Shenmue Voice Acting of excellence 4?

[@Silver_Warden]

I love how the NPC corrects Ryo's mispronunciation of his own hometown: - I'm from a place called "Yokosooka". - Yokosuka*?

I love how they just stand there in silence for a good 6 seconds after the conversation

I mean... at the time when all you had was an N64, the fact that every NPC in this game had voice acting was insane. Shenmue is kino.

[@ωις-λ3π]

I don't think many people who say Shenmue sucks and has always sucked were there when it came out. That jump from my N64 to the Dreamcast was huge. "Woah, a game that is fully voice acted, has a quality soundtrack, AND Ryo has individual fingers!?"

@@ωις-λ3π I was there, and amazing that I could run around in a realistic environment. Never complained and the voice acting either.

[@timkasansky2528]

The issue is the english dub, it's awful. Nobody would be talking about it today had they released it in the west with the original voice acting. And Panzer Dragoon Saga had NPCs talking years before Shen Mue came out.

Missed opportunity to have him ask Ryo to get him a soda

How do you know my name? His name was something else.
