Alright mates,
Here's the next one
I'm ill again. lol. Another cold. It's just one thing after another at the moment. Really irritating. I don't remember getting ill at all during the entire pandemic. Now I'm ill every bloody 5 minutes. But i'm determined to power through it this time because it's way too close to Christmas to faff about and delay and all that sorta stuff
I reckon I can probably squeeze out a few more episodes before winding down for the holidays. I know it's only the 1st today but this episode won't go out publicly until the 12th so... technically only need to make one more and that's pre-Christmas uploads sorted
In other news... anyone play the Yakuza games? I only just realised that the bloke that's doing the English dub for Kiryu in Infinite Wealth (and possibly Gaiden?) is also a YouTuber. I feel bad for him because there's been some backlash to his performance in some clips that he put out. But also - He's kinda handled it like a YouTuber. lol. Blocking everyone and having a strop. It's an iconic role... so there's always gonna be critics. Butt... the voice is a bit jarring to be fair. Considering previous English dubs gave him a ridiculously deep voice. And now he sounds a little bit... goober-ish. lol
Honestly tho - I don't wanna be a dick about it. I don't like commenting on VA performances and stuff like that. Although the way he's handled it pisses me off to be fair. It's not a good look and I wouldn't be surprised if Sega decides to NEVER EVER hire YouTubers for Voice Acting again. So that's great. It's like this whole 'fashion magazines are starting to use AI models' thing. I don't agree with it. I think it's sad that it's probably going to become industry standard very quickly. But... it doesn't surprise me. Because a large number of influencers have their heads firmly shoved up their own arses
Anywho - Thanks, as always, for your support. Tis very much appreciated. And I'll see ya in the next Early Access post. Cheers mates!
