PS4 FF7 Remake

In the big scheme of things though, I'm more worried about the dialogue localization and the voice acting. The Japanese flow of speech does NOT have the same cadence and structure of English. Nor does English sound the same when translated to Spanish. or French. Each language has it's own flow of speech, and the translations always sound a bit...off. (Looking at YOU FF10). For example Look at FF12 (a game with a great voice cast, and a decent translation imo) and compare it to, say Dragon Age: Origins. (Also a fantastic Voice Cast ((some of the same people even)) ) Does one game have a better written script than the other? a better story? Debatable. That's up to opinion. BUT, to an English speaking audience, DAO SOUNDS better. ...because the script was written by, for, and in English.

A simple translation job with minor localization differences may (kind of) work for the text-based games of the past, but voice acted, spoken dialogue? Not so much. Now, I don't expect game companies to hire an outside group of native speakers to do an entire language rewrite for every game they translate... But I DO hope they hire a good localization director and cast that can make things flow.

....but honestly, if they are going with the Advent Children cast? *sigh* I don't really have high hopes at all. My fingers are crossed that it will be dual-audio or have the option to turn the voices off...I can't sit through another ff10.
