wow fuck sag-aftra for screwing over video game voice actors

#sag-aftra #vas talking about forming their own union and i hope they do #because holy shit #sag-aftra didn't even just approve va ai voice use in video games #they also went so far as to fucking partner with an ai business (replica) #and claimed that they consulted vas about it but literally every video game va around is saying that they absolutely were NOT consulted #we may be looking at a va strike (current discussion is whether to strike or to just form a separate union for video game vas) #(because of how they are continually screwed over by the union) #look sag-aftra has done a lot of good for film/tv actors #i'm not going to deny that #super super important stuff like establishing work conditions and child actor's rights and protections against abuse #both on set and in audition rooms #but damn they really do keep screwing over video game vas
