View attachment 595962Turns out Bayonetta voice actress was actually offereded $1000/hour and totally lied about her offer. Picture of me waiting for the twitter mob to apologize to Kamiya, Platinum, and Nintendo.
I took a nuanced approach to this whole fiasco, and didn't really appreciate Ms. Taylor throwing her replacement under the bus and telling people to boycott the game. That these facts came out a few days later definitely left some egg on people's faces. Of course Kamiya still acted like a moron, but the thing that gets me is...
Yeah, voice actors are probably underpaid, but false victimhood only hurts real victims. Hellena really should've either come out with all the facts or just kept quiet, and she definitely shouldn't even have mentioned Jennifer Hale or boycotting the game. In retrospect it makes her seem entitled and whiny, and boy did the tides turn yesterday. I'm also pretty sure that pre-orders for the game have
increased in the last few days, sooooo good job.
Anyway, kept my pre-order and I'm still looking forward to the game. And if I'm being honest, when the first major trailer came about I didn't even notice it was a different VA.
