What the frick? Why can't I use japanese voices in my game unless I'm in japan?
no one likes weebs
Probably some legal shit
No one likes hearing ugly bug voices.
Bug refers to chinks you moron
actually it refers to npcs like the people who adopt Ganker buzzwords at face value
>actually
>says the most moronic, unsubstantiated shit after that
Yup, this is 4chinkz
Hi newbie.
Hello chinkoid bug.
>Yup, this is 4chinkz
Where do you think the "chan" from "Ganker" comes from, newbie-kun?
>actually it refers to NPCs like the people who adopt Ganker buzzwords at face value
Shut the frick up subhuman bug
>mainland chink is a heckin mindless buggerino
>island chink is a sovlfvl free thinking white man
Slants that mindlessly labor in a Collectivist Society = Bug
It's probably to isolate the people who understand japanese from hearing it and going on twitter and saying what the real translations are.
Or so they don't have to censor the japanese voice and have americans cry about underage girls undertones.
>real translations
>of a korean game
dumb homie
shouldnt have invaded ukraine, pidor
dont know the details, but some japanese licensing can be really weird. its outdated, but they used to sometimes license japanese voices only for japan.
You will never be japanese
I just think japanese voices sound better, dunno why.
because if you heard them say all that gay shit in English, you would cringe to death
Because English speaking voice actors are often talentless and have obnoxious unprofessional attitudes, unlike Japan where voice acting has actual prestige.
Of course there are exceptions, but you should get the point.
Things always sound better in their native language
Cause you might get your fee fees hurt
>Censorship bingo
>Thinly veiled anti-Japanese racism (FREE SPACE)
Just put your OS locale to Japan, possibly your VPN if needed.
Licensing issues probably.
>buy great ace attorney on pc
>JP dub for cutscenes, but only copies sold to customers in japan get the version with japanese text
>have to mod the game to get japanese text
apparently naming a character sherlock holmes is still a no-no outside of japan in [current year]? at least that's what i heard was the issue.
Is the name still copyrighted? The books are like 100 years old by now.
Sherlock Holmes (the entire universe) went public domain last year (and the characters had already been for a while) but they probably don't care about updating it.
>It's against the law to use someone's character
>but it's okay to use that exact character as long as you just move one letter in their name around
copyright law is stupid
Because you don't even speak Japanese, you just turn on Jap voices with English subtitles, and then you miss all the action on the screen, and the subtle interactions between characters (making brief expressions at each other, etc), all the hours and hours of work that went into the background, etc. All you see is their faces sometimes, and the rest of the time you're just reading text on the bottom of the screen.
Why, and I mean frickin WHY would they want to give you the option to make hundreds of hours of their work useless, just so you can miss the entire point of the game and leave a shitty review?
You will hear the westoid VA
Licensing. Jap VAs have stronger contracts because they aren't complete jokes there.
lmao what game?

>Capcom
Ah, they're already forever blacklisted for the recent stance on cheats and mods
some of you young guys will have a better experience of life if you just blacklist these companies who hate you
Bot post?
>duhhhhhhh bot duhhhhhh
esl? can't understand something simple? brown skin? black eyes?
>wrong company
>needlessly aggressive with baseless accusations
Bot post.
why would a bot get the company wrong
your "logic" doesn't make sense. people under 40 can't really apply analytical thought i notice
being moronic and stubborn but still coherent is pretty indicative of being human
what the frick
????????
Huh. I was expecting a niche VN or JRPG, not a brownandbloom shooter.
Great, another company started doing this bullshit. Namco was doing it for a while now too.
>learn japanese to get away from western troonslators and crackprostitute VA's
>companies start to limit language options
Thank frick you can still trick pirated copies with some steamemu editing.
>Capcom
PlayStation wouldn't have this problem.
actually it does
stellar blade has japanese voices only in the japanese version
why are you responding seriously to a shitpost
>Crapcom
And nothing of value was lost
Which gayme? Is the JP version censored or something?
It's Japanese licensing frickery. Some Japanese talent agencies want to charge extra licensing fees if their voice talent is heard by foreign customers.
usually its the opposite and the japanese interface is the thing thats pointlessly gated. typically steam is good about this but theres a couple of weird ass exceptions, pic related. Though theres usually japanese text mods online.
good luck getting a japanese interface on the playstation though. for some reason hardly any games have it. And unlike steam, you can't just look at a language chart and check real fast.
And on the opposite end is, shockingly, the switch. turn the system to japanese (or any language you want) and every game works perfectly fine.
I got good enough at this language and all I want to do is play games in japanese now, and I would have been happy buying playstation games but this has caused me to go full pc gamer mode. So stupid that the era of region locking is over but theres still language gates hidden all over the place. frick sony (though I think its mostly just japanese companies doing it themselves for some godforsaken reason)
My guess would be that they could only license the Japanese VAs in japan.
what game?
sometimes they pay extra for language packs.
Japanese version seems cheaper than european one though?
a small bonus for Capcom's home turf
yurodollar strong
yen weak
yen is like 1600 for 10 usd now. used to be 1000 for 10
>Why can't I use japanese voices in my game unless I'm in japan?
They're scared of japanese people.
Your gaijin ears are not capable of handling the glorious and angelic sounds of the Nippon voices.
total weeb death
>troony discord rushes in to shill for westoid VA slop
lol
