Maybe Lester wasn't available. And the voice was already there; also, it could've been that the new guy is cheaper to mocap than Lester Speight. |
I don't know anything about that but there is no reason for Kojima to pay two guys when he'd prefer to have the same guy do both so the voice work and expressions can match perfectly and he can get a top notch actor to boot.
The whole thing is kind of silly, to be honest. It's a business. No one has a life-time contract to play the same role forever. Kojima wanted someone else so he went out and got someone who did an excellent job. Period, end of story. Professionals should be professional.
