Even if the lip sync isn't perfect the option for Japanese VO is still cool and maybe could go that direction if I wanted.
But I think I'll stick with the English.

Wait, why the ban here? Dude clearly didn't know the term he used was derogatory, and even acknowledged his mistake?
Edit: never mind, just realised there's more behind this.

God damn who needs next gen with games looking as good as this! Now let's just hope SP also nailed the story and combat.
How is it possible that a current gen console can display such jaw dropping visuals? It's INSANE.
This is how you do a trailer. Obviously it was in engine with segments of gameplay available to see and didn't reveal too much, but gave you an idea of what to expect. I think this looks way more interesting to me than TLOU2, but whatever.
Hell, I play almost every single game that has a Japanese voice option in Japanese. I only understand certain words from watching a ton of anime, but their voice actors just put a lot more emotion into their performance. Not to say that every English voice-over is bad, I actually really enjoyed the English voices in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. It's just more times than not, the Japanese voice actors do a better job, even if I can't fully understand what they're saying. A lot of times the English voices actually make the game seem less serious and more awkward
To me if the game is exceptionally Japanese or anime styled like Persona 5, Fire Emblem: Three Houses or Sekiro then it seems way more fitting to play it with Japanese voices.
Its strange to me that they would make such a hugely Japanese inspired game that literally drips with that kind of imagery and then have the default language option be English, it kinda ruins the mood for me a bit.

Playing a western game using the native language of the territory its based in only to experience a japanese movie in a western style audio dub sync..................

Not necessarily. While FF7R used facial motion capture for the Japanese voice over, it uses computer-generated lip-syncing for non-English languages.
It doesn't look perfectly natural but most of the time it's surprisingly accurate. Certainly better than the alternative, which is not doing anything about it.
Same reason the actors in Gladiator speak English.
