I already miss "Chad" Jason from the second GTA VI trailer. The game would be much more fun with a charismatic Chad as the protagonist with nerd friend than with a mumbling retard next to a strong Latino girl.

Can any (non-millennial) literary nerds tell me why both main characters can't be smart? Are they both never smart because it's just easier to make one dumb and write between the obvious contrasts/stereotypes?

i legit dont understand how they missed so hard on the voice actor. like he is not even amateur level. like they tried to remake arthur and just completely failed. surely they should have realized it and fired him a few weeks in
>>
>>746701276
where where you faggots during trailer 1 and trailer 2? what a dogshit forced """criticism"""
>>
>>746700314
You don't want to play as a pussy whipped faggot? Check your toxic masculinity, chvd
>>
>>746701276
I think he's fine
>>
>>746701276
What's funny are the marketers trying to make you believe that his voice is fine. Like people can't hear how weird and retarded he sounds.
>>
>>746701276
>>746701584
>>746703008
It's because its Troy Baker, and the only voice they could make him do without blowing his cover three years ago. Yes, he deneid it, but what the fuck else is he going to do in the face of NDAs? When RDR2 released, him and Nolan both expressed their interest in working for R*. Troy recently said his best work is still in front of him (despite being in his 50s now). And R*'s motion capture studio is in Calif, so it would make sense. Rockstar used to hire unknowns, but now Hauser is gone and GTA Online had Dr. Dre..
>>
>>746703723
>Rockstar used to hire unknowns
yeah, like James Woods and Samuel L. Jackson
>>
>>746701276
Niko's voice actor was pretty bad with his accent.
They lucked out on RDR2, but Rockstar's games aren't always the best with casting
>>
I had to look up who Troy Baker was. He's just a voice actor not someone famous so I don't get it. Thanks for asking and reading.

gamers weren't ready for the chad jason x nerd cal gay protagonist duo
>>
>>746700314
People should have realized something was off when 'chad' was with some mid latina.
>>
>>746700314
an ex army ranger is more of a chad than someone who fits into modern society
modern society = gay

are you retarded?
jason spent his salad years killing shitskins and niggers and then went home and got himself a mommy to navigate the cuck world of america

Holy chad

>trailer drops
>uh yeah sure maybe?
>is silent for the rest of the time
>>
>>746700314
don't worry op i'm sure once we get to see more of his character he will be much more interesting :)
>>
>>746705941
this but unironically

talking is fucking gay, what are you, women?

>not fitting into this modern tranny world is suddenly being a cuck
quite the opposite you retards
>>
>>746700314
>mumbling retard next to a strong Latino girl.
I guess you've never met a white male / latina couple because that's what they are
>>
>>746706061
yeah a real chad is someone who is a social butterfly and gets along with everyone and is totally adapted to modern society

man, the jews really did a number on you guys
>>
>>746700314
I mean 3D GTAs was never about playing as a chad or a foid. The previous protagonists were all sorts of psychopathic sleazebags or hoodrats. But I would still take a boring generic chad over a pussy whipped mumbling timid beta cuck simp. Even a chad is more of a novelty than a pathetic numale.
>>
>>746706376
>army ranger is a beta cuck simp
what are you then? lol

you know you have the option to dump lucia and go to strip clubs and kill niggers and whores all day? the only thing holding you back is your gay demeanor
>>
>>746700403
Why do you think either of them is smart or not smart?
>>
>>746705941
He has to be a heckin chad like andrew tate! The loudest man in the room is a chad!
>>
>>746700314
reminds me of ben affleck for some reason
>>
>>746706180
I think his point was that white men who aren't retarded don't date latinx women in the first place.
>>
>>746706376
>pussy whipped mumbling timid beta cuck simp.
Did you guys see another extended look or something?
Because in the game we Jason hit like truck and go full Max Payne on those cleaners

Dont forget Ray Liotta and Phil Collins.

>>746703986
Both Red Dead games had excellent voice acting. It's one of the few series I'd put up there with Metal Gear or Deus Ex in terms of VA quality. FFXVI was brilliant too, but the others in the series aren't exactly the best.
>>
>>746707198
try dating white women today, then.
pro-tip: you can't, they're all batshit insane and think they all deserve some doctor supermodel who makes 300k a year

some ppl love crazy bitches, i can deal with that shit, im way more insane and keep her in line
>>
>>746707273
Its people that have never had a gf in their lives trying to complain
>>
>>746703723
>Rockstar used to hire unknowns
Look at the cast list for vice city you utter moron
>>
>>746703723
They would never hire Troy Baker
>>
All complaints about this game so far are superficial. Quite pathetic.
>>
>>746707273
Jason is a passive little cuck bitch who doesn't seem to be in charge in any dialogue.

Complaints about the gameplay and the backflip by gachaslop playing faggots who hate "gun and ball" games are nothing burgers, but the writing does seem pretty bad and not GTA-like compared to previous entries.
>>
>>746709162
Nothing I've seen indicates this. Looks like a beefed up IV and V in almost every regard.
>>
>>746709075
Ok andrew settle down

How so?

>Claude is a chad psychopath that kills his whore girlfriend

>Niko is a chad ex-glowie with a canonically virgin gf
>Johnny is a cuck Jew who has cuck mechanics where you get rewarded for following behind Billy as he takes over your gang, and his gf literally cucks him to death
>Lois is a chad player who's entire personality is smashing women because he's straight, please don't skip our DLC, the protagonist isn't gay
>Franklin is a cuck with a gold digger who talks shit about him leaving the ghetto

In TLOU1 the initial duo Joel and Tess were written in a way that they both seemed intelligent, Joel may have been the muscle but he never felt like an idiot.

They started hiring unknowns after that because they didn't want to work with big egos and didn't want players associating the voices with anyone but the character. This is pretty well known, you should know this, I'm disappointed in you.
>>
>>746700403
they can be smart, but that requires good writing.
you have to understand vidya writing is really, really poor, the best vidya works aren't comparable to even the alright parts of movies/shows or books.

>>746710130
Michael is one of the rare instances of a chad cuck.

The dumb character is a narrative device used to give characters a reason to overexplain things in order to feed information to the audience, that the writer hasn't figured out a way to explain. As writers have become worse over time, you see more and more of these characters pop up.

Is feminism losing or winning?
>>
>>746711940
Everyone still finds them obnoxious and insufferable. It's just that we're also realizing alt-whities are every bit as obnoxious and insufferable; just replace hating straight white men with hating anything that isn't straight white men who act like le heckin based bald human trafficker.
>>
>>746700403
most modern writers grew up on various novel sites where everything follows a handful of tropes to try and grab the attention of established audiences, and they never dropped that behavior.
their creative process starts by writing down which tropes to include.
>>
>>746711940
they are winning, despite what others might tell you
women have more rights, women have more jobs, they are working more, they are also earning more i believe, trad lifestyle or stay at home moms are dropping so women are focusing more on their careers, and so on.

>>746700403
millennial writers are incapable of writing morally grey characters (which means evil actions have to be attributed to stupidity) and are obsessed with "pacing" which usually to them means "insert a quirky joke after every intense sequence."
They also reliably use characters as the sole vehicle for exposition but the reason characters are giving exposition is because a retarded character asked exactly what's going on, because that's simple and easy
it's like that one game that the EU had made that's rendered in the comic book style, I forget the name, but half of the game is
>Haha wait you mean to tell me that we're heckin' going straight into the middle of a frickin' fascist country? The fascist country that doesn't allow you to enjoy music and has friggin fascist cops? That one? Yawn. Wait, how do I unlock my special power again?

It's hard to execute correctly because you need an actually engaging basic plot. CP2077 is almost entirely verbal exposition by characters but works because what's being explained is complicated enough that you as V would never organically uncover it yourself any other way. It's also basically a 1:1 ripoff of Neuromancer so there's a very low risk of the plot being extremely stupid.
Metro 2033 written by millennials would have had Dark Ones checking in on Artyom telepathically saying shit like "Hey A, How ya doin? I'm sensing those friggin nazi weirdos closing in on you!" and Bourbon would have said "Artyom... Take... My special key to the D6... Thank you..." as he died rather than the soft implication that he was just going to kill you when he was done with you.
