I cannot think of a less class conscious demographic than "streamers". They have cattle minds.
That's their viewers, give half they're paycheck to millionaires for them to say "Jesus Christ, thanks for generosity" but they aren't generous, just lonely and desperate
>They have cattle minds.
Some of them make massive stacks of cash.
Don’t try to tell me you wouldn’t enjoy making well more than the median income simply for playing video games.
>western vtubers
Why are video game strikes always the gayest shit around
Maybe I live too close to the French, but what a sack of homosexualry
>implying streamer gays who will do anything for money will stop doing things for money
Seriously not a single one refused to CDPR money for paid fricking drops.
lol
I'll keep streaming what I want to stream anyway. I'm a vtuber, they won't hire me for anything anyway.
Ew, literal troony
what video game companies are striking again?
The strike is against:
>Activision Productions Inc.
>Blindlight LLC
>Disney Character Voices Inc.
>Electronic Arts Productions Inc.
>Epic Games, Inc.
>Formosa Interactive LLC
>Insomniac Games Inc.
>Take 2 Productions Inc.
>VoiceWorks Productions Inc.
>WB Games Inc.
Those are the employers of voice actors and motion capture actors. Some are directly a video game developer/publisher, some are hired by developers/publishers.
i wonder how all of this bullshit is going to affect mortal kombat 1 tournaments
On the ethics of, for example...
>Blindlight provides VAs for Valve games
>Blindlight is part of the strike
>Valve makes Steam
>... do we stop using Steam?
or
>Epic Games makes Unreal engine
>Epic Games is part of the strike
>... do we not play Unreal Engine games?
I'd say leave it alone, if you go too deep everything is connected to everything else. Just support the strike on the first level, don't overextend.
Epic should release a strike skin with a protester sign as a melee weapon for fortnite, then have a lobby with a big screen playing brainwashing videos and streams.
I play none of their games
Even Genshin? Anon, wtf?
I don't see Mihoyo on the list
Formosa is making eng voices for them.
Even the casualest normies stay away from Genshin's godawful ENG dub.
Fair.
>EN
How good are the other languages? I am assuming you understand another language and are able to judge their voice work fairly like you seem to for EN. I mean surely you wouldn't lay claim that other languages you do not understand at all are better than the language I assume you speak? You're not doing that are you? A LOT of people do this but surely you're not one of them, right Shirley?
.t seething & incompetent ENG voice actor
I don't need to know the intricacies of a combustion engine to make the difference between a shitbox and a decent car.
Same thing with voice acting.
ENG's is so utterly bad it detract more from the experience than swapping to properly acted babbling nonsense. That's how dogshit it is.
Not saying you have to like it, just saying that hopefully whatever language you do use you can understand it enough to call it better. I only see people shit talk EN VA but never another lang, you would think the others were absolutely perfect but I bet they aren't.
umad
No, I just hate weebs.
im a high level unironic weeb, i can read and understand nipspeak and nip runes
and i hate mihoisraelite eng dubs all of them
what now?
You're good to go my man, I respect those who speak the language they prefer, good shit.
I don't play western hemisphere games so this has 0 effect on me
all garbage, got it
voice acting has and always will be a cancer in the industry, it always takes resources and focus away from game development, when you can just fricking read.
it also limits choices, and changes in a story, more lines to record, more animation, etc
I don't suppose this is going to make Sony look favorably upon jap devs again
So none of the companies I give a frick about. noted. I'll continue enjoying Indies and AA games.
not my problem
Showing solidarity to those who never show it in return is dumb tbh. Let the parasites starve.
The idea that strike workers control what I do is kind of baffling.
If I agree with you, I already would know to do this.
If I don't, why the frick would I do this?
>no more face scanned holywood actors
>no more shitty VAs with no range
>a lot of AAA games will fail because they depended on that
Holy based, gaming industry is healing
Did not happen the previous time
If they strike long enougth, someone will hire Chris Avellone again
>video game writers go on a strike
>suddenly, story and quests in video games improve drastically
>not in any of those unions striking
>YOU HAVE TO DO WHAT THE UNION SAYS
How about no. This kind of shit is exactly what turns people against unions. Its between the union and the people that employ them. Trying to pull other people in and threatening them is not a good look
>threatening
Who? Where?
The two sides are the people selling a product, and the people making the product. The people who would be consuming the product aren't neutral. They are inherently part of the battle. By continuing to consume the product, they are funding the people selling the product, who can then withstand the attritional nature of a strike. By refusing the consume the product, they are helping starve out the sellers, who then have to get a deal with the makers to go back to selling.
Your post reads like saying elections are a battle between the republican and democrat party, and aren't about voters. Why do you keep talking to me, a voter, about elections? Bro...
>Who? Where?
Are you dense? Did you not read the picture in the original post? They're threatening influencers and streamers saying they better not play video games because it might affect their "future" opportunities. That's a threat, plain and simple
The absolute gall of these fricking people to tell individuals who aren't in nor affiliated with their parasitic union what they should or shouldn't do with their time and energy. This is ridiculous, all I ever hear from pro-union voices is about how important the power of collective bargaining is, but apparently it's not enough, they have to get outside pressure from the general public to interfere in workplace negotiations on their behalf. Frick off.
I can't wait for them to replaced by AI.
In any case the idea that any streamer would care is laughable
I dont believe in acting unions and will not honor their desires. you arent entitled to be rich and famous
this is dumber than modders giving a frick about voice actors when making/using ai mods, or harassing and threatening people for streaming/playing a harry potter game.
Workers can go frick themselves. I don't care for your conditions, you don't care about mine.
The only people who ever strike in the videogame industry are the ones who I actively wish left it. Videogames don't need writers or voice actors, in fact they're detrimental and actively hurt videogames
What are these purported consequences? Those in glass houses should not throw stones. Clearly these gays are not in charge, that's why they are striking. What are they gonna do? Slander me on Twitter? Cool, I don't even have Twitter and I don't care what some c**t says on Reddit. Seriously, what can these homosexual "guilds" possibly even do? Their veiled threats are fake and gay. They can't do shit. I hope the big corporations put a fricking bullet in all of their heads. ChatGPT could unironically do a better job than most of these fricking homos do anyway and let's be real, most of them use it as a tool in their "work" anyway. Give me a list of all of these games and movies and shows and shit on their verboten list and I'll cross that picket line so much it'll beat the gay out of them. What the FRICK is some loser from some fricking "guild" gonna do about it?
>Muh virtual picket line
lmao good luck homosexual
The strike ended earlier this week.
I think this is another one, because no one in vidya gave a frick.
They can strike if they want
If it means more literal whos throw together games than big frickoff studios spending 45000 bazillion dollars on "writers" then so be it, that's what I want anyway
Are "twitch influencers" part of the Union now, too? Lmao i knew the heavily shilled ones have a managing Hollywood talent agency but failed to know they're card carrying sag-afro members too.
the golem push what their masters want
>Are "twitch influencers" part of the Union now, too?
No. The answer to your question is "no", they are not.
Yet after asking the question, you assumed the answer, and proceeded to get emotional and make confident statements about something that's just not true.
80 IQ moment.
>Do not give that egirl $2.50 to show her feet.
Frick off, OP. I’ll pay for feet pics anytime I damn well please.
Please take your commie spam to a more relevant board, thank you.
>It WILL affect your future prospects
homie, no employer is going to dig through my Twitch VODs years down the line. Even then, why the frick would I ever want to work in Hollywood? If I was able to be a big enough streamer for this to be a problem to begin with, why would I ever sacrifice that indepence to be some two-bit moron in the city of broken dreams? Not that I'm SAG to begin with. What the frick?
>Amerimutt voice actors
And nothing of value was lost.
>least important part of production
>work the least
>in some cases the existence of your role is an active detriment to the game
>easily replaceable by local theater actors who do a better job 9/10 times
>go on strike because you think you're so important that you can bring the industry to a screeching halt
they just need something to feel important anon
All commies are like that
All actors, writers, VA etc etc deserve to rot in heck
Yeah I too am siding with EA, Activision, Epic, Disney, WB etc in this shitshow
Unironically yes. Leftie homosexuals get to learn that enemy of my enemy works both ways
>cutting of my dick to trigger da libs xD
Friendly reminder that lefties get the wall tee hee
That's something leftie would do tho
What "shit show" are you talking about?
