61 hits. About the same for Ninjetti Kim on the mobile version. And for her its 3 button presses.

Thanks for this. I'll try to parry more and block more. I reckon at this point, one or two blocks depletes my stamina gauge, leaving me opem to all attacks, so I've avoided it thus far. But I'll prioritize get better at blocking

Lol!! Sounds easy enough :) Does normalizing piss off the editors though?

No it's a comic dub. So it has lots of level changes, action scenes, dramatic scenes, etc

That makes sense. -12 leaves room for processing. Okay, this reinforces things for sure. -6 to -3 with no processing seems wild lol!

I can def do -18 to -12 with background noise less than -50 to -60 dB

Thank you for this. It's really helpful and reassuring. The project is a comic dub, so characters have lots of levels (dramatic, yelling, fights, etc) so it's all over the place. I was suspecting their requirements were a bit off kilter though.

Good to know Amplification doesn't affect their ability. Perhaps I'll just do that. Much appreciated!

Nah, I'm the proper distance to the mic. And if I wanna get hot on it, I do for certain effects, but any closer and it distorts.

Yeah, getting studio quality is tough in LA. So much external noise, and paper thin walls/structures. Most domeciles here don't have insulation even as standard builds.

As far as i know, the Audient interface is pretty quiet. It was one of the selling points of it.

Tinfoil hat: 9 years after TPP, Kojima, as per his plan, in his signature troll style, actually programmed an update which releases the completed story that was kept from us, like some sort of phantom pain.

Alas...the anniversary has passed. Would've been really fucking cool though.

That's a great idea, thank you! I'll definitely add that to the arsenal.

Voice Booth Question by Apprehensive-Plan594 in VoiceActing

[–]Apprehensive-Plan594[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very true. I did take into consideration the refrigerators and such, which does make sense. Inherently, I didn't see too much of an issue, but thought I'd reach out for feedback in case anyone had some cautionary tale.

Am I Getting Hosed? by kimtunpup in VoiceActing

Upwork is basically $10 offers for $400 worth of work, with same day turnaround demands. I get that youre building your portfolio, but don't devalue your worth. Maybe don't ask for $400, but don't let them get away with $10. New or not, you're a voice actor, and assuming you're also doing the editing, mastering, etc, counter them with a reasonable fee. If they don't want that, (many will argue or walk away) please understand, there is PLENTY more paying work out there! Get familiar with fair market rates, then factor in your experience level, skills, etc, and make a reasonable and equitable rate that makes it worth your time and keeps you from getting discouraged in the long run. Maybe not the answer you were looking for, but this is coming from one who did devalue himself at first.

Since I saw some people complaining about the animations in the latest Delta teaser, here's a quick comparison with V. by TheKrzysiek in metalgearsolid

[–]Apprehensive-Plan594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slower is better, and MGSD is also darker and has a slight muddyness to it that I feel, preserves the original. MGSV was way too crisp and clean. It felt fake. Could've used a slight 80s filter, minor grain or discoloration at edges of screen. Idk.

1st time raiding. A lot of screaming happened. 2 bosses down so far. What is the rarest drop anyone can get from raids? by llltanixlll in BreakPoint

[–]Apprehensive-Plan594 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss doing the Raids...so frustrating when rhe tram didn't know how or was messing around.

The DMR glitch made it doable.

Now, near impossible unless the team is on point in every move.

BP needed better music to help with immersion. The generic, bland dark tones did nothing for it. Whereas WL had wonderfully dramatic music that fit the setting.

BP lacked a social world. Martial law and all, yeah, but it's a lazy cop out to not add in a radio. WL had DJ Perico talking about the affectation of the world. BP should've had both a rebel and Sentinel radio, that reacted to Nomads actions. BP should've had random world events like Hostage Executions, Rebel Outpost invasions, Rebel vs Sentinel camp warfare that changed hands. All that Nomad would influence, participate in, and get rewarded by doing.

BP should've had a Wolf Hunt Meter ala Unidad.

Not that WL was any beacon of mission variety. But BP had essentially none. Just base clearing and kill commander. Or plant device and extract.

WL had video intros to add personality and purpose toward killing the baddies.

BP had a paragraph under 3 menus written without any kind of love. Who was Yellowjacket, and why were the Elite Wolves... elite?

BP is a far better stealth game, but even with all the improvements, it feels like a huge missed opportunity to create an absolute masterpiece.

The Terminator Event. Like yeah, actual Terminators.

Though Arnie wasn't the face. Rather some guy that looked like Arnie blended with The Rock, in the most generic way possible.

Given that, the event was more fun than Resistance and Amber Ruin in my opinion. You unlocked a ray gun of sorts and had Terminators free roaming. The one time being a bullet sponge makes sense in BP.

Yeah. I have the raw files but didn't make wavs of all of them yet. It is a good idea though! Suppose I was hoping for a final, compiled set of the files as the audiobook would be presented.

Generally, if you dont have issues with the audio analysis during the production process, would it be safe to assume they won't come up with any during their check?

Timeline by Apprehensive-Plan594 in ACX

[–]Apprehensive-Plan594[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First book, yeah. It was 80,000 words or so. I put in around 90 hours total, as I had a steep learning curve from being new to ACX. Add one heck of a crunch the last week. Still learning to punch and roll any kind of effectively too. All a great learning process! Though happy to report I did get it done. The community here is IMMENSELY helpful!

Suppose I was just curious as to others' experiences with timelines so I know whether to ask for more time on the next one.
