Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Disaster: DoC was once set to release in NA, voice actor confirms it.

Check out this portion of a blog post from Reuben Langdon, the man behind the motion capture/voice of in-game character, Evans…

Still not sure if we will ever see this game States side. I heard that one of the major reasons for the delays was that in the original game design Monolith (game production company) was just going to use the standard controller and in the middle of production they decided to change the controls so the player would use the Wii remote. Also after we finished the mo-cap and voice over stuff, much later in the production, Nintendo bought out Monolith and Nintendo of America decided that the dialogue as is wouldn’t fly with America audiences. Bah! So almost a year later the original cast was brought in to re-record a lot of their lines. Probably the most noticeable change was changing STORM to SURGE. A lot of the other changes were pretty minor just changing sentence structure and other stupid stuff. Not quite sure why they did it, the original sounded fine to me. Monolith wasn’t happy with the rewrites either and last i heard there were actually gonna be 2 versions of the game. I think the Japanese release stuck with the original version the one we (just Cause) created together with Monolith. Not sure about the European version, whether they went with the original or the Nintendo of America rewrite version.

Well, isn’t that a juicy bit of information. As we can see from what Mr. Langdon said, Nintendo of America was involved in a rewrite that was aimed at American audiences. I wonder what happened there… Thanks to Master for the heads up!

I hate NoA more than before... That's unbearable and totally lame, as well as being really sad.

Poor guys at Monolith.
