If you’ve played video games in the last decade or so then you probably have a favorite voice actor i.e David Hayter, Steve Blum, Troy Baker, Nolan North etc. Well they could soon be going on strike as the actor union SAG-AFTRA is considering voting for a strike that would push for more payments and greater rights for game voice actors. It's proposing that these performers should get bonuses every time a game sells 2 million copies, and stunt pay when they have to strain their voices. A strike won't take place unless 75% of voters are in favor of the proposals. If the action is approved it could set up a battle between game publishers and the voice actors. This could also delay more than a few titles. Hopefully everything works out. I am a full supporter of voice actors getting paid properly for the work that they do. What do you think ?
