Wait. I played part of this game (I know, I know… one day I’ll return…) a couple years ago. I remember the voice acting being amazing. But was I hearing the “old” voices or new?
When and why did they change it? In what way?
I probably should finish that game though. I did enjoy it. Just got distracted from it and never returned (happens a lot)
They went back and recorded voice acting for everything, previously only parts of some conversations were voice acted. Presumably they couldn’t get all the actors back (and for a few characters, probably wanted real voice actors instead of podcasters if they’re going to voice everything)
iirc, never played it myself, but i remember a contemporaneous chapo ep will saying they agreed to do the voices but don’t think they ever got paid for it, and then i guess it was winning all these awards. Since then the art house/collective that made the game apprently became more aligned with or co-opted by capital. I think someone turned it into a more straightforward moneymaking venture now. Maybe afterward they just hire professional voice actors to rerecord so it’s not a business headache.
