You gotta be kidding me po. Real acting > voice acting. With va’s all the acting except the speech is already done for you, how the fuck is that harder?
Maybe you think va is difficult because most people who make movies/series don’t really care for the va’s and just use the shittiest ones they can find. The shit is way easier than real acting
He’s talking about trying to portray the emotion through something that you aren’t i took theater for a year and a half. Yes real acting a bit more demanding. But the thing is with real acting, when you have to act angry, you actually gotta do some motions and shit so you can simulate being mad. In VA you have to put all that emotion to match the character on screen, which is why if you watch recording sessoins even the VA’s sometimes are still moving around and doing shit as though they are being filmed for a movie, because it’s not as simple as standing in a booth and raising your voice or fake crying.
There’s a reason why there’s shit like bad dubs and good dubs, because there’s skill/talent required
Oh I know what you mean. Those va’s are utter shit. A good va could be moving around angrily if he’s any good.
But like you said, doing that same scene in real life is a whole nother level. You actually have to portray that anger (or fear or whatever emotion) and actually look (I mean really look it, its all in the eyes) like you are about to hurt someone. Doing it va style is just talking into a mic angry. Doing it in real life with body language and looking that person in the eyes and adjusting your sound and movements to the person you’re facing is a whole nother ordeal.
If you can’t act you probably can’t do va. If you are a good actor, va is even easier.
Acting is not hard BTW, I know crack heads that are better actors than 90% of Hollywood. I mean the crazy crack heads, crack head kings, the ones other crack heads bow down to and dealers give their shit to for free because they’re scared of the crack head. You know, the crackheads the dealers flee from (ex kickbkxers and criminals turned fiend). Even low tier crack heads can be damn good actors. Outperforming actual actors who’s job is acting.
Then again the crack head acting like he’ll put a knife between your ribs if you don’t listen will probably actually put a knife between your ribs, that’s pretty damn real acting. (Just joking here, real joke but still joke).
P.s. of all the junkies crack heads do seem like the best actors. A good crackhead actor is equal to a great actor.
This was an underdog of E3, I saw almost no coverage of it on streams. Platinum Games at this point are one of the best at what they do. I’m looking forward to this because I didn’t like the Cybertron games and I’ve never played a decent Transformers game. I DID play that one game on the PS2 that was pretty decent but I was a little kid so my expectations were a lot lower…
The one thing I thought about with this game is the lack of Wii-U support. It just seems that if they are developing for last gen, why would Activision miss that opportunity.
Note the Immobilizer device (from the episode of the same name) at 37 sec. Nice that they are putting some minor but cool references from the show
The voice acting is not bad considering its not his original G1 actor Chris Latta.
(Sorry that its Facebook , but I was able to watch it w/o logging in.)
A lot of the moves look the same with the exception of the power up motion and some of BB’s stuff. I am just gonna play with Prime anyway so what matter is it LOL. I want that trailer smash back in the game tho
