Clearly you have very lol T and get intimidated by him. The dude is amazing lol. Go play some western garbage and stop bothering us.

I know, it doesn't eliminate all voiced lines though.

The problem is the clipped mode of speaking. He rarely reads the lines fluently, which is a big NO if I would have to listen to that drawl every second.

It eliminates all thoughts and only rarely narrates something, so what's the problem?

The narrator is good. The real dissapointment regarding the inner voices are the way they are presented. It doesn’t have to be different voice, but at least the actor could have tried portraying different kind of voices (dunno if he has the range).

But it does demand quite a lot and the director should be equally skilled. But overall what we got is pretty decent

I much prefer no VA over full VA, but as far as VA goes I thought this stuff was alright.

Strange,i kind off recognize them by the voice. Could be confusing them.

The best actor is the CITY for sure,it always makes me dick hard when i hear her .

A WORD ON PLAYSTATION PATCHES, BRÖTHER
BY:IDIOT DOOM SPIRAL
FREELANCE AD AGENT

Hey y’all,

Maybe blame it on the Doomed Commercial Area, birthplace of doomed dreams, resting place for every venture. Blame it on an incursion of the apocalypse in a localized space, or whatever Tequila Sunset hits you with. Blame it on a call to Abigail.

Or just blame it on us. Because it is our fault, that’s true. We’re all just human beings dreaming big, and not always making those dreams come true like we hope. But we’re going to try anyway, and try again, until we get it right. And we will.

Patch 1.3 is being worked on right now. We don’t have a launch date, but we wanted to tell you it’s coming, and tell you what y’all could expect.

• Tons of Voice Over fixes
• Improved Kim pathfinding
• Fixed controller interaction during Seafort Dream
• Fixed controller interaction with The Pigs
• Fixed Sandcastle interaction
• Fixed car interaction
• Fixed instances where the tide never receded near the swings
• Fixes pawnshop healing interaction
• Fixed Thought Cabinet freezes
• Fixed save game bugs
• Fixes for Cutscene locks and edge-case interactions with controllers
• And little bit this and that, general house cleaning after stormy development!

And that’s all we can say for now. We know it’s rough, we know it’s our fault, and we’re here to tell you it’s getting fixed.

Thanks for your patience. Keep the days happy.

Your pal,

Freelance Ad Agent,

Idiot Doom Spiral

I found this video about the skills and this is how i imagine it. Such wasted opportunity. Electrochemistry, shivers, authority and inland empire sounds so great there.

These readings were pretty cringe not gonna lie, they're trying too hard and it shows.

As opposed to the current narrator, who doesn’t try at all.

Its the eternal debate of mediocrity vs cringe, I'll take mediocrity.

i cried again in that dream scene if you sleep in the bunker in the end. fuck this game.

Can you lockpick bunker door? Dodge the bullet, reach Island before tribunal and saving Prime Junta when?

I'm approaching the end of the game. Playing with the full voiceacting kinda changes some things about the game I think. For one, as well-written as the game is overall, playing with full VA really makes some of the "world-building" dialogues drone on and on. Shit like talking about the cryptids, or listening to Doom Spiral's stories. You can click through of course but the VA made the parts of the writing that I didn't enjoy all that much on my first playthrough even less enjoyable now. Unfortunate side-effect I guess.

Just performance wise, it's a really mixed bag. Kitsuragi is great, Evrart is great. I think Klaasje VA absolutely nailed the character, maybe my favorite of the bunch. Cuno is less memorable now but also a bit easier on the ears given that you're listening to a lot of dialogue.

Some performances though... the Hardie boys are *terrible* overall. Titus has a good voice on him but his delivery is so awful and... he... takes...for....ever...to...say...his... lines...

The narration works better than I expected. Dude has a pleasant voice and keeps it fairly straight, which I think is probably a good thing overall. I was also enamored with the idea of all the skill-voices being acted out in their full craziness, but I think it works well as is.

Other than that, there are lots of little oddities here and there. Though I went in pretty much expecting the odd lines not being voiced, sometimes the wrong text, and stuff like some people on the phone having a "I'm on the phone" effect, and some do not. It's inconsistant but I guess not *too* bad given how much text there is in the game.

Game is still awesome overall, very enjoyable. Got the "dance-party" scene in the church for the first time, and that was just great.

Much more fan-art here.

the best wifu is the CITY!

Am I the only one that thinks this game was made for story fag woke libtards that are attracted to women who look like ugly men?

No, you are not. Here, come play with other retadred kids in that distant corner.

So I started a playthrough of the final cut, partly to get a more complete idea of what I'm going to hypothetically "fix" with my increasingly hypothetical "mod" that I've been going on about in this thread, and partly because I found out the Final Cut was compiled with IL2CPP, which is basically Unity modding kryptonite. It doesn't make the dream impossible, but it makes it really fucking difficult. Like, nightmarishly so.

And holy fucking shit. Everyone's been focusing on Cuno or Jean or Klaasje, but the whole first encounter with Evrart is utterly ruined. Both versions are effectively the same voice at a glance - a kind of nasally, high-pitched, slimy English guy - evocative of shitty internet pundits like Jim Sterling who, much like Evrart, are content to virtue signal from behind the comfort of a desk while the world around them burns. The key difference here, though, is that the original voice was much more subdued and professional. It gave off an impression that Evrart isn't anyone to fuck with, and he's a big deal. The new voice is like someone doing a comical impression of the original voice. It's over the top, cartoonish even, less so "Jim Sterling has trapped you in an uncomfortable chair and is reading you news about things you don't care about" and more so "you're still trapped in a room with Jim Sterling, but now he's doing that horrible voice he does when he reads comments from people who don't like him."

The worst part, though, is that the echo of "lost gun" is no longer his voice, which was (in my opinion) one of the strongest aspects of the encounter with him. Instead it's spelled out slowly and methodically by the skill narrator.

The voice of the horrific necktie rules though.

First time playing through the game, and there's enough backtracking from one end of the map to the other in this game to give Donkey Kong 64 a run for its money. Not really interested in replaying this; running around all over the place was a tedious exercise even during the game's more interesting moments.

I just picked this game up and it is funny as hell. I love talking to Gart

Evrart is the leader of a dockworkers' union currently engaged in a strike that has seized control of a vital transportation facility and intends to keep it permanently in any resolution with the putative owners. Although Evrart is certainly interested in preserving and extending his own personal comfort, he's also quite active in directing events, including

Spoiler

the murder of his predecessor, via the communist deserter.

I know, and this was gnawing at the back of my brain while writing the post. I'm sad to admit I really couldn't think of anyone else who sounds like Evrart, so I vastly simplified things to make the comparison work.

Point is, the new line delivery is shite.

They finally fixed "classic" VO mode. Narrator is fucking gone.

I much prefer no VA over full VA, but as far as VA goes I thought this stuff was alright.

I prefer a hammer on my head with the flat side instead of the pick one.
