Ocelot or Liquid? - Page 4

The thing that pissed me off more than anything was Naomi. Such a pivotal, emotional character in the original (with an awesome accent to boot) was marred with bored lines and emotionless tones and without her accent. After I first heard her voice (after waiting months in anticipation for the game), I knew that this game was not what I thought it was...5 minutes into the game!

I don't know what was up Jennifer Hale's ass during the recording sessions, but she had better give us the A+ performance she did in the original MGS or I will not be a happy fan.

Don't own the console for it, and neither did I play MGS1.

Now just to make sure I read that correctly...you have not played MGS1...?

MGS1 is a must play, just play the classic if at all possible instead of playing The Twin Snakes. Don't get me wrong, The Twin Snakes was good, just not as good as the classic game. Well not even close..

Was the accent ever really nessessary? Judging by recent trailers, she doesn't seem to have an accent at all in MGS4.

Was it necessary?! Dude, thats her *bleep*ing character! She needs that accent. Thats like Liquid without his accent (assuming we're talking about Cam Clarke here). But even if she doesn't have it in this one, I expect her acting to be above average/perfect just to accomodate the poor performance she had in TTS.

Tell me, would you like Mei Ling to still not have her accent? Hmmmm?

You don't understand. What I'm getting at here is, why did Naomi ever even have an accent? Logically, she shouldn't have one, while it makes sense that Liquid and Mei Ling do (due to their english and chinese backgrounds respectively).

Was she not raised in America by Gray Fox? That's what I mean by logically she shouldn't have that accent since she was taken when she was an infant. I just don't really see why you're complaining about the voice acting in TTS when in MGS4 Naomi clearly doesn't sound the same as MGS1 Naomi.

I really like ocelot and liquid and I hope that ocelot is fighting over his body in this one but I don't mind if liquid is in control most of the time or ocelot
