#Guilty gear xrd characters series

Things like 'oh dear lord, poor form, expected, I almost noticed that one, maybe when you're a man, neat trick, awful pose, hardly qualifies,' and worse, as well as properly reciting the names of his moves when they land as part of combos. So instead of funny bad like that, or bad-bad like when english Ky says could scout around and find some talent, and then provide guidance on site, detailing the world, and telling the voice actors about the characters, their motives, tempers, habits, and so on, so for instance Ky lets his burning blood and obsession with retribution actually surface during those big attacks, like the quite loud 'MORATTA!!!!' when he hits counter with 6HS, and has a really bad habit to revert to his crusader days, and commenting most harshly during many block animations and non-HS counters, as is to be expected of someone who trained the elite of the elite for half his life. I've gone over this at least 3 times now. It being an anime fighter has no bearing on the fact that the Xrd dub was awful, and failed to even portray the characters properly.

I don't think you understand business very well if you think ditching a horrible dub = abandoning all hope of 'going mainstream.' Did you also know that SF only got an actual dub worth its salt about halfway into SF4, around the time they settled for 'current' Dudley and Guile? KOF is japanese only to this day, and SNK have said they have no plans to change it, no desire to change it, and no intention to ever do it, and it's not negotiable.

I mean no dub tolerance with a series like this is way higher in the first place considering the asthetics / story and it being an 'anime fighter.' There is huge overlap on wanting/accepting no dub with this unlike other games. You mention all of this but to me it looks like they simply abandoned the hope of this and of Blazblue of ever getting 'mainstream' popular of a fighting game like SF and decided to save money by cutting the dubs and just live with them being the niche series that they are internationally. Also, they didn't even do enough research to fit in some BnB staples like OH NO! I'M FALLING! or COCONUT! Better bury it and do it right than keep it around. Note: For team games this is NOT their position on the team.Originally posted by Vassago Rain:They were cut because:ī) most of them didn't even know what they were supposed to convey with their acting.Ĭ) getting a new translation in time for street date was an impossibility, so became a future project.ĭ) aside from the guy doing Slayer, it's doubtful any of them knew anything about the characters they were voicing, let alone the world the characters inhabit.Į) the game survived fine for 16 years without dubs, and about 90% of the move names are rock or metal homages, so can be understood by anyone over the age of 15, regardless.į) a bad dub is forever.
