as someone who doesn't play this, is there a general consensus on the main character design being an exact mirror of his voice/motion actor (Cameron Monaghan), rather than an original design? always been curious
consensus on what, if it's a good thing? makes no difference to me.
do fans care? are most indifferent to it such as yourself?
i ask mostly out of curiosity but also because personally it would take me out of the game to play as the guy from Shameless and Gotham, running around and swinging a light saber. then again, it is third person so I'd imagine you don't see the face much 🤷🏽
It's no different to me than watching one of the movies and seeing the guy from Indiana Jones and Air Force One flying the Millennium Falcon
you understand they're different mediums right? one is an actor playing different roles in movies and the other is an actor crossing over from tv into video games. your comment is apples and oranges.
Never see any one on the Fallen Order sub complain about that back then and not now. People who care about that are in minority.
This isn't something strange. Yakuza series hired actors to use their face and voice for their characters in most of their entries.
