I'm sure by now everyone has head of the "controversy" over the new avengers game in reagrds to the character design.
A lot of people are upset that the characters in this game are upset because the characters dont share the likeness of the superheroes whom we've been fawning over on the silver screen for a decade now. Which is kind of understandable.
There are also people who don't mind the new faces and will buy the game and enjoy it thoroughly regardless.
I for one dont much care about the mcu or tv shows and stuff like that in general. My heart belongs solely to videogames in this regard.
There are then those that choose to defend the devs decision to no use celeb cameos. And the defense they most often use is that its too expensive for the games industry... Thats a littlw confusing to me for a couple reasons.
The games industry has more money in it than hollywood. So why is it too expensive for games devs to pay for cameos but hollywood can pay for its actors? How come kojima can afford multiple actors like Norman Reedus and CDPR can pay for Keanu Reeves but the cast of the mcu(who's names and faces are, at this point after watching them for 10 years, now synonymous with the characters they're playing) are too expansibe to hire? Like they can't just pay them for a face scan and hire a totally different actor for the mo-cap and voice?
Im in no way invovled in any of these industries to any extent so I'm very stupid about all this stuff.
Sorry for the long post
TLDR; i dont know anything but why are celeb cameos too expensive for a seemingly bigger industry?
