now they are casting men for women's roles? are we back in the 16th century again?

smh should have transitioned and opened the position for a trans woman voice actor!

You know, I'm actually curious how those old Shakespearian actors did it. I always thought they used per-pubescent boys to play the women's roles. But I wonder if adult men ever did it, using voice practicing to achieve a female voice.

At least the dev isn't using AI to do the voice. That's some dedication.

Hell yeah.

I actually kind of admire this dev. My female voices when I DM (or just talk silly at my wife) are meh. They are all chain smokers and sound like the dmv lady from monsters Inc (I love her voice)

Idk I haven't been on imdb in a while

Lol I didn't think he was the actual voice, I just heard Lemmy doing some covers recently and reflected on his voice.

I looked it up:

https://monstersinc.fandom.com/wiki/Roz

She is voiced by Bob Peterson, the story supervisor of Monsters, Inc.

bit idea: eggy studio owner who sets unnecessarily strict DEI requirements which they use as a pretext for transitioning

"you don't understand! i don't want to transition, it's just company policy!"

Oh my god. Why has nobody done a version of 12th night where viola is an egg and Sebastian is a (literal) bro?

I read it as Dev using the lessons to learn how to do the job themselves. I'm not sure how hiring men instead of women will help cut cost.

[-] riwo 6 points 1 week ago

well my assumption is that the dev is a man, and now hiring themselves for the job, instead of a woman :3

my joke was intended as a lighthearted joke, not a serious criticism
