This has been my question all along. To me, its the same as having our characters speak in Animal Crossing-ese...and I'm a huge JRPG fan too... |
I think it has something to do with your idea of quality, or what you match together with other things.
I used to always watch anime with japanese VAs, because 99% of all english dubs were shit. Of course, it was much harder to judge quality on the japanese ones, so people might imagine them being quite good, if they are in fact mediocre. If there are good english VAs in a dub, I much prefer them to the japanese dub, which is just one reason I loved Valkyria Chronicles. It had good english VAs!
People who are fans of JRPGs might also not like that the feel of a RPG is being ruined by english VAs, when they are used to getting the entire japanese package. I guess, if everything in the game 'feels' japanese, then english VAs might ruin the immersion for some. Although this last part is pure guessing
