Seeing this in a Shenmue 4 thread without the context of the previous two posts is a bit of a heart stopper lmao. Thought you were hinting at insider info for a second.November 19th, 2020.
Yes I agree I have much confidence IV will improve a ton of what III lacked. I hope they just cut the VA for localization's and just subtitle the Japanese for all regions next go round, it would save a lot of money and give more dialog to the characters that need it.
I paid for English dub, others did too. With all that was wrong with VA in 1&2 once it got it in English, I still liked it better than hearing Japanese in the British copy of 2. Just because you guys like this or that, doesn't mean all should, sorry. Shenmue was all about speech, for realism. He talked about it comparing it to FF8. I hope he doesn't cut that very important aspect personally in the next one. Many arcades in the 3rd... Those he could have had, or not have. Pail toss I enjoyed a lot though, and wood chopping.Yes I agree I have much confidence IV will improve a ton of what III lacked.

Dude! Stop lying lolIt got cancelled. Didn't you hear about it?
Dude! Stop lying lol
I've heard how badly it was ran and the directors were incompetent to say the least.
Shenmue II didnt turn people off because it was JP dub with subs only. While some may express dissatisfaction at no Eng dub I personally dont think it's pivotal to the experience.
Oh yeah. You can't even compare the ENG dub from Shenmue1 to Shenmue2.This!
Infact I found the English dub mostly hideous, especially in S2, with the exception of Corey.
Don't even get me started on how awful Ren sounded in comparison to the Japanese dub.
Japanese, even when used in a Chinese setting, just feels more fitting.
I loved Ren in Shenmue II. Eric did a fantastic job, in my opinion.
Can't doing so would put me in potential legal trouble.Care to elaborate?
Yes Eric Kelso was easily the best English VA for Shenmue, but he was already a seasoned professional by the time he did Shenmue. Not to diss on the other primary cast either especially Corey Marshall as he made Ryo sound authentic.I loved Ren in Shenmue II. Eric did a fantastic job, in my opinion.
