Was DW3 Meant To Be Funny?; cutscenes & voice acting are hilarious...

Seriously I've been watching all the cutscenes for this game for the past half hour and I have been dying from laughter. It's like the funniest thing ever. Did KOEI purposely pay people to make the english script this funny? I sort of feel bad for the Voice actors for this game.


This clip reminded me of South Park for some reason

Seriously this is just ridiculous!

Zhange He is just :lol:

Xiahou Yuan is just the worst actor ever

Cao Cao is a creeper or something

Zhang Jiao is one scary SOB

*sorry if there is already a topic like this. I just thought people should remember how funny and great this game truly is*

~Thanks TC for uploading the videos~

I think you maybe right Jsun. There are so many that can be seen as comical when compared to the games that came afterwards. So perhaps Koei just felt to do it for the lolz? Or didn't expect such a positive response from DW3.

There is this heartless one of Xiahou Yuan. And check for his Mt. Ding Jun death as well:

It is so great to reflect back on this! I think they are fine, some are really funny, but enjoyable nontheless.

Back then, I really didn't pay much attention... but now they do seem quite funny! I doubt Koei made DW3 to be pure laughs though... one of my favorite DW games to date.

Yeah, they are very funny. And it was great that you could switch the characters in the cutscenes also because they were interactable.

Xiahou Yuan just has bad voice acting. Its like he sips a cup of tea between each word in DW3 because the gap is so big. Though the huge thud on the ground was impressive:

man all these scenes are hilarious, and the voice acting......well now we know why they gave DW3 the option to have JP audio :P

haha DW3 was indeed one of the best, best soundtrack, good humour :lol:



and on a side note, xiahou yuan mightve been bad, but anyone remember Lu bu's DW4 voice acting?

Yeah, its a shame, would've liked that VA to stay (seriously.) I preferred the opening to the stage with him throwing his food at him though.

Decent... but the DW5/DW6/WO voice actor for Lu Bu is starting to get old...

I really with they would bring back DW2/DW3 voice actors.

Yeah, it's old now, I agree. His DW4 one wasn't that amazing, but I suppose people like his 5 VA because its deeper for such a terrifying man.

I would personally like DW3's Sun Quan and Cao Cao to return. Though they wouldn't have to do those characters again since both current ones are great.

OH MY! those are all classic, Mei Ling, thanks. *starts hunting for DW3 and XL in the drawer*. Zhu Rong's VA got much better with time, but i love how Zhen Ji sounds sort of like an angry school teacher, her enunciation is so proper.

also her death quote was so kind: "...I wish you good fortune...my dear..."

My favorite was the same as yours. Those voice actors were not so bad on Mei Ling's favorite. "Great king! Flee!!!!! AUUUUHGHGHGHGHHHHH" lol :lol: .

All of these are pure gold. I used to have the "flaming idiots" and the "Zhang He" videos on my myspace page, I love them. :lol:

In response to the question... No, I don't think DW3 was honestly meant to be funny. I just think the standards for voice acting where a lot lower at the dawn of the PS2.

But I like the cheesy voice acting... it's like a poorly dubbed Kung-fu movie.

EDIT:
Just for fun! ^_^
