These were such a lackluster effort. They really should've voiced the damn skits. Some of them went on too long.TizzytheTormentor said:Sometimes, like in Tales of the Abyss, the skits aren't voice acted so I imagine them talking in their voices as I read it.
Maybe they couldn't get the script for EVERY skit in the game? There's only over 500 of them, and about a third of those are really, really hard to get (i.e. most people won't even see them) since you have to meet very specific conditions to trigger them, often in a very specific order. And of course there's the incredibly small event window for those things (one of my main complaints with the game - half the content is easy to miss if you're not looking). Maybe they figured they couldn't do all of them, so why make a half-baked job when you don't have to do it at all?TizzytheTormentor said:Strangely, they were voice acted in Japanese, but not in English, no idea why they didn't do it for the English release, time constraints perhaps?Johnny Novgorod said:These were such a lackluster effort.

Waaaaaait, when did you change your avatar? I kinda like it. Also I do the same when playing Tales games where some of the skits aren't voice acted. I just make the connection between the face and the text and the voice that I've gotten used to is part of it.TizzytheTormentor said:Sometimes, like in Tales of the Abyss, the skits aren't voice acted so I imagine them talking in their voices as I read it.
In the previous game, Legendia, Namco had a huge falling out with the voice actors over if the skits were main story material or extra sidequests since it would affect how much the voice actors were paid. In Abyss they wanted to avoid that mess entirely or were cheap so they decided not to voice them.TizzytheTormentor said:Strangely, they were voice acted in Japanese, but not in English, no idea why they didn't do it for the English release, time constraints perhaps?Johnny Novgorod said:These were such a lackluster effort.
