[@ninelivesstealer]

I always feel bad for Andrew, he seems like such a legitimately cool guy and it's too bad he seems to have big self esteem problems. If you see this I love you Andrew! (and Kaya too)

[@Huggbees]

ninelivesstealer I don't actually have self esteem issues, I think I'm a we'll put together dude even if my jokes don't always land. Typically when I shit talk myself it's either sarcasm or self depricating humor. Also I love you too.

[@ninelivesstealer]

well now don't I feel like a fool But I'm glad to hear that :D

[@austinturner8373]

[@madsherm123]

You guys completely disregarded metro exodus :(

[@brandonbruner1688]

That was the only game I'm looking forward to

[@fight4ourright306]

Metro is going to be an amazing game just like the last 2. I think Charlie mentioned it but he forgot the actual name. God that game is going to be good.

[@brandonbruner1688]

Wolfenstein looked good also but metro is one of my favorite games and I was more hyped to see a new metro game

[@shukterhousejive]

Mike Bush it looks cool but I hope they do something good with the open world

[@dedan1816]

Why didn't we get a Morrowind or Oblivion remake? We don't need another fucking version of Skyrim.

[@Gavin-Naumann]

Dedan Of Zone 1 Exactly

[@griffithdidnothingwrong8779]

Dedan Of Zone 1 Another version of Skyrim has nothing to do with it. Use that brain and take another guess please.

[@FlipDarkFuture]

Probably because fan projects like Skywind and Skyblivion will be taking care of those itches? And it's not another version of Skyrim, it's just Skyrim being ported to the Switch. People don't flip their shit when every single Resident Evil game has been ported 6000 times since their release, so why flip the shit now?

[@griffithdidnothingwrong8779]

FlipDarkFuture Why do people blame Skyrim on switch anyway? That has nothing to do with it. If Bethesda is truly delaying the next Elder Scrolls it'll be because of Elder Scrolls online not a port of Skyrim on Switch.

[@pilebunker420]

game engine. and skyrim doesn't look as bad as the others in vr.

[@SirRoswellington]

On the topic of the SAG-AFTRA Voice Actors Strike, this is what the actors are asking for: "There are four major issues being fought for with this strike. Transparency, so actors can better negotiate their contracts, preventing vocal stress from long recording sessions, stunt coordinators on performance capture sets, and payment of residuals based on sales of a video game, which have traditionally not been used in the video game industry."

[@quintonlutz2301]

The Official Podcast #27: Kaya Still Doesn't Like Anything!

[@Jimmy_Sullivan]

I'm a big Life is Strange fan too and I'm too disappointed that Ashley Burch won't voice Chloe, but Kaya's opinion about the VA strike was completely wrong. It's not the voice actors or the SAG-AFTRA unions fault. They want better and safer work environment. If you want to blame somebody, blame Blindlight (the studio Square Enix uses for VA), which is one of the companies for who union VAs are forbidden to work during the strike, for not making agreement with SAG-AFTRA. I REALLY recommend reading this article by Wil Wheaton about the strike: medium.com/@wilw/this-is-why-i-support-a-sag-aftra-strike-authorization-for-video-games-and-it-isn-t-about-money-d9123d7a700d

[@aslychair3096]

Jimmy Sullivan I know this was a serous comment but when you said safer environments I can only think that their in the middle of a war zone until they finish recording 24 hours of voices.

[@koboldbiopellet]

The Official Opinion on spiderman did not age well. People loved the Spiderman game and Miles has become very popular outside of comics due to some very good animated movies starring him.

[@Pikalu12]

Wow, Kaya, really? Voice actors "Acting like pampered little babies?" "Making hundreds of thousands?" A lot of them don't make shit and are treated like shit, too.

[@uncannyvalley3190]

This comment didn’t age well plus I don’t think it was correct even back in 2018. Voice Actors do make hundreds of thousands and are revered

[@anacutalcannibal163]

more like boring press conferences because E3 wasn't interesting

[@officerdonut7066]

i liked the games Fc5

[@griffithdidnothingwrong8779]

AnAcutalCannibal And who are u?

[@centralintelligenceagency9003]

I only watched the EA conference and it was borderline experimental. It felt like some art student film or something, absolutely surreal.

[@lancearmada]

AnAcutalCannibal but monster hunter

[@ah-hn7ts]

AnAcutalCannibal and they say jokes cant be art

[@bobwall8021]

I think what Charlie was trying to say during the indie game bit was 10 years ago everything was a game, it didn't matter if it was triple a or a small team they were all equal. now indie devs make it a point that they are small teams and you should expect less from them for that, where as 10 years ago it wasn't like that, all games sold at the same price and we're all held with the same expectations.

[@alexgombos3717]

Kaya was really absurd, when it came the the voice actors strike. "It's really straining on the voice", "No, it's just about money". He just disregarded that the voice actors have really bad working conditions, and the fact that it's not just about money

[@centralintelligenceagency9003]

Voice actors are like prostitutes, anyone can be one.

[@carterroane1034]

Alex Gombos I love how he acted like voice acting is easy

[@MrRebelliousNerd]

It literally isn't the hardest thing in the world. It's just about the money, the working conditions bit is only to squeeze sympathy from saps as it brings up images of people working in the mines and factories. Good for propaganda, not to mention the absolute gaul to ask for bonuses when most people who work on the goddamn games don't even get that.

[@carterroane1034]

Hink​ It really has easy as you want it to be

[@naosou921]

And at the end he was proven right, because they were trying to get more money in their demands, like Jackson said after he researched it. Yes, it is straining on the voice. Because they are voice actors. It is their job and they are paid very well to do it. Developers on big games go on sleepless nights, artists work day in and day out. Everyone is strained. That is their job. There is a reason why their salary is high. Because it is a big and demanding project for everyone involved. It is not like the voice actors are the only ones being worked and everyone else is doing coke and banging hookers. I worked at a call center. That was 8 hours of talking basically NON-STOP talking 6 days per week. I did it for years. Yeah, there were some rough days, a lot of water drinking but it wasn't anything crippling. It was just a job. And I wasn't even paid well for it. Making a "strike" is pretty fucking stupid. Specially when they are damaging projects that involve the effort and livelyhood of a lot of people. There are hundreds or even thousands of people involved in the development of a triple A game (Back-office personel, developers, artists, voice actors, assistants, writers, testers, marketing, research...) They aren't victims of injustice. This strike was absolutely childish and showed a complete lack of respect for their work, their colleagues and the consumers.

[@thebunbun_]

"No one like Miles Morales, he's made for the crappy diversity stunt Marvel has beeb doing recently." Miles, whom debuted in 2011: "Am I a joke to you?"

[@asherking159]

The voice actors are in the right. Actually look it up it's not mainly about the money

[@somemong989]

I don't think getting a certain amount of royalties is unreasonable tbh.

[@willyguston407]

[@thembosupremepizza1827]

its silly how they said miles morales sucked when its legit the best spiderman game and movie yet

[@Dirty_Alex_]

Don't worry Jackson, I fell in love with star wars battlefront 2 as well

[@EpicGhostRider]

I just wanna say Devolver did show games. Ruiner and the Serious Sam thing.

[@carterroane1034]

Kaya obviously doesn't understand much about voice acting or unions.

[@mk3striker]

How is it that Andrew finally found a way to complain more than Kaya about something like hot damn is it bad. Jeesh

[@paulc6785]

Anyone who's an ES fan were you as happy as me that kaya knows the old horse armour meme. Also hearing Charlie say skyrim came at years before it did hurt a little.

[@hungryepicboys8895]

I always seem to disagree with whatever point Kaya and Andrew are making during these podcasts

[@sanserof7]

Horny Epic Boys I seem to agree with Jackson most of the time, he is a cool guy

[@user-gc9pq7zg9i]

sanserof7 that's why you should go to australia

[@sanserof7]

[@user-gc9pq7zg9i]

sanserof7 Its winter right now and I'm freezing my balls off.

[@sanserof7]

Pethyim '-' Lol I imagine even an Australian winter would be too hot for me, I like freezing temperatures

[@Kozvick]

That fucking horse armor joke.

[@TERPormf]

Kaya Metroid Samus Returns is technically a 2D Metroid game. It falls under the category of what people call 2.5D.

[@TERPormf]

Anyway thanks you guys for the awesome podcast.

[@MochaRitz]

It's a sidescroller, that doesn't make it a 2D game.

[@Nathanp4]

What a time to be recommended this. Rip E3.

[@hakolhevel3396]

You never even mentioned Shadow of War.

[@Tehstachewhacker]

Magnus DaBoss I am disappointed about that. Mostly given that Shadow of War is the only game to have gotten me as hyped as I am. though it does seem like they were shit talking most of what they discussed, so maybe it's for the better.

[@aslychair3096]

As soon as I saw an add for it that said if I bought it from GameStop I would get a bonus I was a little disappointed, it only continued from there.

[@papagoose3345]

Miles Morales replaced Peter in the ultimate universe not the main marvel universe, in the main universe he is now running around at the same time as Peter Parker

[@Blurredborderlines]

Why is no one talking about Devolver Digital conference? Is there some agreement that it didn't happen by literally everyone?

[@Blurredborderlines]

Man Andrew is relatable despite being cringey as fuck.

[@Blurredborderlines]

Also how can you say you're excited about BG&E2 when all they showed was a CGI cutscene that doesn't even match the same tone as the previous title that they're deciding to follow up on a decade too late? Come on Charlie.

[@Blurredborderlines]

Also the Cease and Desist "reasoning" by Nintendo is bunk because AM2R had been in the works for a decade yet just now they decide to take it down because "muh profits".

[@truedarkness4052]

Yeah! How dare Charlie for being excited for a game that he happened to look forward to!

[@AVWUVU]

Mystic Media Hope is the first step to disappointment.

[@Vintageferguson]

#27 is now my favorite Official podcast episode

[@TylerDeVenny]

"Kids are gonna be really angry at their grandmas this Christmas cuz they're gonna fuck up and get the S instead of the X" Series X and Series S: 😳

[@fandyus4125]

Good to know that Kaya doesn't want workers to have better working conditions, despite constantly dissing the rich and the powerful. Really consistent ideology there.

[@jinx8624]

hes actually fckn stupid i don't get how they let him be a host hes just some edgy guy who hates onm things and people he knows nothing about

[@caseyjankowski9918]

So Maya didn't know what a texture pack was.

[@apotato6278]

My favorite was microsoft and their ode to terrorism. Nine eleven, Nine eleven, Nine eleven. Every. Other. Second.

[@apotato6278]

yeah i know, the porsche 911 is a damn good car but don't you say "Nine hundred eleven" instead of "Nine eleven" and just because it's there doesn't mean they have to remind me every third second. It would be like if everybody on the official podcast would awkwardly mention their guests name at any possible opening. It gets annoying really fast. Just watch the presentation for forza

[@robj4078]

A potato You’d have to be a potato to get triggered in 2017 by a reference to a terrorist attack from 2001 due to someone saying the long established model of a car.

[@ImTheBluestBird]

I wish you guys were bigger Nintendo fans. I'm a huge Nintendo fan, have been for as long as I can remember. I've been a big fan of Xbox and PlayStation too but I'm with Kaya where 1 of every 10 AAA titles seem interesting to me, and I end up actually playing even less. Nintendo, however, has never failed to captivate me, even through the Wii U generation. That's why I was so glad to hear Andrew's praise.

[@marlona6642]

[@NoTLucas]

It's always been 60$ in the US, they adjust the price in other countries, Brazil has had an increase of 100% in game prices, you used to be able to buy games for R$130 in 2009, in 2015 prices started rising, reaching the R$260 we pay now. Great stuff.

[@doctorsoggy5563]

we need h3h3 on here, and these guys on the h3h3 podcast

[@SSmotzer]

Just so you guys know, the strike isn't just about money. Voice actors are sometimes never told what they will be working on. So you could be called up and your agent will tell you you are voicing a character in a video game, that is it. Then they will go in for like 12-16 hours and just keep doing lines for a character they do not know in a game they aren't allowed to know. It won't be till months or even years later they it turns out that they were voicing the main character in the biggest budgeted game of the year and it will go on to sell millions of copies. Meanwhile, he got the same pay for those lines as if it was an indie title from a nobody game developer.

[@shukterhousejive]

The reason the programmers don't get the same good deals as the voice actors is because the programmers don't collectivize and have a union or anything

[@TwilightWolf2508]

I know I'm 5 years late but "On the SNES the games were $70" I have a copy of the original Legend of Zelda on Snes, still in the cellophane, with the $10 price tags from Walmart. Iirc PS1 games were $20. PS2 games were $40.

[@albertrobles7973]

Whoah whoah whoah, Andrew. Miles was in way before marvel turned full SJW, he used to be pretty good and not at all forced when he was in the ultimate universe.

[@DemonLordSparda]

Ah yes the infamous SJW Marvel... where Captain America is a nazi and always has been. That and Hydra won and only aren't winning now because the allies rewound and rewrote history. Sounds super SJW to me. Also Marvel is losing sales due to their bad practices, they reboot and cancel series in the blink of an eye while having so many crossover series that people can't get into the stories because of the laundry list of titles they have to read. Also their response to people not liking Secret Empire? Just buy the whole thing it'll be good we promise. Like that's a sensible response to people not liking things. Finally the comics that were heroes getting changed into newer and diverse characters are selling pretty well. Secret Empire is flopping pretty badly though.

[@Sycamore13]

Hey guys, calling from 2010, we got crowdfunding and shit. I think even though it's taking forever to be released, the biggest counter argument to your "game developers aren't taking any risks" is Star Citizen.

[@alkyy77]

Deniz Çınar Akçay I think they mean that studios who usually make AAA games should take risks

[@Sycamore13]

Yeah, i know they meant that, but this is the way out and the solution to it if the developers give two shits about their game or "brain child" let's say. (I mean the people who are actually developing it, not the investors or the corporate side of the company)

[@metaldragoon9468]

Moon Emoji thank you, I worked hard for it

[@angryJEWwaiter]

26:20 "Kaya is hitting the money on the head" I found that so funny for some reason

[@Dinobot_Sigma]

God forbid voice actors should ask for better conditions or more money! Does this asshole know how hard it is to make a living being an actor? Any kind of actor? The reason they need higher salaries is because the work is so few and far between, so when they do work they need to get paid substantially more than the average joe, otherwise they can't make a living off of voice acting alone. I'm a screen actor and a voice actor and believe me it's no fucking cakewalk. It's incredibly hard to make ends meet off of acting work. The gigs are sparse, so when you do get a gig it has to pay well, otherwise the whole acting profession will disappear.

[@JustinMcBucketss]

Andrew says "I don't think any of the voice actors from until dawn were big names" and I'm screaming THEYRE ALL BIG NAMES

[@바로핑-k1s]

Kaya's ignorance is a real turn off. He just brings everything down and doesn't know what he's talking about half of the time.

[@MochaRitz]

I really wish you guys actually watched the Nintendo conference so that this would be a well rounded discussion. I was waiting for Nintendo the entire time and then only Andrew watched it, what the hell man.

[@SmarkusAurelius]

>Bethesda is shit >Battlefield is amazing Andrew has shit taste confirmed

[@truedarkness4052]

Bethesda isn't even that good. The only games that they have made that are actually fun to play include Wolfenstein, Doom, and Fallout 3. However, the fact that they are going to hog the fallout license pisses me off. They should just hand over the IP to Obsidian.

[@shrike_3588]

Mystic Media Do people actually still pretend Bethesda isn't a good developer? They're ONE of the most successful RPG developer around and have been for a while. You may not like the games but they have a huge fan base for a reason. I don't like the Pittsburgh penguins, but I'm not going to say "they're not even that good" after they won the Stanley cup.

I think it's a "cool to hate" type thing. Opinions are fine, not liking a game is fine. But looking at a franchise like the Elder Scrolls and calling it "shit" is objectively wrong. You can not like it sure, I mean, I don't like Fallout but that doesn't mean they're bad games

Every Bethesda game after Morrowind needed copious amounts of mods to make them enjoyable, Oblivion had heinous level scaling that made it borderline unplayable (barring the many, often game breaking bugs which had to be addressed by - guess who - the modding community) and Skyrim barely is a role playing game, it's an action adventure game. To call these games good is objectively wrong, they have so many flaws the end user has to work around or fix it's disgusting. I know this. I played both Oblivion AND Skyrim on console, and it was a miserable experience all around, so don't even dare mentioning nostalgia. Bethesda is a company with a history of broken promises and insults to their community.

Shrike _ Bethesda is more focused on what will appeal to the lowest common denominator rather than actually making quality games. A perfect example is what they did with fallout 4. 3 was already slipping in terms of rpg mechanics, but 4 straight out removes most if not all the preexisting RPG mechanics, leaving some borderlands/skyrim leveling system that isn't great in an RPG sense. Their games have been going this way since oblivion.

26:30 Metal Gear wouldnt be the same without David Hayter. He IS Snake. Voice actors are ACTORS who have to train to perform. They absolutely deserve royalties in the same way actors in movies deserve them. Its not their fault that companies would rather sit on their profits than pay what they deserve.

*sees thumbnail involves skyrim* I've never clicked anything so fucking fast

[@Burgandary]

so how disappointed are you?

[@brycehartmann4856]

Burgandary I don't want to talk about it...

[@zoeymorrigan6521]

I wanted to hear them talk shit about it and how stupid people are to keep on buying the same product again and again and again. It's such a bad game.

[@brycehartmann4856]

zoey morrigan skyrim itself I isn't a bad game, it's what Bethesda is doing to make it better that makes it worse, they're making so many remakes, there's almost as many elder scrolls games as skyrim games. in my opinion, they should focus less on butchering a great game, and not on making a brand new game of the year

[@brycehartmann4856]

Where is your profile pic from? I'm not referring to the remastered version, if any game deserves it it's skyrim. I'm talking about the vr shit. while I can see how that would be exciting, I believe they should bring more focus into creating a new elder scrolls title or even some DLC for skyrim

Telltales games usually have great acting in them. Especially Walking Dead.
