Topic	SquareEnix's Avengers game has a countdown on their website for a big reveal
ParanoidObsessive 06/11/19 3:58:16 AM #36:	Usually, games are shit when they get the original actors, because they're bad at doing VO work. Getting a sound-alike, or at least a solid VA with a proven track record results in way better dialogue. Compare the Spider-Man games where they got Tobey Maguire to voice the character to the most recent game where they went with prolific and talented Yuri Lowenthal to voice the character, and it's such a huge difference. I'll take quality VO representing a slightly more generic version of a character to one slavishly trying to duplicate a movie version of said character every single time. Kevin Conroy as Batman in the Arkham games was way better than if they'd gotten literally anyone who's ever played the character in live-action at any point. We need more of that and less celebrity stuntcasting. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family <cite>ParanoidObsessive posted [p:923107644] in SquareEnix...
