The Japanese version of Groove Coaster 3EX Dream Party has its own voice acting for other navigators besides Linka/Linker although not all navigators have their own corresponding voices but the English version only has one and that is Linka/Linker. What a shame! The new default navigator, Yume, should HAVE the English voice acting but no, there ISN'T ENGLISH VOICE ACTING for her whatsoever. At the Navigator tab, you can choose whichever navigator character you want and on the text box on the right side of the screen, you can clearly see if there's a voice actor involved for the corresponding character or not. For example, Linka/Linker apparently has her own English voice actress as credited but the new default navigator, Yume, doesn't. So, if you choose Yume instead of Linka/Linker in the English version, you get the default announcer that is recycled from Groove Coaster 2 except the English pronunciation isn't native. It's like Linka/Linker takes over the English version as the main navigator of GC3EX Dream Party when Yume is SUPPOSED to be the main navigator.
Also, WHAT IS THE POINT OF PUTTING OTHER CHARACTERS IN THE GAME AS NAVIGATORS WHEN THEY DON'T HAVE THEIR CORRESPONDING VOICES? This is like putting custom costumes in a game with no corresponding purposes whatsoever. The same thing may or may not go for cosplays depending on the character you're dressing yourself as. Certain games already have the costume-specific special skills, moves, attacks, etc. but to put something like a custom navigator may or may not require voice acting at all. There should be no such thing as partially voiced list of navigators when the others don't have ones at all.
One special idea I have in my mind is that for every different costume the character wears, the character should have their own moves, quotes, poses, motions and other stuffs related to the corresponding costume worn but it may mean the replacement of some default stuffs the character normally does. So, what about the announcer/navigator part? Will the announcer/navigator wearing different costumes affect the way they announce?
Lastly, to unlock additional navigators will mean the contribution to the in-game events by adding tons of event points which is a money-consuming idea compared to doing the same thing on other platforms since it's an arcade game and I'm already lagging behind as if the players are seriously hardcore at the rhythm game genre and especially for Groove Coaster series. They may be tons of times better than me but if the song is manageable enough, it's a sign of relief.
Imagine the Vocaloid characters doing the navigation of Groove Coaster... That will turn us off when that happens if done incorrectly. For Voiceroid, the limitations so far are the expressions and emotions and the EX-voices for some characters are not quite enough. Even if you make various adjustments on how the Voiceroid characters say certain things, things may still sound robotic and asking for Voiceroid characters to be in Groove Coaster as custom navigators without knowing their technical limitations is an absolute face-slap!
By the way, I had already changed my player name again as it appears that my nickname is too long to fit.
