Yoshida noted that over 8 years of work on Final fantasy xiv I have never participated in the process of recording voices.
“I have my own policy on this matter. If I go, since I also write some dialogue, I would like to step in and give my opinion, so the whole session would look like there are two sound engineers. I think the actors may have a hard time if the producer or development manager comes along and starts contradicting the words of the sound engineer. So I don’t go to the voice recording sessions. ”- Naoki Yoshida
Yoshida does not attend voice recording sessions for Final Fantasy XVI either. The producer said that he is not involved in the plot, but during the meetings he can express his opinion about certain phrases.
“This time, the recording is in English first. And we focused on British English. We also need to record the movements of the faces. We cannot manually animate every piece of the scene. So this time we do a full face capture and then add voices to that. This is one of the reasons the English version is ahead of others. We’ll be working on the Japanese version soon. ”- Naoki Yoshida
The release date of the game is not yet known. Among the officially announced platforms – only PlayStation 5.
