You know how some games have a bad ending or something that amounts to "The hero will have to fight for eternity in an endless unwinnable hell war"

I realize now that is Goku's literal Heaven and his ultimate dream

Will we reach a finale where Goku looks at existence splintering apart and sees himself through every possible permutation and self, giving us a 48 minute shared monologue where Granny Goku talks to herself with Black's tone the entire time

This would own, but only if it features the clip of Goku doing the the Kamehameha with Oolong from the one live action movie.

Don't the Xenoverse voice actors have literally no context for any of their lines? Like they're just given a textdump from the Japanese developer.

Listen to Whis' voice:

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3388dc

This was the first time I heard Whis dubbed in English and man I hated it. His voice trembling as if he's scared to tell Beerus something bad. Whis has watched Beerus destroy planets for their food not being tasty enough without flinching, and didn't bat an eye when his dad said Zen-Oh would destroy all the unworthy universes. So to hear him scared is really off-putting.

Is there any other type of dubbing that just has the VA's go in blind, or is it just English anime dubbing?

This is going to sound like a smart rear end answer but it's genuine

Japanese English dubbing is the absolute worst. Even if they luck out and get some one fluent in English, which is SUPER rare, almost all of the time they are given such poo poo direction that it tanks the entire attempt. Take a look at any Japanese 90s era Godzilla film and you will find it rife with *AWFUL* English where the actor clearly had no idea how to speak the language and was just phonetically trying to piece it together. And that's assuming the actor can actually act

Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
The reason why the Resident Evil 1 dub is so infamously bad is because the voice actors did their usual takes that actually sounded like humans, but the voice editors were japanese people that didn't speak english, so they picked and cut lines based on what they sounded was right.

A lot of video game dubbing is done this way - they don't tell the actors who they're voicing because they know they'll ask for more money if they figure out it's a marquee character.

I'm looking forward to Sean dubbing Goku Black since he's mentioned at cons that doing Goku all the time can be tiring, since he's just the simple happy fight guy.

I think he'd enjoy the opportunity to chew some scenery as a baddie.

I could also see him, depending on how this arc goes, choosing to express Goku a little differently than usual after his choice and being labeled a villain.

It's not just 90s Godzilla. I watched Shin Godzilla and they had American actors playing Americans speaking grammatically correct English, but it was till really stilted because Anno doesn't know how to direct in English.

Not to mention one of the main characters was a third-generation Japanese-American who's first language was English, yet she still speaks with a very obvious accent.

Actually in the now little-remembered "Dragonball" comics he's an rear end in a top hat.

If you're not aware Dragonball Super is a post-Z/pre-GT series that (barring some shocking twist) shows a different plot than GT ended up doing. It's also much better than GT is.

If you mean explicitly post-GT, no, that's the end
