Cid sounding like a hick makes me sad. I imagined him as being rough around the edges, but I never thought of him as a good ol' boy. Is it really as bad as people say?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

English clip from Sony Site.

Ah, I didn't know that.

A lot of the voice acting has a backlash simply because people having been imagining these characters sounding a certain way for almost a decade. After listening to the english trailers a few times I'm starting to get used to the voices that clash with how I imagined them, such as Cid's.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
