It's not perfect by any means, but this was done in roughly 15 minutes. Had I taken more time, I could have made the scenes feel like they were voiced by real humans. This is actually incredible, while it would take a very long time to do, we could in theory add voice acting to all the older Fire Emblem games (as long as the playable units are in Heroes).
I find this incredible and it opens up a lot of doors self-made content, but as an aspiring voice actor who once wanted to voice some of these characters myself I'm in two halves about what this sort of thing is capable of doing in the future. Still amazing though... I'm surprised just how smooth it is and un-ai like as it were.
You could even guess what the ones that aren't would sound like and use a similar voice of someone from a different game (so that it wouldn't sound the same as another character in the same game)
If the AI you used doesn't require transcriptions of the data set, try it with the Japanese voices. I've been pleasantly surprised by models trained on Japanese voices used for English dialog.
Voice acting was like the single great edition to FE with Three Houses. I never really cared too much for support (mostly because they were pain in the ass to get back in GBA) but god damn having it all voiced make me care so much more about all the characters.
@@schnibist He is right tho, they do put a weird accent on certain phrases, when they introduce the "emotion" option for the AI to have while speaking, stuff will really go to new heights
EVERY GAME can be voice acted now, and crappy remakes or bad localisations that change lines of dialogue for "modern audiences" can now be fixed, the options man, think of the options
Holy lets go, AI is going up and up. We encounter goldmine every single day. This could be another branch of for a series of meme and genre. Love the voices in here!
I think it is incredible that we've come so far in our society that we can have AI voice act in old games that didn't allow it. But unfortunately, AI voices can't yet capture human emotions and reactions. I've also seen people use AI voice acting for JoJo's all-star battle. Anyway, this was very interesting, in my opinion. Keep it up. Would you make more "I used AI to voice act..." Fire Emblem or games or/and anime that never got dubbed? Don't have to be full episodes, certain scenes are fine.
We need to petition Mangs to make a romhack patch that puts the AI voice acting in any and all of the GBA FE's that are playable and/or have voices in any of the titles that have voice acting.
This is one of the uses for this technology I am most excited about. Think how many more games will be able to be fully voice acted, and sound pretty good on top of it! Especially for independent developers this is a game changer.
I do find it problematic from an ethical standpoint because of the the inherent issues with AI, and the creative people vehemently disliked it for that reason when I voiced the idea to them (pun intended, and I had the thought entirely on my own, I promise). But it's such an appealing thought!
I need a whole rom hack that just adds the voices now my first fire emblem I played was 7 when I was a kid and this would hit me in the feels to relive this amazing game with voices.
Dude that felt so surreal it was really fuckin amazing especially since thins was my first fire emblem oooo how it would be cool to get a well done remake
One one hand this is really cool and I do like it. On the other hand, this technology is a little intimidating how far it's come. I hope voice actors don't lose their jobs to AI.
Yeah, it's a fine line to tread. Unfortunately it's a conversation that's being had in all sorts of industries where AI is being introduced. It doesn't help that people are so impressed with the results that they aren't considering the ethics. I just read a comment that suggested using dead people's voices without skipping a beat, so I think it's something that really needs to be addressed.
Wow! I had heard voice AI was getting good but hadn't seen many examples besides the presidents memes (and of course there is TONS of training data for them). This is really good!!
This is cool. It's a smidgen rough, where some inflections don't seem right and proper names aren't pronounced consistently (though the same character never pronounces it two different ways, so that's actually believable). The fact that it can be this good in 15 minutes is _really_ impressive, even in spite of the flaws! You can only imagine how far this can go with some dedicated effort...
"Professor, I have something to ask of you. It seems that a devious and evil mage has been using a strange, yet intelligent tool to make "dank meems", whatever those are, with a voice uncannily similar to my own. Please put a stop to it."
This amazing and astonishing, the ai boom as of late has been wild. Yet i wasnt expecting such massive leaps in ai, much less it being open to the public
This being an older game does also both cover up and excuse the "robotic" effect of the voices! This could actually turn out fantastic, the only issue would be something that requires a lot of expression, such as screaming. That's always hard.
Now you can enter the complete story of video games area of youtube. Do this for the entire game's dialogue in one video, you'll get tons of views & people who haven't played the games will be able to experience the story in an immersive way!
It was trained in 15 minutes. The point isn't that the voice acting is particularly good. Its that with only 15 minutes and whatever minimum sound files Fire Emblem Heroes had, the AI can already sound human. Give it more time and more voicework and it will sound like a convincing person.
...it's weird, but all three of these sound exactly how I figured they'd sound! I mean, yeah, Lyn's deep Smash voice is fine, but she IS supposed to be young, so...
Gentlemen, if Nintendo will not remaster these classics, we shall do it ourselves. The FE engage modding scene is growing quick and I would LOVE to see remasters done in that engine with full voice lines
THIS is how AI voicing should be used. I would love to see/hear the older GBA games get VA. Sacred Stones would be a riot, especially the convocation between L'Arachel and Innes 🤣
The real question is, can this give The Last Promise better voice acting? As far as I know it was one of the first fire emblem ROM hack to implement it
@@sootythunder3111 At that point, we're basically imagining a human storyteller who can work with you 24/7. Of course, a mind who's just as capable as a human is just as dangerous as a human. What lengths will it go to to give you your perfect story?
@@General12th well ultimately that would come down to if there is an intended script for a structured story. If it was say a final fantasy game where it’s a character driven story that explores interpersonal relationships it would be far more linear, that being said if it was a sandbox environment say something like Skyrim it would be much more free flowing, for instance you might heavily favor the vampires of castle Volikhar completely ignoring the civil war and the main story, you might see a scenario play out where the AI script writer sees you having vampire feed all across Skyrim that it decides that the volkihar vampires have become such a persistent threat in Skyrim that it puts a hold on the civil war were the stormcloaks and imperials agree to a cease fire until the vampire threat is eradicated much like what happens in vanilla Skyrim if you don’t side with 1 of them before fighting Alduin However it is completely reactive
@@General12th that’s the thing, the mind is not as capable as a human’s ai as we know it today is little more than an advanced version of one of those auto completing search engines
Absolutely not the voice I would like for Lyn, but, oh, well. I feel scared, honestly. For the Voice Actors. I hope we never come to a time where they feel voice actors are superfluous because all voices can be made with AI.

Only 15 minutes? Wow
I like how the AI decided to copy Lyn’s mic quality too.
All this accomplished was making me want voice acted GBA FE remakes

Ye
How an AI could produce something THIS accurate is incredible

Other than the inflections being improper in a few places, this actually feels pretty genuine
ah, the "inflections". we got a real linguist here, huh?
@@schnibist how would you say it?
if anything, prosody, specifically intonation, is slightly off at times. inflection is a meaningless word people throw around a lot

I based it off his Heroes voice files.
@@Mangs1337 wonder why they casted him like that, though i wouldn’t say its completely *unfitting*
Yeah, I thought his voice would be somewhat deeper
I think it makes sense

This is so cool!! Sain's voice sounds really really great for the first bit here!
Not gonna lie, I thought this was going to be cringey but wow, it sounds really good
Kent sounds a little off but damn sounds pretty good, whenever we get a fe7 remake I hope it has the heroes voice actors
Oh this is so darn good, of course this doesn't replace real voices, just imagining the GBA Fire Emblems fully voice acted makes me happy
EVERY GAME can be voice acted now, and crappy remakes or bad localisations that change lines of dialogue for "modern audiences" can now be fixed, the options man, think of the options
Oh boy, I can't wait for the legendary BATTA THE BEAST's voice lines
You should use ai to re voice the path of radiance and radiant dawn cutscenes
Or better yet, to give engage a better story.
Always lost in your book.
It's a tragedy that black knight vs ike cutscene in radiant dawn didn't have any battle monologue from either
"Yes, of course. Interesting maneuver"
@@cheryl9809 I can't hear them have monologue, it just... doesn't fit
The classic line/meme "Ah, Kent! My boon companion! Why so severe an expression?" was delivered surprisingly well.
I think the jank actually works to the gba sprite benefits. I want all 3 gba games with AI voice actors
That is way better than I thought it would be.
AI is really going to be going places in the future.
When sain said oooh, i did not expect it to be so expressive. Like damn
Holy lets go, AI is going up and up. We encounter goldmine every single day. This could be another branch of for a series of meme and genre. Love the voices in here!
What if there’s an AI voiced playthrough, using the voice samples from Fire Emblem Heroes?
Sain and Kent sound AMAZING, I love it
I think it is incredible that we've come so far in our society that we can have AI voice act in old games that didn't allow it. But unfortunately, AI voices can't yet capture human emotions and reactions.

Would you make more "I used AI to voice act..." Fire Emblem or games or/and anime that never got dubbed? Don't have to be full episodes, certain scenes are fine.
Outside of a few awkward pauses here and there it actually sounds really good
Inb4 someone uses this for a fan-made FE7 remake of sorts
You should use the scuffed anime voices for shadow dragon. Imagine the archer.
But maaarrrsss...
He could also use voice samples from Evangelion, since that was recorded by the same voice cast.
Five Points!
This. This is the herald of the end of days
This is actually pretty good, now I want that remake
That sounds like voice actors actually saying the lines, incredible!
The AI taking breaths is sending me; this if far better than I thought it would be
this was genuinely good
We need to petition Mangs to make a romhack patch that puts the AI voice acting in any and all of the GBA FE's that are playable and/or have voices in any of the titles that have voice acting.
Now I want this AI to voice act my games
Desperately need this for Sain’s dragon’s gate dialogue ⚔️
Considering how little the AI probably had to go off that's very good. With more lines and improved AI later on, it could probably be even better.
This is one of the uses for this technology I am most excited about. Think how many more games will be able to be fully voice acted, and sound pretty good on top of it! Especially for independent developers this is a game changer.

Got to do more of these man that ended up so well!
This is fantastic omg this would really get me playing FE7 again
Very cool! What did you use to generate this? Eleven labs?
Yep!
Wow! I had heard voice AI was getting good but hadn't seen many examples besides the presidents memes (and of course there is TONS of training data for them). This is really good!!
This is really great, what a time to be alive.
Now I just want to fe7 with voice lines. I love how the ai somehow nailed the tone of lyn’s insult

Sain sounds awesome,
This technology terrifies me at the same time.
All 3 of those sound great. I even like Lyn's slightly off audio quality. Adds its own charm and fits the old game graphics well.
"Professor, I have something to ask of you. It seems that a devious and evil mage has been using a strange, yet intelligent tool to make "dank meems", whatever those are, with a voice uncannily similar to my own.
Please put a stop to it."
This amazing and astonishing, the ai boom as of late has been wild. Yet i wasnt expecting such massive leaps in ai, much less it being open to the public
Lyn and Sain sound bang on, but Kent sounds FAR more youthful than I would have imagined.
Lyn sounds somewhat believable, but Sain and Kent sound NOTHING like i imaged they would
What! I expected the voices to sound a bit more robotic! This is actually great!
Thank you Mangs. Thank you for all you do. This video is fun to listen to and watch!
holy shit. This is amazing. Please do the whole game
Actually incredible!! Well done, Mangs!
Kent sounds more like Roy here... anyway awesome job for this.
This being an older game does also both cover up and excuse the "robotic" effect of the voices! This could actually turn out fantastic, the only issue would be something that requires a lot of expression, such as screaming. That's always hard.
Games : dosen't have voice acting because of budged/hardware limitations
Fans : *Fine, I'll do it myself*
Yooo, thats incredible! It felt completeley normal, like they were just normal voiceactors. holy
This is actually super badass
impresive very nice, lets hear swinging swords ai voice over
Bro, That's amazing
This is really good. I'd like to see more.
Now to somehow put this in Andaron saga...
Dang It's Incredible How The AI Almost Sounded Exactly Like Kent,Sain And Lyn.
Now I Want A Fire Emblem GBA Remake That Is Voice Acted.
Impressive. Now do it with Sacred Stones. I wanna hear Eirika's dialogues with Kira Buckland's voice.
Kira really be carrying the badass female VA role. I'd love it.

the stiffness of the delivery matches the flat 2d shot reverse shot character dialogue.
The way it says "Oooooh..." 😂😂
This sounds a lot better than I expected, though my only gripe is how Kent sounds as I personally picture with a deeper voice than what was shown
This is impressive AND scary.

Whoa Sain's voice sounds exactly how I thought he would sound
Sounds like the non directed voice acting dubbed anime games got at the time XD
the era of many jobs are coming to an end.
Another victory to our soon-to-be AI Overlords.
Ah Mangs, my boon companion
Wow incredible, I hope to see more of this
Closest there is to the FE7 remake
Pretty impressive but defeated by a single "Tsk"
Has Chaos Wars vibes to it.
