澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 16 producer Naoki Yoshida has🍌 revealed that the English voice recording ౠfor the game is about to go underway - before the Japanese. 

During an appearance on (as shared by ), the Sqಞuare Enix icon said that the English recording is going first this time around, surprisingly before the Japanese audio is recorded. This is slightly strange as usually, the English - as well as any other language - audio is secondary when dealing with a Japanese studio. 𒐪;

The developer’s reasoning for this is due to recording the facial movements of the actors via full facial motion ca🦩pture, which will then 🧜be combined with the English language audio recording. Yoshida also mentions that the team is "focusing on British English" for this title. However, he did also say that the Japanese audio recording will also be done soon.

Elsewhere during his appearance on the show, Yoshida - who is also the director of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 14 - gave an insight intoꦐ the process of developing games in the series noting that: "I’ve been working on Final Fantasy 14൲ for eight years now, but I’ve never been to a voice recording session."

As for why this is, Yo꧟shida says, stems from him wanting to give his input regarding the actors’ performance due to writing the dialogue, and that this may become confusing to the performers if they are given instruction from Yoshida as well as the sound director. "So I don’t go to voice 🃏recording sessions," Yoshida concludes. 

"I’m also not going to Final Fa🐭ntasy 16 recording sessions, since I’m not the one writing the story." Yoshida explains, "during story meetings, I do say my opinions [...] although the team has been doing a great job of taking my opinions into consideration." 

Final Fantasy 16 was first unveiled during Sony’s PS5 showcase last year however we haven’t seen too much else on it since then. This is probably exactly how Square Enix wants it though as 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Yoshida has revealed himself: "We don’t want to say something that’s half-baked and c꧒ause speculation oဣn the title." 

Despite us not knowing exactly how far along the team is with development, we do know that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 16 is progressing smoothly as Yoshida has also mentioned that the next time we see more on this gam﷽e, it will be shortly followe𓆉d by more tangible details about its release.
