I generally like Hale, but she wasn't very good as Ashe. Maybe she'll nail this one.

Literally 2nd paragraph.

Director Yusuke Miyata shared that tidbit in an interview with Game Informer. Speaking with the magazine, he explained that the change came about due to overlapping circumstances. However, Miyata did say that Jennifers performance was way beyond what we could have imagined.

She wasn't available.

If that were the reason, then the Japanese VA would have been changed as well, which is confirmed to still still be the same one.

Hale is a legit top talent voice actor

But isn't she a little old for Bayonetta?

Fem shep is my fave

But man she rocks all Bioware games. Jeheria, Balista. Even managed to squeeze into Jade Empire

She was also Sonya in the Mortal Kombat cartoon and 2 years later went full circle and was (Tanya I think?) in the games.

Nope. Nolan North, Troy Baker, and Jennifer Hale are 100% of all voice acting talent in the world. For video games at least.

The other issue is that other than Nolan North and Simpsons cast, voice actors are notoriously low paid

Would not surprise me at all if Hale keeps getting work purely because she's a world class voice actor who'll still work for the low pay the plebs get

Which is weird because aside from North I dont recall any like assassins creed actor landing any major roles after they become one.

Also you forgot Laura Bailey. I feel like these 4 actors cover damn near half of all the leads in gaming now.

Per the franchise wiki, Hellena Taylor is a UK citizen and didn't want to fly to North America to do the voice acting. Her accent is presumably her own. Jennifer Hale is Canadian-American who's going to have to attempt an English accent.

I mean it's clearly not a matter of money, because Jen Hale is one of the top women voice actors in the business.

I get the weird feeling that Bayo 3 is a "different" Bayonetta (different universe, something else weird that will be revealed later) and they're being coy about it, but honestly I've kinda pulled away from news at this point so that might already be off-base with what we know.

But her Japanese VA is still the same. Plus, they would have planned for a different VA from the start if they wanted different Bayonettas to have different voices, but since VA work is usually done towards the end of development, they planned to bring back Hellena Taylor before scheduling conflicts prevented it.

Take it up with SEGA. They're not funding the games anymore, and only Nintendo is willing to fund them.

(I'm aware that you were playing off a joke, but still.)
