So now that a certain NPC's VA has changed...

[Chasely]

Looks like Cid, except less workaholic and more flamboyancy.

He reminds me of a dirty-faced hobo with ratty hair and ill-fitting mismatched clothing. that said, I wouldn't mind so much if the new voice actor wasn't so bland. he's taken all the appeal out of my favorite character.

Yeah. To my eternal sorrow. :'C

Odd, the VA did an interview a while back on Gamer Escape and he said he knew about the HW plot which seemed to imply that he was still around.

He was probably on his way out. Actors who aren't vested in a project anymore have a tendency to be rather loose-lipped about what they worked on.

Thancred is a workaholic and Cid isn't. Thancred ran himself ragged trying to fill in for Lusiaux while Cid never shows up for work at his own business.

To be fair, Cid is usually neglecting his business because he's working on some pet project. It isn't like he's kicking up his heels waiting for us to come to him with another world saving project.

Though yes, Thancred has a history of working WAY too hard.

Have to say I was very disappointed hearing Raubahn with a new VA. The old one really did his character justice and made you fear him. New one just really doesn't do him justice.

Yeah I really don't like his new voice. It lost a lot of heart.

I was wondering about this too - at one point in the interview, when asked about his favorite lines, he says most of his favorites were in the expansion so he couldn't talk about them, which would imply that they had him voice his lines and still had someone else come in and replace him later on.

That's...kind of a dick move, SE.
