Doing pure ai voicework yea sure but paying them to do ts is still much better than just straight replacing them and i honestly dont see much difference to the female tiktok tts voice that was on every other video
It’s better, yeah. But that doesn’t mean it’s good. Ideal would be them simply paying for a voice actor to record all the lines, which in the case of Arc Raiders they now thankfully appear to be doing.
