Why are we hiring youtubers?

[mods twist his balls]

Can't believe you guys are hiring youtubers to voice characters. Thought Larian was an AAA company. Get PhilosopyTube out of the game plz, this is a serious game. What's next, MrBeast?

Abigail Thorn has 11 acting gigs to her name so far. This isn't her first acting job.

That's not much compared to your run of the mill voice actor. I'd rather have Larian give VA newbies a chance than use youtubers to build hype

Most voice actors have been in more things than Daniel Day-Lewis, but I wouldn't exactly complain if Larian got him.

Really annoying character. Just had the urge to throw my headphone,smash keyboard & punch the screen not necessarily in that order.

I think having Abigail in there is going to be a great addition. She's very well spoken and can articulate well. Plus she's rather known for her acting prowess. She's technically a newbie to voice acting, though. So your comment makes little sense.

Jennifer English, who voices Shadowheart, is only credited for half as many jobs as Abigail.
Guess they shouldn't have hired her either then.

I also love she can explain complex philosophy topics in an approachable and entertaining manner. I would be so amused if she had been hired to play a character who explains Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit in the game. Alas, this will not come to be.

honestly I would enjoy Rhykker as a voice actor in the game, so I'm fine with youtubers being hired for voices, he got an amazing voice imo.

One's a VA, the other is a youtuber.

If they can voice act, who cares.

They can't voice act. They're youtubers not voice actors.

There's no difference.

Make a button that disables youtube/twitch content, Larian. Thank you. I like my RPGs youtuber-free

No. Cope.

[EricHVela]

What is the criteria for someone being a VA versus a YTer if they can't be both?

(Seen plenty of VAs who are also YTers.)

I know it shouldn't and it doesn't really ruin my day or the game for me, but somewhere in my tiny little brain it does nag me when streamers or whatever finagle their way in and get these parts.

streamers ruin everything they touch. Obnoxious.

[NeeLot]

Wait, do we qualify Matt Mercer as a youtuber/Twitch streamer?

[Raeyzej]

Just slay mr thorn in game and move on. EZ. Same with cohh or whomever else. Don't have to leave any characters in game you don't want to. They've made every NPC slayable.
