Why are their English scripts and voice acting so good?
Why can they get it right when other Japanese developers can't? Even Sekiro had a good dub.

Their style of storytelling and the company they work with for it just work well together. I imagine it helps that English is the default, even in Japan.
Wyatt Harris
I've heard they hire theater actors rather than normal VAs.
Grayson Perry
Really? That explains a lot actually
Jacob King
Do people get any immersion at all when playing Sekiro with english dub?
Carter Hughes
which anime have the best dubs?
also post u're are favorite game
Kevin Gomez
I guess they must hire good english writers/translators, and they get good VAs from theatre cos for the job.
Elijah Hernandez
Their scripts are like what, 4 pages long?
Charles Hall
Black lagoon
Jack Hughes
They hire actual actors instead of dogshit dub VAs
Ayden Barnes
Black lagoon, GitS:SAC, samurai Champloo and Medabots
Ryan Miller
They make weird translation errors or flourishes that spawned all the lorefags. Otherwise yeah, it's good.
>Even Sekiro had a good dub.
Good joke. It wasn't even done by the same team, frognation, which why it was so shit.

Pretty sure Miyazaki said he spent a few years living in Canada during childhood and he grew up reading some english books he barely understood.
His grasp on the english language is good enough that he can avoid typical japanese pitfalls. If you go and listen to some of the cut dialogue in Souls games a lot of it is often stuff that sounds kind of typically japanese.

Sekiro's dub is not to the same quality as Souls. It's campy just like anime.
But you're right. Fromsoft are uniquely non-cringe given that they are Jap devs. People say it's theater actors but they are non cringe down to their writing.
They take themselves seriously but not so seriously that it comes off as edgy. There is levity but the humor isn't juvenile like in most Jap game, it's consistent with the overall. They are also subtle and have very little exposition. Very unlike Japanese anything.

The slow laugh, every single time. Even characters that aren't supposed to be sinister.

Yeah, Demon's Souls, Dark Souls games, and Bloodborne have some pretty stellar voice acting.
Sekiro's dub is kinda iffy compared to the rest, but that was because it was outsourced to a different company than usual to do the voicework. It was still alright tho.
Gonna list some of the best performances from these games.
