Add Voice Acting in Normal and Alliance Raids please

[Atelier-Bagur]

So I was surprised that the last cutscene in the Pandaemonium raid ending was fully voiced and as far as I can remember this is the 2nd time theyve done so throughout the whole game, with the 1st being the last cutscene in Binding Coils in ARR (complete with cgi cutscene, which I sorely miss seeing in this game besides the trailers).


This shouldnt be an issue with SE at this point because they have the funds needed for doing this. Could we please start seeing voice overs for the raid series come 7.0?

There is voice acting in the raids already. I think you are referring to the cutscenes.

Yes this is what I meant

Would love if they went back and added full voice acting for all the Main Story and Main Raid series. XIV always feels disjointed with it's voice acting vs. scenes that aren't. Love it when it's there though and always in favor of more.

at this point im surprised they dont just make every cutscene in msq fully voice acted.... especially after being proud several times over the last few years about having so much voice actibg as never before

The price of it alone, in 4 languages and it would seriously slow the production.

The price is the main reason any proposals to have it done will likely get shot down when given to the people who control the money . Unless they go the route of having only Japanese voice acting, with all the text being translated. And if they did that, I can guarantee you there is going to be people who complain about it.

Justifying the cost of the voice acting for 100% of the MSQ would be a hard pitch.

Extremely hard. The amount of actors hired due to the four languages they cater for can range from $200-400 an hour per VA


The upside would be wonderful voice acted experiences for us everywhere . The downside would be , quite possibly, that SQE would look to make much more cash shop only items and probably make the most popular shop category items outrageously expensive to recoup costs because they wouldn't with just subs alone.

Game Defenders: MSQ IS THE MAIN POINT OF THE GAME! UNSUB IF YOU DONT LIKE

Also the defenders: please understand poor company cant voice act all the MAIN CONTENT cause too much work and money

Another issue is trying to get the voice actors scheduled to do the work (that is if they intend to keep the same voice actors). Good voice actors have busy schedules and generally need to be booked well in advance. That would mean also having final dialogue set in stone well in advance. Last minute dialog changes would leave the previously recorded voice acting different.
