With a very sweary trailer
A mod for the originalFinal Fantasy 7that adds full voice acting to the game is set to release today after seven years of work. Tsunamods’ Echo-S 7 mod has actors from around the world voicing every character in Final Fantasy 7, including the battle barks. You can see a trailer of the mod in action below, but if you’re watching in the office on your lunch break then be aware that there’s a fair few cuss words in it.
Your mileage may vary, but I’ve got to admit that this is entirely the kind of voice-over that I imagine would have worked for the original version of Final Fantasy 7 from 26 years ago. Remember, that’s just a year afterResident Evilwas released, with its magnificently B-movie voice acting. We live in the third decade of the 21st century, when FF7 is being remade in three parts like it’s The Lord Of The Rings. Yes, the original was a good game, but this mod strikes just the right balance of Nineties nostalgia that I’m kind of digging it.
If you’re interested in giving the mod a go then you can find it over at the Tsunamods sitehere. What do you think of a fully voiced Final Fantasy 7?
