not those anons, but i didn't like the original all that much, so i'm not gonna play a remake either. plus atlus always inserts new ebin oc donut steels into remakes. frick that
you can buy the p3p port for way cheaper and get more content with 0 mtx. still doesn't have the fes content though and you can mod p3p content into fes if you emulate for the actual definitive edition as opposed to a mtx infested game with p3p and fes content removed. paying money for the worst way to play a game is baffling. it's a jrpg, it's not going to have massive gameplay improvements in the remake.
>play the god damn original
I am very curious to know how many anons on Ganker played the original. One of the main points I saw this place complaining about was the lack of The Answer which wasn't in the original.
Honestly the best take, with how bright they make this remake I feel like they've fricked up the vibe. Unless there is a teacher dating route, then I'm all in.
fpbp
Gaymers need to stop stupidly gobbling up remakes (especially bad ones), so devs will be forced to make more original games.
Even lowest common denominator movie consoomers know that remakes are generally bad and let them flop.
This
Why would I play a version that cuts out shit the OG version had?
I'll just replay the fricking PS2 game. I mean some fricking "REMAKE" they got here.
Its a jap games in a jap setting with Jap characters, of course I'll play it in Japanese
The fact that literal trannies and Black folk are voicing the dub is just what dubgays deserve
Junpei was voiced by Vic Mignogna in the original game so there's no way in hell with how the current english voice acting 'industry' is that they would ever let that slide
While the JP version is a mix of returning and new actors, the english side just wants to destroy everything that previously existed and rewrite in their own 'image'
Though who really cares, this shit is a visual novel in the end and the voice acting is all that really matters, mix and match the voice actors if that very small chance of anyone in the new dub being better at specific roles, only reason to care about remakes of games is so they are easier to mod.
>met Vic Mignogna once at an anime convention >he gave me a CD audiobook of him reading a book of the Bible
yeah, I'm gonna say Vic is based and I nice guy and I won't be convinced otherwise. He is the one person I can think of in the anime scene that was trying to bring Jesus to the stinky heathens that go to anime conventions
This and the new English actors being so painfully mediocre are why I'll go JP.
Really sucks because FES's dub might just be the only thing I like more than sub.
>Really sucks because FES's dub might just be the only thing I like more than sub.
It helps when you don't have the option to listen to the sub. Unless you're some kind of homosexual that emulated FES for his first P3 playthrough.
>spoiler
Most anons ITT werent even alive when P3 came out and throw a pissfit when they can't listen to their glorious nippon language they don't understand.
Remember when dual audio wasn't a thing in 99% of JRPGs?
At least these days you can find UNDUB versions of most older games that aren't garbage
(If hacking/soldering PS2s wasn't such a nuisance I would have played undub on real consoles.)
>Unless you're some kind of homosexual that emulated FES for his first P3 playthrough.
Yeah, they are homosexuals for playing the game in the best way possible
Outstanding no, but I'd say they were kinda good, barring the worst offenders like Ikutsuki anyway. They rarely sounded like they were phoning it in, which is nearly all I hear from the remake.
The problem is that if you buy it (Denuvo lmao, good luck pirating) then you are funding the Western side and contributing to them doing that more going forward.
I like dialogue with proper voice direction and that is natural sounding for the setting.
The dub has people having the hardest time pronouncing their own names right.
I don't have a personal investment in whether english voice actors can pronounce japanese or not but I always found it funny how the language with significantly more syllables/sounds can't adapt to syllables that 'don't' exist in another language
every single person in this thread who said they aren't going to play it is actually going to play and then whine non stop about it in every single thread for the next decade.
I am going to play the game and then not talk about it with Ganker, because talking about video games on this board is always a garbage experience. Especially if the game came out recently.
If a game gives me the option I will choose JP or mute them (VA is not a big selling point for me), but I don't understand what this even is, just the billionth P3 rerelease? Atlus rereleases more than Bethesda at this point.
They're adding voice acting to minor characters social links, some new costumes that are aesthetic only I think, and 30FPS > 60FPS
Also in typical fashion for a lot of remakes these days adding more battle mechanics that will trivialize the game even further, ah well
>REPRESENTATION MATTERS!!!!! how DARE you have a WHITE guy voicing Asian characters!!! >oh yeah but let's find a bunch of nogs and mystery meat trannies for the cast that's fine 🙂
It takes more effort to find this info than I'd like due to all the totally 'organic' amount of articles praising the new english voice actors
So I just went onto the jap reload website itself, and they don't list any changes for major characters
So while news articles have said 'mix of new and old' and others have said everyone is keeping their roles
(At least a few are saying they are re-recording all the audio though)
It seems like the only new stuff is the things that weren't previously voiced before..
Couldn't verify the dog voice actor.
Junpei's is the only good voice. You can tell Zeno was stoked to be his VA, he legitimately loves Persona 3. From the available clips, he absolutely nailed it.
>unironic dubhomosexualry
Why is this still a thing? It was understandable perhaps when most was 6yo watching 4Kids but I can only assume everyone’s literacy and mental capacity has improved since, no?
I'm still waiting for games to implement actual dual audio that let you change the voice of each character to specific languages so you can still listen to mostly JP and not be assailed by the obnoxious high pitch characters you hate (Not that being annoyingly high pitched is exclusive to JP)
I'm very conflicted, I wanna play it as I love the game and the characters.
I don't want shitty new voices, I don't want to support anything with Denuvo in it, and I don't want to give money for remakes.
If it ever gets cracked I'll play it but people here talking will make me buy it, It's like a drug to me... I haven't fallen for the full price game meme since Bannerlord this might be my other weakness
I think this actor is being pretty careful about not having any photos online based on their website
Which I don't even think is a bad practice in itself, the english voice industry is already colluding with itself so they don't need even more of a reputation boost by attaching a face to a name, especially if that face would get you brownie points.
I have never played a Persona game with English voices, in fact I don't think I've played any Japanese game dubbed except DNG2 and that was only because I preferred Hajime having a deeper voice.
Looking at the Western "Persona" "community" it seems like English voices are preferred by newcomers and the annoying drama-school kids that always hijack Japanese franchises
The FES english dub is great. Almost every character has some iconic line and it's part of the reason people are so revolted at the new dub. The VA's while not perfect, tried and it shows.
In fact if you played the Jap dub in FES you unironically missed out.
Why would the Ken VA be so embarrassed about how ugly they are that they submitted a drawing instead of a photo, but then they still made the drawing ugly as sin?
you know the reason japanese VAs are a selling point is because the industry in japan is fricking huge and is incredibly competitive, so only the good ones can rise to the top and become brand names.
meanwhile the english VA industry is mostly either people who couldn't become real actors in hollywood or nowadays twitter homosexuals who grew up with anime and think they can do voices or whatever
also, any kind of dub in general is made on the cheap. usually by just getting a single actor in a small recording booth with the voice director and just trying to record shit as fast as possible. so i'm really not even blaming the actors themselves for shitty performances, even the best actors will struggle to do good work under these circumstances.
it's just really strange to me how dubgays need to cope so much and now they're trying to make this a thing with putting VA names in trailers and shit as if anyone outside of twitter gives a frick
>putting VA names in trailers and shit
This confuses me too. If it was the returning cast then okay I can understand completely. But all these actors are fricking no name kids. No one fricking knows who they are. Who honestly gives a shit? Adding the names and showing they arent from the OG cast is just going to piss off the dub gays not get the excited.
Why would you play a very obviously japanese video game, with japanese artwork, set in japan, with themes and writing style common in japanese media...... and then purposely select the audio option that has americans mispronouncing words and being loud and obnoxious?
>mitsuru’s VA uses “cis queer” >ken’s VA uses “they/she” >but they’re definitely not gays/troonys though
I admit this isn’t exactly what I imagined dubgay cope was going to end up like 10 years ago
i'm not playing it period
why not
not those anons, but i didn't like the original all that much, so i'm not gonna play a remake either. plus atlus always inserts new ebin oc donut steels into remakes. frick that
have a nice day troony cumbrain
This. Big persona fan especially p3. They stripped the soul right out from it. Shoji meguro apparently carried the persona series
fpbp. frick remakes, play the god damn original especially for a remake like p3r that confirmed removes content and has shitty fricking mtx.
>STOP PLAYING WHAT I DON'T LIKE!
>better option exists
>for free
yeah dude pay $70 for actual fricking garbage because you're too dumb to emulate.
Emulation is soulless by definition.
you can buy the p3p port for way cheaper and get more content with 0 mtx. still doesn't have the fes content though and you can mod p3p content into fes if you emulate for the actual definitive edition as opposed to a mtx infested game with p3p and fes content removed. paying money for the worst way to play a game is baffling. it's a jrpg, it's not going to have massive gameplay improvements in the remake.

you're on your period?
Honestly the best take, with how bright they make this remake I feel like they've fricked up the vibe. Unless there is a teacher dating route, then I'm all in.
>I feel like they've fricked up the vibe
True though there are some parts that remained true to the original
fpbp
Gaymers need to stop stupidly gobbling up remakes (especially bad ones), so devs will be forced to make more original games.
Even lowest common denominator movie consoomers know that remakes are generally bad and let them flop.
It's been so long and I still can't believe how much ufotable fricked the dog on Rin's design.
This

I'll just replay the fricking PS2 game. I mean some fricking "REMAKE" they got here.
fpbp
Good games don't need remakes, and in this case it's even a demake
FES if I wanna replay as MC, P3P if I wanna manual with FeMC
I'm not playing persona 3 reload
>ken and mitsuru voiced by honest to god troons
at least my girl fuuka is safe
Neither is a trans afaik
Mitsuru’s new va isnt a troon, just really fricking ugly
Non-binary
Ken one isn't a troony, just chooses to use a drawing because she's moronic/insecure
Mitsuru's VA isn't trans and is fine, she voices Shamir in Fire Emblem Three Houses. She's actually my favourite recast.
Japanese obviosuly
We are lending you my wife Suzie yeung, you better treat her well, shes a good VA
Suzie Yeung is great, she's leading the charge of btfo the old bangzoom talentpool after the years of nepostism during the mid 2000s to late 2010s
>it's not ok to have whites or chinks voice black characters
>it's ok to have Black folk voice asian characters
interedasting
>>it's not ok to have whites or chinks voice black characters
No one has ever said this
>all new voice actors is a selling point
No
i dunno why they're even redubbing it unless they've changed up a lot of lines.
>ken VA is a troony and have to use a drawing picture of him instead
Ohnononono
what are those abominations on the right?
I don't care what a voice actor looks like, I only care about the voice.
>cis queer
so words mean nothing now
cis/trans refers to your body, queer/lesbian/bi refers to what you do with
why did you list lesbian twice and then say bi like its not just desperation move
Futaba's VA is a giant pig but she can do sexy voices fine. Don't really give a shit what they look like.
>black VAs for the dumb guy and the guy who dies
Why are Africans allowed to dub Asian characters? Why is voice actor for the kid in the bottom right represented by a catoon instead of a photo?
>Why is voice actor for the kid in the bottom right represented by a catoon instead of a photo?
you know why
The original actors were too old to voice over teens. That was 17 years ago.
What did you expect?
They've all been in recent stuff and do the same voices
Yuri has been voicing teens his entire career and Tara reused the Mitsuru voice unchanged in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Its a jap games in a jap setting with Jap characters, of course I'll play it in Japanese
The fact that literal trannies and Black folk are voicing the dub is just what dubgays deserve
>Plays with english text
Guess you didn't think this through.
I play games with voice acting turned off. Voice acting was a mistake.
Japanese since I have no idea why the frick they hired new English VAs
>listening to Black folk and troony
lmao the absolute state of dubgays
Why is Ken voiced by a cartoon?
if you play japanese games with american voice actors, you deserve all bad things
why can black people voice white people but white people cant voice black people?
muh reperashunz
muh dick
They can.
>japanese
>white
Sorry, when I say white I mean any civilized race with a pleasing skin tone
Junpei was voiced by Vic Mignogna in the original game so there's no way in hell with how the current english voice acting 'industry' is that they would ever let that slide

>japan: respecting/preserving the past but also allowing for new things
>west: destroy the past
Why are things like this?
>japan respecting/preserving the past
el em ef ay ooooooooooo
I doubt Atlus cares about associating with Vic since they rereleased P3P.
>met Vic Mignogna once at an anime convention
>he gave me a CD audiobook of him reading a book of the Bible
yeah, I'm gonna say Vic is based and I nice guy and I won't be convinced otherwise. He is the one person I can think of in the anime scene that was trying to bring Jesus to the stinky heathens that go to anime conventions
This and the new English actors being so painfully mediocre are why I'll go JP.

>Really sucks because FES's dub might just be the only thing I like more than sub.
It helps when you don't have the option to listen to the sub. Unless you're some kind of homosexual that emulated FES for his first P3 playthrough.
I did, but I don't think I was aware of the sub mod at the time.
>spoiler
Most anons ITT werent even alive when P3 came out and throw a pissfit when they can't listen to their glorious nippon language they don't understand.
Remember when dual audio wasn't a thing in 99% of JRPGs?

>Unless you're some kind of homosexual that emulated FES for his first P3 playthrough.
Yeah, they are homosexuals for playing the game in the best way possible
Yes.
If you didn't play Persona 3 on a PS2 in 2007 your opinion on the rest of the franchise is literally worthless and I wish your ilk was gatekept.
>the new English actors being so painfully mediocre
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. The original voices weren't particularly outstanding either.
Outstanding no, but I'd say they were kinda good, barring the worst offenders like Ikutsuki anyway. They rarely sounded like they were phoning it in, which is nearly all I hear from the remake.
I will be playing it with japanese voices AND jaoanese text because I'm not an eop.
You can tell how much companies care for a character, based on what ethnicity they cast their VA.
Really, 2 troon VA's? These golems are forced onto everything these days. Thankfully I never play Jap games dubbed.
The problem is that if you buy it (Denuvo lmao, good luck pirating) then you are funding the Western side and contributing to them doing that more going forward.
Are there no white people left in America?
Whites hate japan and refuse to work on japanese media so all the talent left is bipoc
the voice casting is done in california, and you get more esg dollars the more you discriminate against whites.
The absolute state. Do dubtrannies really..?
Why would you choose to listen to a language you don't understand?
I like dialogue with proper voice direction and that is natural sounding for the setting.
The dub has people having the hardest time pronouncing their own names right.
I don't have a personal investment in whether english voice actors can pronounce japanese or not but I always found it funny how the language with significantly more syllables/sounds can't adapt to syllables that 'don't' exist in another language
Can't learn if you don't listen.
Can't listen if you haven't learned

I am going to play the game and then not talk about it with Ganker, because talking about video games on this board is always a garbage experience. Especially if the game came out recently.
im genuinely not going to play it, same way that I never played P3P.
Why is the black guy allowed to voice a white guy?
>Stupei
>brownie
>Criminal dude
>black
Uhhh, kinda based?
If a game gives me the option I will choose JP or mute them (VA is not a big selling point for me), but I don't understand what this even is, just the billionth P3 rerelease? Atlus rereleases more than Bethesda at this point.

But why
The more you rerelease something within a decade timespan, the more it loses potential interest.
Darkstalkers been rereleased like thrice in a single decade and it always sold well, so i don't think that's how it works
Fightan is different, those autists play 25 year old games for hundreds of hours and hate change
>The more you rerelease something within a decade timespan, the more it loses potential interest.
Please forgive me Todd you are of course an exception to all this
>Viagra Clark
>REPRESENTATION MATTERS!!!!! how DARE you have a WHITE guy voicing Asian characters!!!
>oh yeah but let's find a bunch of nogs and mystery meat trannies for the cast that's fine 🙂
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG OOOOOUUUUUUT
Probably Japanese since it would be too strange without the old voices.
Granted I should probably play P5 first.
>not a single white person
remember, it's not about replacing white people in every single aspect of life.
There are 3 whites right there
wheres yong yea
Is that my boy Luke from STREETS?!
What about the japanese actors, are they the same or did Atlus hire a bunch of troons for that too?
Same, you can't really recast japanese VAs unless they frick up MASSIVELY
It takes more effort to find this info than I'd like due to all the totally 'organic' amount of articles praising the new english voice actors

my troonydar actually gave me a false positive
Yeah she's just italian

Nah
Why would the Ken VA be so embarrassed about how ugly they are that they submitted a drawing instead of a photo, but then they still made the drawing ugly as sin?
or he? is the only smart person there and kept himself anonymous from the eventual backlash his shitty voice will get
Regardless, they could have represented themselves with anything and made the conscious choice to use the ugliest image imaginable.
