Well, could be good, could be bad.

I actually found the English voice acting for 4's cast way better than the Japanese one, 4A's however was worse than the Japanese one.

Kunitsu Take-Minakata: A god of military matters in Japanese mythology. He also has traits of a hunting god and a god of fertility. He was in a dispute over the "kuni-yuzuri" with Take-Mikazuchi and lost to him. He fled to Shinano Province, where he was cornered, and was forbidden from leaving the Suwa region from then on.

Avian Zhuque: One of the Si Shengshou [TN: Chinese equivalent of 四聖獣 (Shi Seijuu), written in Chinese as 四聖獸, meaning "Four Holy Beasts"] frequently mentioned in Chinese myth and thought. It governs the direction of South, the season of Summer, and Wuxing of Fire. It is a large bird resembling a quail and chirps in five beautiful voices.

The protagonist is voiced by an actual tranny in english.
Source? The protagonist rarely speaks to begin with, I'm surprised they bother with a voice actor instead of having an intern or someone of the other voice actors do it. Unless you meant the latter.

Also, someone here really hates this game.

I'm not obsessed with random people's sex lives, so I couldn't give less of a shit about what the voice actor's into.

The quality of the dubs, though... they are letting everyone switch VAs freely, right?

People who would chose to play a a Japanese game with english voices are likely to be trannies so I guess it's catering to their audience?

It would be outrage if they wouldn't let people chose the voice language since it had been a standard feature for a decade or so. Even games that never in the past let you chose the voice actors are allowing it now. See newest Devil May Cry.

Don't be disappointment when a game you've looked forward to turns out to be bad. Be outraged. That feels so much better. I'm speaking from experience since I was super-hyped for WOTR.

Fairy Oberon: The king of fairies. He presides over all of the rites that occur among fairies. He is elderly, but his growth stopped at what it was when he was a boy because of a spell he received when he was young.

Some early game spoilers are floating around in the comment sections of the new SMT5 videos on YouTube. Be sure to avoid them if possible.

Also, TGS 23 min video:


Best to watch it here. Video might contain spoilers as well for those do want to go in blind regarding how the early overworld looks like (eg. map data).

I think she could be Eris, the greek goddess of chaos. She is usually depicted with a golden apple. As for the reason to make her look like Red Riding Hood, probably as you said, because of the werewolf guy. I think the headdress she is wearing may be similar to those use in Greek dresses, but a very liberal interpretation of the same.

Of course, I may be overthinking it and she is just Red Riding Hood.

Wait, that dragon thing was actually a new SMT demon? Jesus Christ, I thought the guy who posted it before actually posted a pokemon/digimon in the wrong thread or something.

Yeah I have no idea what its deal is. The fox from IVA wasn't any better, but at the very least it started off as a mascot companion.

They put a tranny as a voice-actor... For a character that doesn't speak? At least it's not an important one. Plus I'll prefer to use glorious japanese, of course... Once I'm sure there's an emulator it can run this.
