Yoshi-P Says Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail's Wuk Lamat Abuse "Broke His Heart"
I really don't get why so many websites are insistent on pretending it had anything to do with "The character taking a back seat". I get Yoshi-P trying to make excuses for the actor, it could easily be a language barrier issue or just protecting his staff. The actual player feedback everywhere though is simply about it being some of the worst voice acting to have made either into a major video game, which is very unsettling in a game that has done such amazing things with sound direction. I don't know if it's the actors fault or if for some reason they were told to make it sound as bad as forced and awkward as possible, but it comes off as an early attempt at a digital voice or a deaf person trying their best even though they don't really know what talking sounds like when heard from fully functioning ears. This need to try and redirect the blame entirely away from the actor without ever saying who made those horrid decisions if not then just leaves fans with a bad taste as they know one way or another꧃ they're being lied to. The character Wuk Lamat is decent, but having to mute regularly to stop hearing that awful sound really detracts. If there was even just an option to silence that character so we could read the subtitles and not miss out on everything else would be a huge fix although not as ideal as replacing it with better audio obviously.
