I DEMAND AN ANSWER, GAF!

 

[TissueBox]

Because the world shrugged.

 

[MayauMiao]

Also Kratos from God of War.

 

[NecrosaroIII]

They're getting cancelled for this right now. Era.

Link, No Zelda!

 

[jigglet]

Because they also made a game with strong LGBT characters.

If you're on their side, context matters. If you're not on their side, context is just noise.

 

[LordCBH]

Be sure no one gave a shit until the Neanderthals started screeching about 3 days ago.

 

[kretos]

Also Kratos from God of War.

you do know that Kratos looks white cause that's the ashes of his family that he slaughtered

 

[Oddvintagechap]

The gray area of casting for characters of color in games

From Uncharted to WarGroove.

I guess his son's skin tone is the result of the white ash.

 

[MayauMiao]

I do enjoy Twitter twats destroying each other with the virtue signal callouts.

Or the mother? Edit: Hes half Norwegian.

I'm black I never cared what color a voice actor was

 

[Jooxed]

Link, No Zelda!

Get out

Why do you assume it's HIS son?

 

[MayauMiao]

Me too but apparently 2020 made it a big deal.

Just imagine that black VAs having a really hard time finding work in the anime industry.

 

[MayauMiao]

Why do you assume it's HIS son?

Maybe due to fact that he had a sparta moment.

 

[Yoboman]

Or the mother?

Demographics of Greece in 2020 are certainly the same as nearly 3000 years ago

 

[Saint Boot]

To compare, Nobody complained that white girl Ashley Williams in the Mass Effect trilogy was played by a black voice actress.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Maybe due to fact that he had a sparta moment.

You might not be his father, but you can still be his dad.

you were saying?

I had an old NeoGAF account that was banned in a thread that talked about how messed up it was that Laura Bailey was casted as that character in Uncharted 4 several years ago. I didn't even say anything wrong. I just thought I could shed some light as my sister was/is a voice actress and that it's not uncommon for developers and publishers to roll through certain agencies, and that there's always a possibility that some actors and actresses aren't available. When deadlines play a role maybe they had someone else in mind and it wouldn't work out. Plus they worked with Laura before and she's no rookie in video game voice acting.

tl;dr, GAF is much, much, much better these days.

 

[Enjay]

That's some real shameful shit right there.

 

[Yoboman]

you were saying?

Was the sarcasm not laid on thick enough?
