“Bei Yunita 3” has not yet been released and there has been a wave of news. The English version of Bei Yunita’s voice actress Hellena Taylor stepped forward in the middle of this month to accuse developer Platinum Studio of treating her badly. However, things have developed so far and there have been completely different situations.
Taylor, in a series of tweets today (24) expressing his desire to fight back against libelors, admitted that Platinum Studio had initially offered a $ 10,000 offer and wrote to Kamiya Hideki, who eventually agreed to a raise. of $ 5,000 (the original text is 50,000, but it must have been a typo), which corresponds to the figure of $ 15,000 in the document obtained from Bloomberg.
Taylor admitted in this series of tweets that Platinum Studios was willing to offer her another role for $ 4,000 11 months after breaking her part. This matches the Bloomberg report.
Taylor said he only got £ 3,000 when he dubbed the game’s first game, and the second was raised, but he thinks “Bayonita” is a $ 450 million IP and, to be honest, he deserves a little more. .
Taylor denies the claim that $ 4,000 in one section has five sections and that he offered $ 250,000, a six-figure sum, without any complicated negotiation process.
Taylor also said she donated all the money she made to the seiyuu meetup because she felt fans had already paid for the game and shouldn’t have to pay any more, to prove she wasn’t a die-hard person for money.
It’s just that Taylor’s confession got completely slapped in the face last week.He told VGC last weekthe so-called salary of over $ 4,000 is completely false and that earning $ 15,000 “is an absolute lie and a complete joke”.

A few days later, a Bloomberg reporter popped up and said he got the statement and documents from the person involved.In fact, Platinum Studio was quoting $ 3,000 to $ 4,000 per section, and there were five sections in total. so Hellena Taylor could get at least $ 15,000, but Hellena Taylor asked for a six-figure salary and royalties, so she broke the game.
Not just Bloomberg, but another VGC gaming media later claimed to have seen documentary evidence, which was in line with local voice actors’ union regulations. Subsequently, Platinum Studio also released a statement, expressing support for current “Sister Bei” voice actress Jennifer Hale.
