lol, they actually think they matter:

I’m just not excited for the Rey sequel movie. Mostly because Daisy herself has said she was done as Rey and I didn’t like the sequel movies. Not a lot of people did. It’s so weird they are moving forward with that.

Very excited for Ashoka though. This is the Star Wars people have been waiting for. That and Andor which…

Why are you being reasonable on the internet? ;)

But still, many found it strange that just a few days ago, Nintendo would share a video about a bowling range in Breath of the Wild’s Hyrule rather than take the opportunity to drum up excitement for its sequel, which has remained remarkably shrouded in secrecy even two months before its planned release.

*boots up Bayonetta 3*

20 hours of work for 15000 dollars is 750 dollars per hour. Please, tell me again why this person is so hard done by because they were offered a piddly little sum of 750 dollars per hour for 20 hours work.

Imran Khan did a really great public writeup about this whole mess on his Patreon which is much more incisive and in depth than anything Kotaku has bothered with, which I really recommend everyone interested in this story read. In it he speculates that Taylor’s $450K number came from her looking all the games up on…

She’s also not the only person voicing the character. The Japanese VA for Bayonetta came back for the third game

The devs—who work at the actual company and make most of the actual product—deserve most of the profits.

Yeah, this one’s definitely on Taylor. She, intentionally or not, led everyone to believe that Platinum/Nintendo were only paying her $4K for all voice work of the main character. According to her latest comments, she got paid 3000£ for the first game, so $15k is actually a nice improvement, I think (even accounting…

Yeah, per bloomberg which latter corroborated by at least 2 other newsgroup.

First thing first, Why she is trying to inflate Bayonetta franchise number? where that 450 million comes from?

Based on the report, the later offer was $4000 for a cameo/guest appearance, not as the lead.

This is the part where I hope someone can do some investigative journalism to get to the bottom of this.

So she turned down $15k for 20 hours of work? I’d love to make $750 an hour. Asking for $100k+ seems kind of absurd? Like, that’s how much a programmer would make working on the game for at least 40 hours a week for a year. She’s not a big Hollywood actor being cast for a movie. Her impact on the game’s commercial…

This baseless speculation needs to die. She had to audition for Bayonetta 3. If they wanted to get rid of her they would have just turned her down in the audition rather than do a lowball. People acting like they lowballed her to get rid of her have zero evidence that this is true and it doesn’t make sense given the…

Yeah, let’s pay the disingenuous shakedown artist, because we know she’s good for her word!

They offered three times the union rate, and she demanded six figures plus residuals. Platinum were right to say no.

Why the fuck should they pay her twice their original offer for her to do the work and 8x what she lied and claimed they offered her to try and get her to not lie?

Luke, you’ve gotta be kidding me. Jason’s reporting deserves more than a tiny blurb at the bottom of this article, and you shouldn’t even be quoting Taylor at this point. You of all people know the significance of Jason’s article on this story and what it means for Taylor’s original statements. Please stop amplifying…
