>no alt bayo as lumen sage trap
God, imagine breeding Cerezo he ineffectually struggles against it, trying to pretend he's not enjoying it, even as his wiener drools all over himself, whimpering as you take his innocence and leave him as a vile, corrupted bawd that has to get fricked by Affinities to fuel his new addiction to wiener.
How do men play this trash ass series?
i like DMC and everytime i think of trying this game out, this troony clown dressed b***h turns me off
It was a more novel idea when Bayo 1 came out. I can't excuse anyone that played 2 or plans to play 3 though. Beyond pathetic.
why are dmchomosexuals so obsessed with transvestites?
This whole site, but especially Ganker, is obsessed with transexuals.
I don't know when it started but at some point a lot of morons on this site became obsessed with trannies to the point where Ganker exposes me to this garbage more than anywhere else
it's kinda depressing because it just makes the website feel so predictable
If you were here these past years you'd know why. One of the reasons is that gaming media itself became obsessed, both "journalists" and marketing teams, so of course the same would happen here.
I've been here for 15 years and i don't know why.
Then you just don't follow gaming media. For the last several years trans representation became a hot topic all over, from youtube channels, twitter chatrooms and gaming blogs, IGN, etc. The subject started getting constantly covered, "more trans representation in games and media" became a part of the "trans rights" movement. Gaming companies took part and it pretty much became a common subject in gaming circles and media, alongside all sorts of lgbt+ matter. Seeing chatrooms flooded with flags is common in gaming streaming services, certain gaming events started proping up trans people, etc. It's really not a mistery.
just ignore it homosexual
I'm not complaining homosexual, I'm explaining why Ganker adopted the subject and troony became a buzzword like many others. If you don't care about the context of messages then don't reply.
Yeah, well, it's indeed not as prevalent here fellow unfortunate br, but in anglo media? Remember when gays were adopted as pets for some people and the gay male friend of the female protagonist became a trope/cliché? It's trans people's turn now.
You can't. It's fricking shoved in your face. Now go ahead and act like it's not.
Well, Ganker is the only place i browse where trans people are mentioned. And im brazilian which according to memes, there should be one in every corner. But in fact, it's not a big topic on media here. It's only covered when someone beat the shit out of some trans prostitute or some soccer player is caught with one.
>And im brazilian
OH NO NO NO NO
lefties took over gaming and started putting homosexualry and diversity in every game. Gamers that fight back against this get gaslight as being obsessed. We just want you homosexuals to hurry up and die off asscancer, so we can game in peace. Like we used to.
Obsessed
why do you troons want to pretend you are gamers? Get out of our hobby, homosexual weirdo
discord raids for weeks to spam that bridget is a girl or a troon or something. Then pretending that we are the ones obsessed. You only use gaming to push your homosexualry. You are not gamers and don't belong. If you all were dead, nobody would miss or talk about you guys.
It helps not being an insecure homosexual.
Nobody is more insecure than a homosexual. Your whole persona is based on ingesting hormones. You don't exist without drugs.
The gameplay is fun, the soundtrack is nice, the art direction is phenomenal, and the characters are interesting and/or sexy.
It's not that complicated. I personally like it more than DMC.
>muh troonys
you're so insecure
>How do men play this trash ass series
By being straight for starters.
?
who is that and why should I care
>straight
>playing as a feminist
yeah sure buddy
1. Gameplay matters more than aesthetics and Bayo 1 has great combat (2 is pretty good too) so it shouldn't matter who the MC is.
2. If you can't at LEAST find Bayo's look in 2 attractive I have to say your taste in women is shit.
The gameplay is fun and the story starts out cringe-inducing until you realize it's supposed to be silly and campy and it grows on you.
Bayo is better, and Kamiya's vision perfected. DMC is good but vastly overrated.
Nice bait
1 has enough uniqueness in the combat to make it worth playing. 2 is watered down trash
The final stages of shitposting: Presupposing something is true ("impossible to talk about Bayonetta"), then samegayging in multiple threads:
Last step: Review bombing
Can you post any image, any image at all that doesn't remind you of a troony anon? I'm curious.
Bayonetta is canonically trans. Just cope with it chud.
troony has lost all meaning.
Are we going to see TRANSformer raids for how many more weeks because of this femcel getting the boot and not getting money? Are you fricking kidding me.
We don't. It's a game for homosexuals and troons.
>think of
So you didn't even try it? And how does a sexy women turn you off? You must be a homosexual right?
It will take a bit for everybody to catch up to what was really going on.
>Bayonetta isn't the only character as there are 3 playable characters this time. She got less money because she isn't the only focus in the game so she doesn't have as much work to get paid for
>She is being paid well over 100-200 bucks an hour for 20-40 hours of VA work. She is getting paid for 4K for a few days work at most a week.
>Platinum isn't a AAA studio that can bankroll a VA with big money, they are just going by guild standards
Finally, while I think Kamiya's blocking habit came to bite him on this one, running up to him and posting at him was moronic.
In case your moron ass didnt notice there are like 7 bayonettas in this game
Highest level western players are a woman and a gay. Go figure.
Autists who enjoy trannies are an emerging market base
It genuinely sucks that I’m not going to be allowed to even say that I enjoyed Bayonetta 3 because of this stupid shit. Kamiya literally got cancelled for simply saying that Hellena’s statement wasn’t true. He probably couldn’t talk about it further than that because of the ndas anyway.
Black person what? Stop being insecure, you won't be the only one that's going to enjoy the game and wants to talk about. Once this whole debacle has calmed down and the VA btfo'd, things will be back to "normal".
I've never seen so many people talk about the series. This is such an incredibly awful situation.
Kamiya lost his twitter account, everybody and their mom hates Platinum now, Bayonetta 3 is getting boycotted left and right -- JUST OH, WHAT A DAY
Who was in the wrong?
/v/.
Only twatter clown
He didn't lose his account. It saying it doesn't exist means he deactivated it on his own and he can reactivate whenever he wants. If it said the account got suspended then that means twitter deleted it.
He probably got a phone call from Nintendo to shut his fricking mouth.
>"FRICKING TWITTER INSECTS RESPOND TO ME IN JAPANESE DO NOT BELIEVE UNTRUTHS I WARNED YOU FOLLOW MY RULES"
>*ring ring*
>"Moshi moshi this is Kamiya Hideki-sama of Platinu-"
>"Shut up insect. I represent Nintendo. The "Board" wants you to follow the rules. Keep your mouth shut. You have been warned. *Click*"
And then Kamiya deactivated his Twitter.
>Bayonetta 3 is getting boycotted left and right
Seems like that's failing. It's also 7th place on GameStop (though 3 spots are Pokemon SV and 2 are Mario + Rabbids) and 4th place on Best Buy.
>had a public mental breakdown and lost his twitter account
lmao that was no one's fault but his own
>had a public mental breakdown
Why are you people (you know who I'm referring to) like this? can't talk about anything without making the assumption that the person on the other side is pulling hairs, shaking, going bald in real time, calling their therapist or whatever.
To be fair, Kamiya is a complete lunatic on twitter. He's a total addict with it.
>Kamiya is a complete lunatic on twitter
Where do you people get this from?
The dude basically just talks about games he's playing and calls people insects.
Trannies have been throwing all kinds of accusations out recently, he's basically a xenophobe on par with the Dragon Quest composer now. Tomorrow he'll be Tojo.
>and calls people insects.
normal behavior here
I don't have a collage of his tweets but he not only posts a lot but he gets this weird kick on the ability to ban people. You have to read it to see for yourself. And he's doing it for a decade.
BEWARE THE RULES YOU INSECT
Yeah?
Where's the breakdown exactly? That's how he always is.
The only person who has a breakdown was Hellena in all honesty.
I didn't say he had a breakdown. I said he's a lunatic on twitter. And he is.
>manlet
>calls others insects
Huh????
>>had a public mental breakdown
No? He was basically ignoring the whole situation and blocking people who speak in English to him as usual.
>ignoring the whole situation
blatantly untrue, all you had to do was translate his tweets
I did. Did you? Because it was far from a mental breakdown
>It genuinely sucks that I’m not going to be allowed to even say that I enjoyed Bayonetta 3 because of this stupid shit.
Why? Who are you taking to who would even know about this irrelevant Twitter drama and why would you care about their opinion of you? It doesn't matter, this is like when Blizzard censored some guy who made a pro Taiwan statement during a tournament and people flipped out, but are any of those journalists not covering Overwatch 2? Of course not no one actually cares. The only problem is that then Bayonetta 3 inevitably sells mediocre they'll think they actually accomplished something with their little boycott.
Give it a few weeks, things will go back to normal once the waters calm down. Twitternigs will forget about it once the next drama comes up
Bayo 3 doesn't even look good, so I'm glad it's getting negative press.
I prefer to play even Action Taimanin instead.
If Taimanin title develop by Konami, PlatinumGames or Nintendo EDP
Frick, an Asagi game in the style of Ninja Gaiden would make me cum buckets just from the combat.
So literally NG with the girls model swapped?
Essentially. Make a NG with Taimanin girls with the unlockable costumes being bawdtier as you complete the harder difficulties.
NG but with taimanin and instead of tairon you go to under eden
Wouldn't be surprised if this results in Platinum closing their doors. At the very least Kamiya will never make games again.
I hope Platinum doesn't go bankrupt. I'll drop gaming altogether if that happens.
Get ready
The game just surpassed the new Mario+Rabbids in pre-orders lol
Wish it would, Platinum needed to die years ago.
Imagine if Capcom buys them.
How do Sony, Nintendo, Sega and Tencent react?
They don't? Platinum doesn't really own anything of worth.
They work on commission and don't own anything they work on.
Buys what? Platinum doesn’t own any IP outside of 101. Hardly worth salvaging. Let em go bankrupt and buy the one IP for pennies. If you want the talent, also wait and pay them at reduced wages when they are desperate instead of the elevated poached salary. There is no benefit in buying P*.
An excellent example of why you don't work with Westerners or bother with voice acting. It's unnecessary bloat and most people turn it to Jap voices if the option is there anyway. Look where it got you. Japan held out longer than most but they have fallen like the rest.
Its over.
>B-But
Its over.
Over for whom is the question.
>legit voice actors
>literally has only voiced Bayonetta
This is the kind of guy that trusts a surgeon that does balloon breasts and silicon lips because they've done hundreds of jobs.
>THEY ONLY OFFERED HER 4 THOUSAND DOLLARS
What's his name again?
Imagine getting paid $4000 for 16 hours of work. This is somehow an unjust crime. From the same people who cry about game dev crunch, wealth imbalance, etc. People are acting like VA’s are homeless when they’re rocking studios in their homes.
>Imagine getting paid $4000 for 16 hours of work
I barely got 600 for a month last year.
Fricking covid ruined the cushy job I had in 2019
Oh no 4k for around 20 hours of work. That poor thing. All of you guys who make 15 bucks an hour feel sorry for her!
>yongyea
i hate that homosexual cuck so goddamn much
He is kojima's b***h
why did he kill israelite wario
Imagine if this whole drama actually makes the game sell more
Probably, gamers are moronic and easily manipulated. Look at Ion Fury, no one cared until Ogay. Then it became a record breaking boomer shooter… that no one actually booted.
Bayonetta struggling to blast out a huge fart
So fricking deserved. Thats what you get when your core fanbase is full of subhuman sjw filth.
Is it weird that I want to see hentai of FemShep domming Bayonetta, considering VAs?
>so coomerbrained that he sees every piece of news as porn
>horrible week to be a Bayonetta fan.
Damn, all 6 of you must be upset about this, huh.
You think you have it bad?
Bridgette was always the character for absolute homosexuals. Literally nothing has changed.
This is prime shitposting material though. Feels good to have no opinion and shitpost
This won't even touch the sales, nobody actually gives a shit
This shit will blow over in a few days after the next controversial thing happens. Kamiya is a moron for having such a large reaction on twitter, someone should manage his shit
Was this necessary?
he did it to himself
Poor bald, fat Kamiya. The "Twitter Master" himself, GONE. FLED. Where is your block button Mr. Master? You dumb FRICK.
Right there.
He just used the bigger blocked everyone button until the troons find a new set of keys to jangle in front of themselves.
>in the end, there was one last insect to block: himself
The hack is back on Twitter lmao
>check
>it's true
say it with me:
terminally online
this is such a bad idea before they have made a press statement about everything
I hope all studios cut ties with him
He's a twitter addict. I knew he couldn't keep away for long.
Can’t keep a good JAV star down
lol, why did he even do that? Silly nip Twitter man.
Anon, people are going to forget about this and be "upset / triggered / mad" about the next thing in less than three days.
This becomes truer and the timeline becomes shorter every time. Twitter was a frickin mistake, we are way too plugged into to every little thing except for important shit like the United States sabotaging the anord Stream pipeline.
Don't worry anon, you'll be able to discuss it in 12 days when the game drops and the Twitter trannies have dropped their crusade over a literal who VA. Bound to happen when they discover more about her.
The original Bayo had around 200 lines of dialogue. You could probably record that in a few days. It honestly sounds like they offered her the standard union rate and she got butt blasted about it, so they told her to frick off. Ironically, they probably ended up paying Hale more. But she’s also a way more seasoned VA. Lol at the people saying they’re going to boycott this game though. We all know it’s Twitter performative Shit. And pirating the game isn’t a boycott either. This broad specifically said boycott the game and donate to charity and I’m sure all the Twitter gays are going to do just that right.
>also a way more seasoned VA
And yet the new voice is shit. At least the game is in japanese too.
I was flabbergasted the second she said to give the money we paid for the game over to charity. Why would anyone do that?
Because she’s victimizing herself and trying to save face. Donate to charity is the standard shit people say when they’re trying to deflect.
Remember when the smash tourney went down and that one homosexual exploited charity to hold a new one?
is donating money to charity really such a foreign concept to you?
Not to me, but it's the most commonly used tactic for when someone want's to look good online. Asking to donate to charity is an constantly abused "be on my side" manipulation tactic, and people participating in online drama will use it for that reason alone. If you don't see it it's because you're one of those people and it's just deflecting an old trick.
but im going to boycott the game and it has nothing to do with any of this. i just wont buy it because i dont like it
now im gonna make a 2 hour youtube video, smash that like button "I won't buy Bayonetta 3" and i will see you in the next one
She was offered that amount to voice SEVEN characters, not just the original bayo
why?
I saw a gorillion bayo threads but I only played the first game and didn't even finish it, what's the issue?
something about 4k dollars paid to the voice actor or something?
not trolling pls respond
Read and watch
TLDR
>Hellena Taylor offered above union rates for less work time
>she acted like a diva and refused it
>goes on a 4 part rant on twitter saying how she made Bayo what it is and that Hale can't replace her part 4 is also an unrelated Bible reading
>Kamiya says she's lying
>account goes down and no one knows why but he was fiddling with it before so it might be related
>twitter trannies are now licking Hellena's boots
and this is why kamiya deleted his shitter account?
also AI voices when
No one knows why his account went down. Like I said he was fiddling with settings so it was either him or a mass report from people who were butthurt about the situation.
The fricked up part about it though is that Hellena namedropped Kamiya in her rant as someone she talked to but he isn't even working on 3 so people just jumped on his ass for literally no reason.
social media was a mistake
No, social media is fine especially for keeping in touch and keeping up to date with hobby related releases.
The problem is the people using it and the fact that they bootlick for sympathy points as you can see here by Hellena's legion of morons.
Kamiya is a hack who failed upward and has been deservedly run out.
Can someone give me a QRD? I know the actress b***hed on Twitter and Kamiya deleted his for some reason, what's going on?
Why? Just because you lost a garbage EN VA doesn't change Bayonetta's character at all. Just think of it as her using her witch magic to change her voice because she was bored of it or something.
That's not what he's talking about. No matter how this turns out Bayo will never be separated from the controversy.
Because Hellena essentially fricked the series. She definitely knew what she was doing. She chose to release the videos exactly two weeks before the game's release.
I honestly think she wants to kill the series just because they kicked her out. She couldn't care less about the series itself. She wants the Bayonetta role because that's her only popular role.
She's a huge b***h.
>suddenly everyone on twitter is an expert on voice actor wages
lol
It'll all be forgotten in a week.
In two weeks Gebshin will be reading their nee e-girl character. Twitter will forget all about this to b***h about why the e-girl isn't trans and brown
Who?
Kusanali. Google her, she's some bare foot elf e-girl or something. I'm vaguely aware that Twitter was already seething she isn't brown so this will just trigger them again
They will seethe but they already know the hoyo is not a pushover like Platinum
What's Gebshin? Is that a knockoff of hit game Jenshin Impeck?
I was looking forward to 3 but the VA being replaced was always disappointing to me
It will be fine
Same. Thanks Helena for sabotaging 3 and poisoning the well of the first two games because of your inflated ego.
Did Kamiya delete his account? I heard he was using a bot to mass ban people and he got auto deleted by twitter for using a fricking bot
Deactivated but not deleted.
Kamiya would still be on twitter if he just blocked all the pronoun and #BLM profile homosexuals in advanced.
If you think $4k is a lot of money to voice the protag of a $450 million franchise with its own OVA, finding out how much "content creators" on youtube and "startup founders" in the bay area make is going to make you shit blood lol
You are completely moronic if you think Bayo has made that much money as a franchise. The second game almost didn’t get made at all. Stop drinking the koolaid.
it might be gross profit and not net
bayo 1 sold over a million copies in its first year at $60 so there's $60 million already, factor in that bayo 2 was essentially re-released on switch and appearing in smash and all the other merchendise and it's not hard to see how it could have hit that figure by now
>i'm not allowed to enjoy this cuz people told me
lol, lmao even
I'll enjoy what I want if I want to, simple as
Based. Ganker is insanely pathetic.
>I HAVE TO enjoy it because twitter told me not to
double pathetic
Did I say that? I said I'd enjoy it if I want to. If the game's trash it's trash, simple as
Couldn't imagine being influenced by people's opinions like this
>Couldn't imagine being influenced by people's opinions like this
Your favorite game list is the same as all the homosexual ecelebs you watch. I bet you think Deus Ex is some underrated masterpiece.
i frickin hate deus ex, kys
Can you read, or does your baby brain only register ways in which you can get offended? Take a second look at this, you mouthbreathing troglodyke:
>I'll enjoy what I want if I want to, simple as
Don't care, still buying it. And will then emulate on Steamdeck. Luv me Bayonetta, ate women. Simple as.
Bayonetta's franchise may be over, but at least she has a worthy successor.
Some salaried charcter model designer ripped the Dante model from DmC game, changed the hair, and he then went on vacation for the rest of the month. Work smart, not hard.
So did this news make you more or less interested in buying the game? I honestly don't care either way, but I've seen people say they'll buy it to own SJWs and I don't really understand the logic there. It literally doesn't affect them?
I own 2 and still haven't played it, I don't really care about the franchise either way honestly. I played 1 when it frickin originally released, barely even remember it.
The funniest thing is Taylor isn’t SJW. She literally quoted the bible at Kamiya and has been an overseas President Trump Dick rider. She is basically the british, female Vic Mignogna.
The mob will turn on her as well in a few days time, it will be good for a laugh.
Wait I'm surprised twitter is on the side of a trump supporter. Didn't twitter turn against the FNAF guy because he supports republicans or something? Twitter feels like the sort of place that will try to cancel a charity because one of the organisers is republican or something
None of that is true she quoted the quran and the trump accusation is fake news photoshop
>quoted the bible
>wants to voice a witch who uses demonic powers to kill angels
????
lack of self awareness and introspection is very common amongst the religious karens
Same thing with Vic. Voice a young atheist boy who uses magic and preaches self reliance, IRL Jesus saves possibly closeted homosexual.
I feel like bayonetta is a much more extreme example. isn't the whole premise extremely blasphemous?
I'm surprised a religious christian would even be comfortable playing the game, let alone voicing the protagonist
She's either only religious when it suits her, like the majority of "religious people" (likely) or she doesn't even know the story of these games besides her voice lines (also likely, voice actors not giving a frick or not knowing is very common since it's common practice for them to go into a boot with their lines without the broader context).
Or she could just say she isn’t attacking Jesus in this game so she is just a demon attacking other demons. People will convince themselves of anything.
Nah, you can't even do that, you're activelly fighting against Heaven and angels, and they work very differently. So she can't be a "deeply religious" person, or she wouldn't be able to ignore it. Those people don't think "as long as it's fiction, it's OK". She doesn't seem to really care, like most people who go to church out of habit.
Sounds like a reasonable person who takes wisdom from the bible but isn't a religious nutjob.
wait, doesn't that mean we should be supporting her instead of a sjw like Jennifer Hale?
Hale is not even in the picture shes wisely shutting the frick up as is her union.
she's still getting paid dumbass
So what? Read you dumb Black person.
Yes, but nu-Ganker are SJW troony freaks.
I don't care either way, honestly. Hellena is nice and all, but Grey DeLisle and Yuri Lowenthal are still there. They're far more skilled than Hellena.
If anything I dislike the gameplay. It looks really gimmicky, but I suppose we'll see.
>It looks really gimmicky
Isn't it supposed to be to begin with?
Bayonetta 1 has a shit ton of depth too it. 2 scooped a lot of it out.
I still haven't played 2 yet so I won't pick up 3 anytime soon but I don't see why this matters. I could understand if it was the entire voice cast complaining about bad pay, but it's literally one chick complaining about being paid $4k for like two or three days of work. Just makes her look like an entitled b***h. Besides if she wants money to voice Bayonetta, then just go on Cameo and I'm sure people would give her money for it.
the game is literally going to leak this week and it's going to be fantastic
it's a great time to be a bayonetta fan
Maybe if the mods actually did their job and banned these obvious Doom posting Twitter Trannies off the board, maybe we can discuss some fricking video games
I mean when's enough is enough?
Surely this incident will kill off dubs right?
It won't kill them but voice acting will be harder to break into because Hellena is such a narcissistic b***h.
The funny thing about boycotting this game because of one VA, who only has this series to her name as a credit, is that it implies the other VAs don’t matter at all. Including the ones from oversees.
I’d be less annoyed by this shit if people were at least coherent about their reasons to get political.
Hellena trashed another woman VA. Aren’t we supposed to be supporting women?
According to the SAG rate sheet VA’s make 900 a day for 4 hours of work. If that’s what she was offered then it looks like they wanted to book her for four days. I definitely don’t make 250 an hour. Aren’t we supposed to hate the rich? Are we advocating that she get paid more for barely any work?
Shit is so incoherent. A disgruntled VA that willingly walked from a project (not harassed or bullied) is the straw that broke everyone’s back, but god forbid we boycott the other games where the devs are getting crunched to death.
god damn that's a lot of strawmen son
Her voice is attached to a series and is worth more than 4k ina multimillion dollar project. She has more to risk, it will permanently be heard across the world and has more potential impact on her future than almost any other job prospect in her future (save the director). There are lots of implications here and 4k is not much for sucha massive role.
Smash Bros Ultimate sold 3 times more than the entire Bayonetta franchise has in sales. It's not a "massive" role by any means, specially when she has been considered a dub VA by Platinum ever since Bayonetta 2.
It has no impact on future income you moron she hasn't done shit in 8 years.
She never even tried to be a voice actor. She got one lucky break and didn't do anything with it
>b-but japan doesn't care!!!

They're basically treating it like we are because they have common sense.
>let me cherrypick the one reply that agrees with me and pretend that all japanese people say the same!
Go cherry-pick all the replies that agree with you then, homosexual
You think that's the only one? The only thing I'm really cherrypicking here is the quality of the translation because Google translate sucks balls.
>8 likes
lol
You shouldn't be going by likes, you should be going on what people are saying.
>you shouldn't be going by how widespread the sentiment is, you should accept the sentiment is widespread because i am spiritually japanese after watching attack on titan
people on this board think japs are all a hivemind of infinitely wise persons. Finding one Japanese person on social media who agrees with them will suffice
>implying your cherry picked twitter troony: eastern Black person edition means anything
why are people saying this is cherry picked when half of the replies are saying something similar
Well I know Moon and am just going through some replies on Nitter.
Some agree that the price is low, but they don't know the true details or the word count involved.
One says that not taking the job if you don't accept the rate should have been the end of it, and telling to boycott is childish (Like 5+ so far)
One guy laughing at how this auntie thinks Bayo is her own character
Actually, most of them are saying calling for a boycott is ridiculous.
Don't set him off again anon, someone already pointed out that and he shat his pants about "cherry picking" and not having enough likes.
Bayonetta has basically been undiscussable on Ganker ever since 2 was shown to be a wii u exclusive anyways. Even outside of that there's the XV-kun tier autist who goes out of his way to shit up Bayo/DMC threads.
OP's pic of bayonetta looks cute. Is that what she looked like in the first game?
Yup. She's a bit cuter in the 2nd game, though.
Hmm, I always thought Bayonetta looked a bit off, but now I realise her subtle beauty.
>I'll never be able to talk about Bayonetta again
Yea, it's pretty much over.

It's real. Enjoy the platinum statement that gets dropped in a couple of days.
The entire narrative is about to flip and the damage that she has done to the western voice actors union is going to be so severe it will take years to restore publisher and public confidence.
>It's real.
then you should have no problem providing a link to the tweet
He disabled his account almost immediately after the tweet and deleted it. :Lawyers and PR are likely preparing a statement and dropping numbers and details that she can prepare a response to does not help them make it.
I've got good news for you then, his account is back up. Now go find the tweet.
Again, he deleted it moron.
Platinum does not want him giving out details before their statement.
>there was totally proof but it's all gone now!
lol, how convenient
stupid clunky fox needs rape correction***
It would be funny to see the union drop her for breaking union rules.
Hellena already called out Hale who is a major face of the union, so they are distancing themselves.
How stupid can someone be to pull this stunt without an organization or a lawyer?
There is no voice actor union. The closest thing is SAG-AFTRA which hasn't caught up to the times, and why voice actors get stuck with shit contracts for games.
SAG-AFTRA's contract with publishers literally got reworked in 2017 to improve conditions and pay industry wide.
Shut the frick up.

>I don't know how much of this is true, but it doesn't matter how good you are, you can't just drop out of a film because you weren't satisfied with the amount, break a confidentiality agreement, and call for a boycott of a film you've been a part of.
>It just means that he did not accept the offer because he was not satisfied with the amount of money.
And would you look at that 103 likes more than the "most liked" one you posted here
You can go now Hellena bootlicker.
Well, that shut him up.
wtf do you think "bootlicker" means lmao
Are you telling me that you don't know what the word bootlicker means?
>spending all day defending a corporation for free, then call someone else a bootliker for criticizing that corporation
>defending a corporation
>implying I'm not just shitting on an autistic woman who thought she was worth more than her coworkers
I couldn't care less about Platinum beyond them making games I like and you should take that stance too but thw fact of the matter is that you're bending over backwards to defend Taylor despite the fact that she's in the wrong here.
And for the record bootlicking is and subservient action, it doesn't matter who's on the end of the boot.
Ugh, figures I'd typo after switching to phone. Whatever, I did this so I could play AC7
>spending all day defending a corporation for free
Woah, woah, woah now.
Who the frick told you platinum was a corporation?
Theres not a single corpo involved in this.
>refuse Job for whatever reason
>Someone else takes job
>YOU'RE A BOOT LICKER!!
>you can't just drop out of a film because you weren't satisfied with the amount
lol yes you can
Read the rest buddy. He's saying you can't just drop out AND call a boycott.
Why not?
Because it would be bad for corporations
>platinum
>corporation
moron alert. The problem is that riling people up like this just ruins any potential for discussion especially for niche games like this so.
Not to mention its just a horribly petty and vindictive act and like this guy said
>a company or group of people authorized to act as a single entity (legally a person) and recognized as such in law.
>PlatinumGames Inc. is a Japanese video game developer that was founded in October 2007 as result of a merger between two companies, Seeds Inc. and Odd Inc.
Low marks as usual anon, allow me to get you a better, non-Google definition.
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/corporation
>a large company or group of companies that is controlled together as a single organization
For example, Sony is a corporation. Its made up of multiple companies.
Platinum is just Platinum
If a company has to be large to qualify as a corporation then Platinum is not a corporation. My initial statement is still valid.
Jesus, is that why people think that any group is a corporation? You have to be exceptionally large, Platinum is just a group of small time mooks.
Who the frick considers them a corporation?
>literally arguing about semantics
bruh this whole discussion is so fricking stupid
Hardly semantics.
You're not going to call a dev team of three people a corporation are you?
Bootlickers apparently.
Look I think Hellena Taylor is a israelite, and I also think blind hatred towards corporate entities is moronic because it's literally just a way of organizing a business, but Platinum Games is a corporation. Corporations, like limited liability companies, sole proprietorships, partnerships and so on are all just different ways of creating a business and offer different forms of legal protection as well as different ways of organizing the business.
t. banker
>but Platinum Games is a corporation.
Dude, they're a group of 300 or so.
To put that in perspective Nintendo has 6000 or so and they aren't considered a corporation.
Corporation tier is something like Sony's 108,900 employee count.
>they aren't considered a corporation
That literally is not how it works.
Here's a little lesson in how businesses operate.
Valve LLC for example reorganized their business and became Valve Corporation in 2003, before Steam had even been launched, because they wanted to keep options open in terms of funding their business with stock. While Platinum Games is an entirely private corporation like Valve is, they are a corporation and have issued an undisclosed number of shares within the company. What makes a corporation a corporation is that it is a business owned by the shareholders.
Corporation: A legal entity owned by shareholders
LLC: A legal entity with one or more owners allowing for the transfer of ownership
Sole Proprietorship: A person operating as a business.
Partnership: A business jointly owned by two or more partners which has split liability between the partners
>paimonposter talking nonstop and dumping lore
In character
Question, are you a bong or American?
An American. I regularly work with business and help with their formation.
Not to be one of "those" people but that explains the problem. Corporation, company and GmbH/LLCs are somewhat ill defined in American English and can be used interchangeably.
Legally Valve is still an LLC.
Uh, no, Valve reincorporated in 2003, please do not talk about how American businesses work if you're British.
Pic related. Two seconds in the Washington Secretary of State website
>and can be used interchangeably
They absolutely cannot.
You cannot name a corporation Dicks and Chicks LLC, and you can't name an LLC Pussy and b***hes Inc.
The secretary of state will fricking reject that instantly and tell you to put the proper business designation on or drop it off entirely.
Obviously cyberpunk is the source of the meme and since Ganker is filled with children it's gonna take a while before they get it out of their system
I can't? The frick, it's a free country.
cringe samegay
Frick, you weeb trash are pathetic, Japs are born wageslaves, they literally die from overwork there and think it's a good thing, they don't understand western/white concepts like human/worker rights.
we have worker rights because we do a good job
why do you think we import so much from the east? because they're low-value, so we get them to do the menial tasks while we innovate
Where's the Proof?
What's funny is that if this is true Taylor is going to be in legitimate legal trouble. Openly lying and making up nonsense with the explicit purpose to mislead, boycott, and damage Platinum is textbook libel. She'd be lucky just to get a job at all after this let alone voice Bayonetta again.
>Openly lying and making up nonsense
what proof is there that she lied?
see
That's a fake account. That being said, she still hasn't posted those emails she claims to have sent which is strange because she already broke NDA so might as well go all in
bayonetta 3 looks like dogshit anyway. even worse than 2.
you haven't been able to properly discuss bayo ever since nintendo bought the rights, since saying anything negative about bayo 2/3 results in a gay console war
It just won't feel like Bayonetta anymore. If I know it's the the same voice actress, every time she bellows out her lines in combat it won't feel as satisfying.
After what Hellena did? Yeah, that's a good thing. I don't want to be reminded of her even again.
>I don't want to be reminded of her even again.
did it hurt your feelings when she criticized daddy nintendo?
Enjoy Jennifer Hale's shitty fake british accent lol
Frickin sucks, man
I heard a bunch of things, but I'd appreciate if some anons would confirm if they're true or not:
>is Hellena Taylor unionized?
>did the amount she claimed correspond to union-defined prices?
>is Jeniffer Hale in the same union?
>isn't Hellena Taylor one of those "problematic" right wingers? Couldn't that be what made her not get hired?
Yes
Yes
Yes
No one knows because she deleted stuff before this drama begun
>Yes
>Yes
>Yes
Okay then none of this makes any sense. It can only mean Hellena is out of her mind to call for a boycot. Everything would've been cleared if Kamiya or anyone else at Platinum just said that.
I mean, he did say she was lying. He just did it in the most Kamiya way possible and it's not like they can say anything right now because saying something would cause the game to get spoiled
>>is Hellena Taylor unionized?
Yes
>>did the amount she claimed correspond to union-defined prices?
It was actually higher
>>is Jeniffer Hale in the same union?
Yes
>>isn't Hellena Taylor one of those "problematic" right wingers? Couldn't that be what made her not get hired?
Maybe, she hasn't been in anything sine Smash 4 so who knows?
>Maybe, she hasn't been in anything sine Smash 4 so who knows?
She's a stage actor. It's like saving David Humphey hasn't done shit since Sonic Heroes when he's a swim school instructor now.
>She's a stage actor
That's the thing, she's not credited for any stage performances in that time either.
She hasn't done a stage performance since 1994
She maybe does local charity and school shows, but it's all unaccredited shit that would pay like $100 for transportation and free food.
If she has a job it's not in performance arts.
If she was doing the same amount of VO as the first 2 games, then it was basically the minimum rate.
>yes
>yes, it was above standard
>yes
>she is but nips don't care about politics
I don’t even care about Bayo that much (played only the first one), but this shitshow is extremely entertaining to watch.
Best case scenario would be both sides losing tbh.
Well this would certainly make me less inclined to want to hire her in the first place.
but anon, the problem was NOT hiring her you silly
I don't think she really gives a shit at this point
Oh no…
Anyway
Don't care, still gonna buy it
Can't enjoy Bayo anymore know what a raging christ cuck the VA is and a total hag
Bayonetta is a hag.
Not a wrinkly one come on
I know Bayo 1 is on PC. What about Bayo 2? If possible I'd rather just play this on PC instead of a switch.
HA.
Nintendo owns the rights to 2 and 3. You're shit out of luck so it's either buy a switch or deal with emulation.
Ah shit. Well I do have a switch, although I haven't touched it since BOTW. Might as well dust it off and give it a shot
Gayonetta was always a troon series. You reap what you sow.
>game that ends with Bayo bawd dancing
>troony
Are you sure you don't want to just suck on a wiener?
So how would you handle this if you were a Nintendo executive?
You have a decently well known exclusive aimed at both eastern and Western players coming up soon, an angry woman on Twitter riling up people against you and an angry Japanese man who only makes things worse.
What’s the correct move here?
Fire the angry Japanese man and tell the lady to go away.
>So how would you handle this if you were a Nintendo executive?
Why would Nintendo get involved? This has nothing to do with them.
>Tell the Japanese man to shut the frick up
>Let the controversy blow over, people on twitter will get distracted by something else tomorrow
>If you really feel like it, put together a statement with the PR team that explains the situation from our side of things
>Move on to marketing the next game
So exactly what Nintendo's doing.
Do nothing, this "controversy" is doing wonders because no one is siding with her especially in Japan.
that angry woman is a giga conservative anyone sucking her metaphorical dick is going to make a 180 real fricking quick
it's funny that she's such a literal who that no one even knew that until someone bothered to look at her twitter
I'd handle it like nintendo handles every outrage: do nothing and let it blow over
Give everybody a free switch bundled with Bayo3, name the israelites, then sell the company to Genshin.
The Japanese man is simple. They contact their Yakuza goon squad to go threaten Kamiya at this home to keep his fricking mouth shut on the issue and not utter a single word until the game is out or else.
The screaming woman is easy. They ignore her directly, but address the issue publicly by distancing themselves from the issue and make it clear it was all Platinum's fault and they agree voice actors should be paid a higher wage and then proceed to do nothing at all.
>So how would you handle this if you were a Nintendo executive?
Remove English VAs from their future titles
This. Just keep JP audio only and this kind of shit won't ever happen again.

Not to sure what's wrong with the other ones. We'll have to wait on him.

I'm sure it'll get Zelda Cycled back into being le masterpiece the moment the new 3D Mario is announced

It was a horrible weak to be a bayonetta fan when we found out bayonetta 2 was Nintendo exclusive
Bayonetta 2 wouldn't have existed if it weren't for Nintendo
What we got was a pet sematary monkey paw attempt thanks to Nintendo
stay mad snoy
>snoy
Who the frick would play Bayonetta on PS3? Try again
Not since the SNES have I given Nintendo credit for anything except this and putting her in Smash. At this point all I really care about is Shimazaki getting to draw more. Nintendo and Platinum and Kamiya can do whatever else so long as that lady stays employed.
No anon, that was a beautiful week.
This gif never get old.
That's because everything about the Bayo salt era was golden.
I miss those days.

If you're here to talk about video games you're actually moronic. There are other places for that. No, I'm not telling you.
>Don't be on topic. That's frowned upon.
Frick this line of thinking
>tfw someone mentions the Castlevania "anime" in a castlevaia thread
>Involve English VAs
>They actively campaign to boycott your games
There's a lesson to be learned here.
Good, you Platinumgays have been shitting up action game threads for years at this point and it's about time you all got taken down a few notches.
The funny part about this is Bayo is such a niche game that a boycott might actually work and another Bayo game may never be made as a result of this
why are you homosexuals still raiding
everyone is gonna forget this in 2 days
have a nice day
These 2 days have been pretty funny to me personally. Seeing Kamiya rise like a Phoenix from the asses after being defeated by the heroic Twitter was funny, seeing people boycott the game only to see it rise in sales was extra funny, knowing full well that the people who stan Taylor are going to buy the game because they have no real convictions is also fun.
We even had a board here last night talking about the game which is how I learned that Demons can rebel against you. Not all hope is lost Anon
It doesn't matter. Nintendo HATES negative press. Platinum or at the very least, Kamiya is finished after Bayo 3's release.
Anon they get negative press all the time. Xenoblade 2 got negative press for how it used fanservice to the point The frick from Kotaku is still mad, Federation Force was all bad press and Nintendo still hired them for Luigi’s Mansion 3, Amiibo festival, Echoes’ DLC, and literally all the fan games they take down. They don’t care if they make a profit and Bayo is making more of a profit then it was before.
Bruh Hellena's video got public support from current active Nintendo voice actors, and got mainstream attention on TMZ. This is not the same as a single kotaku article.
And it is doing wonders for the game according to retailers. The dollar rules all and in a week it won’t matter because in a week nothing matters on the internet.
Nintendo is literally making a game with Ubisoft which also hit mainstream due to several problems news and they gave fricking Mario
>wonders for the game according to retailers.
Literally not a single retailer has made this claim.
It is literally climbing the retailer charts according to the sites. It is literally above Mario and Rabbids on Amazon and top 30 for game with controllers and gift cards included, top 10 without those. 2 days ago when it got its big trailer it wasn’t even charting on almost anything
>sales of gone up
Lel this guy fell for the paint edits.
Hellena's video is at over 10 million views and rising, and according to insiders there's going to be an all hands on deck meeting between nintendo and platinum on monday. If you think Nintendo won't cut Platinum lose you're absolutely insane. Especially now that Kamiya has made an absolute fricking joke of himself.
>and according to insiders there's going to be an all hands on deck meeting between nintendo and platinum on monday.

tw*tter can only ever focus on one thing at a time
People only started beating the shit out of Kamiya when he tried to smugly insult Hellena because he thought that his reputation would earn him favor with the masses.
God damn she's gorgeous without the glasses. Glasses are so fricking ugly
People will forget all about it a week or so after 3 comes out.
it's only horrible if you give a shit about what a white woman thinks.
not everyone is a racist incel like you
you can't be racist to whites.

What does Bayonetta have to do with trannies? How? How does it have anything to do with them?
>I'll never be able to talk about Bayonetta again.
>Implying anyone was before this drama lol
I'm sure this shit did more good for the sales than anything. Bet most people completely fricking forgot Bayo 3 was even coming out this month
I'm sure there are people who forgot or don't even know it was coming out this year. That's what happens when we get jack shit about the game for the last five years
I seen normies being outraged about this drama with 1 million+ views on shittok. Day 1 emulation for me kek.
Frick off OP. Stop being a homosexual.
Goes without saying, don't treat your talent like trash.
Kamiya was blindingly arrogant and unbelievably childish as usual and paid the price for it.
I feel like I’ve seen this post 5 times in the last 3 days , get a job dude.
Not him but I've seen like 50 threads about this shit the past couple of days, old takes aren't surprising since people keep rehashing the same arguments over and over and over and over and over and over
I hate what video games have become and this drama is a good example of why.

This shit is not video games, you are not a star because we used you to make a fricking animation mostly because using real animators is costly.
You are not a star for givong your voice to a character, this character doesn't belong to you. You're just added flavour for a thing that would work anyway otherwise.
Frick give me back the indistinct babble of Monster hunter, Zelda, Mario. We don't need any of these leeches because they can't find work in LA.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
what did she get for the previous games
I cant fricking believe Kamiya is a 51 year old man acting like a literal 10 year old boy having a tantrum
No wonder he got banned from actually game development after 101 copies sold
A man in 2022 stands up to a woman. He's a hero.
Holy cope
It's funny seeing Nincels turn against an iconic voice of their favorite games. What a bunch of cultists who's only beholden to the company and not the games.
I think the problem is contrarianism because people are making judgements based on "what does x group think about this" then believing the opposite in absolutely every case.
I find most voice actors fricking annoying but I feel bad for Hellena because she was good at what she does and she genuinely seems to have been done wrong by Platinum.
I guess this is the price we pay to avoid turning into another overly modderated shitlib forum like reddit or ResetEra.
>tfw snoys try to turn this into a console war, even though it’s Platinum who’s mainly involved

Her face looks so good here, what went wrong?
Gonna miss her old voice but i think her replacement does a decent job. It just wont have that flare im used to hearing.
Still fine by me. This is "different" bayo, after all.
