Incorrect, the original dub of DMC is in japanese. Same with other popular english dub games like MGS (with the exception of MGSV which prioritized the English VO)

Hayter is the hack moron they brought back for half a dozen games when he wasn't even competent enough to voice the first one. Akio was superb in every game. He's only "iconic" to you because that's the performance you heard when you were 12.
And this is ignoring shit like Solidus making zero sense in English, because in the Japanese version both Pliskin and Soldius have the same VA.

You must be genuinely moronic or something. I just watched an undub version of MGS.
It sounds objectively worse. English is better because the voice acting is memorable and iconic. The Japanese is just boring. Akio doesn't have an iconic voice. Neither does whoever is playing Colonel Campbell in this. They both sound like generic as frick anime characters.

Because the literal setup for the game is that someone who says they're Solid Snake phoned in and said he was attacking the Big Shell. This makes ZERO sense if Solidus doesn't sound like Solid Snake.

Venom is voiced by Akio, though. He sounds just like Big Boss.
Your are kind of right but not entirely.
It's not that is bad as much that it's weird, most western products like movies or games are realistic and western, so seeing whites and blacks talk japanese is weird as frick, and on top of it, there's hardly any lip syn for the japanese, so it's even more weird.
Also, most western products are dubbed by people that work on movies, which are a tier below anime voice actors.
For games like Ghost of Tsushima I would go with japanese even if it's not the original, at least the PS5 version, it's just better in all senses.
Never really got why people jerk off over this game, it's just as cucked as every other piece of western media. Is it just because Sony owners don't have anything else remotely uncucked? It's kinda pathetic.
>Never really got why people jerk off over this game, it's just as cucked as every other piece of western media.
It released against TLOU2, troony adventure, so became a "rejection" of the woke shit because main character was a straight male.
I was quite surprised how little poz there was specially for a AAA sony game made by american studio, but of course they had to make the granny a lesbian and have a secret lesbian lover you have to rescue
I do so unashamedly.
I'm 31 and still a massive weeb, who has gotten to visit Japan on a few occasions now and still dreams about quitting his job to go work there or get rich enough to just be an American Melonpan minus the e-girl obsession
Visiting Tokyo show me I like city life, its just made me realize I don't like American city life.
Osaka is a ton of fun if you like night life.
I did the temples and museums a early on, and those are pretty cool, but aside from maybe a temple or two, many felt one and done. "I've seen it." sort of deal. I did really like Kiyomizu-dera and Fushimi Inari shrine. Fushimi Inari has a great mountain path you can walk up and its surprisingly long. The only downside is all the tourist that are always there. It hides much of the natural beauty unless you can break away from the group.
Kyoto has a really cool aesthetic to it that really captures that "japanese" vibe you get from old movies or anime like Kenshin. Obviously because that city is a major cultural hub they try to preserve it there. Very crowded with tourism, but very cozy regardless.
Nara is a nice quite town. Theres an amazing bar there called Lamp Bar, and visiting the bowing deer is comfy, but I was glad to make that a one day trip and not a long stop on my visits. I would like to visit that bar again though. The owner was great.
In Tokyo if you like bar life, visit Whales of August. A really cool place that makes all their drinks based on famous movies.
Obviously Akiba is there too if you are into Otaku culture. I personally love Akiba every time, but I could see the novelty wearing off on others who aren't as into it I suppose. I really liked the Ghibli Museum, incredibly comfy. (not in Akiba though)

Telling you where I recommend I suppose depends on what sort of stuff you are into, or what you are looking to get out of your first trip to Japan.
I felt like my first trip was very "touristy" despite mentally trying to avoid it (hit up major locations/temples etc,). Still loved it though.
Much of my time has been visiting various areas along the "Golden Route" of tourism in Japan which tends to take you from Tokyo, through Kyoto, to Osaka, and back. When I get to return I would like to explore further north to some more rural areas some time.
Tokyo is great and easy to navigate, especially if you stay near a train station. Its fairly westernized but still feels very "different" from what you may be used to in America (can't speak for Europe). Other cities outside of Tokyo less so, but not too bad. Google maps is your friend if you can't read anything and will help you even with train routes. (get a suica card or equivalent for the trains)
Doesn't hurt to look at some youtube japan vloggers for suggestions as well, but make sure you also maybe browse around for other stuff to do in the area. Traveling from place to place can eat up more time than you might expect, and a full day packed itinerary can get cut down fast due to lack of time.

Thanks weeb friend, I'm hoping to visit once tourism goes back to normal there.
No problem. Its a lot of fun, hope you enjoy it.
I'm waiting for normal tourism/travel again as well. I've basically saved my PTO all year for 2 years straight and had to burn through it in november/december, just hoping I could go back again.
Visiting Japan isn't going to drop you into an anime world, but its a great country that I was exposed to mostly because of anime/games, so I don't regret it.
I want to check out Fuji sometime, as I never did. My gf with my the last time I was there wanting to do it was not too keen on hiking long treks, and we already were walking a ton as aside from the trains that was our primary method of getting around.
What I listed in my previous posts are pretty commonly recommended areas, so much information about that "Golden Route" can be found online or youtube for suggestions on it or near it. I would recommend looking it up, as I didn't go too deep into much. Honestly Tokyo is seriously massive, and I didn't pin any one area down aside from maybe Akihabara.
If you nail down some major things you want to see or do well in advance, you can plan trips around that and see what other things you can do in the area, not just in Tokyo. I wish I had planned my first trip out a bit more in advance; it might have been less traditional touristy lol.
I would suggest packing a small pillow in your suitcase. If you get a Japanese business hotel, they will not have western style pillows in the beds, and I found them fairly uncomfortable. Some places will have fluffy western style pillows if you ask, but I never wanted to be the one to ask and just used a small pillow I brought for the long plane flight.
the combat feels really good. It's fast paced, challenging, the animations are excellent, it's rare seeing a good melee combat that isn't just Souls or DMC-like.
the visuals are also literally kino, and by that I mean they actually tried to make it look like a samurai movie and they pretty much nailed it
the only bad "western" thing about it is that they made all the characters look plain/ugly, despite samurai movie protags typically being quiet charismatic looking
ghost of tsushima is genuinely good
It's an open world ubishit style game where you actually feel rewarded for exploring, because many of the collectibles are actually fun and the game's artstyle and environments are absolutely gorgeous
the combat flows well and there are many ways to approach it, you COULD play a stealthy assassin homosexual or you COULD play a chad who walks up and challenges people
I did end up playing this in English dub. But mostly because when I tried the Japanese dub I found it too annoying to read subtitles in the middle of an action game, where you're moving/sneaking/fighting around I can't keep darting my eyes to the bottom of the screen to read what's going on.
I'd play the shit out of an MGS game that was less 80's action movie and more gritty like how a black op should be.
I bet I'm in the minority, however. People love the degree of goofiness in MGS
Japanese dub is shit because they don't subtitle the world conversations, which makes the dub instantly unplayable and thus made me drop the game immediately.
I played it full japanese. It's nice because the localizers corrected some things, like haiku existing in the 13th century (they use waka instead). Also a lot of nuance with speech, such as the mythic tale quests are told in very theatrical and flowery language. It's fricking great.
>Also a lot of nuance with speech, such as the mythic tale quests are told in very theatrical and flowery language. It's fricking great.
This, but the plebs will still b***h and moan.
>Japanese version has an altered script >subtitles subtitle for the English script only
Hate this shit. Same shit as when you play a Japanese game but the only subs are the altered English subs. I want the translation/subs for the version I'm playing.
If you mean text I don't play in Japanese unless the game was made in Japanese. A few exceptions to this rule with a few Japanese games who were clearly made for English first. DMC. Resident Evil.
If you mean voices I just set it to Japanese because these people are in Japan it'd be weird to hear them speaking in English for no reason.
Problem is that they put equal importance in casting for the game and outright said it would have a Japanese dub in the original trailer they had at Dorito Pope's show if I remember right. So yes, they used English VAs for those things but they made it a specific point to say it had a Japanese dub at launch as an advertising point showing they have both of them at the same prestige as the primary VA.
I hate ENG dubs because they often warp the language unnaturally to match the pacing and mannerisms of lines delivered in a Japanese style.
GoT is a game about Japanese people, who still very much have Japanese delivery and mannerisms.
If your reason is "oh it needs to be true to its origin" then sure you've always been a gay applying lofty principle to frivolity, but it makes perfect sense to want to hear Japanese People on a Japanese island speaking Japanese.
>it makes perfect sense to want to hear Japanese People on a Japanese island speaking Japanese.
Why doesn't anyone make this complaint towards MGS3 where the majority of spoken language should be in Russian?
It's almost like weebs are dumb and needlessly trying to justify using the Japanese dub.
Because complaining about shit that doesn't matter is your job, apparently. Go start the thread if you think it's got legs, there's plenty of replies to this one already.
I didn't mind the English voice actors but I played it the first time through in Japanese for obvious reasons. But I played it on PS5, and the "Japanese lip syncing" was outright bullshit.
Most pf the english VAs sound absolutely soulless and ill fitting for theur characters. Not saying all the jap VAs were great either, Yuna for example didn't work for me as well as english Yuna. But it's still a game about japs and the few actually good jap VAs the game have are more than worth it.
Weebs who listen to Japanese dubs on non-Japanese products are fricking moronic. >b-b-but my immersion
cope. You morons aren't watching monster in fricking German.
The english dub is absolutely atrocious. VAs trying to imitate japanese accent sounds so fricking moronic. "JIN, YE ARU E SAMULAI"
I have no idea why they do this shit.
So of course I played it in japanese on the director's cut on my hacked ps4.
Game was made with eng voice over in mind, the sub is the english.
Same for DMC. It was never about the language itself, but the original intent and direction.
Japanese dubbed media sound like fricking shit on western products
Jap dub has Zoro as the lead voice actor and Blackbeard as his uncle. It's far too based to pass up.
>one piss
Even more reason to never listen to the jap dub.

Working at a Japanese bookstore would be neat. Imagine reading manga before anybody else until the weekly embargo lifts

Eat my ass, homosexual.

Isn't that just Splinter Cell? MGS is like DBZ. The creator is a goofball but the fans clamor for the serious stuff.
Japanese dub is shit because they don't subtitle the world conversations, which makes the dub instantly unplayable and thus made me drop the game immediately.
It's set in real japan, so they should speak Japanese. though by memory the lip syncing was made for the English dub which was painfully obvious.
It's fixed in the PS5 version. There's literally no excuse to listen to it in the shitty english dub.
This is true and it's still bait. Well done.
I did JA at first but then I got tired of reading
If you play it in English you are a tasteless brainlet.
I played in Japanese and quickly got annoyed at how the lip syncing was off, it was a humbling experience.
The only Sony game I want on PC.

Hate this shit. Same shit as when you play a Japanese game but the only subs are the altered English subs. I want the translation/subs for the version I'm playing.
I wish subhuman westoids would either learn the language or suck it up and read the motherfricking subs. Dubs are the most soulless cancer ever.
best way to learn? I tried duolingo but discovered the only useful part was learning the hiragana etc
I have no issue with changing the script for a dub, I just would prefer if they actually match what's being said in either language.
is the dlc worth it?
The ending was so predictable and lame after beating the khan
Yuna alone makes EN unplayble and Shimura isn't too great either. I also wasn't a fan of Jin's VA but at least he was trying.
I played with Japanese dub on PS4. This game should've won and not TLOU II. Even Playstation fans were pissed.
played it in latinamerican spanish, it was glorious.
If you played Ghost of Tsushima while having a penis larger than 2 inches hard you did not beat the game.
If you play FPS games without living in the Americas you are a hypocrite
If you mean text I don't play in Japanese unless the game was made in Japanese. A few exceptions to this rule with a few Japanese games who were clearly made for English first. DMC. Resident Evil.
If you mean voices I just set it to Japanese because these people are in Japan it'd be weird to hear them speaking in English for no reason.
I played it in English with color and I don't care.
Does the voice acting sync up with other languages? That's the biggest barrier for me.
They claimed that the lip sync now works with either English or Japanese in the PS5 version, but when playing in Japanese it still looks off.
Face mocap was recorded in English so that looks the best.
Shame. CDPR really needs to share the love with their voice animation tech.
I played it in english mainly because I remember sometimes the subtitles wouldn't translate the background npc conversations or something like that.
DOSHO needs no translation.
Wrong.
It was made to be played with Japanese voice acting, just like Metal Gear Solid games were made to be played with English voice acting.
No it wasn't. The characters are modeled after, and mocapped by, the english cast.
Problem is that they put equal importance in casting for the game and outright said it would have a Japanese dub in the original trailer they had at Dorito Pope's show if I remember right. So yes, they used English VAs for those things but they made it a specific point to say it had a Japanese dub at launch as an advertising point showing they have both of them at the same prestige as the primary VA.
>Japanese audio
>subtitles: off
>Kurosawa mode
>don't speak Japanese
Yep, it's time to play Ghost of Tsushima.
I hate ENG dubs because they often warp the language unnaturally to match the pacing and mannerisms of lines delivered in a Japanese style.
GoT is a game about Japanese people, who still very much have Japanese delivery and mannerisms.
If your reason is "oh it needs to be true to its origin" then sure you've always been a gay applying lofty principle to frivolity, but it makes perfect sense to want to hear Japanese People on a Japanese island speaking Japanese.
ghost doesnt have an english DUB. its literally an english game, created and written originally, in english. the japanese is the dub.
Nobody said otherwise, read it again.
>it makes perfect sense to want to hear Japanese People on a Japanese island speaking Japanese.
Why doesn't anyone make this complaint towards MGS3 where the majority of spoken language should be in Russian?
It's almost like weebs are dumb and needlessly trying to justify using the Japanese dub.
>why doesn't anybody complain about other game
Because complaining about shit that doesn't matter is your job, apparently. Go start the thread if you think it's got legs, there's plenty of replies to this one already.
なぜでしょうか
Tomoe did everything wrong.
Why wouldn't you play a game set in Japan about Japanese people in Japanese?
I didn't mind the English voice actors but I played it the first time through in Japanese for obvious reasons. But I played it on PS5, and the "Japanese lip syncing" was outright bullshit.
Most pf the english VAs sound absolutely soulless and ill fitting for theur characters. Not saying all the jap VAs were great either, Yuna for example didn't work for me as well as english Yuna. But it's still a game about japs and the few actually good jap VAs the game have are more than worth it.
>playing an actual weeb game
>Japanese voiced by Zoro
>English voiced by literally who
>Japanese voiced by Zoro
>Flags a shounen anime side-character as a remarkable VA worth going sub for
this is your brain on weeb culture
anon how would you know that? and those terms?
I'll play it in Japanese whenever I get around to buying it, just as I did with Sekiro.
Weebs who listen to Japanese dubs on non-Japanese products are fricking moronic.
>b-b-but my immersion
cope. You morons aren't watching monster in fricking German.
I'm not gay, or trans. I don't own a ps4/5
They don't prefer dubs because they like the original language, they prefer dubs because they think Japanese is superior
The Japanese dub is frickign kino. Jin's voiced by Zoro, what else do you want?
一番では誰だ?!
Isn't it 一番手は誰だ?
Anyone else still playing legends? It's pretty fun.
I play games in japanese because I like japan.
Eat shit.
No I'm not, I listen to whatever dub fits the setting
I unironically refuse to believe that all you morons arguing about this actually bought and played this game
Consider this:
>Almost all western voice actors all suck because nepotism and wokeshit.
The contrapositive of that would be that you would watch anime in English if the voices were better in English.
Which you wouldn't.
Hope it's coming to PC, I wouldn't mind playing this again
supposedly leaked already, just hasn't been any announcement
I played it in English and I play Japanese games set in America in English
Frick you
Kino of Tsushima. I put more than 180h in it including dlc and pve. Good stuff
I'm waiting for the PC version to replay it with the DLC and hopefully some mods.
Sekiro is better than Jap Ass Creed
>playing AAA movie games at all
The english dub is absolutely atrocious. VAs trying to imitate japanese accent sounds so fricking moronic. "JIN, YE ARU E SAMULAI"
I have no idea why they do this shit.
So of course I played it in japanese on the director's cut on my hacked ps4.
