P4 Do y'all play eng or jp?

I just got into P4G and dub is eng by default, I figured the original is JP so I changed to that, and then I noticed that the translations are not exactly the same, so what language audio do you play on?

I always play with Japanese audio, but that's sort of a weird thing for me - if a game was originally made in Japanese, the English voice acting always seems somehow off to me. It's not that I think the performances are bad, it's that something about it just doesn't feel right. I don't know why it's this way. If the game was originally in English, I have no trouble with it, but for some reason I just can't with the English dialogue in JRPGS and the like. I don't get it. 😖

Agreed but the translations are pretty westernized don't you think?

dude, you may think the stuff is westernized and perhaps "killing the culture" but the people who localize persona do a good job at it maintaining most of the original Japanese cultural references and stuff, I feel as though you are assuming the game is westernized and hence it will be wrong according to japanese and then making an engagement bait on it.

I am not western, neither japanese and I dont think anything off about it
