Now at this point I think everyone in the situation sucks except for Hale, right?

    The victims here are smaller time voice actors whose calls for better compensation have just been delegitimized and spoken over

    The minor actor to unemployed yet wealthy chud superstar pipeline is becoming more cemented each day. Incredible how the hogs will just take over funding someone's extravagant lifestyle after they reveal themselves as a piece of shit.

      Imagine doing some stupid shit like this, and then after securing the bag coming out like "I lied, I'm actually a communist lmao"

        That's kind of the problem with trying to pull a fast one on this is that the bag never stops unless you stop being a piece of shit in which case some wackadoo is going to come after you with a gun almost for sure. Once you get in you can't get out, your only option is to live a life of upper middle class suburban houses and luxury German automotives on the Koch's dime, or lose literally everything because the only place you can get an income from is PragerU and Chud Patreon for the rest of your life.

        You made a deal with the Devil for $54,000 a year in exchange for an occasional appearance on a podcast or in a prageru video, in exchange for being unable to make a penny of money anywhere else for the rest of your life.

      This is it. I'm gonna go and get cast as an extra and wear a MAGA hat to set and when I'm inevitably kicked off I'll whine about it on Twitter and start browsing private jet catalogues for when the hog gravy starts flowing

    Blue Lives Matter, evangelical grifter preachers, anti-abortion

    Is this a modern phenomenon or have English chuds always just copied their entire personalities from American ones? You'd think they'd find American culture war issues lowbrow or whatever. Or is this a thing where you have the traditional upper class blood drinking aristo vampires and then this lower rung of squealing Facebook-fed piggies

      with the exception of Hideki Kamiya being deranged on twitter and making things seem worse than they are.

      spoken like someone blocked for replying in english or breaking any of his other arbitrary rules :gamer:

      it doesn’t seem like they did anything wrong in this particular situation

      The standards of the industry are completely fucked, and Platinum goes along with them, so they're at least as bad as everyone else. Frankly everyone who works on a game in any capacity should get residuals on it, but as it is everyone is overworked and underpaid, and Bayo's actress thought she could parley her position into being underpaid slightly less and found out that she can't because Platinum sees her as replaceable.

      This is why the video game industry needs a proper radical industrial union.

        I think people talk about residuals for voice actors since that is how it is in other industries, but games take much longer to develop that movies or tv shows or other projects. For AAA games a studio might have over 100 devs ( programmers, artists, game designers) working for 3-5 years before they start the voice overs. But the voice actors certainly should get paid more

    I love the character Bayonetta, but tbh I never thought Taylor was a great voice actress. Nice voice, sure, but really mediocre acting.
