Starting PS:P2

Sep 21, 2010 00:33

Since I decided to begin playing Phantasy Star: Portable 2, it does work and I've already created my first character for it, which is based on Icelus because that's my usual default, hahaha. I recall that in the Japanese demo of the game, there was a lot of spoken voicework for all the dialogue you see on the screen. As usual, that doesn't carry over into the U.S. version; they've removed all non-cutscene spoken dialogue. Sega isn't known for normally handling these things very well, so I can't say I'm surprised. At the least, the dubbing so far is turning into the best I've heard from the Phantasy Star games in more recent years, although it probably won't be anything ultimately awesome.

I'm still getting used to the way of things and took the opportunity to fill in all the blanks for random dialogue shots my character can make, haha. I'm already signed up to go online and hang out with anyone who'd like to, but first, I should level up and plan ahead in order to be helpful.

So far, I only sort of like Chelsea, which I didn't really expect, haha. Hopefully there will be other characters that I'll like, so we'll wait and see how it all plays out.

Regardless of my starting PS:P2, I'll return to KH:BBS later because I'm much more dedicated overall to that~!

In other news, I found this a while ago, although I'm not quite remembering from where, so I've uploaded it myself to share. If you'd like to see how Bandai Namco's N.A. branch should be handling at least the Tales games on the DS, then you can try out one fangroup's handling of Tales of Innocence, bringing it into English for the first time, since we'll never get it "officially":
ToI in English
Even if it would get released into English officially, who wants to bet they'd remove all the spoken dialogue just like how Sega tends to do? It's kind of amazing how much dialogue is spoken, for a DS game and all, in ToI, haha. I've played a little, but ran out of time before I could locate a save point, so I'll have to start all over again before I'll be able to get somewhere. I really need to get a game controller for the computer sometime.
