When games as big-scaled asWuthering Wavesget launched, their competitors surely feel the ground shake in preparation. This was the exact case for Kuro Games’ newest addition to the lot and it certainly had some of the biggest streamers and gamers turning their heads. From Travelers to Trailblazers and now Rovers, gamers have always found a way to experience some of the best open-world RPG games through different mediums.
The game has only just launched and there are opinions flying about left and right. While it is only fair for fans to wait a couple of patches for the story to progress and further create a foundation. At the same time, the game is also being praised for its world-building and gameplay mechanics. However, one topic of concern was the voice acting.
Wuthering Wavesand Underwhelming Voice Acting
Wuthering Waveshas been exceptional in many ways. So much so that the game managed to reach the number 1 spot across many platforms for downloads in over 100 countries (via Wuthering_Waves onX). Success is meeting the game in many ways but one. The English voice actors have constantly been criticized, with players choosing to switch to other languages instead.
The voice acting, especially that of the Rover, seems too off-putting. In some places, it lacks emotions while in others the synchronization is practically negligible. This got many fans concerned because the range of voice actors wasn’t one that lacked talent. So understanding what went wrong also became a topic of concern.
Is the Similarity Between the Sea Otters in Genshin Impact and the Iudex of Fontaine Just a Coincidence?
The lack of emotions matching otherwise strong scenes wasn’t something gamers found good and to no one’s surprise, started comparing it toGenshin Impactagain. Ironically enough, Alejandro Saab, the voice actor ofHell’s Paradise’sGabimaru andGenshin Impact’sCyno, had the perfect explanation.
When Two Worlds Come Together
Alejandro Saab has worked on not only many renowned animes but also just as many games as well. FromThe Last of Us Part IItoGod of War: Ragnarök,his range is one that stretches not just for dubbing but also with that of many other games likePersona 5.
Wuthering Waves’biggest competitor as of now and in the gamers’ eyes stands as HoyoVerse games. Being a voice actor for that very company, it was wonderful to see him standing up for the voice actors with a perfect explanation for the lack of coordination.
