No voice acting makes moments like these awkward as hell
No it doesn't
>>723451098The worst of both worlds
>>723451098It would be more awkward if they used those god awful anime dubbers from Zelda
>>723451098>Jumped by black French people late at night.What did Gamefreak mean by this?
it's better than some non union anime dub tier voice acting from some literally who
>>723451206Kino realism If I had a dollar for every person I know that got raped, killed, jumped, stabbed or turned into a vegetative state by shitskins after dark, I could probably order a nice pizza>t. frog
>>723451098I'm a big Game Freak hater but nah keep it without VO
>>723451098It'd be more awkward trying to adapt that corny anime dialogue into something that sounds natural.

I don't mind the Pokemon games not having voice acting, but they need to stop fucking directing their cutscenes as if they do. Old PS1 games that didn't have voice overs were never this goddamn awkward.

>>723451098I remember seeing it in a interview that Masuda literally don't want VA in Pokemon due to the fans. He believe that Pokemon fans should be allow to imagine how their favorite character should sound like. You may think that's crazy until you look at the anime and game. See, in Japanese culture, VAs literally voice characters for their whole life, so you'll believe that they would voice this character in other media too, but no.Mayumi Iizuka is Misty JP VA and she have been voicing that character since the start of the anime series. However, in Pokemon Masters, she is voice by Ayane Sakura. It's the same thing with other characters as well. Iris is voiced by Aoi Yuki in the anime, but not in PM. They made it clear that the character will always be voiced by someone else just to give this impression that they can sound like anyone.
>>723453202>jogger sics his rottweiler on youYou cannot make this shit up.
>>723451098cute tummy
>>723451098>tfw you accidentally step into the designated rape zone
>>723451098>>723453001It worked fine in Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword.
>>723451098This will be 70 bucks + tax
>>723451098Can't they at least bother with the characters saying random gibberish like DK or Pikmin>>723451140Note to defense force, fast replies make it too obvious
>>723453213Seiyuu culture is fucking weird. Touhou Lostword has to have multiple voice actors for every character because ZUN doesn't want any of his characters to be "owned" by any particular seiyuu for the rest of her life.
>>723453213That's not a good enough excuse when the end result is so jarringIf you want kids to bother fantasizing and making theories about your characters there needs to be something memorable that sticks in their heads, voices are one of the easiest and important means of doing soAs someone else said in this thread the fact that they have choreographed speaking animations just makes it 10x more stilted than earlier pokemon games
>>723453213Stop defending laziness
>>723451098ah yes, niggas battle zone
>>723451098If Pokemon ever gets VAs I hope they are AI, VAs dont deserve a single cent from that franchise.
>>723451098you ever wonder why you see these takes within moments of eachother on xitter and /v/it's almost like someone's trying to spread a narrative
>>723454197>If you want kids to bother fantasizing and making theories about your characters there needs to be something memorable that sticks in their heads, voices are one of the easiest and important means of doing soAnd imagining the voices isn't fantasising? The old pokemon games or old Final Fantasies etc aren't memorable?
>>723454463That's mostly because people in /v/ are mindless NPCs who have no personality other than checking social media thinking that will make them normal.These people are also retardedly influentiable, hence why they all ended up talking like feminists with their "whataboutism", their "male gaze" and "incel", plus these people have such a low IQ that they automatically believe anything written on the internet.
>>723451140Yes it does. If you are going to not do voice acting, fine. Don't do these cutscenes though that are animated as if there is supposed to be voice acting though, its super jarring and a waste of resources.
>>723451140>>723453213>>723454463I'm still waiting for you faggots to watch anime, movies, and TV shows exclusively on mute, with only subtitles.Better yet, burst your own eardrums and be happy with a world without voice.
>>723454463>>723454694Or maybe everyone sees a shitty thing and such everyone is pointing out that shitty thing, huh, Pokefags?
>>723451098I would prefer some grunts and other sounds like Zelda npcs... obviously i wouldn't care anyway if the game is trash like this
>>723451098Why does Pokemon have cutscenes? Why do they insist on shoving plot shit in it?You'd think Pokemon would have already turned into a PvP focused MMO.
>>723455308So you admit to actually, unironically browsing Twitter?No wonder this board is full of gacha slurping casuals.
>>723451140Found the drone
>>723455342Pokemon panders to the "pet parent" audience instead of compfags who are the only people who really care about Pokemon.
>>723454463it was like this with the leaks a few days ago tooendless regurgitation by redacted and people that think they'd finally be funny if they repeated shat they heard
>>723451098why do they keep doing this crap?
The new digimon game actually has EN voice over for the first time why is pokemon held to a lower standard
>>723451498No it isn't
>>723455606I would do it too if i had braindead paypiggies as fans
>>723451140Elaborate, how does it not?
>>723455549wrongcompfags are the minority therethey don't buy the plushies or other merch
>>723455606Because they are a business, why would they change when their current strategy is succesful.Unless you think there's a "visionary" behind a franchise that lives on parents who want their kids distracted.
>>723455620did you buy it?
>>723455708And yet, if they had their way, the games would be far better than what the casuals ask for, who just want shit like VAs and more pointless open world trotting and taking selfies of their stupid characters.
>>723451140FPWP
>>723455839they are going to make a compfag game soonso they know there is demand for it
>>723455787I boughted Digimon
>>723455920Based
>Pokemon>looks like a PS2 game with some shitty cartoony artstyle>Digimon>looks like a PS3 game with some shitty cartoony artsyle>same for Palworld and SMTHas a single competent team ever worked on this genre?
>>723451140upvoted and thread locked
>>723454332Who said I was defending it? I was trying to explain a reason why there is no VA.
>>723456072Nope.If the likes of Rockstar would ever even bother with this shitshow of a genre rhey would instantly humiliate the 30 koreans who work on this shit.
>>723451140Based. Pokemon does not need voice acting
>>723455196Like I told the other guy, who said I was defending this? I'm explaining why.
>>723456238When /v/ is extremely asshurt over something, anything that isnt endless spewing of seethe will only trigger the schizos.
While voice acting would be nice, the last time I saw a clip from the anime’s dub, I wanted to go deaf. Be careful what you wish for sometimes man.
>>723451098
>>723451140fpbpAce attorney didn't need voice acting other than small interjections
>>723456424context???
>>723456625That's how women in the Pokemon universe react when you explain how your team is built around perish trapping.
>>723456625Ai you boomer
>>723451098That's some pretty decent animation for a pokemon game considering what we've been seeing the past few games.
>>723456672>>723456698hahahaha
>>723456625Taunie is my wife and I love her cute little butt!
What exactly is the point of animated cutscenes if they are not voiced? It kinda works as a tradition from a JRPG perspective for normal dialogue, but if you step it up to the "modern era" or whatever you wanna call animated cutscenes then at least voice them.
>>723456238NTA but it's a pretty shoddy explanation. Even if Masuda really believes that, the idea of "their voice is whatever you want it to be" is fucking retarded
>>723455920I pirateded Digimon and boughted Pokemon
>>723456625She's the MC's wife
>>723456790I dunno, I've hated the voice acting in basically every nintendo game that has had it.
>>723451098The problem isn't a lack of voice acting but the fact that they keep directing and animating these cutscenes as if they DID have voice work.It's been happening since gen 8 and I just have to wonder why.
>>723455196One anon told me that cat posters have the shittiesrt takes here. I thought it was random babble but I guess he was right.Not everything needs voice acting. Same as not everything needs realistic graphics.
>>723456919I dont see why its a problem. They can direct the scenes however they like.
VA is dlc in this one
>>723457069recover from your head injury before posting
>>723451098Wait what the fuck is even the point of lip syncing if there isn't even any voice acting? How the fuck did they not even get voice actors? Even Sakuna of Rice and Ruin, a game by two fucking developers, is fully voiced. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7gjpCXxwyA
>>723457069The piers scene in swsh was just objectively terribly directed with the lack of unique music and awkward sound effects. Having no voices could work if they just played a minute long original song for that scene.
>>723451098These retards need to learn that games do not have voice acting because they want the players to make their own voices and learn to read..
>>723453796It's very different when a game shows text in a box that doesn't advance until you press a button, if you present it as regular subtitles in an auto-advancing text format it's fucking jarring.
>>723453001Yeah, I'm not a big voice acting guy, but with ZA it comes across as if they ran out of time and said fuck it. Like it should be there and it was always intended to be there.
>>723451498Nope
>>723457149As discussed in previous releases its probably not to conflict with whatever anime they put out based on this release and how the anime casts voice actors.
>>723455342How else are they going to psyop kids into thinking predatory loan sharks are actually good wholesome do-gooders and corporations are actually your friends.I would never let a child play Pokemon again if ZA is where they're taking the plots. The ecoterrorism was bad enough.
>>723458376You'd think a corporation like Nintendo would figure that shit out immediately, considering VAs are usually one of the earlier things that gets decided upon for most JP games. Why even fucking wait for the anime when the games are the moneymakers anyway? The hell? Surely nabbing some exclusivity contract for VAs isn't that hard for the company that fucking owns Pokemon.
>>723451185>>723451498Who said anything about dubs, just do JP only it's pokemon anti subs people will put up with it anyway
>>723458547Kids arent as stupid as millennial adults, they dont believe things just because they see them in games.
>>723451098That dialogue and animations are cringe enough already, i don't think i'd be able to handle a shit American dub on top of it as well
>>723451098>9000 years later>pokeslop STILL doesnt have voice actingwhy are nintentroons so terrified of voice overs? it's literally the current year, there's no longer any excuse
>>723451098I'm so glad I have an internal voice unlike most of the #5 brain haters on this site lmao
>>723451098Fuck no. I always mute voice acting in RPGs, I can read much faster than the characters talk, it's irritating as fuck.Voice acting only belongs to action/sports/adventure games and only as call outs for attacks.
>>723462138based i also can rotate apples in my head so i don't need the games to not look like shit, i can fix that with my imagination just fine
>>723451140>I'm autistic and I do all the million dollar voice acting myself har har plebs
>>723461936Well just look at zelda and how it ruined it with awful American voice acting and you'll see no voice acting is a safer bet
>>723462350
Games were better without voice acting desu
PAYVOICEACTORSRIGHTNOWCHUD
>>723457225And you're too stupid to realize that maybe after a franchise rolls in 300 million annually, they would need to develop some semblance of a reflective standard and progressive growth.
>>723451206The main Indian support is a simp for an egirl as well LMAO
>>723453202>jogger attacks you at night
>>723451140FPBPBeep-beep-bops sounds are enough and even more charming.
>>723451098just have fucking text boxes holy shitactual cutscenes like this to be "cinematic" while not having voice acting is embarrassing, why do people play this shit
>>723458561they dont care, people will buy and praise it anyway
>>723451913>If I had a dollar for every person I know that got raped, killed, jumped, stabbed or turned into a vegetative state by shitskins after dark, I could probably order a nice pizzaJesus anon, are you serious?
>>723451098They waste all the time doing these cutscenes with sound effects, mouth movements and timing that would seem that voices should be coming out, but they don't.It's one of those situation where doing just a cheap textbox dialog would look less awkward.
>>723462895There are no beep boops in these types of cutscenes, subtitles just appear with no sound.Only the regular white textbox dialog has any feedback.
>>723451140I guarantee most of the people seething at this post are over 25 y/o
>>723451098Can you emulate this game
>>723451098>/v/ is now defending voice acting just to own the tendiesYou're all pathetic retards
>>723451098>nigs and arabs>effeminate white boys>girls dressing like slutsIt's sad but that's what my country is now. I can't even be mad at GameFreak. Sacrebleu.
People are being obtuse on purpose, the problem is not the lack of voice acting by itself, the issue is the cutscenes and animations were directed in such way that not having voices or at least some kind of gibberiah coming out of their mouths just looks awful.These kinds of fanatics are not known for being genuine so i'm not sure why i'm even bothering.
