What language did you play The Lost Odyssey in?

By Andrew Cretella · June 2, 2011

So I picked up the Lost Odyssey based on a few words that Suskie said about it here. Unfortunately the English voice acting is pretty bad, so I checked the options to see if there was a Japanese voice option. To my surprise, you can select from not two, but five, different languages. I have since switched to Japanese and it is a bit better, though still not great. Did anyone else try out the other languages?

Klingon. Also played a bit of it in Al-Bhed.

I played it in English. And I had no issue with the voice acting.

LO lets you change the language each time you load the game in, so you can easilly check both out and see what you prefer.

I didn't know that was a possibility. All credit to the developer for bothing to record the entire dialogue content in that many languages.

Incidentally, the English acting didn't bother me. It wasn't great, but it was no worse than most games, I thought. And I quite liked Jansen.

I was pretty amazing myself. A lot of developers include the option to choose between English and Japanese, since they know that there is a significant population of players who would like to have the Japanese option. German, French and Italian though? Not too many games with those.
