@@li-limandragon9287 The worth of voice actors is not comparable to that of live actors. While good voice acting goes a long way to bring the game to life and more accurately conveying who a character is meant to be and how they experience their emotions, it is far from the most vital aspect of a video-game's creation. Video-games can stand well on their own completely devoid of voice acting, provided everything else is well made. Outside of some incredibly small minority that I'm certain must exist, people do not buy video-games for the voice actors, or in other words, their is little to no fame to be bought in acquiring their talent for a project unlike with live actors. With some rare exceptions, as with something like Darkest Dungeon for instance, where the narrator's voice has become core to that game's identity. None of this is meant to be an argument against voice actors being paid better mind you, but people keep treating these positions like they should be the same when they objectively aren't. Perhaps there is something to be said about how this is partly due to a lack of marketing of voice talents (usually it's not presented as a big deal who is voice acting any given character), but that would just be conjecture at this stage.

To be honest, the funniest part to me isn't even related to the video, but the thumbnail, in which _all three_ hosts look they've had egg thrown on their faces. Well played.

Considering HT broke that NDA to try and boycott the game and throw PG under the bus, i'm not surprised his reactions were hostile considering he's not a PR person and acted as a bullet shield for his on-life-support franchise and the on-life-support company that just had a huge flop.

Another thing kinda sus is “I didn’t ask for 250k!” When nobody said 250k, just 6 figures. Kinda weird that she would get defensive about an amount that is over double the minimum alleged amount

Also I would argue from the topic of "man everything is ethically compromised" that everybody has some sort of line. We have to stop treating everyone like product consumption has as much ethical productivity as actually being a decent person and not committing crimes. Everyone has a line when it comes to a person in a bubble rather harmlessly consuming a product, we need to just bother to draw it for ourselves because it's infinitely more complicated than basic human society. tldr: *You are not a bad person because the product you bought is ethically compromised, because by that logic there is not a single human being in first-world societies that is truly pure of heart.*

@jjj7790

Жыл бұрын

This is true and I would also argue against treating passive consumption or passive “boycotting” as effective towards any meaningful change. If you want a company to stop doing unethical business practices, quietly deciding not to buy their products doesn’t do anything about that. Managers looking at sales numbers and missing profits could just as easily blame that on a shitty product or poor marketing instead of people not being fans of the orphan grinder or the serial rapist on staff. *You can’t buy/abstain product your way to a better industry.* Journalism, review-bombing and being annoying on twitter has probably done more for affecting company direction than any amount of quiet buying or boycotting.

Taylor's whole schtick of leaving out key parts of the story reminds me of another similar incident off the top of my head. James C. Burns, who played Frank Woods in Call of Duty Black Ops 1, 2 and 4 was suddenly recast for Cold War. He then went on about how they gave him no warning and the like... Only for it to be revealed he had been warned several times over the years to stop using the Woods character to make money for his own projects, with his channel being straight up named "SGTFrankWoods" and his videos being weird half in character things, culminating in him accepting "donations" to voice the character in a Black Ops 1 mod before Activision's legal department noticed and shut it down (they then went and drank all that milk in the cafeteria to celebrate presumably) forcing the mod to use pre existing lines from the games. Like, the man IS Woods but he got so many warnings and just didn't listen, got recast and started calling for a boycott of the game and very similarly to Taylor started slating his replacement publicly, despite Woods' new VA stating something along the lines of "Burns IS Frank Woods and I can't change that." Then in another unrelated story there is the T.J Rotolo mess with Dead Rising 4 where he wasn't even asked to come back, got recast as Frank West by some guy who was probably more expensive and then got brought back to voice Frank in Marvel Infinite after DR4 crashed and burned.

@@skunthundler oh no no. I phrased that awkwardly. Infinite brought back Frank's ORIGINAL VA from 1,2 and UMVC3 despite releasing after Dead Rising 4. T.J Rotolo said he had no clue why they didn't contact him for 4 since he was free and (my words here not anything he said) cheap. Then Infinite just kinda pretends the 4 thing never happened and no one actually knows what happened there and we'll probably never know because Dead Rising as a franchise is long gone.

@@kapkant6197 Pure speculation on my part here. I think DR4 was potentially an attempt at a soft reboot and they wanted someone else to play Frank going forward. Only for 4 to flop hard and kill any future ideas with that. I say this because this is very similar to Splinter Cell: Blacklist which was a soft reboot attempt. Long standing VA for Sam Fisher was Micheal Ironside but for Blacklist they got a younger guy to take over the role. Blacklist came and went with no fanfair and then what do we see but Micheal Ironside back as Sam for DLC in Ghost Recon: Wildlands.

@@Valzahd I can ACTUALLY confirm Dead Rising 4 was a planned reboot. It came out about a year or two ago that Microsoft had a "first look" contract for Dead Rising where they got to see whatever prototype Capcom Vancouver made first and decide if they wanted to fund it. This was 2013 just after The Last of Us so Capcom Vancouver, wanting to get that Microsoft money, started work on a gritty story driven Last of Us style Dead Rising reboot (bottle throwing and all) which Microsoft loved. They then showed it to Capcom Japan in 2015 (who between this and several other cancelled projects, never checked to see what Vancouver was doing with their money) who immediately told them it wasn't Dead Rising and to change it and it also had to be out for the 10th anniversary. Meaning the current DR4 was developed in about a year.

Yeah, the PSP remake of Rondo of Blood had Symphony as an unlockable bonus, and that bonus version had a complete re-translation and localization, which includes new voice acting. It’s honestly fine, but yeah, it’s also “not the same and can’t be meme’d on, so it’s automatically bad”

When she said Bayonetta's a $450,000,000 franchise, I was like "Bitch where?" My Trinity Masquerade Edition pre-order was never in danger, I got the call from Gamestop about it last night. Also when you say the word "nutter", you've gotta say it like Billy Butcher from "The Boys".

@@miguelnewmexico8641 she kept saying dollars though. As in USD.

So... Woolie was doing a mess with the 450 million math. here is what she did. When you see VGchartz, you see the sales of the series, then the sales of each game in all platforms, and then the sales of each game on each platform individually, but they are all listed in the same table. What she should have done would be to take the sales of the entire series and multiply that by 60 (still a crazy number because most of those were sold on sale but whatever) but she took that, then added every other number in that table, which means she was counting every game twice and sometimes even three times! that is where that crazy number comes from!

Big ups to Suzi for not only being a perfect podcast guest but also starting this segment by eating a very large bowl of crow when it comes to how this whole shitshow played out. Very respectable. Also boy is Woolie doing whatever he can to not walk this back fully. It stops being a lie of omission if she's outright lying to everyone's face.

This is Pure Speculation™, of course, but here's what I think happened; I think Taylor actually liked being Bayonetta, and was quite proud of her performance. She tried playing hardball with her rate because she never imagined they would just replace her, and when they did, she was really hurt and upset by it. That's why she attacked Jen Hale as well as Platinum; no matter what she says now about wanting to put the whole thing behind her, she wanted to be Bayonetta. She wanted that character to be hers. She just let her greed get in the way, and when that cost her the role, she decided to be as petty and vindictive as possible because she was genuinely hurt by losing the role. It's a shame, really. She could have been forever known and beloved as the voice of Bayonetta, but now she will mostly be known for... _this._ A damn shame.

45:27 Pat sounds like Sphere Hunter 🤣

I remember noticing that in her original videos she never disclosed how much she negotiated for. It seemed pretty clear to me that she was ommitting some important details which didn't make sense considering she was breaking NDA and whatnot. And then I learned Jennifer Hale was replacing her and speculated that Taylor must've demanded some absurd amount which would make Hale the cheaper option even though she's such a big name. And it seems like my suspicions may have been correct lol

I was sus of her from the start honestly. I ALWAYS wait to get as much info as possible before taking a stance on stuff like this, and I'm very glad I did lol. I appreciate Helena's work and the VA convo does need to be had, but.... She dropped the ball HARD on her own face.

@li-limandragon9287

Жыл бұрын

A team that works on game is great, but it's the VA that makes you fall in love with the character you're playing as but now it's gonna be harder than ever for people to support that "one person" because of one greedy low profile VA lying and rioting.

At first with this situation, while not wanting to boycott it (as much as I love the games, I know they don’t sell particularly well, so it’s a miracle we got not 1, but 2 sequels), I was gonna wait for a major price drop months after release. Figured if I waited for it this long to come out, I can wait a few months more so they don’t get full price from me. And then the Hellena info came last week, and I just said, “you know what? Fuck it. I’m paying it Friday cause I just wanna play my dumb witch game and be happy.” While not siding with Nintendo for the actor pay shit, Hellena lying and the throwing shade on Jennifer Hale like that lost some good will for me. I still think we need to bring up awareness of of how shit VAs get paid, but some people won’t cause that happening will cause them to not listening to the genuine good thing she said. If you’e still gonna boycott it cause screw Nintendo/Platinum or just tired from this whole thing and don’t wanna play it, cool. It’s your money, use as you will, and don’t be a dick if someone doesn’t share those same thoughts. As for me, like I said, I’m gonna play it Friday and try my best to have fun with it cause honestly, this whole Hellena thing has left me drained.

The discussion of VA's deserving better pay is one to be had for sure. I'm not 100% on residuals on top of that. VA's play a minor role in video games and there is much more work behind the scenes with people who are also underpaid and overworked. They need to be included in the residuals discussion.

I don't know why, but when pat pitch shifted his voice I legitimately thought he and Suzy were somehow talking at the same exact time.
