There's such a noticeable difference in quality between the people who are seasoned voice actors, versus what Megan Fox is doing. Not just her too, but some actors in general no matter how great they are in movies, just sometimes doesn't translate well in games. Like literally everyone in that awful Crime Boss Rockay City game lol, or even Ronda Rousey in MK 11. Professional voice actors deserve so much more credit for their performances.
Keith David as The Arbiter and Spawn...Arnold Swartzenegger as The Terminator, Sylverster Stallone as Rambo (All in MK11), those are exceptions to this rule. It can be done...just have to get the right persons.
@@juliobrian4757The Terminator in MK11 was voiced by another person that Arnold chose himself (he didn't had time to go to the studio to record his character lines).
@@juliobrian4757 Well when you pick actors that can act... it generally helps. It's not like Megan Fox ever gave a great performance. Megan Fox's entire thing is just being eye candy, but as a voice actor for an animated character, I don't know why anyone would think she brings anything useful to the table.
People say they can’t quite pinpoint what exactly is wrong with her acting, but I can tell you after taking a speech class in art school, my theory is that her inflection is just completely f*cked. When presenters (or actors) want to make their speech sound authentic but believable, they add a certain amount of inflection that erases the “script reading monotone” from their voice. Whoever directed Megan either completely disregarded/overestimated her acting range or this was completely intentional. The reason everyone else sounds normal is because they’re playing characters. Megan sounds bad because she’s just reading her lines. If you want an example, just listen to Ashrah’s part again
It also seems like she didn't read any of the dialogue before delivering her lines. If she had some context, then she would know how and where to use inflection. I especially noticed this when she says, "We can't help what we are". It's delivered totally wrong.
So you are telling me people criticise without knowing exactly what's wrong? How rare does that happen? /s From my point of view, there's no problem with her voice. What's the problem for them, exactly? Monotonous voice? What's her voice should be like, then? Do people know Nitara so well they are protective of her attributes? I would think no. She's a very old character that was never that significant, nothing about her voice was, for sure. This whole drama is cringe.
To be fair, it could be her first time voice acting but then again it shouldn't be hard for her since she played in quite a few movies. Honestly I feel like they should've hired Laura Bailey (voice actress who did Rayne in Bloodrayne, Helena in RE6, Abby in Last of Us Part 2, many more) cuz that badass actress can voice act EXTREMELY well!
That is so true. And about Megan, I think the first time was for a Transformers videogame, she also has an interview where it shows some clips of her doing the voice acting. But anyway, they definitely could have and should have hired someone else for the voice.
Okay, I’m starting to see what everyone’s talking about. In the second clip, it’s like she forgot Ashrah just cut her arm open, PUT EFFORT INTO YOUR ACTING MEGAN!!!!!!!!!
This happens almost every time there's a stunt casting of a big name as a voice actor, including in MK11. Voice acting should be left to actual voice actors.
GTA: Vice City has a dozen big names that are great -- Burt Reynolds, Lee Majors (well he was big in the '70s), Luis Guzman, Philip Michael Thomas (of Miami Vice), William Fichtner, Debbie Harry, Ray Liotta, off the top of my head.
You know what, at least Rhonda Rousey tried. She wasn't a professional actor, and it showed, but at least she gave a shit and seemed to genuinely enjoy being in an MK game.
@@adlilzafri2322 Because they weren't bad. But a few articles were released years later, specifically after the release of Vice City, were a Rockstar dev was discussing just how bad it was working with Ray Liotta and his entire attitude throughout the process up until a point where they were actually squaring off with each other. Celebrity ego's are hard to manage and more often than not more trouble than they are worth.
It reminds me of when they got a huge rock celebrity to dub Cassie for the MKX Brazilian dub, With quite the same results. It was so bad they had to update the game to replace Cassie's voice clips, thankfully with an experienced VA.
No more celebrities in video game! They’re so many skilled voice actors/actresses who are passionate about video games. They should be getting these opportunities and not some out of touch celeb that can’t even navigate a main menu.

If you couldn't tell whats wrong look at ashrah voice the voice actor put her heart into it she wasn't just reading the lines. Megan was and its funny because when they did the trailer for nitara she said the she feels like she is nitara when she is doing the lines but put no heart into it.
Judging from comments, she has a separate actor as Christina Vee. I find it real funny that there's also Yuri Lowenthal as Smoke, both VA's were already voicing characters from a fighting game. It's a small world.
This reflects on MK1 as a whole, it shows that there was no quality control at all in any aspect of the game. Bad voices, major obvious bugs, missing features like: no krossplay, unable to tag moves on screen etc. They could have easily got her to redo the lines.
her voice acting, you can tell she's too embarrassed to overact. you kind of have to do that when you're voice acting compared to live acting. she should have watched other voice actors who do their jobs really well, actually see them doing the lines, you always have to look a little ridiculous irl when you deliver most of your lines. the magic happens with the animation what ive noticed is a common thing; every voice actor can translate to live acting but not every live actor can translate to voice acting unfortunately.

Going back through watching Tales of Berseria's Velvet scenes and realizing "we could've had that Nitara instead..." just makes the whole thing that much more frustrating.
yeah its weird, when sub zero talks, it is like it's him i am watching. When Megan fox talks - its like i am listening to Megan Fox the actress, reading out a script somewhere in a room - it destroys the immersion...
What's happening here is usually that they hire the voice cast, have them come in to do the readings, and instead of bringing them back to rehearse and act the lines, they just use the reading audio. Usually this happens when either the VA's time gets cut from the budget or the VA becomes unavailable for some reason. Oftentimes one or both of these is the result of a writing change post-recording.
She reads Nitara's lines like she is reading a news article.
😂

@@StinkySlinky1218At least they give you alternate skins for sub zero and Sonya blade that changes their voices in mk11. Nitara doesn’t even have a fucking alternate skin that replaces Megan’s performance
It's giving
"Mother, you are alive!"
"Too bad YOU... will DIE" 😂
And even that had more emotion lol
We need a voice actress to do it properly and dub over it
Ya know, it feels nice when you can confidently say "I can do better". This has been a little ego boost for me, thanks Megan!
Godamnit even google assist has more life in the voice lol
“We did 20 takes and THAT was the best one.”
Oh my God
Director forgot to tell her to "act", they must've been big fans.
What's even more disrespectful is that her battle noises are done by one of the best VA's in the business. Christina could easily do her whole voice
Going back through watching Tales of Berseria's Velvet scenes and realizing "we could've had that Nitara instead..." just makes the whole thing that much more frustrating.
I for one can’t believe Megan Fox, a Spike Video Game Award winner for Best Performance by a Human Female, would deliver such a performance.
yeah its weird, when sub zero talks, it is like it's him i am watching. When Megan fox talks - its like i am listening to Megan Fox the actress, reading out a script somewhere in a room - it destroys the immersion...
What's happening here is usually that they hire the voice cast, have them come in to do the readings, and instead of bringing them back to rehearse and act the lines, they just use the reading audio.
Usually this happens when either the VA's time gets cut from the budget or the VA becomes unavailable for some reason. Oftentimes one or both of these is the result of a writing change post-recording.
PC modders on their way to make an AI voice mod for Nitara.
"That Blades Enchanted" is going in the meme repertoire for me me so stupid.
