Imagine the immense effort those ladies and gentlemen put into this project, yet journalists are still claiming there's no diversity💢

[@henrichandrew]

Those are western journalists propaganda, don't know what diversity they were talking about. For them, every movies, games always have to put white or black characters or faces in it. And Hello.... Wu Kong is a mythology from China and Asia, certainly are characters are Chinese and Asian... Why those "God of War" series, they (westerners) never bother and called it no diversity? because all characters are Caucasian. What an absurd statement and comment from them..

[@WisdomRose]

I think both the Chinese and English versions sound really good for this game. Props to all the voice actors in both languages for their performances. As someone who finds it hard to focus playing video games while reading subtitles at the same time, I'll likely play it in English first if I ever get the game, and then play again in Chinese after completing it.

[@webherring]

As a Chinese, I preferred the Chinese version. It seems more dramatic and appropriate. As I tried to understand why, I think it comes down to the phrasing. The English isn't as good to me because it doesn't have the same way of phrasing. It lacks the Chinese feeling. I think the Chinese phrasing follows the Chinese opera tradition. Then I wondered, what if the English used the Chinese way of phrasing. (Like how the British voice actors followed the Japanese phrasing in the 1978 show Monkey.) Best I can think of is it would sound like William Shatner 😅😅 Which isn't necessarily bad, BTW. If you re-watch this video with William Shatner in mind, you'll see what I mean !! 😅😅

english wukong sounds evil at first, but in retrospect it wasnt bad at all, and the most refined for the role to me... the monsters in the english version draw from western high fantasy sounds, which is understandable but also less refined for the game. practically the difference to me is just that the english wukong was less jester like, less monkey like, but it sounds like it tried to be faithful to the chinese wukong.
