cashew: Sumomo acting like Sumomo (Default)

Well, Felicia Day (Zojja's VA) is a pretty big name in gaming specifically, since she's got similar gaming nerd cred as Wil Wheaton (aka Wesley from ST:TNG), and also dual hosts tons of Youtube shows with him. (They're like BFFS who troll each other constantly.) I honestly love Felicia Day's voice acting and she's pretty hilarious. Check her out in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog(Neil Patrick Harris' idea of how to deal with the Writer's Guild strike XD). Since she's pretty much the go to person for a lot of these male geek-nerd stars, it's probably the reason behind her being such a huge name. I know she really likes Zojja's character and actually plays GW2, so not sure what happened there to make her unavailable for future recordings. (She did a whole unboxing video of her GW2 collector's edition, because NERD.)

On the other hand, the video game industry treats their VAs like shit. So, I imagine they tried to stiff her on the recording royalties. It wouldn't surprise me at all.

As for killing...blah. Like I've said before, killing characters is a sign of either lazy and/or bad writing. Grimdark is hardly an excuse...but yeah, I get what you're saying.

Heh, I doubt Logan's gonna get offed any time soon. There's still too much tension between him and Rytlock and his really mindnumbing romance with Queen Jennah that they keep shoving down our throats. Plus, he's human. They are very reluctant when it comes to killing off their human characters.
