  • That’s your choice

    It may seem so, but it has been this way in my country all my life, and all the time before, since there were movies in foreign language. I hardly ever had the choice (only in the few years now since the internet has some content with many languages). I have seen very few movies with subtitles (and only some youtube content which is usually terrible either way).

    I can still infer emotions from the tone of voice of the actor.

    That is a given here, too, because the translated audio gets spoken by actors who have learned their craft or by professional speakers. When the original actor is at least a little well known, then the German speaker usually stays the same for life, and so the actor gets known here with this German voice, and nearly nobody knows the original voice.
