YouTubers and Streamers in Sonic Prime. Your thoughts?

[The Great Egg Emperor]

For context:

In Sonic Prime, while most of the character are voiced by Canadian VAs, a couple of the side characters (technically 2) are voiced by famous internet personalities.

Squad Commander Red in episode 6 is voiced by YouTube and Twitch streamer Valkyrae, who is probably the lesser-known of the two, but she's still pretty well known.

However, the big one most people know by now is that Jacksepticeye voices a pirate named Jack (and if what he said on one of his livestreams is true, other characters in the future seasons).

I'm just curious as to what everyone thinks of this. Personally, I like it. It's a neat little hidden surprise. Plus, both of them have had some experience in voice acting before, so it makes sense.

S'okay, I guess. Feels kind of forced, IMO.

[DaBigJ]

Don't see why it matters. They're people just like us, so I'm fine with them being VAs in cartoons.

[The Tenth Doctor]

Jack's been doing a few voices for games so this is a stepup for him. No problems for me, not really intrusive right now.

I mean...if they're decent voice actors who am I to slag?

[Rabid-Coot]

Its not that different from other celebrities dipping into multiple things plus its probably good to have a thing to fall back on if the online career ever stalls.

I honestly didn't noticed.  Probably because I never heard of Jacksepticeye or Valkyrae before until this moment.  But, I just treat them as I would if any movie celebrity appeared in a TV show.  As long as they do a good job at voicing the characters they got, then I'm okay with it.

Good cool

Maybe if they get Ryan Reynolds…

[Blueknight V2.0]

Got no problems here. Skylanders Academy did this a couple times outside the core cast, and I wasn't bugged by it one bit.

I think my main issue is that these guys can get in, but not other American actors. Like I thought the law stated that only Canadian VAs can be involved with Canadian productions, I guess there's some sort of loophole that I didn't know about.

I honestly didn't even know; so that must have meant they did a better job than, say, the people tapped for Hunt Down the Freeman. Certainly the worst voice acting of anyone on the show didn't come from any of them.
