Game Developer: "Okay, we need a voice for an Asian American who needs to be emotional enough to make people actually cry from his performance..." *asks British guy famous for his monotone voice and sarcastic speaking style*
MisterB And the sad part was that in terms of acting, IHE did a great job IMHO. He was just horribly miscast and only given a half assed script to work with.
i was supposed to be in this too and i had the *SAME* problems you did. the same exact problems. they gave me the lines and then as i read them he was like "you kind of have a new york accent... can you not?" lmfao. that's my fucking accent. i can't just GET RID OF IT. and then they were like "your character's dad is russian can you do a russian accent?" and no, i can't. so i had to drop it. they were nice people but they were so unorganized.
zachery Phillips Nah, then he couldn't use pedophilia as an accusation against rsgloryandgold or Pyrocynical. He'd certainly appoint TommyNYC as his VP though.
I have to think that Keemstar was doing this as a joke. His delivery sounds like he is talking about Nick Crompton leaving Team 10 rather than humanity surrendering to alien invaders.
The kind that accurately describes how I feel about hearing his voice coming out of that character. I love IHE's voice though, so I don't think it's him :3
As someone who writes and edits audio projects, their first main problem was not waiting until the script was finished before getting a cast. I always wait until I have a confirmed finished script before attempting to run auditions (because I do a lot of waiting for people to volunteer and seeing if they actually deliver). I don't expect professionalism, I just want people to have fun with their chosen roles.
Guy 1: let's get youtubers to voice this Guy 2: huh, that might actually work There are several aspiring voice actors that have shown lots of talent and have a fanbase that they can promote the game to. We could contact Sieg VA, PM Seymour, Micheale Laws, maybe even ask ProZD to voice the President-- Guy 1: fuck that, lets get Keemstar on this.
AJ Patterson yes, atleast I believe actors can be credited for voice work on video games. For example, I know that on IMDb, the actress who voiced Eleanor lamb from BioShock 2 has it listed in her credits. So Alex could well be listed as doing voice work on there.
ProtoMario Hello Proto. Soon my financial situation will allow me to repatreon with $20. Hope you are doing well regardless. Loved your video a few months back where you allowed fans to submit theories
I don't understand why this should be a problem. If IHE can't do an American accent then that's understandable, but then it doesn't matter what heritage the character has, since he's predominantly American. When it comes to voice acting, anything goes: women voicing little boys, humans voicing aliens, VA with one heritage voicing character with another. Unless he got the direction to sound Asian and American at the same time there's no issue. Making it one is like demanding a transsexual role in a movie be played by a transsexual (that happened), when it really doesn't matter so long as the actor is good.
I was a sound designer for the game and I noticed the same thing. I worked on character NPC lines (yours included) and I realized a lot were used for SFM cutscenes and not for NPCs. Whole project was a mess and Berkan/Frank was very quiet about it.

+MizuiroNo It's not your fault. You did your job well, other people screwed it all up. Don't let this one project drag down your career or take away your passion or confidence in your skills.

Nalce - Yungtown is The Snatcher, SungWon Cho plays the owls, Smash Bros. announcer Xander Mobus voices The Conductor. Those are the three off the top of my head.
I think a good director would: 1. Cast actors knowing what he wants form them and knowing they can deliver that 2. Work with them to help them get the performance he wants None of that seems to have happened here.
Honestly it doesn't matter the race of the voice actor all they really need is to convey the character A person with a British accent won't be convincing as an American Also I think IHE ment that if he's Asian and he's American then it wouldn't make sense for him to have the British accent.
@@ImmaLittlePip a British person can be convening, Tom holland for example his British but I really couldn't tell when I saw him in movies, so just anyone who can hide their accent
ImmaLittlePip the race of the voice actor doesn’t necessarily matter unless you’re implementing their culture in their character somehow. So it would be really beneficial for a well written script if the voice actor could connect on that level
Well all your command block stuff was actually fun and inspired, unlike this game. It may have been doomed from the start, but hey I'm sure most of those who found your work and your channel appreciated it. Still something to be proud of.
Ricardo Montania look again buddy, I don't think you know at all what jragon does. They're not just making low effort Minecraft let's plays as you seem to think.
I'm sure that you know absolutely nothing about jragon or Minecraft. Haha very funny isn't it just great to stereotype the entire Minecraft community based off it's younger audiences and more terrible youtubers? What an original joke that has never been made before. I mean, given that Minecraft got so popular, it's clearly a terrible game for only little kids and normies, can't be for big boy hipsters like you. Who has the time for intelligent comments and research when you can spout whatever the current popular opinion is while only judging on the first few RUclips videos you see on the subject, am I right?
Originally based a mapper for this game, I was never credited because I quit early because me and Berkan ( the director ) had a large argument. But, that argument was the best thing of my life... He promised $50 per map, never received. Development was an unorganized mess, none of the developers got a full version of the game until released. Didn't know the story, didn't know there was even a Discord Fuck this shit.
Tako Isha quite so, Berkan ordered me to create an office building, and I have content and templates for the game. But it was never included I guess... It wasn't really finished non the less had much time or effort into it, and when we had the argument I left anyway so whatever
Pfffft Keemstar was supposed to be President in this? He sounds like a smarmy DJ Radio host...not the actual one, just the one they bring in when the real one needs some time off for vacation or sick days.
Jrezky By what Alex said in the video, it seems they were just sent lines to record themselves, with their own kit. So Keemstar likely did use the same setup.
@@M.J44 They really look like very precisely put scars, Like the most cliche ones trying to be quirky, Eye scar, cheek scar, touching the hair scar, chin scar, when have you not seen those scars inside every other game?
@@oofsong9496 Exactly. They also look just so unnatural. You mean to tell me that the guy in the HEV suit had impeccable aim to make exact double scars in every spot? I don't think so. (Not directed at you, but whoever's idea it was for the 3d model.)
cykron even still I couldn't imagine IHE doing enemy position call-outs in a combat situation or shouting across a battlefield. He sounds a lot more like the posh lieutenant in the big tent telling people what to do.
They spent over 100k on the rights and assets alone, they can't lower it to a around dollar the game to a dollar because even though that'd be a good decision, that would be them accepting that they've just lost well over 100k dollars.
Can we also talk about how Keemstar’s voice on a RADIO has ZERO radio filter on it? It just sounds like he’s there speaking. How the fuck do you not notice that??
The sad thing is Keemstar is somehow, technically, somewhat canon. ... If it has a price tag it's canon. Also IHE and Pyrocynical are technically canon. Whoop-de-doo.
Keem didn't even BOTHER to try to act he just did his announcer voice which is so JARRING with the mood! wtf XD He sounds more like he's narrating a soccer game and not the dramatic moment it's supposed to be. this is hysterical.
What baffles me is why didn’t they hire the RUclipsrs that are legit voice actors? Like Jelloapocalypse, Stamper, Rice Pirate, hell even Chris and Zach’s re good at voices
Who did the audio for the game? Keemstar's lines are suppose to be coming through a radio, and sound as though he is in the room with the other characters.
We live in a world where a fan game can be officially sold on a platform made by the company who created the property said fan game is based on. What a time to be alive indeed.
I remember getting a friend request from the director, but he never followed up on it, he must have been waiting for me to message him first. I was about to, but after looking into the project I just stayed quiet AND DODGED A FUCKING BULLET Edit: Forgot to mention I animate with sfm
I think the same thing MAY have happened to me. I think he just added a bunch of people with some connection to sfm. I looked up video of it and it looked horrid. But i don't know if it was this game or some other sfm based half life game, but it probably was this one.
In some scenes it seems added no effects (reverb, etc) to make the dialogue sound like it is actually spoken by those characters in the rooms they're in. They just slapped it the plain audio they received.
Maddin1313 yes I agree. Which is why I had to go back a few times because I didn't pay attention if Alex was talking in the video or the game. Tutorials online can drastically improve this
So, in other words, they hired a handful of RUclipsrs as a publicity stunt, then proceeded to fart out a shameless, half-arsed interpretation of someone else's property?
The Asian guy's character model looks like something someone who had never seen an Asian person made based on someone else's description on what an Asian person looks like
cicada300 I was actually surprised when IHE said his character is supposed to be Asian, since I thought he looked European. Maybe he looks a little Eurasian (emphasis on maybe) I guess.... If he was of an Iranian/Persian and European mix that is. He really doesn't look much like someone with East Asian ancestry. He did in the concept art though, which makes it a bit weirder. Maybe they decided to scrap this Nick character being an Asian-American when they decided IHE should use his normal English accent instead. And just like how they ended up using both his American and British voice lines, they didn't bother changing his in game character model completely either.
So they have keemstar playing the president, talking over a radio, audio designers, there is this thing called static, Radios have that all the time, and it actually makes it sound decent in the atmosphere, but I don’t know what I expected at this point
well they screwed up the acoustics on most of the audio. the voices should have had a slight delay effect, to give the impression that they're inside a large room.
for someone who lives from giving the mic an oral, Keemostar really has no idea how to speak in front of a mic for audio recording, i keep hearing him spitting to the mic pronouncing "P"s and "B"s
Best part? Do you have any idea how easy it is to add fake radio static to audio? It's like three or four mouse clicks. There's even different types of static audio you can download if you wanted to switch it up a little.
Fucking next level irony haha. Hire a media critic who has a series focusing on bad films to do VO work for your bad game. You couldn't write that kind of perfection.
"My fellow Americans, as your president and commander in chief, it is with a heavy heart that i'm informing you that we have made a strategic decision to surrender to the alien invaders known as the Combine." cries
The thing is, having RUclipsrs voice-acting in a game can work even if it's not tongue-in-cheek. Pinstripe and Bendy and the Ink Machine are great examples of this. The difference between those games and Hunt Down the Freeman is that those voice actors were actually given direction and good material, and in some cases were already pretty decent at voice-acting or were given characters that meshed with their vocal style.
@IHE, I'm making this game "Cool Cat Saves the Day". It's a First Person shooter where you fight haters and call in copyright strikes. I was wondering if you would voice the antagonist named Fair Criticism.
Dottem 03 That's an insult to animators like Winglet. It's also an insult to some of the talent here on RUclips who were contacted to contribute to the game and have done much better work in the past. Several them have said that they still haven't gotten paid.
Im 30 sec in the video, already I am digging this way of doing your commentary man it adds alot to what's already amazing. Just abit of feedback; rather a comment that isn't just obnoxious tourettes-like stuff, reminding people they were first or something else filled with original, quality humor lol Keep it up Alex
You did some VO for my 2nd year documentary project! The history of the Berlin Wall, you really helped out and did a great job, really appreciated it too!
Yes of course a British dude with the most monotone voice is clearly the best voice actor for an Asian American guy who probably shows some emotion. Also who in their right mind would think that hiring keemstar was a good idea.
Why am I like this? Help well, it doesnt sound that bad. He doesnt really have any political experience, so other government officials would do the work for him?
Something else that gets me, is that none of the character models are even slightly consistent. Some faces actually look ok, like the dude with the scars. Then you have the blond woman that looks like they forgot to give her any kind of proper texture or normal map. Mixed in with models ripped straight from the original HL2, with zero editing to make them match the new ones. If this was free, or like $3, I could say "oh this was *ok* for a first attempt. It's crap, but maybe they'll learn from this and make something better next time." But I can buy full triple A games for $20-25. This is horrendous for that price.
TXF You can buy games like hollow knight, with free DLC, much more intriguing and polished content, more consistent story, BETTER VOICE WORK, and better cutscenes for way less. Fuck AAA games, you can buy cardboard boxes with better design than this
I think the bigger problem with an English person voicing an Asian American is the American part, seeing as his nationality will have a bigger influence on how he sounds than his race. As long as the voice actor can do a convincing job, I don't think ethnicity should be a problem in casting (for voice actors at least).
I was gonna say...the fact IHE is white isn't the issue, It doesn't matter if you're Asian, Hispanic or whatever, it's the nationality that's gonna mostly decide how someone will sound. The fact it's an American character...with an English accent is what's ridiculous. Then again maybe they decided to take the Sean Connery approach?
CheetahGaming thats like saying it's dumb for adults to voice act for children. If they do a good job, its fine. Its only stupid if they don't have the acting skills. The most important thing in voice acting is that the voice fits the character. Whether the ethnicity is the same usually won't matter as long as the actor has the skills to sound the way the character would. This isn't live action, so the voice is the only thing that matters.
Just going to add on - most of the people in my town are Chinese, and I know for a fact that ethnicity is not as important as language and culture when it comes to how people sound. The Chinese kids who were raised in China or speak Mandarin or Cantonese at home sound slightly different because their accent affects their English. The ones who were raised here and only speak English sound just the same as all the other kids who were raised here. I can guarantee if I played a sound clip of my freinds of various races, all raised in the same area and who speak the same first language, no one would be able to tell their races apart because the dialect of English we speak isnt associated with any particular race.

I love how Keemstar announced humanities surrender like it was some juicy gossip.
"Whaaaat is uuuup, America? I'm President Keemstar and let's get rroooight into this surrender announcement!"
I have to think that Keemstar was doing this as a joke. His delivery sounds like he is talking about Nick Crompton leaving Team 10 rather than humanity surrendering to alien invaders.
In fairness, those two things are equally devastating

There's something incredibly weird about hearing IHE's voice coming out of that character.

Hi,
3D Artist (freelancer) for the game here.
(You can see my name in the credits under 3D Artists)
I feel everything you just said in this video. The unorganized mess the production was, the being left in the dark without knowing what the game even looks like, the lack of direction, etc.
I also noticed the red flags but didn't respond to them. I was hopeful that the game was going to be okay because I was reassured that everything was going great.
This is depressing to be honest. I put almost a year into the project and my models don't even look the same when they were imported into the game.

I don't know man, I am rambling. I don't really know what to say.
At least I can say that I worked on a game with you in it and I'm a fan so I'll take what I can get haha.
I too wasn't really paid. I quit the project mid 2017 and a couple of months before the game's release, I was asked to texture some things because they were short on hands or something like that. I agreed to do it only if I was getting paid upfront which I did, but I am owed waaaay more than what I got on that.
I guess I joined the project because I am young to the industry and at my profession in general, and I was picked up and hoped that the game would be great. It sounded very promising and exciting. It was also my first (pretend) job so I was excited for it. I was a beginner in every sense and by working for the game, I was forced to grow as a 3D Artist which I am thankful for.
So it wasn't all bad I guess..

ayyyxel silhouette reveal?
ah yes, maybe I Hate Everything is Rick Astley
Many RUclipsrs offered their voices to the indie game A Hat In Time and it turned out well. It's probably just a matter of direction.
The only youtuber I know of that was in a hat in time was jontron. Who were the other youtubers?
Nalce - Yungtown is The Snatcher, SungWon Cho plays the owls, Smash Bros. announcer Xander Mobus voices The Conductor. Those are the three off the top of my head.
I think a good director would:
1. Cast actors knowing what he wants form them and knowing they can deliver that
2. Work with them to help them get the performance he wants
None of that seems to have happened here.
E3kHatena I didn't even notice who voices the owls but now that you say it, that's totally him!

@@thebackburner79 i know its a quote from the not cool review but..... gotta disagree..
>Need asian american character with an emotive voice
>Have access to YongYea
>Cast IHE anyway
Doesn't even have to be YongYea just anyone American or anyone that can hide their accent
Honestly it doesn't matter the race of the voice actor all they really need is to convey the character
A person with a British accent won't be convincing as an American
Also I think IHE ment that if he's Asian and he's American then it wouldn't make sense for him to have the British accent.
@@ImmaLittlePip a British person can be convening, Tom holland for example his British but I really couldn't tell when I saw him in movies, so just anyone who can hide their accent
ImmaLittlePip the race of the voice actor doesn’t necessarily matter unless you’re implementing their culture in their character somehow. So it would be really beneficial for a well written script if the voice actor could connect on that level
@@spookson5679 Yong actually does voice acting though

To be fair, the killing blow was getting gnomestar to play the president
* inevitable topical joke *
Keem for president it's still a step up
That was the only redeeming quality I've seen so far, that cutscene is hysterical.
Salokin tbh keem has a lot in common with president trump tho.
Would ha e been better to cast him as a news man.
an identity so secret that he blurred the black silhouette of his face
Watch any Jarcast on Jar Media.

"Yeah I haven't got paid yet"
Well you sure aren't gonna get paid now.

Dorian Strobert he requested that the developer not pay him
Dorian Strobert lOrD bEeRuS
Dorian Strobert He reached it, Beerus. He finally reached it.
I feel really really bad for the developers here. I know what it's like to pour your heart and soul into something that was doomed from the start.
Well all your command block stuff was actually fun and inspired, unlike this game. It may have been doomed from the start, but hey I'm sure most of those who found your work and your channel appreciated it. Still something to be proud of.
Jragon // Learn How To Make Minecraft Commands Says the one who make minecraft videos
Ricardo Montania look again buddy, I don't think you know at all what jragon does. They're not just making low effort Minecraft let's plays as you seem to think.
Holy shit I cut myself on that comment
I'm sure that you know absolutely nothing about jragon or Minecraft. Haha very funny isn't it just great to stereotype the entire Minecraft community based off it's younger audiences and more terrible youtubers? What an original joke that has never been made before. I mean, given that Minecraft got so popular, it's clearly a terrible game for only little kids and normies, can't be for big boy hipsters like you. Who has the time for intelligent comments and research when you can spout whatever the current popular opinion is while only judging on the first few RUclips videos you see on the subject, am I right?
Originally based a mapper for this game, I was never credited because I quit early because me and Berkan ( the director ) had a large argument.
But, that argument was the best thing of my life...
He promised $50 per map, never received.
Development was an unorganized mess, none of the developers got a full version of the game until released.
Didn't know the story, didn't know there was even a Discord
Fuck this shit.
ViaLunarMiku were there any original bits you had created for it?
Tako Isha quite so, Berkan ordered me to create an office building, and I have content and templates for the game. But it was never included I guess... It wasn't really finished non the less had much time or effort into it, and when we had the argument I left anyway so whatever
ViaLunarMiku glad you made it out alive
ViaLunarMiku I feel like I HE should see this comment....
So you quitting caused that clusterfuck they call maps?
Damn...
Pfffft Keemstar was supposed to be President in this? He sounds like a smarmy DJ Radio host...not the actual one, just the one they bring in when the real one needs some time off for vacation or sick days.
Seriously his audio is so poorly mastered it's like he recorded it with the exact same setup from one of his streams.
Jrezky By what Alex said in the video, it seems they were just sent lines to record themselves, with their own kit. So Keemstar likely did use the same setup.
They didn’t even put any effects on his voice that’s meant to be over a radio. It’s way too clear, it’s like he’s in the room with them.
They could have just gotten Rice Pirate to do a different voice or something.
Hey Alex can you voice a character in my game I’m currently making? You’ll be voicing an African tribesman, I think you’ll fit the part.

Alol

I wonder how that guy got that face on his scar.
Crowbar to the face
It was supposed to be from a crowbar, but...the way the scars look simply do not make sense.
@@M.J44 They really look like very precisely put scars, Like the most cliche ones trying to be quirky, Eye scar, cheek scar, touching the hair scar, chin scar, when have you not seen those scars inside every other game?
@@oofsong9496 Exactly. They also look just so unnatural.
You mean to tell me that the guy in the HEV suit had impeccable aim to make exact double scars in every spot? I don't think so. (Not directed at you, but whoever's idea it was for the 3d model.)
Because of course bludgeoning someone with a crowbar leaves nice clear slash scars.
Your voice is nice for narration but not for a guy in the military lol
Not all soldiers sound like have throat cancer or gargle thumb tacks.
cykron even still I couldn't imagine IHE doing enemy position call-outs in a combat situation or shouting across a battlefield.
He sounds a lot more like the posh lieutenant in the big tent telling people what to do.
@@jaradtrout140 Alex sounds too white-collar and middle class. He has a voice for BBC.

Your american accent's pretty decent. Bu your voice coming out of that character model is haunting

That is true
Evan Williams yea
It's too recognisable to not break immersion. Not many voice actors have Alex's accent.
The character models look like an hd version of Xavier renagade angel
They spent over 100k on the rights and assets alone, they can't lower it to a around dollar the game to a dollar because even though that'd be a good decision, that would be them accepting that they've just lost well over 100k dollars.
Bronzewarrior source? Did they really spend 100k on this
That's still a very cheap price for the rights and assets of a game franchise like Half-Life
Lowering the price may cause more people to buy it, and could possibly be more profitable then keeping it at the same price.
They can never regain that money so, $1 dollar is the best people could buy it.
Wahhh
Can we also talk about how Keemstar’s voice on a RADIO has ZERO radio filter on it? It just sounds like he’s there speaking. How the fuck do you not notice that??

He's doing a drama alert episode on the combine
Yeah, he sounds more like a radio announcer than any kind of government representative
It's pretty low when Trump sounds more serious than him.
What baffles me is why didn’t they hire the RUclipsrs that are legit voice actors? Like Jelloapocalypse, Stamper, Rice Pirate, hell even Chris and Zach’s re good at voices
UnlimitedEdge rice pirate voices the main protagonist
Jello might of not been a good choice because he’s more of a comedian voice actor than a serious guy.

Who did the audio for the game? Keemstar's lines are suppose to be coming through a radio, and sound as though he is in the room with the other characters.
no, it sounds like the characters are watching Dramaalert.
Doesn’t help that Keemstar is doing a terrible JFK impersonation

In some scenes it seems added no effects (reverb, etc) to make the dialogue sound like it is actually spoken by those characters in the rooms they're in. They just slapped it the plain audio they received.
Maddin1313 yes I agree. Which is why I had to go back a few times because I didn't pay attention if Alex was talking in the video or the game. Tutorials online can drastically improve this

So, in other words, they hired a handful of RUclipsrs as a publicity stunt, then proceeded to fart out a shameless, half-arsed interpretation of someone else's property?
The Asian guy's character model looks like something someone who had never seen an Asian person made based on someone else's description on what an Asian person looks like
He looks like a young Southern European white guy. It doesn't look Asian in any way.
The model doesn't, but paper he showed looks more Asian.
cicada300 I was actually surprised when IHE said his character is supposed to be Asian, since I thought he looked European. Maybe he looks a little Eurasian (emphasis on maybe) I guess.... If he was of an Iranian/Persian and European mix that is. He really doesn't look much like someone with East Asian ancestry.
He did in the concept art though, which makes it a bit weirder. Maybe they decided to scrap this Nick character being an Asian-American when they decided IHE should use his normal English accent instead. And just like how they ended up using both his American and British voice lines, they didn't bother changing his in game character model completely either.

Agreed!
So they have keemstar playing the president, talking over a radio, audio designers, there is this thing called static, Radios have that all the time, and it actually makes it sound decent in the atmosphere, but I don’t know what I expected at this point
the radio designers were not told there was a radio or where the voices were being used.
Germy Forev that doesn’t even surprise me at this point
well they screwed up the acoustics on most of the audio. the voices should have had a slight delay effect, to give the impression that they're inside a large room.
for someone who lives from giving the mic an oral, Keemostar really has no idea how to speak in front of a mic for audio recording, i keep hearing him spitting to the mic pronouncing "P"s and "B"s
Best part? Do you have any idea how easy it is to add fake radio static to audio? It's like three or four mouse clicks. There's even different types of static audio you can download if you wanted to switch it up a little.
It's unsettling to actually see a person speak from his mouth and not his crotch.
it feels threatening
Amelia Why isn't this top comment
You know when your game has fucked up when IHE makes a video about it in less than a week or two.
What's it been four days?
Pil Grimm No, you know you fucked up when you hired him and he still happily shits on it in a few days.
Fucking next level irony haha. Hire a media critic who has a series focusing on bad films to do VO work for your bad game. You couldn't write that kind of perfection.
J Venom obviously this was the whole point of the game
you can tell hes the main character by his epuc scars

Everyone is covered in scars.

And everyone knows the man with scars is always the main characters

This comment and its replies are awesome.
The thing is, having RUclipsrs voice-acting in a game can work even if it's not tongue-in-cheek. Pinstripe and Bendy and the Ink Machine are great examples of this. The difference between those games and Hunt Down the Freeman is that those voice actors were actually given direction and good material, and in some cases were already pretty decent at voice-acting or were given characters that meshed with their vocal style.
In pinstripe, felix and sean's characters are pretty loose to the plot so they can just be their own quirky selves.
That's not Alex, that's Rick Astley
Alex Haines same person

Dottem 03 That's an insult to animators like Winglet. It's also an insult to some of the talent here on RUclips who were contacted to contribute to the game and have done much better work in the past. Several them have said that they still haven't gotten paid.

@Drogon not at all

Yes of course a British dude with the most monotone voice is clearly the best voice actor for an Asian American guy who probably shows some emotion.
Also who in their right mind would think that hiring keemstar was a good idea.
HelenDaGR8 official kids love killer keem
I am not sure kids would play this game though.
James Duncan Because they feel mature when their god keemstar calls other people's fanbases childish.
That name alone makes me see so much red.
HelenDaGR8 official if he was playing a serious low emotion British character that’d make so much more sense
I have no idea who Keemstar is, but it doesn't sound like he's making the announcement with a "heavy heart". He sounds positively thrilled.
Shirshanya Roy ruclips.net/video/-o3TfHjj_e4/видео.html This is how I found out who Keemstar was.
Oh boy are you in for a story.
Adam Sandler same
because he's not a voice actor. And he should never be cast as one.
Pure Cringe -- He's not even competent. And he should never be in a position that requires it.
President Keemstar... Oh my god. I don't know whether to laugh or be utterly terrified by that scenario.
A mix of both.
Well I mean, there's already a stark raving loony as the president in real life. So why not imitate, real life?
gotta point
Abbie Fogarty Boo, low hanging fruit.
Up your bait game.
Why am I like this? Help well, it doesnt sound that bad. He doesnt really have any political experience, so other government officials would do the work for him?
Something else that gets me, is that none of the character models are even slightly consistent. Some faces actually look ok, like the dude with the scars. Then you have the blond woman that looks like they forgot to give her any kind of proper texture or normal map. Mixed in with models ripped straight from the original HL2, with zero editing to make them match the new ones.
If this was free, or like $3, I could say "oh this was *ok* for a first attempt. It's crap, but maybe they'll learn from this and make something better next time." But I can buy full triple A games for $20-25. This is horrendous for that price.
That's what happens when all your art assets are pulled from different places. Your visual aesthetic is an inconsistent mess.
On top of that, Mitchell's face looks like he's got caked on makeup
A strange amalgamation of assets from many different places, pasted in a game like a Frankenstein creation.
TXF You can buy games like hollow knight, with free DLC, much more intriguing and polished content, more consistent story, BETTER VOICE WORK, and better cutscenes for way less. Fuck AAA games, you can buy cardboard boxes with better design than this

I think the bigger problem with an English person voicing an Asian American is the American part, seeing as his nationality will have a bigger influence on how he sounds than his race. As long as the voice actor can do a convincing job, I don't think ethnicity should be a problem in casting (for voice actors at least).
I was gonna say...the fact IHE is white isn't the issue, It doesn't matter if you're Asian, Hispanic or whatever, it's the nationality that's gonna mostly decide how someone will sound.
The fact it's an American character...with an English accent is what's ridiculous.
Then again maybe they decided to take the Sean Connery approach?
MrStig691 it can, but not in every case. No one can tell by the sound of my voice that I'm black. My race has nothing at all to do with how I sound.
he is asian, not british... thats that, I couldn't care if morgan freeman voice acted it, its stupid
CheetahGaming thats like saying it's dumb for adults to voice act for children. If they do a good job, its fine. Its only stupid if they don't have the acting skills. The most important thing in voice acting is that the voice fits the character. Whether the ethnicity is the same usually won't matter as long as the actor has the skills to sound the way the character would. This isn't live action, so the voice is the only thing that matters.
Just going to add on - most of the people in my town are Chinese, and I know for a fact that ethnicity is not as important as language and culture when it comes to how people sound. The Chinese kids who were raised in China or speak Mandarin or Cantonese at home sound slightly different because their accent affects their English. The ones who were raised here and only speak English sound just the same as all the other kids who were raised here. I can guarantee if I played a sound clip of my freinds of various races, all raised in the same area and who speak the same first language, no one would be able to tell their races apart because the dialect of English we speak isnt associated with any particular race.
