![]() ![]() I was paid a shockingly low total of £3000 total for the first game. ![]() I was just asking for a fair, living wage in line with the value that I bring to this game. "I've also been informed of ridiculous fictions, such as I asked for 250,000 dollars. "There were not 'extensive negotiations,'" her tweet reads. ![]() The studio then offered her a $4,000 flat fee to voice some lines in the game, she writes on Twitter, also adding that "any other lies, such as 4,000 for 5 sessions are total fabrications," alluding to Bloomberg's reporting. She says she then declined to voice the game and heard nothing from Platinum Games for 11 months. Taylor's tweet says "$5,0000," which is equivalent to $50,000, but it's clear Taylor meant $5,000, bringing the total up to $15,000. "He replied saying how much he valued my contribution to the game and how much the fans wanted me to voice the game. "I thought as a creative, he would understand," she writes in a tweet. Following the $10,000 offer, Taylor writes that she wrote, in Japanese, to Hideki Kamiya to ask what she was worth. Neither Nintendo nor Platinum Games have released information confirming that Bayonetta is a franchise worth almost half a billion dollars. She then cites again that Bayonetta is a "450 million dollar franchise (not counting merchandise)," a claim some in the industry have refuted. Now, she says that the "first offer" that "was too low" was $10,000 total. Originally, Taylor said she was only offered $4,000 to return to voice Bayonetta in Bayonetta 3, which hits Switch this Friday. In Taylor's thread, released October 24, the voice actor says that she feels "the need to defend myself and my reputation in the industry" since "some people are calling me a liar and a golddigger." They also follow a statement released by Platinum Games that essentially asks the community to support Hale and her statement. These tweets follow a report from Bloomberg that refuted Taylor's original claims and added clarification from sources as to how Jennifer Hale, the new Bayonetta voice actor, came about getting the role. Former Bayonetta 3 voice actor Hellena Taylor has released a new thread of tweets clarifying some of what she said in regards to Platinum Games' "immoral" compensation offer to return to voice the titular character in the threequel. ![]()
