Hi. I love Hades and Hades 2 as much as everyone else but we NEED to make some noise because Supergiant is refusing to sign contracts with fair pay and anti-AI clauses. And they are straight up recasting VAs to punish VAs who are striking (sag-aftra has been striking for 7 months).
We really need to make noise here because this mistreatment will continue if we don't.
I'm providing a link for the company contact page in the replies. Please send them a comment on their contact page and encourage others to do so. Maybe even leave a steam review about it, idk.
Hi, I'm a professional voice actor who is also currently striking! (My website so you know I'm not lying lol: www.kelseyjaffer.com/voiceover ) I saw a person in the replies essentially wondering "If a game goes Union, then isn't the company then only allowed to hire SAG-AFTRA actors?" Nope! Anyone, regardless of union status can work on a SAG-AFTRA project. This goes for any job covered by any other labor union in the US, btw. In fact, working on Union games as a non-union actor is how people become eligible to join the union in the first place! Additionally, I know actors who live in Canada, Australia, and the UK who have worked on Union games. If you're international, you do not need a work permit or visa to work on a SAG-AFTRA video game.
