Voice Acting in S4

Yeah, he did sound like Wynn. I'm not sure either though.

Also, it may just be my Canadian pride clouding my ears, but did Colton (Who had a very good voice choice, in my opinion) sound like that Canadian great, Leslie Nielsen, doing a gravelly deeper voice than usual? =o

Colton to me sounded like that guy who was the dean in Animal House. What the hell is his name????

voice acting has been a new thing on suikoden 4, but it certainly is a nice attempt to incorporate this feature. it certainly can use more practice and the emotions and tone portrayed by the characters in the English language doesn't match the tone portrayed in the Japanese one. i'm fluent in japanese and watching shows and anime in both english and japanese clearly shows my point.

Well i wasnt really happy of there voice acting cause it was odd when they talk so long then they ask u a question, your hero just stays quiet like he doest talk. I think they should have add voice 2 a hero when ever u choose a sentence for him 2 talk too. He can use his voice 2 act either of the 2.

It was really odd thought with some of the voices had no emotion or anything there sorta like a talking dead person. Hopfully in the future they add some really good voices and more acting.

Let's hope that does happen... Some of their voices are really very monotone and not that skillfully done. But Konami has to take into account, how much membory that will consume. We're gonna have to hope they do something about it... But as of now... we can't really say...

Hey, if Wing Commander can shoot footage for a game that would a movie three times over [just don't get me started on the actual movie, lest you wish to join me in bashing it heartily or die by my wrath: your choice], and fit that on *thinks* what amounts to the same amount of disk space as a DVD, or less [six CDs for Wing Commander IV, I think it was, but only four for Wing Commander III], then Konami can pretty damn easily fit a little extra voice acting - audio, no video! - on a single DVD game.

Trust me, space concerns had nothing to do with the lack of a voice actor for GS4.

I felt the voices weren't necessary.
It's a nice feature, but I think this wasn't done well script wise. It annoyed me a lot when they couldn't say the hero's name since he has no name. They could of just made the script so the characters never say his name at all, like in FFX. Also, there are a lot of characters to take care of, so having them talk maybe more cost efficent.
I prefer the facial expressions more, but that's just me. I found Suikoden 3 did the the facial expressions very well.
I can't compare the voices so I'll judge them on how well they fit the characters.
Lino I do agree had the best voice. It was kind of laid back, but had a strong tone to it as well.
Dario I liked since it suited his character and quality wise he fitted the character well.
The worst I'd have to say would be Pablou(sp?). I was kind of expecting him to have a deeper voice, plus it sounded like he was whining a lot.
Quality wise, I'd say Ramada or Mizuki. Voice wise they're fine, but they didn't seem to have that much emotion in the characters either.

Graham Creay sounded to me, more like Meier Link from Vampire Hunter D.

Anyway, Brandeu's voice was Steven Blum, I didn't know this until the other day, but it doesn't surprise me, he's one of the best voice actors around.

The best voice acting in Suikoden 4 has to go to Ted. I really liked how his voice sounded EXACTLY the way I thought it would. However hot Kika's voice was, it didn't fit her. Her voice should've been lighter and higher, she sounded WAY too much like a guy.

If I have to hear reinbach or Mickey ever again, I will shoot myself.

Besides that, the voice acting wasn't stand out, Ted, Lino, and Jeane were probably my favs. I wish Ameria had had a longer part and more voice acting, plus more character/screen time, in fact, the only thing I wish she had less of is clothing. :wink:

The voice acting was a good change but I really didn't like it. It made me even more fed up with the hero not having a personallity. If Voice acting made its way into suikoden 3 then I probably would have liked it a lot more. And on a side note, Jeanes voice was great.

At first, I thought Graham Cray's voice was done by David Lucas voice of Spike from Cowboy Bebop, I know the voice of Helmut is definetly Richard Hayworth, voice of Kenshin and Legato Bluesummers from Trigun. but I wonder who does Sigurd's voice?

Eh, I don't really care for voice acting. I just play the game and accept what is thrown at me and tolerate what annoys me. I didn't have a problem with anyone's voice. The only time I hated Rita's was when we were playing that DEATH game. (I have named it the DEATH game for personal reasons) But other than that I kind of liked all the voices. The one I liked the most was Ted's though. I liked it so much. Seeing Ted in this game... made me want to jump his bones... Is that good? O.o

Also, I wish the main charaacter had a voice.... that way it wouldn't feel so awkward at times.... It think it's kind of funny when they give him an extreme close-up when he makes a choice... like everyone's excited that he might actually SPEAK but when you choose it goes all back to normal like... "Aw, dang! He didn't speak after all!"

"Chiepoo/Reinbach/Micky - Most annoying "

Not Chiepoo, you should have added Setsu, his voice annoyed me terribly.
