Random factoid: He calls Kefka a fiend because Kefka has an Italian surname, and the Four Archfiends in FF4 were taken from the Italian epic poem The Divine Comedy.
I love all his imput about each character, but I think my personal favourite is about Sephiroth! He knows Sephiroth's potential, yet it is wasted in desire of vengueance and madness.
The most giant of the characters, the most black characters, the most mysterious of the characters , the wisest of the characters and the most WTF?!!? of characters! who it is! Golbez is!
Now THIS IS GOLBEZ! His VA delivered the Feel and the lines fit well. My favorite Character out of the major FF games. Your loss can Strengthen you- i love that victory line.
Was I the only one who noticed his stealth-encouragement to Tidus? "Do not close your eyes to reality." Spoilers: Tidus gives up his existence at the end of FFX; erasing himself from reality. Golbez is telling him that he'll be fine. What happens in two of three FFX-2 endings? He regains existence (which I thought was a cop-out myself, but he was certainly happy about it).
i love golbez hes my favorite character on the game and i love his english voice, he sound such like a badass to me, that also goes for Garland and Exdeath
Dang, he's intimidating here, compared to 012 where he's more of a therapist or encouraging person! I like how the quote for himself also sounded like a perfect line against Gabranth, considering the latter' jobs.
"the faint-hearted have no place here." well, now we found a voice clip to use that for some places with the rule that state "not for the weak of heart". :]
Golbez's surprising nice guy behavior makes sense if you've played Final Fantasy IV - he was just under mind control by the real final enemy right until a certain bearded guy freed him. Everything after that is one long redemption arc for him.
I actually like his quote to Terra in Duodecim: 'Turn from destroyer to angel of hope!' That sounds a bit more appropriate for her than 'No future for the fearful'
Golbez is my favorite warrior of chaos, cause of his intentions of helping the heroes, oh and his words of wisdom. Yet he lets the darkness take over him. I hope he finds the light someday. "Do not close your eyes to reality."
@OzaiFan He was originally part of Cosmos along with Jecht but was brought over Chaos due to the darkness in his heart. He's still rather antagonistic to some of the Warriors of Cosmos.
"You do not even try to understand" LOL exactly. Sephiroth just goes insane based on his own misconceptions and refuses to listen to reason and wants to destroy the universe because of it which is why I can't stand the guy.
Who does Golbez's voice? It sounds like Epic Tony Jay! This, alone, has put Golbez in the spot of Second favourite FF Villain (just behind Kefka, because he's one of the only villains to succeed in what he set out to do).
not only the best suited voice, but also most badass one-liners. this man saw everything and seems to surpass everyone here. mocks suitably even seph ;p
@ShanSinghTV No...I actually think he is the only one that´s not so narcisistic to admit that Kefka is a bit....Fearful. All the other ones must think quite the same, but if you are obsessed with your mother, with a tailed kid, or with a pouser you are wont to admit it do you?
Golbez Quotes in my own words: Warrior of Light: Too much light may cause blindness. Garland: You have no dignity. Firion: I wish you good luck. The Emperor: Is ambition all you believe in? Onion Knight: Good luck, young mortal! Cloud of Darkness: Do I have to stop clouds? Cecil: Will you defeat me? Golbez: I make my own decisions. Bartz: You can't win if you act naive. Exdeath: The "Void" you seek is ominous. Terra: Too much worry is a bad thing. Kefka: Are you a demon? Cloud: This is no place for the weak-hearted. Sephiroth: You are still to naive. Squall: I see some hatred within you! Ultimecia: It is the end for you. Zidane: This will be over before it starts. Kuja: You seem to have brother issues. Tidus: Wake up and see the truth! Jecht: Your sinful love is dangerous. Shantotto: I don't expect mercy from you. Gabranth: You are still tainted by evil.
Golbez here seems more harsh and critical towards his supposed comrades-in-arms than towards those he fights against. Maybe it's just my line of thinking, but the way they present him in Dissidia, is he really on the side he's supposed to be on? O_o
Well he was actually mind controlled by Zemus the real villain of FF4 but after FuSoYa used some magic he regained his senses and became a hero but he couldn't use the crystal due to his childhood sins. Well you were mostly right but I just needed to say that
@DragonSLAYER3545 Some. But compare the few truly hostile remarks to the warriors of Cosmos to all but one against the other warriors of Chaos. Really, darkness or no and regardless of his role in his own game, I say Golbez is questionably placed here.
Random factoid: He calls Kefka a fiend because Kefka has an Italian surname, and the Four Archfiends in FF4 were taken from the Italian epic poem The Divine Comedy.
That's really cool
"Palazzo" also sounds a bit like Portuguese for clown (Palhaço)
lol. When Sephiroth shows his face:
Golbez: "You do not even try to understand."
He calls him out so savage.
I think Golbez is the only person who sees everyone for their true nature and meaning.
Yeah
"What maner of fiend are you?" Wow, even Golbez, who is pretty formidable and a pretty big badass himself, thinks Kefka is absolutely deplorable!
+ChristineTheHippie Now that's the bad guy we love to hate!
+Evelyn L. Didn't I just see you a few days ago? xD
*****
Oh, well Hello again. :)
I love all his imput about each character, but I think my personal favourite is about Sephiroth! He knows Sephiroth's potential, yet it is wasted in desire of vengueance and madness.
I thank you all for your kind compliments. I fear I do not deserve them.
Golbez Eh....
Golbez i think you deserve it
I like the quote about Jecht. Especially that pun where he says, "Love is a sinful thing." But that is spoilers, so never mind.
HA HA I see the spoil.
I love Golbez's voice.
***** Other than his physical appearance and redemption, Golbez is way different compared to Darth Vader.
How so
He sounds like Christopher Lee
I wish they used this voice actor in ff14
he's also Zangief from Street Fighter
The most giant of the characters, the most black characters, the most mysterious of the characters , the wisest of the characters and the most WTF?!!? of characters! who it is! Golbez is!
Golbez definately has potential to join Cosmos' side
"I am my own judge and executioner."
Oh crap, he's becoming Judge Dredd!
liveFinalFantasy THE LAW
Cool!
the higher up the final fantasy heroes go. the less encouragement he gives
Zidane has serious brother issues and Golbez knows that. It was envy that made Zidane and Kuja fall apart.
because Golbez was the same
Now THIS IS GOLBEZ!
His VA delivered the Feel and the lines fit well.
My favorite Character out of the major FF games.
Your loss can Strengthen you- i love that victory line.
Damn that is a fucking sexy voice that Darth Vader can only dream of having.
Wow… ngl he does have a sexy voice
Makes sense that he'd later voice Osborne in Trails of Cold Steel. Sad that he didn't come back for Cold Steel 4 though.
And after he was harsh with a few of Cosmos' champions, he became a motivational speaker in Dissidia Duodecim
"The faint-hearted have no place in here."
Even Golbez masters the Emo-Cloud jokes!
Lol
Was I the only one who noticed his stealth-encouragement to Tidus? "Do not close your eyes to reality."
Spoilers: Tidus gives up his existence at the end of FFX; erasing himself from reality. Golbez is telling him that he'll be fine. What happens in two of three FFX-2 endings? He regains existence (which I thought was a cop-out myself, but he was certainly happy about it).
EPIC LINE : "love is a sinful thing"
i love golbez hes my favorite character on the game and i love his english voice, he sound such like a badass to me, that also goes for Garland and Exdeath
I would change his quote to Shantotto.
"Bitch, I'll show you how it's done."
Transend the stars!!!!
Seriously, between this guy and Keith David, the awesomen voice acting is unmatched.
"Soon you'll be nothing but a memory" is such a raw quote that was completely wasted on Zidane
Dang, he's intimidating here, compared to 012 where he's more of a therapist or encouraging person!
I like how the quote for himself also sounded like a perfect line against Gabranth, considering the latter' jobs.
@MrGothchibi The Golbez show. With special quest Exdeath.
Golbez: "So what are your hobbies"
Exdeath: "TURTLES!!!!! THE VOID!!!!!"
"the faint-hearted have no place here." well, now we found a voice clip to use that for some places with the rule that state "not for the weak of heart". :]
Golbez always has room for great words man reminds me of a fortune cookie
Yep, he certainly has a kickass stage presence, and some genuine insights.
I seriously think I would download Golbez's English voice just to listen to it on my Ipod.
Golbez: Love is a sinful thing.
Jecht: ...You comin' on to me?
Golbez: "A pitiful knight who knows no honor."
Garland: T_T
I kind of think what he says to Zidane is more suited for Sephiroth, though I am perfectly fine for what he says to Sephiroth. Golbez is amazing!
most of his quotes make him sound more heroic than evil.
God DAMN I love Golbez!
Golbez's surprising nice guy behavior makes sense if you've played Final Fantasy IV - he was just under mind control by the real final enemy right until a certain bearded guy freed him. Everything after that is one long redemption arc for him.
Golbez, Exdeath, and kefka. my favorite villians.
of course golbez being my top favorite.
I actually like his quote to Terra in Duodecim: 'Turn from destroyer to angel of hope!' That sounds a bit more appropriate for her than 'No future for the fearful'
Here’s hoping they bring this voice actor back for
Endwalker’s next patch.
Golbez is my favorite warrior of chaos, cause of his intentions of helping the heroes, oh and his words of wisdom. Yet he lets the darkness take over him. I hope he finds the light someday. "Do not close your eyes to reality."
Badass quotes by a very badass man. Enough said.
@OzaiFan He was originally part of Cosmos along with Jecht but was brought over Chaos due to the darkness in his heart.
He's still rather antagonistic to some of the Warriors of Cosmos.
Cloud Of Darkness just got burned.
Golbez sounds like Orsen Wells as Unicron
"You do not even try to understand" LOL exactly. Sephiroth just goes insane based on his own misconceptions and refuses to listen to reason and wants to destroy the universe because of it which is why I can't stand the guy.
i love his vs kefka quote. it needs a mother of god face though...
:takes off glasses:
what manner of fiend are you?
Japanese Golbez makes me giggle then swoon over his voice.
I love golbez voice o-o he sounds so... so deep and nice
I think FF14's Golbez's voice is much more suiting for the character's age but by God is this guy's voice like hot butter.
Honestly the reasons why I bought Dissidia are Golbez and Firion.
golbez: god ime getting tired from swinging my arm to flap my cape. if only the creators had given me more intro movements. lol
"Must I now chase after clouds?" Golbez to CoD
Golbez..chasing clouds..does not compute..=S
That cloak's gonna get all tattered with all that swishing, Golbez.
@fancyshoes002 Dooku was the first thing that I had in mind about him when I started playing this game
I like how they got the same voice actors from the FF 4 DS game. Or at least people who sound very similar to them.
Golbez should have his own talk show.
Golbez, I need help. I want to ride a moose into a castle to save my girlfriend, what would you suggest?
((Late reply, but here goes))
...
"Let your youth guide you in battle." x3
what will sephiroth ever need to understand he knows all
That is an amazing voice.
Golbez has been taking lessons from Rubicante.
See, THIS is what intelligent sorcerers do. They wear mutherfuckin' ARMOR.
Who does Golbez's voice? It sounds like Epic Tony Jay! This, alone, has put Golbez in the spot of Second favourite FF Villain (just behind Kefka, because he's one of the only villains to succeed in what he set out to do).
yeah I agree...hey listen closely at 1:44 when he says do, not, and even it sounded like the voice actor screwed up
not only the best suited voice, but also most badass one-liners. this man saw everything and seems to surpass everyone here. mocks suitably even seph ;p
The Darth Vader of FF
@ShanSinghTV No...I actually think he is the only one that´s not so narcisistic to admit that Kefka is a bit....Fearful. All the other ones must think quite the same, but if you are obsessed with your mother, with a tailed kid, or with a pouser you are wont to admit it do you?
I like Golbez in this game. Very honorable
I think Golbez accidentally said Sephiroth's quote to Zidane.
There are two SF4 voice actors in this one, Golbez' one is Zangief and Exdeath's is M Bison.
So spoiler warning:
Golbez is in FFXIV and I really hope they bring his English VA back.
A wise stalwart? ...Impossible!
Very cool.
Golbez Quotes in my own words:
Warrior of Light: Too much light may cause blindness.
Garland: You have no dignity.
Firion: I wish you good luck.
The Emperor: Is ambition all you believe in?
Onion Knight: Good luck, young mortal!
Cloud of Darkness: Do I have to stop clouds?
Cecil: Will you defeat me?
Golbez: I make my own decisions.
Bartz: You can't win if you act naive.
Exdeath: The "Void" you seek is ominous.
Terra: Too much worry is a bad thing.
Kefka: Are you a demon?
Cloud: This is no place for the weak-hearted.
Sephiroth: You are still to naive.
Squall: I see some hatred within you!
Ultimecia: It is the end for you.
Zidane: This will be over before it starts.
Kuja: You seem to have brother issues.
Tidus: Wake up and see the truth!
Jecht: Your sinful love is dangerous.
Shantotto: I don't expect mercy from you.
Gabranth: You are still tainted by evil.
Golbez is is an awesome knight
@RecklessDragoon Oh. Thanks for the note
Probably refers to Jecht's own family problems and hey, how many would you be willing to hurt for the sake of those you care about...
Transcribed audio at 0:57 and the combination of 1:43 to 1:55 LMAO!!
This guy's voice reminds me of the men's warehouse dude.
did anyone notice that Golbez is a therapist?
Golbez seems more hero than villain
@devilnier even if he knows all, doesnt mean he understands it all :)
Darth Golbez.
@matteste Anthony Landor did Golbez's voice in FF4 DS
Peter Beckman in Dissidia.
Golbez here seems more harsh and critical towards his supposed comrades-in-arms than towards those he fights against. Maybe it's just my line of thinking, but the way they present him in Dissidia, is he really on the side he's supposed to be on? O_o
I dunno why but Golbez makes me think of Mufasa..
Well he was actually mind controlled by Zemus the real villain of FF4 but after FuSoYa used some magic he regained his senses and became a hero but he couldn't use the crystal due to his childhood sins. Well you were mostly right but I just needed to say that
@RecklessDragoon Isn't she also the voice of Lust in FMA?
@dragonstormx well i kinda sounds the same as sweet tooth from twisted metal black are they same voice actors ?
greeting, I'm Golbez and my voice kick ass.
Golbez real name is Theodor O.o
@drgn2288 thank you. i've been wondering.
@matteste
No, it's the same voice.
Golbez Prime Vader
Jecht loves Tidus thus became Sin in FFX!!!
are you sure he wasn't voiced by james earl jones?
To Kefka: What manner of fiend are you?
pft. HAHAHAAHA~
Mexican Darth Vader ftw
Cecil, I am your brother
Now with words like that, why should Golbez be a bad guy???
@golbezchaoslord Snes Final Fantasies FTW
@DragonSLAYER3545 Some. But compare the few truly hostile remarks to the warriors of Cosmos to all but one against the other warriors of Chaos. Really, darkness or no and regardless of his role in his own game, I say Golbez is questionably placed here.
