Well Tidus in FF-X had very little emotion most of the time and there were parts where i just got out of the story because of some poorly acted weird bit, which is pretty bad for a RPG, don't get me wrong though, there's way worse voice acting out there, but in an RPG i want good voice acting to make the characters seem more "alive" i guess, it's not like the game is unplayable, i just prefer the original and for me personally it kills the story if a characters voice annoys me.

Auron on the other hand had really convincing voice acting which complemented the character's personality.

it could just be my personal tastes ofc, but I really prefer the Japanese voice acting, since i've never been annoyed by Japanese voice acting in a game unlike U.S/Euro voice acting, where in almost every game there's atleast one character whose voice is poorly chosen, or simply annoying.
Mostly because they got a wrong voice actor for the job. (because of the sound of his/her voice) i mean a 14 year old kid who sounds like a 28 year old guy who puts on his best squeeky voice isn't really convincing.
