Wuk Lamat VOICE ACTING APPRECIATION

[NegativeS]

This is certainly one of the conversations of all time going on right now, and is certainly has an amount of relevance to the topic at hand.

I really do wish that the mod(s) on this board were a little more proactive in dealing with worthless necros... but that would also necessitate that anybody at SE pays any attention at all to the EN forums.

Thank you, wuk lamat's english va

For taking a role that you were grossly unqualified for after stating vas shouldnt accept roles they're unqualified for
Under the pretense of mesoamerican cultural diversity and representation as a woman from louisville KY, while faking and exaggerating your accent to such a comical degree that you've got indigenous speakers wondering if you're doing a caricature
And putting so little effort into your work that you have people questioning the integrity of the development team all the way up to yoshi p himself

I appreciate your commitment to the bit

So your problem is with Square for hiring her?

Weird that you're blaming her then.

Also thank you for making me appreciate the VAs of languages I never even dared consider good. For the first time ever I listened to the German and French VA... And found them quite great! In fact, the German wukkie VA absolutely slaps. And I'm a German who otherwise automatically shuns our dubs.

You can really tell who puts soul and effort into their craft. Some of the German bits of VA give you literal goosebumps. I could actually feel sad for the character when dad lizard died. Maybe this one VA can just take over the English too. Would even have a natural accent, though not quite the correct one. But who cares, Sena is offensively faking the accent anyways.

Anybody who is seriously claiming there is no difference between the different VAs are trolling at this point. No other explanation for it. Nobody could listen to a comparison, hear the German VA scream and cry in anger and desperation, then hear English wukkie calmly say "oh shucks papa, seems u'r dead." then say they're the same...

I tell ya some people are just weird.
Coming to the a appreciation Thread and start hatemongering.
(and ignoring the horrendous harresment on the voice actress that got brought up)

Anyway after hearing some comparisons Sena sounds fine, really.

I can't state how much i loved the german VA for Wuk. Shoutout to Nell Pietrzyk, she did amazing.

This was already linked in another thread, but this scene is just awesome in german. I mean...just listen. That's an emotional delivery if I've ever heard one. Simply impressive voice acting in every way.

[Ayalu]

Oh yeah i play in german its she is awesome there. Usualy the german Voice Over feels rather restrained but some Voice Actors still give a really good performance.

FOr the record i dont say all the voice actors are the same i just say the English one is fine overall. I heard the english one delivered some good sad and soft performances.

[PercibelTheren]

I thought her voice was fine. Not gonna win any awards but definitely not bad. If anything, it's the voice direction that's off in DT, but that problem isn't only on Wuk Lamat. It's clear some VAs didn't know the context of their lines.

[Sekundessounet]

I was okay with it too, a few misses but nothing new to FF.

The French dub is quite amazing too. It was lackluster in ARR (like, listen to French Haurchefant in ARR, he's literaly reading his lines), but got better and better over the years, I'd recommend trying it out. Especially in Heavensward since it's very French-themed.

Jesus Christ she gave it her all there.
