I watched every episode of this show and have no idea who she is. We’ve got to insist on actors reaching a certain level of fame before they have their diva insanity phase.
"Nekrasova has made controversial statements in the past. In a 2023 New Yorker story, she was quoted as saying, “Francis is not the real Pope, we all know it. … You’re not gonna get rid of the Freemasons. You’re not gonna get rid of the Jews. They infiltrated the Church a long time ago.”"

The worst was when I was in a room full of actors and Aliens was on and the tv had auto motion plus going during one of the incredible model shots, and one of the actors goes “man the effects in this are dog shit” and there was a murmur of agreement

As a direct result of voice actors being treated like a sideshow for decades, it became more important to book conventions than it did to book acting roles.
Voice actors are always insisting they are ACTORS first and foremost. Now acting has to share space with “sales person” and “influencer.”

This affects you - the audience - more than you think.
Because there are no residual payments on videogames, many actors rely on convention appearances as a replacement income.
Because cons = $, cons have begun expecting talent to make it through YOU (no appearance fee).
You’ve been tip-cultured.

Ask literally any voice actor if they get royalties from the video games they worked on.
They will tell you no. They might even laugh.
Now imagine any developer actively trying to use AI VO to save money wanting to offer something like that.

Dropping cosmetics prices and refunding players who already bought them is a fun distraction from all the negative talk about not using human voice actors for your NPCs
But it also follows that if you can afford to cut prices and do refunds, you could afford to pay human actors to voice your NPCs.

Arc Raiders Lowering Skin Prices & Issuing Refunds After Backlash
While Arc Raiders certainly isn’t alone in featuring paid cosmetics and, soon, battle passes, the game has come under fire from fans since launch for its pricey skins and concerns that some items in the upcoming premium battle passes will be “pay-to-win.” In a blog post outlining some pricing changes, however, developer Embark Studios is responding to player feedback and concern, lowering prices on existing cosmetics and clarifying what fans can expect when premium battle passes arrive.

And least importantly, I am fucking sick to death of Kevin Hart and Jamie Foxx and non famous Black actors (funny how it's always Black actors....) shilling these apps nonstop in ads in mobile games and on streaming platforms. It's every ad break, often more than one at a time.

Even on projects that don’t feature AI, it’s often difficult to justify how little voice actors get paid for work on projects that sell in the millions
So it’s fascinating to see folks say “they were compensated fairly” repeatedly on this occasion where we don’t even have the voice actors credited.
So it’s fascinating to see folks say “they were compensated fairly” repeatedly on this occasion where we don’t even have the voice actors credited.
The argument I'm hearing about it is "the voice actors got paid for it so it's all good"
We don't know how much they got paid, or if they get royalties every time those lines get used.
It's a slippery slope being brushed off because "game good"
if Arc Raiders had plagiarized art, would it matter?
