I only riot for things that matter. Like getting DeathSmiles 2 as a downloadable, like the Americans did!

Unfortunately for you, that dub is so good that I don't think you'd understand just how good you'd have it if we got Catherine-tier dubs of CAVE games (or just any game ever, really).

You'd have better luck picking on the gameplay changes.
he's bitching about a dub for a game where all the characters have American names like Vincent :roll:

RF for USA consoles :)
Really? I hope this is true and not just a communication mistake by one of their PR guys. If so this is a great move.

By the way, I don't think it's necessarily rioting to want a game in the US :P Just saying. You can't be heard if you don't speak up, now.

They must have done this because Cave aren't planning on releasing the game in USA anyway.

This probably means they still consider releasing Akai Katana in the west, and the DS2 in Europe should be a possibility, too.

Well, I can only hope this is true and not just a PR mistake. If it's compatible with both, does that mean America will get the DLC too?

You will be able to play the game on American consoles but America will not get the DLC.

Is there any obstacle to buying the DLC on the European marketplace like we usually do for Japan-only releases? Or a better way to phrase it, the DLC itself will not be region-locked either, right? Thanks :)

The DLC will work on an European copy if the DLC is bought from the European store, or if the DLC is made available to all marketplaces. The region of the XBL account using the DLC won't matter.

You don't understand that I have a preference for the original voice cast and that I've also heard both versions of the game already - and I intensely dislike the English dub 8) I wouldn't buy anything from atlus at this point.

You don't understand that I own both versions of the game and know the English dub is perfectly fine. God forbid they localise material for a western audience. Stop being dumb.

If you feel bad about me having my own preferences, then you need to get out from your parents' basement a little more.

I don't care what you own or like. Again, I've already responded about that. Stop being stubbornly stupid.

I can appreciate someone sticking to their guns on an issue they feel strongly about. For the record, I love original language options in my story driven games, no matter the country of origin.

But how does this apply to a game like DFK? I have to be honest, I skip text/cutscenes in shmups regardless of what language they are in. (well, maybe not Steam Hearts :oops:)

It has nothing to do with shmups, just ignore it. Atlus uSA haven't had relations to the genre as far back as I can remember. Aksys is.. well, like I said, Cave seem to be taking the digital route. Even if the European version is region-free, that doesn't mean it won't be released in the US digitally.

Thread successful! Now back to the main DFK thread, and leave the stuff about Atlus/Catherine/dubbed voices here to be buried thanks.
