It sounds like a new set of voice actors.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I had a feeling Koei might hire on a new team. Hopefully these voices will grow on me; coming off of SW1XL, it took a while for me to get used to the SW2 VAs, although I was happy with most of them (although to this day I still don't like listening to surfer-cowboy Keiji). But, with the inclusion of the Japanese voices, I have options if I don't care for them, so I suppose it's a win-win situation.
By any chance does Steven Blum (probably the best voice actor of all time..) or Richard Ian Cox (InuYasha and Ranma 1/2 and many others) voice any of the characters? I remember Steven Blum playing Koei characters in the past and I swear I hear a little of InuYasha's voice in one of the characters (can't remember which one.) How about Wendee Lee (she plays Zhen Ji) is she there? She'd make a good VA for Nouhime I think.

What?! Hanbei's voice sucks? Man, i had such high hopes considering how awesome his jp voice is...

Now that we are mentioning voices, what about english Ina and Kanetsugu, do they sound good? :unsure:

Hmm... From watching the video I think I hear Johnny Yong Bosch and Skip Stellrecht as VAs for Yukimura and Keiji. And I sensing some familiarity with Kanetsugu and Magoichi's VAs from WO. I'll have to listen carefully a few times to be sure.

Cool, can't wait to see it.

EDIT: Wow that's quite a gathering of warriors there, what battle is this? I never thought I'd see all those people in one battle, let me tell ya haha. Is it a fictional battle? Pretty much most of the daiymo or there so that's why I am kind of surprised.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with the quality. I have no trouble hearing the characters speak, and the visuals are good. Thanks very much for doing this. :)

To me, it sounds like the generics (at least one type) are voiced by Dan Woren; at least, it sounded like him on my first listen. The PC voices all sound familiar too, though in the cases of Magoichi and Kanetsugu, it sounds like their WO/2 VAs are putting more (in Magoichi's case) and less (in Kanetsugu's case) power behind the delivery then they previously did, in my opinion.

Oh my. What happened to their voices? xD I wish they would keep the voices consistent in every game, but I guess that's not possible is it? They have Japanese VA in the English release, right? I was disappointed when I heard Kanetsugu's voice... I'm scared to hear Shingen's English voice.

Anyway, congrats to those who got the game! Hope you enjoy it! :)

Thanks a million for the video, Joetri10; I'd rather have a video with slightly off quality than to have no video at all. ^_^ The important part, the audio, is intact, so kudos!

Now, as for the voices... *rubs hands together*

Sounds very WO-ish, which isn't bad. (Someone already confirmed that WO Hideyoshi isn't returning, and really he's the only one I had a beef with). Now, what gets me is the dialogue and how its written out. Keiji sounds entirely too formal for Keiji... Yukimura, Kanetsugu's dialogue seems to fit, but Keiji, even under stressful circumstances, doesn't seem to be the type to be so formal. I guess I'd imagine him taking the whole ordeal a little less seriously, but maybe I'm typecasting the poor fellow.

As for Masamune's voice... eh, might just be the cut scene itself, but he seems very mellow, even when he is insulted towards the end (bugger off Kanetsugu... you're noble and brave for challenging Ieyasu but when Masamune challenges Ieyasu he's a fool? DAMN, only seen him again for a minute and I already want to shove that silly hat down his hypocritical throat).

Also... "Incognito" ... what the hell? XD

Edit: ... Hideyoshi... what... the... it sounds like the WO, but without the Bugs Bunny accent... oh god...

Okay, now that I'm over that.

Toshiie: Same as WO me thinks. Kinda fitting, especially that whining bit. Seriously, I can't take a guy seriously who wields two spears and a kickass sword but seems to WHINE a lot.
Katsuie: Meh, it's Katsuie-ish.
Hideyoshi: :facepalm:
Ieyasu: As expected. I grew to like his WO voice anyway.
Tadakatsu: See Ieyasu.
Nene: :/ I'll pass judgment later when I hear more of her dialogue.
Hanzo: So dull... fitting for Hanzo, I guess.
Ginchiyo: I approve.
Yoshihiro: Approved.
Muneshige: Tony Oliver. I automatically despise him.
Kunoichi: Goody, she kept her WO voice. Meaning she'll be tolerable again. How is it that I like this VA as Kunoichi but despise her as SSX?
Aya: OOOOOOOH, ME LIKE A WOMAN WITH A DEEP VOICE.
Kenshin: Meh. Greatly improved but still not Jet. God I loved that SW1 voice so much more.
Ujiyasu: Aw, I was hoping they'd get David Hayter, or someone similar. XD Nah, he's okay. Japanese voice is still better, naturally.
Sakon: WO's... aka I adore him.
Shingen: Kirk Thorton. I can finally point out the Meng Huo in his voice when he says "willingly laying down their lives for their lord" bit. Not Richard Epcar, though... oh, that's depressing.
Ina: Meh, she's okay.
Nobunaga: WO, of course. I've just grown too attached to his Japanese va to really give any English va a chance.
Oichi: I think that is Tara Platt. Nothing against her.
Kiyomasa: ... *shrugs* I have nothing to say, I'll wait to see his cut scenes to pass judgment.
Kaihime: Typical sounding woman, in my ears. I mean, she sounds a lot like Ina.
Hanbei: Oh. God.

Very cool.

Hanzo's new voice is just plain awesome. He sounds like the Grim Reaper, and it's more intimidating than Tadakatsu.

Kenshin's new voice is also cool. It's pretty rumbling, but I think it fits him much better than his WO voice. He sounds like the avatar of Bishamonten, not someone whose throat is badly parched.

The new characters sound pretty good. Kiyomasa is a tad on the youngish side, but it works fine. Muneshige sounds young, too, but I think it fits him. Kai and Ujiyasu both have great voices, but I'd say Aya's is the best of them all.

Nene and Kunoichi are both... alright. I'll need to listen to more of their lines before I decide whether I honestly like them.

Hideyoshi, though, still seems too high-pitched for my liking, and Ginchiyo's voice seems a tad... shrill, to my ears, though maybe it was just that particular delivery. Ina's isn't too great, either.

Also... is that Yuri Lowenthal doing Hanbei? :blink:

Thanks for the video, Joetri10!

Ooh, I like Hideyoshi's voice! I'm so glad it's not his WO voice!

Hanzo's voice... wow! Big change from SW2, but... I kind of like it. :) It sounds really creepy, but that's just the way it should be.

Kenshin's changed a lot! But again, I kind of like it.

YAY! Shingen's voice is awesome! =D

I'm excited now. XD I want this game!

EDIT: Just skipped to Hanbei's voice. He sounds much older than he should be, I think. :( I'm kind of disappointed... he was supposed to sound... I don't know, young but smart? I might stick with the Japanese voices, but most of the English ones aren't that bad, and I really like quite a few of them.

Thanks for posting again joetri. The voices aren't epic fail but they could be better. I like some and absolutely hate some but that comes with every game. They're definitely tolerable, I guess it will just take some getting used to. Hanzo's new VA is total badass, Tadakatsu's voice really doesn't fit him at all, he sounds like an absolute nerd/tool now lol. Hideyoshi is one of the worst ones to be honest, seriously whose voice sounds like that in real life? I mean come on...<_>

EDIT: Could you show Nohime's voice in the next video you make?

Oh god, Hideyoshi and Hanbei...

Hanbei's VA is the same as Masamune's... oh... thank god for the Japanese track.

Edit: Again, thanks for the videos. Now I know to be prepared for at least two bad voice jobs. I may not like Tony Oliver but at least he can do some decent voice work (I'm certain he's Muneshige, as he sounds like what Lu Meng and Xiahou Yuan would sound like if they didn't have throat cancer). Hideyoshi and Hanbei are on notice for me.

Some impressions of voice acting

Keiji: Better than SW2
Hideyoshi: WTF?! :crazy:
Hanbei: NOOO! :crazy:
Kenshin: Pretty good actually
Hanzo: I just don't like it at all
Yoshimoto: Argh... sounds too retarded
Toshiie: :facepalm:
Katsuie: Well it's okay
Yoshihiro: This one's good!
Muneshige: Didn't expect something like that...
Magoichi: I guess it's okay
Shingen: Okay

But Hideyoshi :facepalm: , just why... ruining one of my favorite characters... :OMG:

oh yea i just saw your second vid, oichi sounds like her WO VA awsome! i like they say ina sounds too....kai was different...idk why but i guess i expected her to have a higher pitched voice lol aya sounds cool and kunoichi...its sounds like a mix of WO and SW1 to me if that makes sense....the rest is neither here nor there with me i don't really care....except hideyoshi still sounds annoying as hell XD also i agree with wildcard about hanbei maybe this was because i heard his japanese voice first also but his english VA dosen't fit him...to me he looks to boyish to have THAT deep of a voice...a little higher would have been better -_-

oh! and THANK YOU Joetri!

One question:
Has Noh got her pathetic sounding voice from SW2 or her AMAZING voice from WO?

I might buy it eventually...
I haven't got too much money atm so I'll probably wait until the price is lowered (likely to be soon considering how unpopular warriors games usually are in UK...)
