Apparently I’m going to have to play this game muted.

I mean, really. What the fuck?

    This has to be a fandub or I don’t even…

    GARUGAMESH commercial tier. I have no idea how this got past QC.

    I think you’re being a bit too negative here.
    While Patrick Seitz, the trailer’s commentator, did a bad job doing this, it doesn’t have to mean that the game’s dub will turn out like crap. (Yes, I am “pro-dub”, as long as it is good). Let’s wait till we the characters’ actual voices.

    And to prove that this was a one-time bad performance, check the Disgaea 4 trailer, where he does a much better in narrating (watch the whole thing).

      I looked that guy up and half-expected him to be the voice of Snarf. He wasn’t, and I was disappointed.

      I’m with ya on dubs, though. When given a choice, I tend toward dubs. Though if a dub is awful or British (but I repeat myself), I’ll switch to Japanese. Or, in case of emergency, actually just mute the whole damn thing and turn on some Birthday Massacre or something.

    I was pretty excited for this game, but then I heard it was basically unpolished/bad and felt like an alpha version.

    I’d probably grab it if it was 20 bucks maybe now, lol.

    • Dark_Sage says:

      Same, if NISA only releases a standard edition. But day 1 if they have a premium edition. I love me some overpriced cardboard.

      • kayserlein says:

        What exactly do you mean by “British”? Made by Britains or with a froced british accent? The only “British” one I know is the Black Butler dub which I really liked and that was only with fake British accents. Are the Britains even doing dubs? All my UK DVDs and BDs have the American dub on them.

  5. Sheep says:

    NISA does dual audio , so we’re saved

  6. FalseDawn says:

    All American voiceovers sound lolsworthy to me anyway…

  7. stgmefly says:

    Wait… How do we know the whole thing sounds like shit?? There was only one voice

  8. Assasin_Cross says:

    This need to be dubbed by Dark_Sage

  9. 3173 says:

    Have you ever played any games published by NIS America? You should be used to this by now.

  10. returnity says:

    Wow. I laughed SO goddamn hard.

    I say it’s a pretty good copy of the Japanese trailer.

  12. Agni says:

    NISA always does dual-audio, just turn on Japanese.

    I like their dubs usually but hey, Japanese is always there.

    • returnity says:

      they include subs? did not know that.

      • Dark_Sage says:

        Yes, but Agni’s off about them always doing dual-audio. Some of their releases are English dub-only, and some of their releases (a much higher number) are Japanese dub-only.

        Hell, their anime is all sub-only.

        • Agni says:

          Their anime is sub-only, but most of their recent games have been dual audio–Mugen Souls, both Hyperdimension Neptunias that have been released, all the Disgaea games…this game will have dual audio, I’m 99% certain.

    • Maronji says:

      Except when they get screwed by unforeseen circumstances, like Atelier Ayesha (seeing how Gust was bought(?) by Tecmo-Koei), which may end up with a partial English dub and lost the JP track.

  13. Kenshin_sama says:

    That is some horrible advertising, but I might still give this game a shot.

  14. Marow says:

    And I just finished Boku no Pico.

    OMG How is this NOT great? I busted into tears!
