>>741632998https://x.com/squishomaton/status/2068866604302041160WTF is wrong with the new VAs?
>>741633215Everything
>>741633215dios mio...
>>741633215ITS SO BAAAD AAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGHHHHHHH
>>741632998he's so cute
>>741632998>Sorry to jet, but my pizza is getting cold
>>741633215Rough around the edges, they'll be better in the sequel :)
I bet you won't be able to down friendly units during the Katina mission.
>>741633708Husky unit, cover my asshole
>>741632998When I emulate this I'll use jap voices for the first time ever
>>741634204emuating switch 2 :(
>>741634204
Using the superior Brazilian dub, nobody can voice monkeys better than us.
>>741633625we just need to support this one so they will let us have that
>>741634824Kek
>>741633215Modern voice acting has actually got really bad in the last decade. In general PS3/30 era games had better voice acting than PS4/PS5 games. Compare Dead Space to Dead Space Remake for clear obvious 1:1 example.
Its just more faithful to the Japanese version which was a lot more serious in tone.
>>741633215The voice acting is such a huge downgrade it's enough for me not to bother with the remake64 had good VAs saying cheesy lines. That's a recipe for soulful and memorable quotes that are still relevant today. The remake has shitty VAs saying noncheesy lines. It's just generic and completely forgettable.

>>741632998>I've got a couple of pizzas to pick up
>>741633625Velan shouldn't be allowed to touch Star Fox ever again, next game should pretend this one doesn't exist and be a direct sequel to the original 64, original designs included
Why does falco not have the ey im walked here voice anyone?
>>741634621Just play star ship and mod in the cutscenes, they can easily be clipped from youtube and spliced into the game
>>741636303Velan made an entire new engine for this game, I'd say they're pretty locked in for whatever is next :)
>>741632998I planned on getting this game on release, but it hasn't shown enough new content to warrant it.
>>741632998>Gotta speed team.. monday meatlover's special
>>741633215Nothing. Twitter Uncs are just bitching about it because it sounds different from what they're used to. You see these idiots say things like>All the new dialogue sounds good, but the repeated lines sound bad!That's just nostalgia for the campier lines. But expect a couple video essays on this from your favorite Nintendo critics.
>>741638090>Uncsjump in front of a moving train already
I thought you were just trolling. What other lines are they going to ruin?>Caimen reporting, everything is okay.>Do you hear me? Execute emergency plans!
>>741638196Nah, I'd hit all 8 switches
>>741633215
>>741638090sorry but I can't take the game seriously when half the characters sound like the nintendo direct VO
>>741632998Original:>Who ARE you guys?!>WE'RE STAR FOX!Energetic, punchy, delivered with emotion, hype as all fuck, makes you punch your fist in the air.Remake:>Who are you guys?>We're Star Fox. Tell your boss we're coming for him.Flat, wordy, emotionless delivery, sounds like two people formally introducing themselves, makes you feel secondhand embarrassment from how awkward it all soundsWhat the actual FUCK are they thinking?

>>741638090bad faith argument imo
>>741638493If you were gonna buy the game, is this enough to dissuade you? Would you consider getting it in a different language?
>>741638746Do you think they made it bad on purpose because they thought people liked the original line deliveries were "bad" (ie sincere) and thought they should make all the new dialogue shit? Or is it because the development team are a bunch of soulless shitjeets?
>>741638978Not dissuading me in the slightest, the gameplay is great as ever. Also the demo comes in something like 20 languages - I' not concerned about needing a copy in a different language.
>>741638090>>All the new dialogue sounds good, but the repeated lines sound bad!No, none of the new dialogue sounds good. It all sounds terrible. It sounds like the writers sat around at 6am for a blind table read of the script with zero emotion or inflection added and then just recorded that and called it a day.
>>741633708you can still down your teammates so I don't see why that would be the case
>>741639265Cool. I'm seeing some comments that the Japanese dub is more energetic, addressing the complaints above.
>you WILL pay full price for a game that takes an afternoon to beat
>>741632998Man, why is almost EVERY line I hear delivered with either odd cadence or just no enthusiasm what so ever? I'm not asking for pop culture references, but nothing sounds good outside of the out of battle stuff. Guess I'll have to play it in Japanese if I want to have fun.
>>741638746It was a different time.
>>741639406Well, 50 bucks is certainly better then 60-70-80, but yeah. Should be 40 at most.
You know what I thought 64 needed? A whole bunch of bloat. I need 5 minute cutscenes between planets and super serious no fun allowed mercenary western cinematic blockbuster character designs and tone.I definitely wouldn't rather be playing what feels like a saturday morning cartoon movie special, nope, i need western fag writing.
>>741639208I think it's a combination of:>thinking the original line reads were too "cheesy"Makes them want to "tone it down.">wanting to more closely match the Japanese scriptMakes all the lines wordy as fuck because they're valuing literal translations over making the script actually good.>hiring bad/inexperienced voice actors and giving them little or poor directionMakes all the delivery end up even flatter and lazier sounding than intended, which amplifies the above problems.
>>741638746>makes you punch your fist in the airjajajaja
>>741639460A better time. A more fun time. Before everyone became so irony-poisoned and insecure about just enjoying fun things.
>>741633215>>741633479Andrew is the only one that's actually better.I am pissed they killed one of my favorite interaction. "We're StarFox". That's it. Now he answers like a faggot and add "tell you your boss etc", when he is blowing up.
>>741639710https://youtu.be/pqlmkTShsYI&t=14If this doesn't get you viscerally hyped and physically excited, you're fucking dead inside.
>>741639953>Andrew is the only one that's actually better.They ruined his characterization completely. He's Andross's nephew and only on the team because of nepotism, so it fit perfectly for him to sound like a whiny, snot-nosed brat that nobody likes. Now he just sounds like some generic guy you might overhear at a mall.
>Leon
>>741639326Your teammates retreat, the Katina ships get destroyed.
>>741632998>Sorry to jet, but I've been holding in a piss for almost an hour
>Remakes>EverALL remakes are shit.
>>741641536they had their bladders amputated, because of the g forces
>>741642376>bladders amputatedAssuming you mean removed; Cystectomy for my word nerds out there
>>741639772Not beating the Unc allegations talking like that
>>741642515>>741642376G force has nothing to the with the bladder.More likely, jet fighters can damage the blood vessels in their eyes from extreme G force acceleration. you are more likely to become blind, then incontinent
>>741642881>>741642515they amputated the bladder of each animalit's because of the G forces
>>741642742You think I give a RAT'S ASS that you think I'm an unc?
>>741644531ok boomer
>>741633215this + indian devs = no buy
>>741644598
>sorry to jet, but i have a doctors appointment at 5 and that is 36 minutes from now and its a 20 minute flight and i still need a shower
>*hold gun to enemies head*>tell your boss we are coming for him>shoots guy in the head and then naruto runs awayyeah this is the sort of spastic interaction i would expect from nintendo actually.
>>741633215Wait, I thought OP green text was just a joke. Like those fake movie quotes. This can't be real. THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!!!
>>741641297do they still die if you fail to save them to get to the other paths?
>>741633479Time to Monkey
>>741635354desu it seems like the lack of a theatrical acting background really cripples them. it was common for VAs to have that back then, even if they were solely voice actors. now every tom dick and jane with a youtube channel and a friend in the industry does """voice work""" despite not being able to do it competently.
>>741646380It's not that at all. The actors could've seen what 64 was like and be aware of how the lines in that were. The voice acting director did this shit on purpose. It's bad on purpose.
>>741646380voice actors 25 year ago became niche icons too
>>741633215where's the crunch of the short wave radio? this is like lossless studio quality. what a load of shit
