This week on Some Patches Required, Our intrepid hosts tackle a slightly out-of-date topic that sends them down a rabbit hole that may just take them a few months to get out of.* Of course, the inciting incident is the controversy surrounding Bayonetta 3 and the voice actress who claimed that Platinum Games offered her a paltry sum to reprise her iconic role.
The aforementioned rabbit hole is a deep dive into how voice actors are paid throughout the industry, as well as an evaluation of how we quantify value in game development. There's also an important announcement towards the end, so make sure to stick around for the whole show.
Please, enjoy.
