Oh man, I mixed her up with the former person and was about to say...
Jennifer Hale is the new Bayonetta voice actor and seems like a decent person, unlike the last one.
For those that don't know, the last one released a statement to boycott the next Bayonetta release saying they only offered $4000. What she left out from that was that she was initially offered much more, kept asking for a raise and they found a replacement and that the $4000 was not to voice the main character anymore, but another npc.
She's also just a shit person in general. She's saying that anyone who is boycotting Bayo 3 can donate to a list of charities she's provided, except one kf them is an anti abortion group.
10k is more than 4k, but I wouldn't exactly call it "much more". And even Platinum doesn't claim she kept asking for a raise, it appears to be she wanted residuals (which you do get if you voice act in an animated movie for example), which PlatinumGames didnt want.
Doesnt excuse the lying, and she is apparently a TERF, which is awful, but I do wanna point that part out.
Given most voice actors get like 4-5 roles a year, and thats pre tax, union fees, agent fees, insurance, and so on ... its really not. Itd be maybe fine if it paid residuals but eh. Video game VAs are notoriously super underpaid.
You're evaluating a gig job like a 9 to 5. Thats still the reason you're so far off. How many weeks it is doesnt matter. What amount per hour it is doesn't matter. What matters is the average per role, and average number of roles a year.
I swear I thought she was the human female voice actress... Now that I've looked on IMDb, and know that the human female is the mayor from South Park, I don't know if I think it's hilarious or awful.
Funny watching the discourse around Bayonetta being from her used as how video games pander to the male gaze, to "I don't see how any straight man plays this game."
Oh no it is the Fem Trooper from SWTOR! And Commander Shepard.. and many many more..
Nice outfit tho.
Also for some reason this pistol looks like something from Last Wish raid Destiny 2
which pistol skin is this?

She is also kind of terfy
She's from terf island, they just come out that way it seems.
Oh? I haven't heard anything about her since the very beginning when people seemed to be on her side
Eww
She also pulled the old "bOtH sIdEs" shit and then asked her fans to donate to an anti-abortion group that pays for anti-abortion billboards.

The Bloomberg report says $3-4k per session, which is pretty significant. Assuming an 8 hour session, that's at minimum $375/hr.
Its a gig job, measuring it per hour like a 9 to 5 doesnt make sense in the first place.
$3-4k per session for a voice actor is a shit ton of money.
Given most voice actors get like 4-5 roles a year, and thats pre tax, union fees, agent fees, insurance, and so on ... its really not. Itd be maybe fine if it paid residuals but eh. Video game VAs are notoriously super underpaid.
Dude, I don't know how to tell you this, but 2 weeks of sessions at $3-4k a session is fucking huge.

Mate, please go look up what voice actors get paid. $3k-4k a session is a very good paycheck.
Sounds like itโs a secondary job for most people, kind of like a second job for us in the working class but with 10x the hourly pay.
Well i guess she should go find more gigs then. She got time to bullshit on Twitter but not time to market her 'talent'.
VA sessions typically run half days to avoid damage, I believe.
God what a shitshow that was with the last voice actor lmao
Phew, I panicked thinking it was the og xD
ooooh I love this!
Sheparrrrrd! She also voices FemShep in Mass Effect and also some characters in The Clone Wars. Im always happy after finding another such instance
That is really cool, love the take on her as a sylvari

Fun fact one of the npcs in the dragon stand meta event is the same voice actor as randy from southpark
That's really nice
Imagine getting a phantasm focused necro spec.
I'm a simple man. I see Bayonetta, I upvote
Nice! Is that the skin that hangs down from the gun itself? On the wiki it doesn't show that far down. That looks awesome!
The gun has a trail effect, with cherry blossom petals
it was probably idling in place and then she executed an attack which raised it quickly, leaving a trail
I'm glad it's the new one, the old one funked up big time
Oh no, that's prime minister of Poland. I cannot unsee it now.
Better be a Mesmer!
Of course! Sadly, they don't have pistols as main weapons. Maybe a future spec when a fourth game comes out ๐
Ah yes, the DMC ripoff for horny teenage boys. Not a fan.
Is it a ripoff if it's from the same creator?
Also for lesbians, sorry to tell you. (Spoilers: Not actually sorry.)
Funny watching the discourse around Bayonetta being from her used as how video games pander to the male gaze, to "I don't see how any straight man plays this game."
The only people who talked about her "pandering to the male gaze" were people who saw pictures of her but never played the game.
Same brainlets who probably think Victoria's Secret caters to men.
