Is it me or did some of the voices in this game sounded kinda awful? And what I mean by that is they killed Hideyoshi's voices really badly in this game. What ever happened to his SW2 voice!? Sun Jian sounds like he has a really bad cold when he is talking. Most of the other officers (generic) all sound like half dead robots. :S So what did you think about the voices? Do you agree or disagree? Opinions? And please state your reasons so that we don't spam up the thread.

True. And the non-generic ones sound a bit dead too. Hideyoshi's voice is the worst voice-> character match I have ever heard... I'm sure it'd be good for Bugs Bunny's dumb inbred baby rabbit but ugh. Even KEIJI has improved. I could complain about some aspect of most of the SW voices (seriously, they're not even TRYING with Ranmaru any more - doesn't anyone GET that he's a BOY?), but I won't. I can accept a lot of them as "distinctly average" but none of the SW voices are what I'd say are "good" (except Kunoichi, but anything's better than her incessant HEHEEHUEHEHUHUHUHHH" every five seconds <_< )

Anyone else notice that Yoshimoto sounds a LOT like Muri from Devil Kings now? ;)

Wei Yan even sounds more like a "primitive" who has'nt had much experience with language or other people.

Definately Hideyoshi as well...

All I've come across or remember as of now.

I thought most of the voices were ok, and the only ones i dislike are Nagamasa's and Hideyoshi's. Damn you koei, Asai had an awesome VA!

Hideyoshi=LAWL

Its so bad its funny. Ishida's new voice is growing on me, but i still like his Sw2 voice the most. Akechi's new voice isnt bad either ;p he dominates with the ice element..

I mish yoshihiro's musou cry from SW2 :(

Most of the SW2 voices are worse. Mitsunari and Keiji were improved though.

Oh and I seriously thought Kenshin's voice could not possibly be worse then his terrible SW2 voice...but somehow they managed to find one worse for WO :blink:

I really don't like Hideyoshi's new voice. Should have kept his SW2 one. I hope it's still the same for SW2: XL... Hanzo's new voice is kinda mediocre. And I miss Crispin Freeman as Guan Yu. Hope he comes back for DW6.

Since I've never played Samurai Warriors, I actually grew used to his voice. As for Ranmaru. and I quote," HE IS A BOY, HE SOUNDS LIKE A GIRL NOW."

Generics too," Damn .. it's all over .. " They sound so boring.

I hated Asai's old voice, he sounded like a 12 year old talking on X-box live.

To me the voices aren't a problem. I just need to play a few more times and get used to it.

Wait until Lu Bu's throw special instantly takes away 2+ healthbars from you and ruins a perfectly good stage run for you.

Once that happens you probably won't care much about voices anymore ;) :P

Sun Ce's voice is infinitely better. The two Qiaos' voices, however, are worse.

Sun Ce's voice is the same actor from DW5..

Unless you meant better than DW4?

I personally think they are good overall. Gan Ning, Xiahou Dun and Yuan, Mitsunari, Cao Pi, Keiji, Masumune, Nene, Xu Huang, Zhange Liao, Zhange He all sound good. Sun Ce, Orochi, Meng Hou, and Da Ji do too. There are more that sound good but theres a lot to name.

Ones that I agree are bad are of course Hideyoshi, Nobunaga (too low), Hanzo (same as Nobunaga), Sun Jian, Cao Cao (disappointed its not the same as 4), Guan Yu could be better too.

Xu Zhu should sound like an idiot because he looks like one.

Kotaro not talking about chaos every waking minute = awesome.


I love Tokugawa and Cao Ren's voices in any games they appear, they have an awesome sage voice. And I suppose I'm the onloy one who loves to play Wei Yan and hear him growling and screaming while he fights?

I'm glad alot of them stayed the same.

BAD
Sun Jian, Guan Yu, Ranmaru, Kenshin (how could they), Keiji (prefer SW2), & Hideyoshi (funny, but god awful)

GOOD
Nobunaga, Mitsunari, Pang De, & Xing Cai (much better!), & Yoshihiro (prefer his SW2 voice but this one is not bad)

GREAT
Orochi, I got chills when I heard his voice!

I was overall distraught with the complete crap that many voices had become. Hideyoshi or course, Yoshihiro, Wei Yan, Sun Jian's 16 year old voice, and Keiji.

I am actually taking a liking to Jiang Wei's new voices even though I miss his DW5 voice. I miss Guan Yu's Crispin Freeman voice. Poor Wei Yan, he almost sounds like Ned from South Park (the guy with microphone to his throat). :S Keiji's sounds almost the same like Gan Ning's voice. Am I right? Other than that, I am actually getting use to most of the voices in this game.

Lol I heard Kenshin's yesterday for the first time, yuck. Also Shingen's is poor as well.

Kenshin's and Shingen's were much better in SW1.

Pang De's, good? Yuck, yuck, yuck! It's seriously so much worse than his in DW5 voice.

Guan Yu's isn't bad, but it's not that good either. However, it is better than his Empires voice, but worse than his DW5 voice IMO.

Xing Cai's is better, I agree. She is a much better character overall.

Yoshihirio's isn't superb, as his SW2 voice is better by a fair margin.

Keiji's is better.

Haven't heard Sun Jian's yet, but I heard it's his same voice as his Empires voice. Nor have I seen or heard Ranmaru yet.

I would agree with Nobunaga's. I believe it's better than his SW2 voice. Mitsunari's not so, but it's still good.

On another note Sakon Shima's "Keep setting them up...I'll keep knocking them down." sounds a lot different than SW 2. In SW is has an awesome rhythm to it. In WO it sounds forced.

Keiji's voice is a big improvement over his sw2 one.
