He was probably trying to make his youthful voice sound older, since the condition was that Dante has to sound over 30.

i believe the director instructed him to do that, which i think is just wrong, he's a good motion actor, but not so much in acting, again, it was maybe the director..

Yeah, it was most probably the director's instruction, Dante was supposed to be over 30, and Langdon's voice as it normally is has already been known as that of teenage Dante. Considering that by the age of 19, which is usually taken as 3!Dante's age, the voice has already developed to its adult stage, what they probably meant was that they wanted a deeper, fatherly voice to contrast that of Nero.

Each to his own, but I hated Langdon's voice in DMC3. He just sounds so nasally and obnoxious, and his ceaseless, desperate attempts to sound energetic and cool just come off as grating. I think he was at his best in MvC3; there, he managed to balance the cockiness of DMC3 Dante with the smooth, laid-back nature of DMC4 Dante.

yeah, he was nasally there, and turned breathy in 4.. i still blame the director.. wouldn't let that kind of act pass if i were the director

Vergil sounded more nasally in my honest opinion.

Yeah, but given how little he shouted, and how quiet he kept his voice composed most of the time, it never became a problem. But Dante spends 30% of the game whooping and shrieking like Chris-Chan on bath salts...so HIS voice becomes grating pretty quickly.

Without a doubt. I'm just saying, even when Vergil talks with a quiet tone of voice, his "nasalitis" still shows.
