That would be really lame if he's not the VA for Homelander... Definitely bummed about that, if it's true!

Thank the lord.

Don't dumb down the show by spreading the exclusivity.
He won't feel exclusive anymore if he's everywhere.

Imagine spending the money to get Megan Fox to do one of the worst performances in AAA game in recent memory but not spending the money to get the Homelander guy to play Homelander

Which is doubly sad when this sorta implies that John Cena will voice Peacemaker by not including him in the topic.

It's not fair to just put it on the Mk guys. Especially when we don't know the specifics of what went down. What's more likely that they weren't willing to pay him well when they got Megan Fox, Jean Claude Vann Damme, John Cena, and JK Simmons. Or that Anthony Starr a) didn't want to do voice work on a game or b) wanted more than JK Simmons and John Cena?

I'm sure they wanted him in the game as much as we do.

I don’t understand why base the model off the TV show then and not make it more comic like

Same goes for John Cena if he doesn’t voice Peacemaker, give him more of a comic book look

Because like it or not these are the most popular versions of those characters.

So glad I didn't buy this garbage. Ridiculous.

These dlc character packs are one of the reasons I no longer buy fighting games at or near launch. I don't know why wants to play as ghost face but I am curious to see how T-1000 plays as he is my favorite Terminator.

I agree. I wish the product was a final product with little fixes after release. This DLC has become something that is annoying. I'm not even sure what I'm paying for these days. Is it a subscription? Is it for a final product? Will the unfinished product be completed? Do I pay for an unfinished product and opt to pay more for the remaining product? These are not questions customers should be asking. It should be clear at the point of sale what we get. Seasons pass or time-based passes that does not spell out what we get is just "let me see whatever I, the developer, feel is worth the cost or can make me more money.. how do I make customers feel is worth a pass and pay for it". The problem is lack of transparency. I feel at times that these characters were already created but held back, out of capitalistic purposes. Transparency is important when little government regulation exist. Who is to say what was created when or how much effort was put in.

I won't purchase anything over $40 (use to be $30) for complete edition. Even at that price, the developers are figuring out ways to make a customer pay for DLC or for incomplete editions while making it look like complete editions. This trickery is to be called out on.

I used to jump at the ability to purchase fighting games day 1....the DLC is so predatory that I normally no longer even play fighting games unless they under 10 bucks for the story.

That's a whole lot of DLC buying.

Homelander just feels too slow but the voice actor does a great job portraying Anthony's star version
