i think AC6 does a really good job of fleshing out its cast in an incredibly brief span of time and part of that is thanks to the immaculate voicework and direction

The Englishman who's accompanying them is our narrator, as well as primary antagonist of the story, voiced by Lenval Brown of Disco Elysium fame, whose voicework is stellar through out, but as we get to the game's finale is such a dramatic crescendo! An intoxicating narrator, for sure.

Might start doing voiceover commissions in the near future. And maybe also finally make a demo reel of my range and some impressions. I wanna do more voicework.

And if you want voices, do some shitty voicework with your buddies. The original Resident Evil has some of the worst voice acting in the industry and it's still beloved.

My hope with regards to voicework is that I get typecast as very tall/giant woman. It's happened at least once, that's a good start!

I think Willy Wonka broke him. Absolutely unnecessary makeup and ridiculous (derogatory) delivery in direct contrast to Gene Wilder's much-beloved controlled chaos. He had a few more hits in him (notably the same-problem Alice in Wonderland) but they were sequels and voicework

Not just jrpgs! I think a lot of projects see voicework as an inherent good, an automatic upgrade but i really really dont see it that way
Even mid or outright bad dub is a LOT of work that will slide of players brains like water off a duck's back -at best-

We push back against that where music, art, voicework, and design are concerned, because they’re highly visible from a player perspective. The results of coding are visible, but not the code itself, so it frequently gets overlooked where it really shouldn’t.

Okay, Adam has settled on his next stream playthrough: moderator AnythingSews's suggestion of Dishonored!
It won't be a fresh playthrough, as he's played it before, but a long time ago, and it's a great game that generally has voicework, so Adam can give his voice-acting a rest!
Starts Wed 6pm CT!

so far i don't mind the voicework or new writing for the ocarina of time remake
but is it just me or are the lines relating to the seven sages doing the "zonai" "secret stone" "demon king" repeated ad nauseam thing again.
like i've only gotten darunia and saria but the totk vibes are there.

Finally touching more of my to watch list and so watching In the Clear Moonlight Dusk and I'm 8 episodes in. Have adored their voicework in other things and continuously floored by Joshua Waters' va work in here. So so so so so good 1000%

So you're telling me that people who were arguing that certain uses of AI are okay so long as they don't steal people's work are more than happy to use an AI addon for WoW which scrapes VA voicework to generate quest text VO?
Sigh...

It's probably put on hold again, the way they phrased it sounds so vague BUT there already kinda hinting that there's some other post-humous voicework coming soon so it could be a while until we have his final performance

@matthewood.bsky.social 's voicework in this episode gave me CHILLS. Genuinely made this character much more menacing than what he already was.

Especially in the big AAA space where games are made by 2000 people and take 5 years. People will use everything they can to smooth the dev process.
Almost a guarantee that the next CoD or Witcher or GTA or Hitman will have been touched by AI in some way. Either coding or art or voicework

Grammer was a Big fave of mine cause of both Beast and the sheer amount of Voicework he’s done over the year.
I still can Enjoy Sideshow Bob and Stinky Pete(likely cause of their Comeuppances(MAAAANY in Bob’s Case)), and he’s just…Flawless in his Beast Performances…
But as a Person Screw him!

It took me a few cutscenes to get used to it, but I am also a fan of New Sheik™. I don't know what impact it would make on the story for a newcomer, but his design is more nuanced than before. Really good voicework, too.
i feel like i’m in the minority on this but just divorced from the storytelling side of things i think new sheik looks very cool

Dunno about you, but to me this reads as a whole bunch of excuses for bad planning and treating voicework as an afterthought.
Arc Raiders devs Embark insist that using genAI for voice lines was necessary, as "actors would just go crazy if they had to read all of that" https://bit.ly/3UASIrI

I'm guessing the voice actor most hated thing is something related to to being self-employed, or maybe auditioning. There's no way that it's even the most tedious parts of actual voicework.

Yeah fromsoft's voicework is one of those things where, they rarely have to have a voice match animations except for maybe 1-2 scenes, if that, so someone like Igon can just go ham because it has nothing to match besides the vibes of the setting. AC6 is also a great example as it has to rely fully
