I agree with the former, but before FOTM or GOTY game speak it was non-stop Debra-Wilson and screaming women collages being posted, plus the ongoing "EAST VS. WEST (YOU) WORSHIP UGLY" kvetching. I'm feeling fatigue all over, and when and if Palworld talk dies down it'll just go back to that.
I like Debra Wilson but I hate celebrity face cameos in my videogames. I didn't like it when Keanu Reeves had his face in Cyberpunk, either.
shes so fricking ugly. Why do they put her in everything?
Because she has extensive experience with motion captures, a strong resume, is said to be very agreeable and easy to work with, and gives decent performances. More than anything, she actually likes and wants to be in videogames and has a good agent for making that happen.
The only downside about her is that her face is a bit uncanny and the face scanning makes it even worse, while developers refuse to touch her up. Personally, I'd rather she just voice act over a hand-made face.
If anything celebrity faces and mocap is a bigger red flag, especially when it comes to gameplay. Because that already tells you as a consumer that the devs arae striving for realism, meaning procedural animations with stiff movement, no cool movement options outside of extending a stamina bar, and focusing on implementing movement and making gameplay animations 'seamless' with button presses. Think of GoW, TLoUS, Witcher, Star Field, Destiny, or anything Action oriented like that has more emphasis on story, number conveying strength for the player and other things that are just self-insistent on being fun when it's padding masked as gameplay.
Diablo 4 will not die, Blizzard will release a new expansion for 100 dollars in a spam of 2 years and hope that the blizzdrones pay it up (yes they will).
Most likely china, which is a huge chunk of Blizzards playerbase across most games.
Debra is a symptom of a long ongoing problem since Riddick, L.A. Noire and other games, but they were fine at the time and those games were one of few. Now it's a saturated technique made to sell to streamer (network tv) hogs that like seeing netflix person in the interactive movie.
No luck, doc. >check her Wiki >under; 'Web Series' >2017 My Sister Is So Gay Becca 6 episodes
But that's 1 out of maybe 4 examples, unless CoD and Diablo die. I know Diablo 4 will, but it's not a nog issue, it's a Diablo 3 but more issue which is a woman dev issue which is entirely different thing.

Shows up. Does her job. Knows what she's doing. Doesn't make crazy payment demands. You don't get THAT many gigs by just being a diversity hire. But she's literally also a primo diversity hire.
no
face scanning is the issue
hacks started scanning in faces instead of creating something
that's the mark of a franchise in decline
debrah is just the poster head of a bigger problem of laziness and creative bankruptcy

will be a turboflop
I know jedi survivor did well because its star wars and apparently the brand still sells, but its hard to play a satr wars game with such an underpowered jedi, i mean its not like he doesnt have any powers but after what we got on The Jedi Knight games and The Force Unleashed its kinda dull
If there is one thing Star Wars really needs to do it's reign in the force powers. They're ridiculous now. These people have gone from being gifted to literal gods.
it seems like a lot of anons don't understand why debra wilson keeps getting hired. it is not because she is a black woman - good amount of those in the industry - it is because she also does mocap. you have NO FRICKING IDEA how good "also i do mocap work" looks on a resume in the voice acting industry (for games). she's probably everyone's first pick because she might be one of the few, if not only, black voice actresses who can also do mocap. ask any voice actor/actress on twitter "hey, i can do mocap - is that good on my resume in the voice acting industry?" and they will say "hell yes it is"
The woman is not fricking mocapping the fight scenes or something. "I'll do the mocap too." is not rare. The reason she gets hired all the time is because the millennials currently infesting the industry love her acting style for some reason and she has connections from a long career.
>I assume facial rigging and acting is still an annoying process
It's a job, anon. You're paid to do it. Most actors will b***h and moan but do it because they get paid more when they do.
>Nobody really liked Jedi 2 though
it sold well and is rated highly despite the performance issues, it also got 2 tga nominations
dunno why you think nobody likes it
when anons say that "nobody liked" a game, what they mean is that Ganker either didn't talk about it, or seethed about it 24/7. ask Ganker what people thought of baldur's gate 3, you'll get some conflicting opinions despite the blatant facts
I know if she is in a game it's not worth playing. It's less about her and more about the people who hire her. You know whatever game or movie she is in is gonna be woke festival. Which means the game is going to be predictable and dull.
>Put The Wall in the game >Make her skinny
The one time a fat black woman bossing people around would have made perfect sense and they didn't do it because they HAD to have fricking Deborah Wilson in the game.
It's not even that she seems like she's in every game. It's that every game she's in ends up having her mug and it takes you right out because now it's like 'Oh, it's what's her name. Again. She's no longer in Star Wars, now she's in Batman.'
Like this anon points out, the character she's playing is obese. It's critical to her depiction just as it is to Doctor Octopus or Kingpin. But because devs are lazy and resort to face scanning, they can't or aren't allowed to make this real life people person actress visually fat, and so we end up with someone who doesn't even look like the character she's portraying.
Say what you want about the Joker or Harley Quinn but at least they're recognizable as being those characters.
I liked her on mad tv and her voicework is fine. But for frick sake take the time to actually make a fricking character model you lazy shitheads. Are they even bothering to rescan her any.ore or do they just pass around the same uncanny model. Its just pure laziness they'll pass off as some sort of "inclusion
I really liked Debra in madd tv when I was a kid. She was very funny is reno 911 as well, and is a fine voice actress. They just shoe horn her into EVERYTHING now for DEI purposes, but I'm not mad at her. If anything I feel kind of guilty for being annoyed at seeing her in games now. It's not her fault, and I'd be happy to see her if you didn't know you were in for some cringe lecture in every game she pops up. It's a shame.
If they didn't face scan her so much, people would have far less of a problem. For whatever reason devs feel the need to make her look not properly human.
I think she's a great actress. My only complaint is that they didn't make Waller fat like she's supposed to be. >b-b-but she's skinny now in 2023 comics!
I don't give a shit. Grew up with the JLU series I already have an image of her I can't change it.
Jedi Survivor got a sequel, so did Wolfenstien.
>dead as in I won't play it
yeah
maybe 5 people total on Ganker played it, nobody knows or cares about it and her being in it
I agree with the former, but before FOTM or GOTY game speak it was non-stop Debra-Wilson and screaming women collages being posted, plus the ongoing "EAST VS. WEST (YOU) WORSHIP UGLY" kvetching. I'm feeling fatigue all over, and when and if Palworld talk dies down it'll just go back to that.

*numbers
point is most of the games that go for high fidelity graphics usually ends up a bullet sponge fest if the scope is too big, usually.
sauce?
forspoken?
No luck, doc.

The game is literally already at d3 maintenance mode every person hates the new season.
For a live service game, d4 is blizzards biggest failure.
She was also in Wolfenstein Young Blood for 5 seconds
Jedi Survivor was pretty good imo.
The mark of blackrock
Debra is stealing voice and motion capture jobs from other black woman
this
shes ruining black women rights by making capital g Gamers hate her
shes so fricking ugly. Why do they put her in everything?
>Why do they put her in everything?
americans like her
also she got her breasts out on madtv
she's the only not mentally-ill diversity hire in the USA
Shows up. Does her job. Knows what she's doing. Doesn't make crazy payment demands. You don't get THAT many gigs by just being a diversity hire. But she's literally also a primo diversity hire.
She is professional, reliable, experienced in mocap and VA, and everyone gets on with her. These things are very valuable to companies.
>She is professional, reliable
lol no
she's a woman
And yet she has a career and you're on Ganker.
Normalization.
>Normalization
Of what? She's a real person.
People look like her in real life. It's as normal as you can get.
mark of death for my boner. that's a face made for voice acting

you are so short-sighted, anon. it's not even worth trying to explain to you why you're wrong, nor would you accept any explanation.
Anon, it's called building a portfolio and I assume facial rigging and acting is still an annoying process.
>I assume facial rigging and acting is still an annoying process
It's a job, anon. You're paid to do it. Most actors will b***h and moan but do it because they get paid more when they do.
any and most jobs have their dips.
It's a mark that the developers also like Mad TV back in the day.
Outside Jedi, yeah. Nobody really liked Jedi 2 though
>Nobody really liked Jedi 2 though
it sold well and is rated highly despite the performance issues, it also got 2 tga nominations
dunno why you think nobody likes it
>dunno why you think nobody likes it
Most of Ganker is completely disconnected from reality.

>Nobody really liked Jedi 2 though
It was much better than the first game.
Wtf it's girl Gus.
I know if she is in a game it's not worth playing. It's less about her and more about the people who hire her. You know whatever game or movie she is in is gonna be woke festival. Which means the game is going to be predictable and dull.

oh god damn it please don't let this be the new godawfully stupid buzzword i start seeing spread outside of Ganker

pretty much
Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor did very well
Rhombus UI?
but that's literally every video game ever
It's none of the games I play.
But then I play actual real games and not glorified interactive movies.
Such as?
I liked her on mad tv and her voicework is fine. But for frick sake take the time to actually make a fricking character model you lazy shitheads. Are they even bothering to rescan her any.ore or do they just pass around the same uncanny model. Its just pure laziness they'll pass off as some sort of "inclusion
why isn't she in comedies anymore
She was never the reason a game flopped. Check your facts.
I've never bought a game this ugly beast has appeared in. Fact.
I really liked Debra in madd tv when I was a kid. She was very funny is reno 911 as well, and is a fine voice actress. They just shoe horn her into EVERYTHING now for DEI purposes, but I'm not mad at her. If anything I feel kind of guilty for being annoyed at seeing her in games now. It's not her fault, and I'd be happy to see her if you didn't know you were in for some cringe lecture in every game she pops up. It's a shame.
I feel that dude
yeah entirely my feelings as well
Debra is hilarious and I like seeing her but holy shit she doesn't need to be the only black woman in video games
If they didn't face scan her so much, people would have far less of a problem. For whatever reason devs feel the need to make her look not properly human.
She was hot back in the day and has big, juicy, brown, mommy sloppers
Also she sounds white when she speaks
ngl, but all those memes of sheboons screaming and every other character being her made me not buy those games.
I think she's a great actress. My only complaint is that they didn't make Waller fat like she's supposed to be.
>b-b-but she's skinny now in 2023 comics!
I don't give a shit. Grew up with the JLU series I already have an image of her I can't change it.
