Noctis' localized lines are less of an outright change compared to Ignis' or Gladio's. instead, what stands out the most is the delivery.

in the original Japanese version, Noctis has a noticeable edge to his voice and there is often an attitude in the way he speaks. this is especially highlighted in his dynamic with Ignis, as described here. he comes off as less of an 'awkward potato' and a bit more of a brat (affectionate).

what's interesting is that, while Noctis is the only one of the Chocobros whose localized persona was somewhat influenced by his original voice actor (Tatsuhisa Suzuki)'s vision, the localization team still went to great lengths to make sure the version of Noctis western fans heard would be significantly different:

( source: Wikipedia )

because JP Noctis is more immature (and 'unreliable' as he is repeatedly described in the game), his growth as a character throughout the events of the story is highlighted fully. one of the most significant examples of this is his famous line during the final campfire scene, which arguably hits a lot harder in Japanese:

( previous comparisons: Ignis Part I - Ignis Part II - Gladio )

I want to point out this poignant line of Gladio's, from his introductory chapter in Opera Omnia:

(from Lost Chapter: Around the Fire)

Until. UNTIL he becomes king T_T

Oh and because I quite like the full conversation (it adds some nice characterisation for Gladio):

P.S. I'm not sure if I agree with the DFFOO writers about Gladio saying "[his] father died without fulfilling his duty".

Would he actually say that? idk tbh. Gladio does have high, strict expectations for himself and those around him (e.g. Noctis), but... Clarus died in the line of duty, as a Shield trying to protect their King - so can you really say he didn't fulfil his duty? I feel like Gladio would recognise that and be proud his father never faltered until the last.
