The Feldragon....has returned to the earth. It would be best if you, the master of dragon slaying, slayed it.

I can't imagine this being much better in Japanese. The pacing...

Tales-knockoff gets all the attention it deserves!

Anyway, it's pretty tough to beat out Shikigami 2 for bad voicework.  At least ARF seems to be somewhat grammatically correct.

The title is kinda old school too...just slapping together 3 words in no coherent grammatical fashion, but in a way that sounds cool.

Is this a parody? Horrifying. A reason to not play the game.

I'm not really seeing the epic badness of these.  The guy just sounds like your typical generic teenage hero type.  The girl sounds weird, but the dialogue suggests she's probably supposed to be a screwed-up alien magic robot doll or something, so it's intentional.  As Sho Nuff says, most of the remaining strangeness is more about the (original) pacing of the cutscenes than anything in the English voices.  It's not a patch on any of the classic bad localizations of the 90s in any case.  (also, it's just tediously bad, not hilariously bad like SO4)

you know, this actually looks good for a wii game.
