Why did games start to include film actors? It doesnt really add anything to the game other than "oh, I know that dude!" when you first see the character.

Makes it easier to animate realistic looking people.

Good for marketing.
The better question is why did Kojima, and the answer to that is because he's desperate to be affiliated with Hollywood.

fuck off zoomer

I think it has to do with facial motion capture, real actors are good at it for obvious reasons.

Normalfags love their celebs for some inscrutable reason.

>Takeshi Kaneshiro only plays Samanosuke in the Japanese dub

Onimusha 3 is a weird game

Proper acting ability
Combination of looks and skills
Recognizable, marketable brand
Experience
Professionalism
Meanwhile "voice" actors are a bunch of incompetent, worthless, unionized B-list divas that'll go on strike for having to recite their lines many times, then demand % royalties based on the game's success.
It's no coincidence the only genuinely good voice actor in the industry told the fuckups to suck it up and improve.
Camden Adams
Yes and the best stealth games to date.

Nolan North is far from the only genuinely good voice actor and that's not what he said at all.

Norman Reedus is a shit actor tho.
Jace Harris
Fucking decoy posting.
Robert Ramirez
The pinnacle of stealth games, get over it.
Sebastian Fisher
He's not great but he's still better than the average video game voice actor.
The problem with Death Stranding is that it still has some of the same old voice actors like Troy Baker giving their typical generic video game performance which just ruins it. Either go the whole way and get a whole cast of actual actors (good ones, not just famous ones) or don't bother.

Movie games need movie actors. Next dumb question

Troy Baker's performance in TLOU is better than anything done by Reedus. It depends on who is directing I guess.
Angel Hernandez
That's kojimas fault. Baker is a faggot but he has tons of range, it's the directors fault if they just make him american rooty rooty cowboy man. He was a waste in mgs v, but you can hear the difference in acting skill between him and Kaz, or keifer for that matter, who is an awful voice actor.

Wow, this game inspired RE4 more than I thought (never got into the Onimusha series)
Camden Barnes
The fact nobody has mentioned Wing Commander yet reveals that this board is riddled with console kiddies.
Camden Williams
Well when you put it that way. Is Miyazaki and George RR matin a better colab?
Levi King
What about fucking TekWar? That game was literally commissioned by William Shatner AND starred him.
Robert Sullivan
Martin would be the Yoko in that conparison and they're both fat.
Mason Collins
And you an Animefag
Carson Butler
The one with the best maverick type character? Biff?
Dominic Gutierrez
But still it was a fantastic game
