I checked the comments on the NintendoEverything article (https://archive.ph/f5Waf) which is linked in the OP article.
On the changes being made:
On the English VA being cut:
I nevered played any of the series myself, though it sounds like previously cut content might be added back in, but it is speculation in the comment section.
It said it was making changes "for the current era," and that was obviously a red flag.
I have never played a Baten Kaitos game before. So I guess there's always emulation.
As for the voiceovers? Yeah, I buy it. No matter how good the actors are, if the director doesn't give a shit, there will be bad performances.
And when the actors suck too? There was a PS2 game called Chaos Wars that had an English dub that has to be heard to be believed...
No worries. The interview with the producer is incredibly vague, and I agree that "current era" updates tend to be pointless pandering.
As it is a Japanese title being remastered by a Japanese studio in Japan, I want to believe in a positive outcome, as foolish as that is in current year.
