Why got Chloe a new voice ?

[BeefKrieger]

Why did they change the voice, when the original voice actor for her is too in the development team ??? I dont get it...

[Ogami]

Either she was too expensive to hire ( Ashley Burch has become REALLY popular over the last few years), she does not have enough time to voice the character ( also possible, since she has like 8 current projects to voice according to her) or they just wanted to try someone else.
Pick your choice.

Voice acting is pretty important in a game like this, it will be hard to let it live up to anything without the authentic voices to be honest.

Basically, she could not because of a voice actor strike!

So the new person is a dirty non-unionsed scab?

At least Ashley is still writing for them.

That makes me a little bit angry (the whole strike-thing)...but we´ll see how Rihanna DeVries does her job. If she lives up to Ashly´s performance I´m fine with it.

That's daft. After all this time, they couldn't just wait for the strike to resolve?

Just saw a 10-15 min gameplay on E3 and heard many conversation with Chloe and Rachel. It's not the same thing. :( :( :(

Here it is. You can more clearly hear Chloe and Rachel speak starting at 15:44.
And yeah, she sounds totally different.

Here's full in game audio without commentary if anyone's interested.

To me Chloe here speaks slower (perhaps everyone in game as well) and sounds a bit deeper.
It'd be totes impossible for anyone to capture Ashly's Chloe, and I think the new voice actor does have somewhat Chloe's vibe even though still need to get used to it.
I do hope Hannah Telle isn't involved with this strike and could make a return with Ashly in Farewell episode.

In addition Before the Storm will be done by a different studio as I read. Dontnod is working on their own LiS Sequel/Prequel whatever.
So, no Ashley and not DontNod for this prequel. Does it make sense at all? At all?
Sounds like a perfect plan to me to destroy a perfectly fine game...
Like this idea they had for Ghost in The Shell: "Hey let's do a life remake for one of the most brilliant Animes in history. And, oh, yes, let it Rupert Sanders do."

The voice actor of Chloe write the dialouges for Chloe but dont give her the voice because of a VA Strike or something. They will dont screw it up :p
