voice acting is great, but honestly to get take a position against AI voicing is really fucking dumb. You want to protect a tiny clique of unionized workers who mafia their way around the industry for what? Because you heard their voices before and its familiar?

Modders are the ones who will bring the AI voice overs to the mainstream, people are using them now, and soon enough they will come to expect full voice acted mods (quests and character interactions)
There are countless use cases for this that dont require me to rely on other peoples talents. A lot of you guys seem to think that people are required to rely on other people when pursuing projects they created.
For example, take one band musicians. Dudes who are so talented they go out of their way to play every instrument for their band, and tie it all together to create a song. Alot of these guys rely on synthesizers because its not feasible to master every instrument to fulfill your vision.

When it comes to games, yes if you have a studio and a treasure chest to pay out for a proper game release, you should try to get organic actors for your game because the presentation requires something polished. Voice AI will get to the level of the synthesizer soon enough and i encourage people to use AI voices for their projects as long as its not ripping off anyones real voice talent.

>Slaving away in minimum wage jobs and watching voice actors try to co-opt the profits of video games
I hate them. I hate them all. Fuck each and every voice actor. I would deal with the enshittification of all voice acting in any game if it meant that video game voice actors in particular suffered

It's not about getting good games for me anymore, that's not happening regardless. I want spite.

Deus Ex has always sucked except for Human Revolution. Children like you made it into some kind of mythical "oldfag" game.

Its very relevant. Most of the user base are contrarian freaks who need to hate anything that could embarrass them by association because they actually really really do care about their self image even though they claim they dont care what others think.
Besides, if the company in the OP just waited until the game was complete before calling in their voice actors, no one would be upset. Using AI voice to fill in the for the real actors would have kept things going without having to pull in resources for a section of development that they obviously were not sure they would get to.

If you don't want your games cancelled then stop getting involved with big publishers.

>Nu-/v/ is so /pol/brained that they hate Adam Jensen's voice actor now
When HR released everyone took the piss out of it for having voice acting as bad as the original game, dumbed down gameplay/leveldesign, and the piss-filter making the whole game look dumb as hell
What sort of dipshit contrarian revisionism is this?
HR is known for "SHIEETTT CAP'N JENSEN!" niggress and "I NEVVA ASKED FOR DIS" memes, and nothing else.

I'm assuming he got paid for his work already if he actually did any, otherwise that's a lawsuit waiting to happen

I have no respect for SAG-AFTRA cucks.
If he really cared about voice actors he'd focus on making a new union.
