Comment on SAG-AFTRA votes unanimously to expand its strike to include the games industry
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 months agoDon’t underestimate the power of celebrity actors in games in terms of sales. There are people who buy games specifically because certain actors are in them.

That’s true, and there are people who go see movies specifically because of whom appears in them. But I’d hesitate to call that the majority, especially in gaming. The set of people that play games and the set of people who follow the industry are certainly overlapping, but are far from identical.
