Considering how much games like Zelda that have no voice actors sell and many games with VA bomb, how exactly do you gauge how much worthy is the work of each VA? Can you count how many copies were sold because of that person work and how much of the cut he would deserve? |
And there are so many games with voice actors that sell just as well like The Last Of Us with Joel and Ellie, Uncharted with Nathan Drake ,Horizon Zero Dawn with Aloy or Telltales Walking Dead with Clementine and Lee and I couldn't imagine any of these games doing as well with out the amazing voice work that was put into them. Plus you can't act like there haven't been games without voice actors that haven't bombed.
I mean a lot of people who played the walking dead season 1 were so emotinally connected to Lee and Clem that they admited to tearing up at the end and a lot of that was due to the performances of Dave Fennoy and Melissa Hutchison I couldn't imagine a zelda scenario working for that game. The same goes for the relationship with Joel and Ellie in The Last Of Us the voice acting there really helped the player to become attached to the characters and again a zelda like approach couldn't work there.
