The story began last week when Helena Taylor performed Bayonetta We released a series of videos for the first two games in the series. She claimed she was only offered $4000 for her third roleand consequently called on fans to boycott the upcoming game.
“Fat cats cream over the top and leave us with crumbs,” she says, not being able to earn a living wage from the industry as she struggles with depression and anxiety. As she says, after being understated, she wrote to the game’s executive director, Hideki Kamiya, to plead her case. He claims he acknowledged how much it meant.
“I was afraid I would be on the street,” she said of not being able to pay a living wage. “It scared me so much that I once killed myself.” I’m not afraid of non-disclosure agreements, I can’t even afford to drive, what are they going to do, take my clothes? Good luck to them.”
