' career that agents and talent and devs need to leverage for money. Specific tiers of voice actors and specific female va's CAN move units in japan, they are usually worth paying for.
American dubbing for anime and anime games is 'budget' work over here, it has to be done cheap and fast with as little redos as possible. because the VAST majority of the time, you aren't going to buy the game because a specific VA is in the dub (laura bailey has fanboys up the ass but even she can't really move a product on her own, 'just' Rise. People liked Jennifer hale too, but you don't but a game 'because' she's in it.
>>341495342
Fuck off I don't watch half the shit on that list, let alone the two characters sound nothing alike so I could never make the distinction, that's actually good on the VA's part because more VA's both JPN and US only have like ONE voice they can do and they spam that add infinum.
>>341495776
That kind of shitposting only works on people who can't understand both languages.
>>341494941
I just get really sick of hearing him everywhere. Since I'm not familiar with the language, I'm less likely to get annoyed by voicework unless the voice doesn't sound like it matches with the character. Voice differentiation is more credible for a VA when it's in a language I know.
I can't think of another phrase to describe it besides "ignorance is bliss" but maybe I should try learning and understanding Japanese to better hear their delivery with lines.
>>341495784
Except that's bullshit since there are VAs here that can move units too.
Weebs need to kill themselves.

35 - 60 year old Japanese VA voicing 12 year old little girls. Yeah you can't tell me you cannot tell its grating.

Why do people even want dubs? In an action game where you don't have the time to look at the bottom of the screen, I can understand, but not in a pseudo-VN. What is the benefit of having a dub in Persona?

Yes, and the VAs female characters on the chart are also highly regarded like Jun.
People want dual audio because how great the cast looks. If it was Kumashit and no-names like the other Persona games these threads wouldn't exist.
>>341496424
No, but I am not the retard that believes that american VAs can actually move units at all. At BEST people will recognize the good work of certain VAs but most of them because they work on certain AAA characters and productions for a while, like Nolan or currently Troy Backer.
>>341496184

No they fucking don't. you do not run out and buy a mediocre fucking game because Mathew mercer is in it, you do not buy gears of war 4 because Laura bailey is a random female character, you do not buy uncharted 4 because it has Laura bailey doing a mediocre south African accent.

Japanese Va's have agents, agents are greedy jews no matter the country. you 'want' their audio to use somewhere else, they 'want' you to pay them more money.ATLUS doesn't 'want' to pay more money than they have to to maximize their profits, so they skip paying those fees and hire non union creditless actors so they can be paid a lesser rate.
>>341498039

>>341498151
A lot of those names are the cream of their VA talent, who most likely have more vocal variety than English Dub VAs who only get shoehorned into the same role 20 times. And many of them have successful acting and singing careers.
It'd be like complaining about people jerking off to a movie because it has a cast of veteran and talented actors.
>>341498519

>>341498253
That is the point, without it it wouldn't had any relevance at all. Shit anime industry has already banked on the VA popularities and have sold BD of anime with tickets for shows and the like in order to increase sales and it has been working wonders for them for a while now.
I don't see anyone in the west buying an anime BD collection because Bayley is making a concert and the only way to get tickets is to buy said BD collection.
>>341498497
But they don't realize they have to pay this time because I will go apeshit if the don't.

>>341498828
It has no relevance anyway.
Your example is shit because no one bought that crap VA or otherwise.
