We've all come across bad game voice-acting before. Resident Evil and Fatal Frame are two that spring to my mind. Well, that's nothing compared to Chaos Wars. The voice-acting is so bad - the actors show no emotion, have awful dialogue and even struggle pronouncing simple words like "summon"!



There's a Youtube video of Chaos Wars' English dub up, and you can see the time tested formula of amateur writer + "voice actors" from the office = hoooooorifying.
You can play the game with Japanese dub and English subs as well, so it's not damning - but still an amazing effort.
It gets good around the 5:10 mark, if you're impatient. Wait a little while longer, and you'll hear a guy who doesn't know how to pronounce 'summon'! Though the Salmon Gate sounds pretty interesting too.

    Might be better if there was music or something playing in the background...

    This just sounds like a book on tape.

    Edit: So theres music added later in the video, it's no better :\

    Haha, wow. That truly is quite horrible. Hopefully the game includes a Japanese voice track as well, eh?

    It really makes me wonder why these voice actors fail so hard. Is it the companies that employ them? Or do they really just suck this bad? Makes me wanna try my hand at voice acting.

      I just picked it up, and yes it does, you can switch to the japanese voice actors, which I did since the english voice actors are too much to bear.
