Got a Wal-Mart gift card from work, used that and some money and picked this up with the reduced price

Would people recommend starting with the Japanese voice over?

First time?? You’re in for a treat.

If you got the directors cut japanese is good, the original doesn’t have accurate lip synch for the japanese audio. I honestly played both ways but i enjoy the english voice acting since thats how it was originally recorded and motion capped.

Also for an action game where theres a lot going on in-game I’d rather just not have to read subtitles

You'll get conflicting opinions but for me, I can only play this in Japanese. It's so much more immersive and as a swift reader, it's never an issue for me to follow what's going on. The English dub just doesn't resonate with me and imo, Jin's Japanese VA is significantly more emotional & layered than the English VA.

The only problem with Japanese is that not everything gets translated. There's no subtitles for random NPC banter and I feel like that matters in terms of world building. NPCs will gossip about rumors of your actions during the game, but none of it is subbed which sucks because that's how you get an idea of how people feel about The Ghost.

Fair point. It never bothered me or detracted from the experience as those random, side conversations are a fraction of the dialouge and repeat after a handful of lines, but it's possible some would care. I still strongly prefer and recommend the Japanese dub off the basis of immersion and that I find the Japanese dub to be superior in quality than the English dub in almost every conceivable way. NPC chatter being a factor in one's decision is fair, though.

 

[Grand Conde]

Japanese, definitely.

The Sarugami armor is unreal. I feel like a Samauri God with that piece maxed out in the game

 

[BaggerofTea]

Japanese, definitely.

I only have it on Japanese, it sounds weird as fukk to have it on english

 

[Grand Conde]

Yeah, I did the Japanese voices even before they added the lip synching. Only way to play in my opinion.
