Underway?

Bizarre. I thought this would've been a high priority localization for Nintendo.

Monolith Software is a Nintendo subsidiary. Would be weird if they didn't fund it:p

0% chance.

It better be.

Does anyone know if they will be using english voice actors like xenoblade chronicles or american voice actors like every other jrpg (not that that is a bad thing though).

October 21st. Wanna bet?

Sure, why not... ha ha ha

While the accent is something Americans can appreciate, the talent pool in England has to be smaller than the already tiny talent pool in the US. Can't imagine there's much an ability difference.

I think Xenoblade will release for rest of the world shortly after japanese release.

They probably started localization some time ago since this time around they knew it was going to be available in all regions.

Even the expression "well under way", although english is not my native language, I believe that it means "it's going ata face pace" or "we've already done a lot of it" instead of "we are currently doing it" which is positive news imo.

*crosses fingers*

I would import it and then buy it again when it's localized. But Nintendo doesn't want my money.

I really don't think that just because it's set in Neo LA, that they need to have American accents. After all they speak Japanese so accent is hardly an issue.
