    Last Story: Japanese voices selectable?

    Will this game have an option to have the Japanese voices? Please? Pretty please? I hate playing games with the voices turned off completely but if there's no Japanese voice option I'll have to play this that way...

    I'm not sure if Xseed can answer that today since they just announced it but knowing them I'm pretty sure they will have an option for Japanese voices with English subtitles. I wanna see who they choose for their voice actors.

    Well, let's wait until the European version is released. If it has Japanese voices there, it's possible we'll have Japanese voices over here, too.

    For the record, the European version does not have the Japanese voice track.

    It's not inconceivable that XSEED could add in the voice track for the US release, but I wouldn't plan on it, since it'd require extra programming effort and licensing fees, assuming it'd even fit on the disc; apparently even withough the Japanese voices, it still takes a dual-layer disc to hold it all.

    It's not too likely for those reasons. Although of course I'm all over the game and would prefer the Japanese track because that's how I roll, on the other hand those licensing fees (and they're prohibitive with most casts) for a niche game are pretty significant.

    It'd be nice to have the Japanese voices as an option, but reports are the European dub is pretty good. I'm not concerned about the "intregrity of the original work" in this case since Mistwalker & Sakaguchi seem to have been heavily involved with the EU localization.

    Nice, but impossible due to the fees, like Minneyar said.

    Be glad it even comes here, and uber glad that XSEED takes care of everything ^_^

    It's something to look into, definitely, but as Raguna suspected... it's not something we can comment on right now. Sorry!

    I thought since Rune Factory Frontier they were the best. I like those types of games and it seems Hiro Shimono a.k.a. Satoshi Mochida is part of the Last Story cast. This is interesting Hiro Shimono character Yurick is afraid of ghosts. I wonder where that came from. Yurick... now I remember Aitlins signature
