Really? A long, detailed, well-thought out opening post and that's all you have to say? You could have just not said anything.

Human performances in games have only been around about 25 years, give or take. If you look at Hollywood in the 40s and 50s, you will see the same thing you see with VG voice actors today. Give the medium some time to mature and develop some talent.
I have, and I still don't agree.
Yuri Lowenthal doesn't have a wide range of voices, and when he does try it's embarrassing like in Metro.
Like I said before I don't like Yuri Lowenthal, you may disagree and that's perfectly okay.

oh wow, I didn't know this. So now he's the ghost AND Cayde?
Last I played Cayde was dead 🤷♂️
That's a cop out though. Take some kind of pride in what you do.Eh, I'm not going to blame Nolan for this, you work with what you're given.
they get them because the industry likes playing things safeI like them all and think they're incredibly talented. That's why they get all the top jobs.
I tend to agree, though I did love the moment when I realized that
Was played by Nolan North. When they're not typecast as the Nathan Drakes or Booker DeWitts of every video game, and when they really try for different roles, they do a great job.
They are annoyingly played out.
Just because it's Troy Baker, doesn't make him perfect fit for certain voices. Like Ocelot for instance.
I have no clue why developers would go for these big names, instead of unknowns (if they do their parts better, which I will assume there are a ton of voice actors out there that don't ever get a chance to partake in project like MGS).
I had no clue Nadine wasn't a black woman in UC4 though, but yeah, no surprise there either. A big named voice actor? "Eh who cares if she's white, she can do a good 'black' voice right guys?". Is how I see it happening.

Going by your posts in this thread, you should be looking a mirror there champ. Just because you're called out for being an asshole doesn't mean you should double down on it.Did you know that voice acting isn't a competition to see how many different voices you can make?
You seem mad.

He voiced Cayde in Forsaken.oh wow, I didn't know this. So now he's the ghost AND Cayde?

He was doing a bunch of incidental dialogue, more than likely other actors read the exact same lines. How was he supposed to know that the games systems would work out in a way that he would talk to himself.That's a cop out though. Take some kind of pride in what you do.
I'll concede to this logic. I have noticed in games, different actors spewing the same 10 lines of dialogue.He was doing a bunch of incidental dialogue, more than likely other actors read the exact same lines. How was he supposed to know that the games systems would work out in a way that he would talk to himself.
I couldn't stand Nolan as Desmond (Assassin's Creed), but that's the directors fault for probably telling him "do Drake".
I read a story where Troy was super gung-ho to play someone crazy like Ocelot and he was disappointed that all he did was spout exposition. I'm pretty sure it's fake but imagine playing the other games gearing up to play this madman and then getting MGSV Ocelot
That's actually pretty funny. Didn't know he did work outside the gaming industry.

If the actors are good and enjoyable, then I don't care how many times they show up. This just doesn't bother me.
Personally, JYB and Steve Blum could do a lot more voices in games and I'd be happy about it. I just like hearing them.
this is also on how fuckin' bad MGSV's writing was sometimesI read a story where Troy was super gung-ho to play someone crazy like Ocelot and he was disappointed that all he did was spout exposition. I'm pretty sure it's fake but imagine playing the other games gearing up to play this madman and then getting MGSV Ocelot
