The Game Awards 2016 Thread: Kojima Time Featuring The Kojimas

Yeah, I really do not effing get it.

And then he's talking about how he got into the business.

Not everyone is you, dude.

I'm thinking he's speaking more to the request of voice actors getting "residuals" and stuff when there's a far larger group of people who are more deserving of it.

It's a difficult issue. On the one hand, actors deserve to make a living wage, and deserve to enjoy the success of the product they worked on. On the other hand, there are literally hundreds of people who work on some games, and who almost invariably work harder than the voice actors.

Coldzera deserves that win. Awesome.

He's considered by many, if not most, the best CS:GO player right now. They fucked up the clip though, they had Fer's camera, on top of Coldzera's gameplay.

Biggest voice actor in games coming out with the video game equivalent of #alllivesmatter speech. Kind of gross. Of course it's easy for him to make that statement when he's making bank. Is this Kind of like people shitting on mcdonalds workers for getting a 15 dollar min wage when other professions like paramedics make the same? Just because one profession makes shit doesn't mean the next guy isn't entitled to a living wage. This is crap.

This is a valid opinion too. Even if we doubt his sincerity, how about his entitlement? Is he in the right position to speak on it?

It's a hard play to be fair, and maybe not, maybe he isn't. But I trust that he's a guy who says this out of feeling more than malice. No that doesn't mean it's not ignorant. But as the situation unfolds it's hard to take any side without accusations of ignorance.

I felt bad for the translator, she looked legitimately worried that he just kept going and going.

You're supposed to take breaks for the translator to translate it bit by bit !

She naturally translated about half of what he said.
