Voice actors say four-hour screaming sessions are the unhealthy industry norm.
Embracer CEO demonstrates a masterclass in mental gymnastics in latest interview.
"I'm sure I deserve a lot of criticism, but I don't think my team or companies deserve all the criticism. I could take a lot of that blame myself. But ultimately I need to believe in the mission," he said.
OK give us Kingdoms of Amalur 2 with AAA budget and we will accept your excuse
CGM Writes: While we were over at PAX East, we were able to sit down with Goichi Suda (Suda51) and talk about the upcoming remaster of Shadows of the Damned
We explore the Sega classics that are ripe for revival! From Panzer Dragoon Saga to Virtua Fighter, discover why these legendary games deserve a comeback on next-gen consoles. Dive into a nostalgic journey and see which Sega titles are set to captivate a new generation of gamers in 2024.
Turned based Phantasy Star and Shinning Force remain at the top of my list of Sega IPs that need to return. At the very least I'd take a Shining Force collection that has 1,2,3, CD and the Game Gear entries.
I don't trust Sega to do a proper comeback. The games will be just remastered and/or monetized to death.
woah...
If anyone needs a fill-in Look me up. I'll work for half the pay but I will be stopping, when my throat says so.
Title is somewhat misleading… Hayter said he threw up “because I had to make a bunch of vomiting sounds in a row”. Still sucks, but it’s not like he was doing a 4-hour session and violently threw up on himself, unprovoked.
That said… Work conditions should be fair and decent for ALL employees in ALL careers. I am no voice Dr or specialist so I will take their word for it on how the sessions affect their voices. But I will not support the notion that ANY of these voice actors deserve residual payments for their services. None of my friends who play games actually play them for the voice actors. Sure I like Troy Baker or Nolan North but I won’t buy/not buy a game based on their involvement.
-Why did I buy UC4? Naughty Dog
-What made Axiom Verge great? Tom Happ the sole dev
-Why do people buy Fifa? – not b/c of the announcers
We play games because of the creator(s) behind them, regardless of size or genre. I am ALL FOR royalties to developers. People who spend 1-5+ years of their lives creating something from nothing. They can take my money for the enjoyment every time.
Not the voice actors who will be in 5+ games a year b/c they only need to spend 2-4 weeks recording, maximum.
