They don't like his voice for a video game character.

They also need to go touch grass if it pisses them off so much, since it's optional if they want to use his voice or not...

Basically he's voice acting for an iconic character (Kiryu) and general opinion is that he doesn't fit the role.

Because Yong Yea did the same exact thing. So people are clowning on him for it on top of just not being a good VA.

This is what I don't get.

I'm involved with some of the other franchises that he VA'd in, like Pucci in Jojo or Arios in the Trails series, and no one ever complained in those.

In fact, all I hear is praise for his role as Pucci

Yongs also mass blocking and hiding the replies of anybody who dares even so much as give the most milquetoast of criticism, even if they were being mostly positive in their replies, over on Twitter.

Totally not the smartest way to handle this, Yong, as youre making it worse by trying to pretend its just a few trolls.

Downside is you'll have a guy who looks like Danny Trejo not being voiced by Danny Trejo haha

But yeah, I liked Yong Yea as Pucci and Arios, he just doesn't fit Kiryu, but honestly, Kuroda is basically Kiryu... don't think it's enough for me to not go dubbed though since the Y7 cast is great...and I want Danny Trejo and Daniel Dae Kim's voices

Really, feels like the most petty of all internet dramas that immediately comes to mind. Yeah he's not the best choice, but he's far from terrible. I'd say the worst part is that he can't accept the criticism, work to grow into the role, & accept that he got the role partially based on his YouTube clout.

He got cast as Kiryu from Yakuza, & is salty that everyone criticizes his performance.Specifically, he's accused of getting the role because of his YouTuber status, which given the pipeline of YouTube to voice acting, is pretty obvious. Dude can accept that his accomplishments aren't fully talent based, & is throwing a tantrum by blocking anyone on Twitter & any other social media, that calls him out. Doesn't help he's really trying to flaunt the position.

It should probably be added that he's a YouTuber that liked to focus his content on controversial and negative stories in gaming. There's even a clip of him going around of him complaining and being critical about Chris Pratt's voice in Mario.

So I think there's an extra element of what goes around comes around with him specifically.

But Chris Pratt was a bad Mario, it was just Chris Pratt sounding like Chris Pratt. Both things can be true at once that YongYea isn't cast well in this instance but Chris Pratt still sucks as Mario

Yong Yea built his YouTube career shitting on game devs and people in the industry. Hes even gone as far as to defend the right for anyone to use the hard-r n-word. I guarantee that if this was anyone else getting dog piled for their performance, he would already have a video out about it.

The guy is a known clickbaiter who appeals to the most toxic base of the gaming community. You know hes not a very well liked person when Reddit, Twitter, ResetEra, and 4chan of all places come together to clown on this guy and say hes getting a taste of his own medicine.

Yeah, it's giving me Mindy Kaling controversy vibes where it wasn't enough she was in a shitty cartoon show, but then people started posting out of context or ones where she was clearly joking videos about how much of a terrible human being she is.

With that said, Yong Yea is somewhat of a controversial figure that makes youtube money off of dogpiling on easy targets and I think it's his first time feeling the other end of that dog piling.

I dont hate him or anything, and he has VA roles where hes actually good, like Pucci, but his Kiryu voice is just not it.

Kiryus whole thing is speaking with a gruff, deadpan voice. It feels like Yongyea kinda goes for the deadpan but without the gruffness, and it ends up sounding super wooden and stiff, while also making Kiryu sound like hes a tired 20 year old or something

Youtube clout matters to companies now? I would love it if TFS members got more roles.

It's not? He used YouTube clout to displace someone (the original VA retired, but I'm sure there a few struggling actors that could have used that gig) and did a shitty job. Saying he did a shitty job is hardly beyond the pale.

And this isn't even going into him being a literal paid influencer to his audience and selling them on CP2077 at launch. Then going "oh my bad lol" when exposed. He's also rage click YouTube grifter.

YongYea unboxes Fallout 76 collector's edition. Looks at nylon bag. Says it's 'nice' and he 'might use it'.
YongYea sees that Reddit is making a big stink about the bag being a cheap nylon bag instead of the implied canvas bag.
YongYea makes a long video admonishing Bethesda and their laziness and goes on about how horrible they are now over that bag he initially thought was a-ok.

It's not YouTubers in general that suck, it's shitty YouTubers. Johnny Harris and Kurzgesagt are fantastic--people like YongYea and ReviewTechUSA are gutter trash.

So you're upset that YongYea realized that Bethesda falsely advertised a product and called them out on it?

And why the hate for ReviewTechUSA?
