Bens work on ffxvi is nothing short than outstanding. Ffxvi wouldn't have been nearly as good without his performance. There are some fights in which he goes full death metal, loved it.
Geez why is everyone in the cast so attractive? 😥 Appreciate you both!! 💕 Also, hearing that Ben went out of his way to reach out to Ray Chase is honestly very wholesome. Someone tell him that Ray also has a great liking for Final Fantasy 8! Noctis approved.
@@annardemetriou It's true. Absolute perfection. I also just have to say that knowing the two of you are gamers makes me love you both even more as performers, because I know you really, truly get how important what you do is to people playing these games. That not to say non-gamer voice actors don't care or try to phone it in, but there's something about having that passion for gaming that I can feel makes you care even more. And lastly, hearing Ben gush about Octopath Traveler II made me so happy. I love the game so much- it's probably my GOTY (sorry, I love FFXVI too, but something about Octopath II just fulfills me) and hearing Ben go on about it was so wonderful
Even if you don't love FF16 it's worth trying FF7Remake. It is wildly different . It was a free game to claim on ps+ a few months back so if you snagged it, you really got nothing to lose.
I love this game so much, and you guys killed it with your performances! I'm not trying to promote myself in any way here, just wanted to share with you that I've created all the lofi beats in the background. And, seeing you both vibe to it was a crazy awesome moment for me as a music producer and a huge honor. Thanks a bunch, you rock!
Final Fantasy 16 has become one of my all-time favorite games, absolutely ((long-time ff fan). You guys did a fantastic job! I rarely even replay games, only a small handful, and will definitely be replaying it multiple times I think (I'm playing NG+ in ff mode currently). But just wow - I'm so sad I had no idea Square Enix would be at Pax West (fellow Washingtonian); I would have loved to see Nina and Ben!
Never mind the human he is and the basically perfect performance he gave as Clive. He also loves Journey and the gambit system from FFXII Kudos to this man👏🧑🍼
Thank you both so much for doing this, and thank you Ben for one of the most legendary voice acting performances I've heard in all of media. Can't even describe how well he brought Clive to life.
Why has this video become almost a comfort video just because you two are so funny and chill together. Now, Anna, I would just DIE if you could pull together a video with Ben AND Charlie, because i just know that the three of you together would be the most entertaining thing that has ever happened on the Internet 😆 besides the inevitable banter and sass, I would love to see you each try reading a line as your characters and then evaluate each other :)
You were both incredible in the game. Currently my GOTY but I’ve yet to play BG3. Loved every minute of this video. Great questions, the banter between you two, the jokes and Ben being Ben.
I was on the fence when it came to FF16 at first and then I played the demo and heard Clive and was hooked to the point that I paid way to much money on the game in the end by buying the deluxe edition and when the collectors edition became available I bought that also. Ben did such and amazing job as Clive, his voice was incredible for the role and look of the character. he made him really a character that you feel bad for him. Benedikta was one of my favorite villians. Dorys reminds me of me, where you just judge yourself so hard even though you shouldn't. Beautiful game.
This was entertaining from start to finish. I’m very happy that Ben’s Twitter lead me to this video and your channel! Final Fantasy 16 is my favorite game of 2023, and seeing you two like this game me deeper appreciation of the characters.
The spoilery talk at around 1:10:00 makes me feel so happy-I felt exactly what Ben described in the line readings during my first playthrough, like actually sobbed during the scene because of it aaaahhhhhh
@@annardemetriouOdds aren't super high you're gonna see this comment since its been 6 months but just wanted to say that yeah, I dug your performance too. There was something about her character, partly her particular story and partly the way you delivered her that made her stand out when I was otherwise not initially super interested in what she might've had going on. I think it's that you took it as seriously (or seemingly so if you didn't lol) as you would if it were a more major role so the effort and depth wass still there which I appreciated. I also love seeing you and Ben together and it's awesome whenever actors/VAs hang out irl and mess around, especially if it's while still related to the project they were involved in. Also didn't think about it in the game but when watching the video early on I was like "damn she sounds kinda familiar beyond FF16" and then you mentioned Plague Tale and I was like "omg there it is!" Sadly never finished that game but I remember ya now!
Hopefully with the PC release more people get to experience this kick ass top notch game. The story is great, compelling and touching. Game play, combat, etc. is amazing as well. The graphics are dope too.
I just got the platinum for the main game and the algorithm blessed me with this vid! Subbed. Loved this stream and there's something super satisfying about Ben being good with the combat. 🤘🏽
Hey Anna! I'm on my New Game + run of FFXVI....I knew the voice of Doris sounded familiar to me and never realized it was you. Wow, how cool! I know you have said that you and Ben were friends, but I didn't realize you acted in this game. This game made my year. I got out of my comfort zone (I prefer turn-based) and felt like I was actually persevering and growing, in stride with Clive. The voice acting was superb. Clive was the first thru-and-thru good male protagonist that we have seen lead a Final Fantasy game, in a long time. He hardly ever hesitated to help anyone in need, even a stranger. Ben did a stellar job with Clive's emotional depth - I loved how he made Clive's snide sarcasm sound like endearing swag.
Thanks for this Anna and Ben! Loved the Q&A after just finishing this game for the first time. My highlight is 1:19:45 which caught me so off guard that I spat out my drink!
This entire thing is the greatest vibe As for your sweet tooth, seeing as you love crème caramel and brulé, would really recommend tracking down a similar Filipino dish called leche flan! It's very similar and is silky, sweet, creamy...as a fellow crème-anything lover (and a half Filipino haha) can't recommend it enough! It's my personal favourite:)
If I remember correctly flan started in Spain and was introduced to other places like Mexico and the Philippines when the Spanish went around conquering
@@JoseLopez-us7zo yep, that's true, and it's kind of crazy just how much we went in different directions with it! Leche flan is more like a smooth, custard-like flan, which is typically very light (using condensed and evaporated milk), whereas my understanding of Mexican flan is that it's a bit more dense (using cream) Basically all I'm hearing is that you can have Mexican flan for when you want a more filling desert, and Filipino leche flan for when you're running tight on space in your stomach 😅
*spoilers* Ben, I just want you to know that what you meant to communicate with that "I love you" scene HIT. Hearing you explain exactly what it meant deepens it even more. It was one of the most sweet, beautiful, fulfilling, tragic confessions of love I've ever witnessed, so BRAVO for putting so much thought and heart into this game. The way Clive and Jill are both choking up during the goodbye is so real. I just love them so much. 🥺🥺 Tearful reunion WHEN?!! As a non-Playstation/PC owner who has never touched an FF game before, Anna's streams and this interview (pre-spoilers) inspired me to go find a UA-cam movie of this game because I was intrigued and it absolutely blew me away. The writing, the visuals, the characters... Stunning. Thank you!!
"Svarog! Welcome to Russia"😊 one of my favorite line on stream thank you! Final Fantasy XVI gave me childhood feelings in an adult way. This game is PEAK of gaming! Your voice acting job is astonishing! Love the story of Dorys! Greetings from Russia, dear Anna❤️
I would love to hear their voice acting in FF14 some day. I have no idea if they have played it but it would be great to see them stream that game as well. As for FF16, I wish I had a PS5 but all I got is a PC. This was a wholesome video and hope to see more streams like this one.
This was such a fun Q+A session! Thank You Anna for organising it and being a wonderful Dorys! Also Thank You Ben for taking part in this and for being such an incredible Clive! Final Fantasy XVI is one of the best games ever! It’s hot as Ifrit’s fire 🔥 and I will happily play it again and again anytime I want! 🩷
@@GamingAfterBed A person of taste! Thank you! And ah yeah, the FFXVI playthrough is a Twitch recording which I know UA-cam isn't massively a fan of. The majority of my uploads now though are recorded!
See my problem with Odin is that it revolves around using one move, Zantetsuken. Your other Eikons just have more going on. Zan is good for clearing out groups of enemies but that is about all I use it for. I don't like using it on bosses. Now that we have load outs it is easy to switch things up. So I do keep Odin on one of them.
I'm a PlayStation guy too. I remember growing up playing the great "God of War games. Uncharted series Assassin's Creed series "Dynasty Warriors series and WWE games and Sleeping Dogs. Transformers Fall of Cybertron. Call of Duty campaigns. Tekken Series. PS3 was awesome bro.
Y'all are SO CUTE. I could watch you two all day.

I do have a big crush on clive and now seeing the actor even more 💖✨love you both!!!
hahah I think a lot of people do! Thank you for watching!
Personally, Clive is the best looking guy, so far, throughout the Final Fantasy. Even if he has scars on his face, he's still hot.
Geez why is everyone in the cast so attractive? 😥 Appreciate you both!! 💕
Also, hearing that Ben went out of his way to reach out to Ray Chase is honestly very wholesome. Someone tell him that Ray also has a great liking for Final Fantasy 8! Noctis approved.
Get yourself a partner that talks about you like Ben talks about Clive.
he is one of the best English language VAs I've heard!
I occasionally come back to this video to rewatch you and Ben dancing. It brings me joy

Final Fantasy 16 is gonna be my very first FF game I will ever experience once I make my time for it.
you should play the final fantasy 7 remake project afterwards if you have playstation 5
@@PxIarix Depends how much I'll love FF16. But we'll see.
Even if you don't love FF16 it's worth trying FF7Remake. It is wildly different .
It was a free game to claim on ps+ a few months back so if you snagged it, you really got nothing to lose.
Same here, looking forward to play it
Both 7 remake and 16 are great truly modern Final Fantasy games.
