Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast141d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine141d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast141d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman141d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

Check the contract before signing anything. Research the company and its revenue/profit when it comes to games. Learn about the developer/producer that was/is known to make hit games that sell and how much voice actors were paid for their services. If you want more, ask.

I'd bet the Mario voice actor made bank during his time as the character, probably read the contract with his lawyer and made money on appearances.

It is rather low for what the game made. But she accepted the offer. Nothing else to be said.

Those were different times. And like the article says, they didn't know Metal Gear Solid would become a huge success.

Even so, the voice acting in MGS1 is one of the best out there.

CrimsonWing69571d ago

But that was a time when dev costs and pay were low, especially with the game industry.

What was the average for salaries and wages back then?

Gabrielmpf571d ago

Kinda odd that you accept the offer and complain later that the pay was low. That's on you.

Profchaos570d ago

I can only think that if games take 5 years or more to develop or ten in some cases the money you signed up for is simply not worth at much by the end of the project.
