Oh, well, I guess Credo's VA could be listed on wikipedia, or something. I hope it's him because Dan is sooooo funny and cool! But, I was under the impression that it was someone else.
Anyway, you're right about the cheesy "light" line in that it did sound sincere. But, just oddly acted out. That's what I've always thought. Like, if the VA just said the line a different way, it would better. But, I guess the words strung together as they are, are just very strange, if you know what I mean. It's not normal English speech. It's sounds like it belongs in an opera, or a musical, not a video game, lol.
So, I would go for a rewrite of that line, still keeping Dante's sincere wish that he "HAD been the one to fill her dark soul with light." It is very sweet (I love his relationship with Trish-mommy), and I would want to preserve that, and have it acted out properly, so as to sound like something anyone would say...

That's something I've always wondered about. Was it written in Japanese originally? I know the 3rd and 4th game scripts were originally in English, so I wonder if, like how anime is done, the first 2 games were all acted out in Japanese, and then voiced over by American actors...

It was during an interview at some convention, don't think it was a DMC convention though. Maybe for Streetfighter? But anyway, one of the people in the crowd asked him what he thought about the infamous 'light scene' from the original DMC game, so Reuben went, oh you mean the 'I was supposed to be the one to fill your soul with liiiight'...and it was just terrible. Like, cover your ears and wish it never happened terrible. LOL

Actually this leads perfectly into something else I would like to bring up. Remember in DMC3 when Dante was like "and now my soul is saying it wants to STOP YOUUU"
I remember finding that line quite funny and being reminded of the light scene from DMC1. So ok the DMC1 voice actor may have been rubbish to some people but surely that line in DMC3 alone proves that Rueben can not do anything but "the funny guy" and as soon as he has to do serious acting he cant handle it any better than the others did. This is why I don't think he should be in DMC5, there was nothing special about him in my eyes. Plus his voice doesn't really fit the more rugged manly looking Dante of 4, they should just give some new guy a chance.

I just said 'everyone'.

Couldn't agree more.
As much as I love DMC3, that line made me laugh a while while watching the scene.
Reuben needs replacement. Devil May Cry 5 and onwards will feature a more manly and rough Dante.

:lol: Yeah. That was comic. Personally I prefer the funny Dante over the brooding one. I thought Reuben did Dante good in DMC 4, but since his role seems to be shunted onto the background and he's got less lines than Nero, I doubt they'll even need to find a VA for Dante in DMC 5. He'll just be the silent mopy guy in red leather lurking around the shadows.

That's what the Stupid Files do to ya! Seriously, every time I see that scene where Vergil and Arkham stand side-by-side with their backs towards the viewer, and Vergil's coat-tails kinda get tossed around in the wind - I always think he's FARTING! I can't not see it that way anymore...:lol:

Capcom don't give a damn about what we are attached to, if they were they would not have got rid of Richard Waugh as the voice of Albert Wesker.Cat;192100 said:
