Any preference for sub vs. dub? I can't seem to find any details about which English voice actors (or Japanese for that matter) are in this game.

I tried Japanese for a bit, but then quickly changed back. The pawns give useful information and I was missing it because I couldn't understand it. Even if you have subtitles on it's hard to look at them in the middle of battle.

The original game was completely in english, they just made a Japanese track for the Dark Arisen release.

I played most of it in japanese because the repeat lines in english were ticking me off. Japanese I could kinda filter out as background noise.

That is what prompted my decision for english VO. Sometimes the tips they pawns give are pretty useful and there is already so much going on without me having to read those subtitles.
