Celebrities in Video Games

Oh, that one actor died? It would be a shame if we had modeled an entire character after his likeness instead of just having him voice act an original character. Now we're going to have Lance Reddick's face with some rando's voice in Quantum Break 2!

But hey, that's the risk you take when inserting celebrities into video games as characters! What do you mean it destroys player immersion to look at real-world celebrities while playing narrative games? Look at how CINEMATIC games are these days, like HOLLYWOOD MOVIES! Wow!

Either way I can't wait for Keanupunk 2077 2, I hope Keanu Reeves doesn't die in the next 20 years it takes to develop it!

    Which game did this the worst?

    Quantum Break, Death Stranding, Cyberpunk 2077?

      From worst to least bad: Death Stranding > Cyberpunk 2077 > Quantum Break
      Death Stranding was really proud to flaunt scanned people in your face thanks to Kojima's obsession with being a movie director. A good chunk of Cyberpunk's marketing was centered around Keanu and he still is more or less the face of the game. Quantum Break also made a big deal about its TV show gimmick but the game as a whole wasn't advertised that much to begin with and was forgotten almost instantly after it came out.

      Just don't ask. No really, just stay silent. It's better that way. Asking questions is troublesome.

      I don't think anybody worships this guy. At most they see him and say oh he was in that other thing.
