Re: UK Charts: Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Fall Out Of The Top Ten In A Week Of Stiff Competition

@Otoemetry Life is gross.

You cannot blame fans of a series of books and movies for liking a game.

Shakespeare should also be banned from all media, since he was a fricking racist man. If a games contains something inspired by Shakespeare like a reference to "To be or not to be" or whatever? Banned from sale.

75% of schools in USA should be banned because they teach Shakespeare.

@KBuckley27 It's like in movies.

Why go to a movies theater to pay a lot of money for watching those Disney rehashes?

Well, because you like the Disney movies, even if the rehashes are not very good. And also, there's people that may not have watched the original one.

It's the same with this.

You should also cover other languages' voice actors tweets.

This is Latin American Spanish, for one: https://twitter.com/GaboRamos/status/1604186706722230272

Also, there's @mikeleaal in Instagram (second voice actor in Latin American Spanish), but he only posted a story, which already disappeared as of this article:

Re: Bayonetta's OG Voice Actor Responds To Online Backlash In Ongoing Dispute

She just confirmed the Bloomberg report with that $15,000 mention.

She made it sound like $4,000 was the highest offer in the original videos when she called for boycotting the game.

The last $4,000 were some lines for a Cameo, not the lead VA anymore.

Yeah, just like Bloomberg reported. Nothing more to see here. She wasn't lowballed. She is in a union. She was offered more than the standard USD$250 hourly for Voice acting.

This is bonkers.

Re: Round Up: The Previews Are In For Pokémon Scarlet & Violet

@Dr_Luigi Zelda BOTW struggled on some in-game places, like in the Lost Woods.

However, it worked alright even with +15 enemies on screen. After +30 enemies in zones that weren't meant to, it started lagging.

I don't think it should be that hard for newer games (released +5 years after Zelda BOTW) to accomplish something similar. BOTW IS OPEN WORLD, even if you may say it's "empty", it loaded fairly well with not many hiccups. I don't see any reason from the trailers for Pokemon not to get a similar smoothness overall.

Yeah, yeah, not a GAME developer myself, but graphic-wise, Scarlet and Violet don't look as texture-detailed as BOTW.

GameFreak is ruining it all. Pokemon games also struggled on 3DS, even on 1vs1 battles! Meanwhile, more graphic intensive games had no framerate problems at all. RE: Revelations. Street Fighter IV, Monster Hunter 4.

Re: Bayonetta 3 Dev Responds To Voice Actor Dispute In Official Statement

@RickRau5 She already broke his NDA by talking the offerings publicly, she CAN be taken to court if Platinum wanted.

Releasing documents would actually help her regain a bit of trust, but instead preferred to say she wanted to "move on" after she started all the public issue in the first place.

She is scared to even make fake documents because that would be actual real problems once Platinum sues, otherwise, she'd have done that already.

Releasing the real documents that go along with what she said first would actually help her a lot.

@graviton None will tell anything else about this situation. Company is not vile enough to call out giving out the whole story by themselves. Taylor won't release contract of offering because she lied.

I mean, Taylor already broke NDA, what would be wrong about releasing their contract document with the info about what they offered her? If that could prove her as truthful, why not do it? Instead, she said she wanted to "move on" even when she started the whole public issue. She is lying.
