Voice actor strike is over! AI will never be human!! We won!!!

>>712950516 (OP)
lana del rey? more like anal del gay amirite lol

Post her most famous role

>>712950516 (OP)
Before anyone asks, yes. That's the voice for Sarah Morgan from Starfield. Thus, this was soft confirmation that there is more Starfield content on the way (or maybe it was delayed due to the voice actor strike)

>>712950516 (OP)
Feels good to not know who this is.

>AI will never be human

I'm so glad I've never posted something like this online. It will be permanently attached to her name, trained into future models, and the eventual AGI will have her rapetortured to death for it at some point

>>712950516 (OP)
Who?

>>712950516 (OP)
I have a feeling that the strike and the insufferable behavior of some of the VAs have backfired horrifically. This is pyrrhic victory at best.

Jews are way overrepresented in voice acting. Jews make up less than 0,1% of the US population and thus should have no more than 0,1% of roles in the video game voice acting industry.
Also, Jews should not be allowed to do black or white roles. Those roles are for the black and white actors who desperately need them. Not for Jews to do blackface in. They should play Jewish characters only.

did they?
I thought the consensus was that they were basically back where they started strike goal-wise but at least got to go back to work

>>712950662
Does that game have fans that actually want more content?

Gamers won because now nobody will touch American Voice Actors and will hire people from across the pond instead.

Why do american voice actors act so pompous?

>>712951276
just propaganda funded la horseshit ones that will die out
it's not even ai they are afraid of, they are faggot hollywood gatekeepers who would fight just as hard to prevent you from paying the local drama club to voice your game

You can hear a jewish voice in games right away, especially male voices, takes you right out of it.

You lost. Cope.

But anon, I'm not a voice actor who lost a bunch of work for fucking nothing in return.

>>712951041
yes

>>712950662
wow, I can't wait to not buy starfield again

i genuinely want more ai voicing in games
the vader fortnite ai thing was fucking cool

>>712952602
are you an enemy of humans?

>>712950516 (OP)
saying ai will never be human is no different than saying trans women will never be women

>>712952670
sure

>>712950516 (OP)
Striking in an industry that's 90% remote work seems risky, why didn't companies just replace all of them with foreign non union va's?

How do these people afford to go on strike for an entire year?

>>712950662
God finally, I'm hyped for more starfield DLC, bethesda has kept me waiting for over a year now.

>The strike is over! we won!

>>712950662
That probably explains why Bethesda didn't announce anything for the showcase, the VA strike was holding it back this entire time

>>712952986
Maybe 60% human

>>712950516 (OP)
>AI will never be human
low key transphobia right there

The industry keeps insisting on fully voiced games with customizable main characters you can name, yet refuses to take the extra step of allowing characters to say your name—despite that being technically possible since the late '90s.
AI could easily handle that now. So why not use it?

>>712950662

>>712950805
They’re just saving face. The strikes ended when everyone started just firing them and giving their roles to non-union.

every industry is run by retarded HR spinsters who go on strike even though nobody notices and then say dumb shit like "ai will never be human"

>>712951276
This. Especially when everyone with a brain can see we're moving towards being able to interact with AI NPCs very soon, like that Darth Vader event in Fortnite. It's literally the only way it could happen.

I just think that it would require VAs signing off their voice for use in AI generation, like a licence or something.

As long as they get rid of that tranny voice actor from final fantasy 14 or whatever and replace it with some AI, everything should be OK. Maybe use tiktok text to speech as placeholder, I think it would increase the game's steam rating

Hooray, selfish nepotists have hoarded the industry to themselves and destroyed any chance of breaking from their entitled activist bullshit!!

>>712954939
they don't believe in replacement theory so it's okay :)

Sure am happy that I play games that never require voicing my by west coast nepocunts that ruin the project.

>>712951041
Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and put myself out there and say I liked starfield, so I wouldn't mind seeing more content. I'm not a Bethesda fan, I've only played skyrim and some of the oblivion remake (and 3 hours of fallout 3), so maybe all of the generated hate online didn't really effect me like others. I understand that some of the criticisms were about things that could've been better. I'm also not a big fast travel abuser in general, so the whole loading screen thing didn't bother me since I either didn't play it like other people or maybe mine loaded faster, I dunno. Anyway, I thought the Internet hate was mostly just manufactured for YouTuber content farming and people are retarded so they ate it up (not to mention Microsoft had just bought Bethesda, so Sony fanboys enjoyed coping through the negativity).

Anyway, yeah I liked it. It was easily an 8 or so game. Perfectly fine

>>712952602
this. my priority in videogames is fun. and vader was pretty fun and unique

Based Starfield enjoyer. People are are fans of Starfield, especially now, are actual fans considering the shit the game gets just by mentioning it most times. Also the shit fans of Starfield get too.

I still don't know what is it that they won.

>>712950516 (OP)
how long do you give it so that the majority of voices in games are AI?

i say something like 2 years

>>712955576
Based. I enjoyed the game and really love the setting and there arent enough games that do more in space where you can explore and walk around and deal with space people and I know the game is flawed but I love it anyways.

lmao

it's still fucking annoying and forced but damn

IIRC the video game strike was against 8 or 9 specific video game or related companies. Any VA that striked during this time while working for companies not listed were striking "illegally". If they were working for a non-union job they were scabbing. If they then striked against the non-union jobs that they were scabbing for then that made them really fucking retarded. The people who make million-dollar paychecks as part of the negotiating team essentially told everyone else to go fuck themselves and lose their jobs and homes while they dragged the negotiations on for several months despite getting almost everything they wanted but 2 or 3 non-critical provisions. The fact that they convinced (threatened) everyone that this was a fine situation is both humorous and despicable. I don't know where I was going with this but people with this level of honesty and intregrity were usually killed by their peers when they didn't kill themselves out of shame first.

I love my wife Sarah

>>712957520
and don't forget the previous strike ending in those millionaires making a deal with AI companies that clone voices lol

VAs are fucking idiots for putting up with this shit

>>712950631
Unironically the Trixie Mattel cover of Video Games btfo's the original.

>>712953718
>The strikes ended when everyone started just firing them and giving their roles to non-union.
No shit they'd do this. VAs have ZERO leverage.

>>712963320
You should've read what the union was demanding. It's one thing to have no leverage and it's entirely another to create a racketeering project built on nothing and expect companies to just follow it.

Yes, they gave up.

>>712963767
the issue is is that people won't take orders from a machine yet. managerial positions will stick around longer than the people they manage.

but for things like remote work? AI could manage a team and they may not even know it

>>712963919
>the issue is is that people won't take orders from a machine yet.
they won't have a choice, especially not after i make them wear the shock collars

>>712963846
Total union death (except police unions)

AI ironically enough has a better vocal range than most if not nearly all western VAs these days.

>>712964080
work that is dangerous and or requires a high amount of training and skill should unionize. everything else is a grift

>>712950516 (OP)
At least the studio this bitch is at has a good mic

>>712963919
That only ever was a thing for the much older generations and the older Gen X'ers. They had an odd complex about even taking orders from people younger than them. All generations after them are fine with it.

/v/ has a hate for West Coast/California voice actors. They're condescending, arrogant, entitled and unprofessional compared to VAs from anywhere else in the world that do it as a side gig. There are many that should be paid for what they're worth, but these fuckers think they're better than God and demand pay more than that of people that do work that actually keep this shit from falling apart. These are the kind of fuckers that refuse to follow instructions, even after going over them like I'm teaching a fucking retard and giving them a Barney-style instruction sheet to take home, and then get mad at me when they didn't follow instructions.

>>712964626

Holy JUSTICE thank FUCK

Reminder that they lose on every front. They couldn't strong arm China to American unions, they couldn't even strong arm westroon studios into that, their union workers got replaced, and the union sold to an AI company.

>>712965627
I love how easily you can tell FFXIV got American voice actors for Dawntrail rather than getting Bri'ish theater talent like in expansions since the original ARR. They said they were obsessed with "authenticity" but you can tell some people were faking their accents hard. The only thing that tied them all together was absolutely terrible line delivery

I don't understand how these actor "strikes" work, who the fuck are they striking against? Every person who could want to hire them? It's a freelance job...

>>712955576
I gave it 10 hours before I had a "what the fuck am I even doing?" moment.
which is actually the exact same feeling when I go back and play skyrim now.
I do wonder if I just don't like the formula anymore and for people that still like skyrim, starfield is probably fine.

>>712965386
why did they replace her?
I'm off the loop here

>>712965793
They want to make it illegal for any studio to hire a none union (their union specifically) VA. Yes, this includes European and Chinese studios. That means they want an American union to forbid Chinese devs in China from hiriing Chinese VAs, because they're not paying the jewish mafia union protection money. Everyone told them to fuck off and they gave up of course.

>>712965886
Constant social media meltdowns. I think she specifically told miHoyo to fuck themselves multiple times

I don't fucking understand. She had a steady role as a VA. That's a fucking golden goose. Almost no VAs get this but she just constantly lost her shit publicly to show what a good person she was

>>712966036
let me guess, she "disabled" her social media accounts after getting the boot?
she'll be back in a month tops

>>712966102
I haven't check into the drama since the strike ended and my social media is Discord with people I know in real life and...here so I'm a bit out of the loop

>>712966036
Because they wanted to bully the company into giving the rest of the roles to their union buddies. The American VA scene is a sekrit club of friends that only look out for themselves.

the only way it could be bad is you cant make grunts, moaning, and other complicated sounds, and it tends to sound monotone, so untill ai fixes that, VAs are still safe

I can't afford professional voice actors, but if someday I will be able to do so, I will make sure to not hire someone from a union. I also will make them sign an agreement with extreme legal penalty for voicing anything political related to anything regarding my game.

Such a mixed bag.

On the other hand most VAs are nigger-brained faggots that think it's really hard to act when all acting is is the simple art of lying and shouldn't really get paid more than $13/hr.

let me guess? non local, paid service?

>>712962537
1. VA has been the number one cause of the enshittification of vidya, due to raising development costs, dumbing down dialogue & choises in vidya, and encouraging the movie game bullshit
2. VA's (in the US) are mostly talentless hacks with 0 range (see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ci8dIpNcyEY ) who failed to make it in hollywood, they demand & get paid ridiculous amounts of money for talking into a fucking microphone in the bathrooms of their mc mansions & still complain that they are treated "poorly" and don't get paid enough. The unearned ego's and entitlement of these fucks is completely out of control, don't even get me started on the political & slacktivist grandstanding. No, just because some Japanese businessman hired you to do the english dub doesn't authorize you to prance around twitter & bluesky pretending to represent said company.
3. The US VA scene is literally a fucking gay, communist LA mafia. If you aren't the friend of someone in the club, good luck getting any work. If you somehow do manage to get your foot in the door, enjoy it while it lasts, because they WILL ruin your career and life unless you bend the knee.

customizable MC name and face is a pointless gimmick studios like Bethesda dwells on for no good reason
just have a male name, female name and 2-3 faces if you insist on customization, most people do not actually care

most games are better off with one pre-made main character with good voice acting rather than a mute blank slate
whether or not NPC could actually say your customized name via AI is stupid way to look at it

Wrong. That would be graphics.

Why is it everytime I check any video about voice acting the men do many different unique voices and the women just do their own base voice? Women's voice acting isn't real.

Thing is Genshin wasn't even part of this at any point.
Hoyo and Genshin were never on the list of companies or games that SAG-AFTRA were striking.
A bunch of virtue signalling retards, none of whom were members of the union, were striking (and are still striking) to try and force Genshin to be a union gig.
It's worth pointing out that if Genshin did become a union gig, Hoyo would have to fire the dumb retards striking anyway since they're non-union.

This is like Darwinian level of retarded.
Not only did they demonstrate the benefit of AI by refusing to work for months.
They've also now sealed the doom of these studios that are no longer contractually allowed to use AI while new uncontracted studios start popping up with progressively better and better AI.
It's like they weren't satisfied just obsoleting themselves, they're now obsoleting their employers too.

Why is SAG-AFTRA an actual protection racket scam? I'm not a big fan of unions here in Europe either but at least when they strike they strike at critical moments to do damage then go back to work after clearly announcing the strikes so they don't unintentionally kill people that need emergency services, but if all American unions are like this I understand why USbros despise them that much.

Voice actor rights are human rights.

>>712950516 (OP)
I didn’t even know there was a strike because why would I play a game with voice acting, let alone English dubbing?

>>712950516 (OP)
Weren't more jobs lost to all the British actors taking the role rather than AI?

>>712950631
Put me in the screncap.

>>712986203
Only literal monsters play NIKKE with english on, the voice acting is so bad (and the jap voice acting is phenomenal)

>>712965719
if they wanted authentic, shouldn't they have gone with Central/South American VA for Dawntrail?

>>712999494
No, chud. You'll have your North American tranny voicing a Central American female and like it. I often wonder if Wuk Lamat would have been more tolerable if they were voiced by an actual woman. It would certainly have been a better performance

>>712950516 (OP)
should have just replaced her. Nobody would miss her.

>>712952084
They did won but people like to focus on those that got, rightfully, fucked over by Mihoyo.

Try reading the thread next time

>>712966609
Twittannies (bots) who blindly hate imagegen don't know what they're missing out on. Suddenly your favourite character + scenario has more images than the 2 on a booru

>>713003676
Currently widely available imagegen is fucking garbage for porn

>>712950516 (OP)
Won what lmao

>>712985618
Ah, I see. I still don't get why such an unessential part of the workforce gets to have a union at all. What rights can a director even violate?
>>712985779
Fair enough I suppose.

RIP to all the pro-AI faggots who want people to lose their jobs because of their tranny boogymen.

>mihoyo fires ever single union VA
>union panics and takes worse deal out of fear of more retaliation from international companies
Based chinks

>>713001373
I have seen no evidence of any deal they won that protects them

>dubshitter nonsense
If you want continue eating shit then by all means.

This strike was about some shitty AAA games by slopware publishers in the USA. They got pretty much the contract they wanted. Only problem is that the co-strikes in solidarity against unrelated parties like mihoyo caused them to lose lots of work and tarnished the reputation of us voice actors outside the USA.
Guess they succeeded in something? Better voice acting in non US games.

I didn't read the thread but I thought voice acting in games was done by AI now because it sounds better and is easier to do.

Why would anyone care about a strike of literal whos? Does anyone even remember any voice acting outside of the cool ones in Fromsoft games?

>tarnished the reputation of us voice actors outside the USA.

>>713002837
They wanted blue collar workers to starve to death first, that's typically how the whole gay space communism fantasy goes

>>712950662
If Todd held up production for this dumb BITCH I'm gonna kick his scrawny ass

>>712963409
NTA but can you give me the gist? Or point to a PDF supplied by the Union outlining their demands?

>>712950787
It's taken a few days, and some of the usual suspects have been more quiet than expected, so I have to assume the deal wasn't everything they wanted it to be.

>>713006943
>Fromsoft games
they use theater actors that don't know shit about games I think

>>712950751
You're right. It'll be something more than human.

>>712952670

I don't understand why people care about voice actors at all.
Do they actually care though?

>>712950516 (OP)
Based AI voice acting is lazy and doesn't benefit me in any way. It was only beneficial to the publishers trying to save a buck.

>>712950787
Bongs won

Because it ultimately leads to stagnation. AI feeds off of proper work and can at best be almost as good as proper work. The less people you have doing actual voice acting work, the less material you have for AI to feed on.
So ultimately it's just valuing short term gain over long term sustainaibility.

>>713007728
Though of course Kayli Mills goes and harasses another actor.

>>712984180
Working as intended.

They had a PDF for the 2016 and 2022 strikes but this time, the agreements and provisions are so complicated I don't think they have a document. Just look at the annoucement:

Learn to enjoy things my man

Why does /v/ still pretend AI voices are amazing?
Forget good they're not even decent yet.

Oy vey the poor billion dollar corporations were blackmailed into making an agreement with their employees. It's like anudda shoah.

>>712950662
>I'm so excited
says no one ever

>>712998882
Correct, these people don't even know yet but they've been made obsolete because they thought they had a monopoly on English speaking voice acting.
It stems from some weird insulation mentality in the U.S. where the rest of the world doesn't exist.
Critical Role and groups like that in the U.S. are also ageing out of roles that they would usually be cast for so that also has a part in this.

The rise of Jennifer English and Ben Starr was in part because the roles made available to them over the past year due to American VAs being on strike.

I've no doubt we'll be hearing far more Brit VAs in games in future like Rich Keeble who played Monoco in Exp 33, maybe even Andy Serkis will do more VA work again after how popular that game was.

>>712950631
Lmoa

>>712950516 (OP)
so did she just "strike" whilst unemployed and stopped when she was offered another job?
lmao

>>712959084
it only affected a handful of companies, if you were already working on a game with them you could finish it, it was only american VAs

>>712984909
they won
