There was something about it that sounded so fake, it was bad voice acting.
Watch from 1:05, his talking with Sephiroth, it sounds so unnatural.
YouTube video

Videos don't work on my computer, but I have the entire fight om my cell. I have no problem with it. IMO, Cloud's english was better than the japaneese.

That's a laugh.

What's a laugh? I don't have video's on my computer, and can't watch any, or that I thought Clouds voice was good?

That you think Clouds dub-over is good

It is. You have a problem if you don't think that.

No, it really is bad, i've watched many dub-overs over the years. I can tell the difference between good voice acting and bad voice acting, i've seen good ones, Cloud's voice-over definately isn't one of the good ones.

I don't care if you have seen many dub-overs, and know good and bad voice acting, because your expectations for good and bad voice acting is flawed.

Flawed how?

Your expectations for good voice overs. Cloud's voice over sounds like how I imagined him. Let me ask you then, what do you think of Gaara's, and Itachi's?

Gaara's voiceover is the perfect example of a bad voice-over because he tries too hard to imitate the original which makes his voice sound unnatural and forced. Itachi's is not bad, but honestly, nothing beats the characters real voice.

Just because someones opinion is different than your opinion doesnt mean that there opinion is flawed. Remember, different people can like and judge different things in different ways.

Yep, your expectations are flawed.

Look what she said about Itachi's and Gaara's voice over. It's flawed.

Lol its as if anything i say goes straight over your head. Just because its a different opinion than yours, doesnt mean its flawed. If anythings flawed here, its the fact that your the only person i know that can contradict there own self in the matter of 2 pages of posts.

I was saying that earlier, so obviously everything is going right over her head as well then.

Again, ill ask you, flawed in what way? What i said about Gaara's dub voice-over is true. It sounds completely unnatural and forced, anyone who is familiar with Gaara's real voice and has a good ear can tell the person is just trying very hard to imitate it.

Just because someone is trying hard to make a voice doesn't mean it is bad. I can try hard to do Gaara's voice, but if it sounds good, that is all that matters.

It's good if the person can do it and sound completely natural at the same time, for example Naruto's real voice is not the womens natural voice but it sounds completely like a natural voice. When i listen to Gaara's dub voice-over i can completely tell it's a fake forced voice, and that to me, is bad voice acting.

Whatever. Still think your opinions are messed up.

I have to agree with this.

Most voice actors do not use their normal voice, however there's a big difference between "sounding different yet sounding natural" and "trying hard to sound different and being able to tell it's forced".

And considering I've been watching anime probably as long as most of you have been alive...๐Ÿ˜›
