Nov 21st 2010 12:09AM (Joystiq)I just want to commend you on your great post that sums up pretty much all my feelings towards Vic. I remember how he used to blast Sega on the Sega forums waaaaay back in the day.
WD deserved to go out of business with the way they ran things. Two Final Fantasy games were produced and localized (flat out MADE) in the time it took Vic to localize Lunar 2.
The "excellent" voice acting was also exposed once more JRPGs started to make their way to our shores with cut scenes. All of a sudden, the janitor's mike skills weren't so impressive anymore.
We really have Atlus to thank for liberating games from WD's grasp. When WD got a game license, it was essentially oh crap, we're not going to see that game for 5 years. Atlus showed that high quality localizations could be done in a year.
In summary, excellent post, WD got everything that was coming to it although I will always appreciate their early Sega CD contributions, and good luck to Vic in his future endeavors as long as he doesn't hold quality game licenses for hostage for years at a time. Whatever happened to Samurai Showdown RPG anyways.
