Podtoid 113: Make my monsters grow photo

Aaron Linde couldn't make it this week, so we replaced him with Chad Concelmo. Hope you don't terribly mind.

Then again, of course you won't. It's Chad Concelmo, and he throws out his trademark phrase within literally minutes of being on the podcast. Then he starts being mean to Samit.

You can listen to the thing here, as usual, or you can subscribe to us on iTunes.

This week's best question came from Sentry, who should email podtoid@destructoid.com with his mailing address because that's how we send things out to you through the postal service.

Anthony Burch, I'm all for Samit bashing but don't mess with Chad Concelmo.
The fact that Chad is so amazing grants him diplomatic immunity.

This Podtoid is hilarious.

Is this what I've been missing out on?

In regards to voice acting, I don't think that we can place all of the blame on actors. Sometimes the line is acted poorly. Sometimes, the ADR writer has written it poorly. Sometimes, it's directed poorly. Sometimes, we really just don't want to hear that line in English, because, well, it's corny and hearing it instead of reading it only makes it worse. Sometimes, I think that the insular way that the video game industry does ADR could contribute, too. In short, the whole thing is a lack of synergy, if you ask me.

For the record, the QTE sex scene in Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy was with the ex-girlfriend and not Carla (since it never happened in that scene). That's the one that was cut in the US.

Not that...I...er...noticed much. Ahem.

Great episode!

On the voice acting thing, I have problems with japanese voice actors too, its that so many of the guys sound like they are doing a Kenshiro(Fist of the North Star) impression or all the girls that sound like they are getting boned.

Would you kindly just give the episode a cursary glance before you put it out. People talking over ads is no fun.

How could the QTE in Indigo Prophecy where the ENTIRE apartment was flung at you work? Or the QTE when you fight the cops and run through the streets and jump on the chopper - how could you enjoy it while trying to keep up with the simon game. Also, Shenmue where the QTEs come out of nowhere. I agree that God of War works with QTEs as does PoP: Two Thrones where the dagger glows to perform quick kills, but on majority they are busted mechanics.

Voice acting in Japan is a specialized job that has higher standards than the types used in US anime/games.

Another great example of innovation, I am glad to find it. There are so many developers working on this segment but this is one of the best innovative idea ever. Thanks for sharing it here.

Still there is room for greater development and I would recommend more emphasis on research and of course it will bring a better situation. Thanks for sharing a nice read. Cheers
