Why do they need motion capture for a talking cube?
there was some sag-aftra mandate about video game characters needing to have their acting done by someone of the same race so they found a square to do it
>>740214226surely that can't be real.
>retards who don't understand game development posting their retarded on thisTiring!
>>740214226ENOUGH with the nepo babies
>>740214226Animating game models by hand is a long lost art.

>>740214391Why didn’t valve need to motion capture someone to play cube in Portal?
>>740214226Serious answer: It's for the other actors to look at / interact with. Like when Ian McClellan had tennis balls with faces taped to them instead of hobbits.
>>740214226There's too much mocap in games.
>>740214226>how to spend 100 millions in a mid game ?>pay an actor 50K to play the role of a cube of course
>>740214735Good god it's like watching a machine made of flesh. The uncanny horror.
>>740214226
>>740214391I need to use expensive tech and a real celebrity to animate this cube that needs 3 edge loops and 2 bonesYou are objectively retarded.>BUT THEY WANT TO HAVE IT SO THE PEOPLE KNOW WHERE IN THE SCENE IT ISSo use some intern or something not the expensive celebrity
They did my boy dirty. Why did they have to turn him gay?
>>740214226Humilliation ritualUnironically
>>740215763For cutscenes, they record the dialogue and mocap together with minimal overdubbing. This gives more natural performances (what one might call Soul). So they do need cube guy acting when they record it.
>>740215919>This gives more natural performancesAnon, even if that's true what part of this pile of Dora the Explorer tier slop is "natural" in terms of dialogue?
>>740214226>no will ferrel reprising his frank the tank character
>>740215994Oh, you haven't played either game. That explains it. Go ahead and play them and form your own opinion before trying to discuss them on /v/.
>>740216193>Oh, you haven't played either gameAnon we saw the "gameplay" where the player isn't left to think for themselves for even 5 seconds before they get told what to do. Also since you seem to be a touch illiterate I specified DIALOGUE. DIALOGUE does not require one to play the game. It requires one to use his ears. Being told what to do, where to go and how to do it within 5 seconds of encountering a new sector is Dora the Explorer grade.
>>740215994Are you an ESL? It's so the actors can directly play off and react to each other instead of never meeting once and just recording lines with like a video of the other person.
>>740215919this is the exact opposite of soul
>>740216739>t's so the actors can directly play off and react to each otherThen why does all western AAA slop have the most stilted, unnatural sounding dialogue imaginable?
>>740214316
>>740214735I get they might need reference for motion, but the faces she is making is making me cringe
Atreus, put the witchetty grub on your cock.
>>740214730You're kidding yourself if you don't think he's getting at least $1 million to mo-cap and voice the role. They'd pay some random off the street you've never heard of $50 grand.
>>740215919it's a cube. so they don't need any mo cap you retard.they can just animate the cube traditionally. but modern devs are so retarded they can't even do basic animation anymore.
>>740214226Tax write off
>>740214226I'm so sick of this nepobaby faggot, remember when the RLM crew devoted an entire episode to defending nepotism in Hollywood because they are friends with this retard?
>>740214629That was both funny and sad
Sọy cube
>>740218601>NOOOOOOOOOOO I'M BEING PAID MILLIONS TO SIT IN FRONT OF A CAMERA AND PLAY DRESS UP AND MAKE BELIEVE WHILE READING LINES SOMEONE ELSE WROTE I'M GOING INSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANE PLEASE PETER JACKSON HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWhat a fucking faggot.
>>740218513Retard-kun...
>>740214735Her return to pose/form is impressive. Everything else is tryhard uncanny
>>740218660>I am soulless and have no standards so why isn't everyone else?
>>740214316kek you're alright fagI like Quaid though
>>740218601The romans were right about actors
>>740216797soul is when bad
>>740214735Forced animation incarnate
wot the fack are ya doin Hughie ya look like a right tossa
>>740214438>YOU ARE "CUBE" DEDENDER OF THE POLY-CULE
>>740214226>dance goy dance!That's all it is.
>>740214735I hate how this cringey webm always makes me feel angry and horny at the same time
>>740214226Because it's a "cinematic experience" Aka a movie disguised as a game that will have a "story" difficulty for the journalists where you hold X and forwards to win. And it will get 10/10 from IGN and any and all criticism will be blamed on right wing/ toxic / chud / bots / "so called gamers" And the §oy's will clap and cheer because name they know from other §oy show>And about a year later it will be revealed it "didn't meet expectations" We've saw this script before. It's pretty simple
>>740214226And who's gonna play Rich Evans?
>>740218660He's serious about his craft and is realising just how badly he's sold out.
>>740218689faggot.
>>740219074Did you think the cube was the only character in these cutscenes? Did you not notice the wife or the evil couple?
>>740216910>>740215994You understand GoW games since 2018 are done in a one take?The cube is their so they have both dialogue back and forth and the actors have sight lines for mocap, s in game she is looking at the cube.
Ah yes, yes, I see. "Phranque" is a homophone of "Frank", yes. Very subtle. It sure got a sensible chuckle out of me.
>>740214629Why do you need actors in the first place? Fucking hell i wish we went back to animation by hand with no motion capture and games being voiced by professional programmers, if voiced at all.
>>740219380To make the experience more cinematic, of course. Can't have characters moving unrealistically. It will make people think they're playing a video game for little babies.
>>740216910Because the writers aren't very good at their job
>>740214735wife
>>740219364kek
>>740219283>are done in a one take?But why? That's fucking retarded let alone unimpressive since you can literally do corrections to the animations and the like after the fact since this isn't a real person, it's a 3D model. They're all 3D models.
>>740219559>It will make people think they're playing a video game for little babies.But not the obscene amounts of hand holding that reminds you of Sonic Heroes where no one shut the fuck up. How odd?
>>740214316kek
>>740219852>But whyMore of a gimmick now I guess but it was pure KINO in the 2018 game.Also gives a feel that you are 100% in the action/game unlike games that have loading screens or fade to blacks.
>>740219135do you suck dicks?
