My Interview with the wonderful voices of Alisaie and Alphinaud from Final Fantasy XIV



It was such a pleasure having Beth and Colin on the channel to talk about the ins and outs of Final Fantasy XIV, Music, Voiceover, and all different types of subjects revolving around the arts and life.

  1. I'm so happy we're getting these long-form interviews from voice actors, I wish I could hear thoughts from Joe dempsey(Ardbert), Rene Zagger(Emet), or Matt Stokoe(Elidibus).

  2. Awesome interview and great video. Loved them talking about appreciating more and more how much its helped people, I started FFXIV not long into my recovery after a stroke, pretty much felt dead inside and both the story and music of 14 made me feel so many range of emotions that I will forever be thankful to anyone who played their part in making and continuing to make the masterpiece it is. Alphi and Alisaie would not be the characters they are today without the excellent delivery and personality that both Beth and Colin bring, didn't get the chance to meet them in London at Fanfest but hopefully next time!

  3. With Colin starting the game, I wonder what his reaction will be to some of the unvoiced lines. There's some BANGER dialogue that the voice actors would never know about… I'd particularly like to see Bethan's take on the "Good and bad, they are mine. They are me" speech

  4. I love the twins!❤ Without Colin or Beth it just wouldn't be the same. Thank you for this interview!

    I hope we get interviews from the other VA's too someday, not necessarily from you but in general. I don't think we appreciate our VA's as much as Japan does, it's a shame!

  5. I love how your video gives a lot more insight on how Beth and Colin approach voice acting for XIV. I really wish SE would give the English VAs more spotlight on-stage during events like Fanfest. The JP VAs get a lot of spotlight from them and the fans appreciate them a lot. Hope the English and the rest of the other VAs get the same treatment too.

  6. Look thank you for going into the harder stuff in the middle and keeping control. Holy hell, I don't know how you did. Thank you for the very deep questions, good editing and great guests.

  7. I really enjoyed this interview, Marco. I main an Elezen in the game and have jokingly told friends in my FC that my character has "adopted" the two twins. I appreciate both of their work immensely in the game and wanted to pass along my thanks to them. <3 In particular, I would say the amount of emotion in Bethan's delivery while voicing Alisaie has made her possibly my favorite of the Scions. Thanks again, everyone, for the video, and looking for to hearing their work in DT!
