If there's anyone i'm glad is voiced by the exact same person, it's him. But it still does beg the question of why pretty much everyone else was replaced. If I had to guess, the old VAs were expensive, and Atlus jewed out and decided to bring him back simply because his performance is kind of irreplaceable.

>>748170085
Everyone would like better directing for dubs. But as it is, slightly worse english voices aren't a big deal. And it's totally fine to deal with in exchange for listening to a language you understand.

The bigger issue than dubs is translation.

So why ONLY bring back one (1) singular voice actor while replacing the literal entire rest of the cast?

Especially considering Atlus said literally just 2 months ago that they got new voice actors because they couldn't guarantee on getting everybody back, so they thought it better to just hire a whole new cast rather than have only a few actors return. Now they've already backtracked on that?

It just seems unfair. The other voice actors are gonna look at this and wonder what they did wrong to be replaced while Johnny Yong Bosch gets to come back with no issue at all.

I like dub because I remember a game story way better that just reading it. Also I can pay more attention to what is happening and it's much more immersive.

JYB has always treated anime and anime adjacent gigs, like JRPGs, with a certain passion and as far as I know he still hasn't unionized, so JYB is probably asking for pennies to reprise his role as Adachi

If you didn't know a general practice in voice acting, or even acting in general, is to renegotiate a better fee for roles you keep reprising over and over again, especially if you are unionized, so the old dub cast could have that leverage to try and bargain, but Atlus USA likely never called them to even start a negotiation, getting an all new cast, sans JYB, will be cheaper by default, they don't have any leverage to demand for anything since that's the first time they voice these characters, and from looking at the list none of them are union so they really don't have the means to strongarm any demands.

>>748170852
I don't enjoy english dubs because it's not my native language anyway. There was a time when rpgs came out in German, French and many more languages. You only know what you had once you lost it.

Anyway if i can't have it my way then JP it is. Dubs try to change the character often anyway and that's not their job.

Then why did they recast Narukami?

You cannot even begin to compare the JP voice acting industry to the US one, the Japanese industry is nth times more developed, competitive and resourceful, their voice talent can realistically aim to become something on the level of an entertainer with fans and stable income by reaching the pinnacle of that world, locking a role for life if possible.

The US voice acting industry doesn't have nearly the same number of working talents, not as brutally competitive, not as resourceful since it doesn't as fervorous fans, thus no flow of money to even consider that being your dream career, hence these voice actors often resort to unionizing and just hope they become Hollywood voice actors to work on whatever animation they do since that is way more "respectable" than dubbing games, much less anime games.
>>
>>748171479
Narukami and Adachi were never meant to have the same VA. That was just a localization thing to save money. I will miss Narukami’s old voice though

It's a gimmick. They did the same thing in the 3 remake where Elizabeth kept her voice actress and most of the old cast where different background characters. Also it's probably cheaper to get literal whos.
>>
>>748170613
It's self inflicted. American VAs were the ones pushing retarded "you should be recast if your race doesn't match the character" bullshit.
They established themselves as expendable, easily replaceable, their only worth being the color of their skin. Now they act surprised when they get replaced for no particular reason?
>>
>>748170613
Probably because Japan rightfully sees the English voice acting industry for what it is: a bunch of narcissistic, virtue signaling, union-backed, talentless theater kids. Do you know why Debra Wilson keeps getting roles? Because she shows up, she does her job, and she doesn't start drama. That's literally all it takes to be the most successful mocap/VA in the industry right now -- just don't be an insufferable faggot.

>>748172276
I don't entirely buy the whole Debra Wilson glazing. I saw the tweet about her auditions mogging the entire rest of the industry, but if that's the case why are these supposedly progressive devs only giving her throwaway, forgettable roles? Where is the game with her as the MC? Surely such an outstanding performance would deserve that.
What she is is dedicated, she stays in touch with the teams and everything, even years after the recording is done, so it's no wonder everyone likes her and wants to include her wherever they can.
And good for her, she seems like a genuinely good person, so I'm happy it brings her success, but "she's good at her job" is just them not wanting to admit to nepotism.

I have no idea why JYB came back and nobody else did, but he was the best VA in the original game so whatever. Shame about new Kanji and Teddie though, holy fuck that shit is so bad that I'm gonna have to play in Japanese.

Probably union since a lot of the old vas claim to want to come back but were outright never even asked.

JYB is apparently union as well, at least according to google. I have no idea how this shit works.

>>748170852
Depends on the person. I was always fascinated how some can just drop movie quotes out of nowhere. I can't quote movies or recall lyrics from songs i heard hundreds of times but when i read it I remember it, writing down works even better but that's beside the point.
>>
>>748172495
I never said her auditions were good, or that she does a good job. I said she shows up, does what's asked, and doesn't stir up shit. That seems to be the key for her success, not her nepotism I think.

If the industry wasn't filled with actually retarded woketards like ProZD and his asexual cow wife, Debra wouldn't be as successful. So it's less on her abilities and more on the fact that everyone else is an insufferable theater kid overdosing on wokeshit.
>>
>>748172950
Members can sidestep the union by working under a pseudonym, but JYB is being announced with his real name, so I don't think he did that.

>What is his name in english even
Johnny Persona.
>>
>>748172770
Same reason Elizabeth was kept the same in the P3R dub, it is all about money, Adachi doesn't have a fraction of the lines everyone in the main cast has, but he has some star power in the dub community so it is worth a shot to call him back.

Other side characters which also got recasted in the dub weren't voiced anyone as notable as JYB so there was no need to keep them.
>>
>>748170290
imo the only real loss was not bringing back Yuri Lowenthal and whoever voiced Teddie in P4G. I know Troy Baker and Laura Bailey were never coming back since they only do snoy movie slop these days and Yukiko's VA is a complete lunatic so it's good that they didn't bring her back

>>748170026
Revival Yu has a very deep voice. It doesn't really fit.
I know that in the Japanese dub, the voice actors are different, but I like the idea that Adachi is just Yu, but with a twisted mind. This makes them share a voice actor more thematically.
>>
>>748172770
I wonder why they choose a woman to voice Teddie. It sounds terrible.
>>
>>748173264
Voice acting in cutscenes adds a lot, though.

JYB is cool, there's a reason why there was a four hour line for him at anime con nyc.
