The CG movies from A New Empire are so weird. Like, I think they might have used the game's models as a base, added shaders reminiscent of late-'90s/early-2000s CG, gave them to animators who aren't in the same league as BD2's, and told them to go wild, with the overall effect being something that feels like it would have been more at home in a PSOne game than in a mobile game commercial.
As far as FFXV is concerned, it seems to operate under the principle that, dialogue aside, Noct/the Player Character should be under the player's control as much as possible, whether through the game's core systems, setpiece-specific dynamics, or QTEs... none of which plays very well with CG, for obvious reasons. It's something of a trade-off - you're given fewer chances to see awesome in exchange for more chances to be awesome. Part of me thinks it would be cool to have more cutscenes, but the other part of me probably would have been disappointed I couldn't do the thing myself if the game included cool stuff in the cutscenes that I couldn't do in-game.

To be honest that actually doesn't look like Nyx at all, so I can kinda see why he's not too happy with that.
Although Square is a huge company, I'm not surprised to hear that there is some dissatisfaction with working with them. The FFXV Universe being a mess due to teams not talking to one another is a testament to this sadly.
I'd wager lot's of miscommunication and misunderstandings led to that and this actor's dissatisfaction.

apparently Nyx's actor is selling nudes to his fans now? and as pointed out in this post, no other actor complained.
anyway,
didn't know aranea could lose her helm during battle and its already possible to swap character models on pc, here's Ignis with his hair down and emo Noctis

I don't know how we don't have yet a hairdresser in Lestallum. With the different beards and hairs the characters wear through the game and also Brotherhood.

dunno about that, but isn't the beginning of a career supposed to be hard? and while you climb you get better pays and all that?
he gave up early to me, i don't discredit what he experienced in the industry but maybe he wasn't aware of the reality of it

i never realized so many people worked on TW3, wasn't FFXV's total staff just around 300? or that's counting all outsourced workers?

It's not out in itunes in Australia, but then again I never buy music on itunes anyway.
Here's the CD version in case anyone is interested.
They changed the cover too! It's Noctis now.

I'm honestly surprised to learn this. Especially considering that, that appears to be a fan made character resulting from mixing Nyx's template with a another random one and Nyx was otherwise never shown in the game and was portrayed as an extreme badass of the highest magnitude in KG. I can believe and totally get the being poorly paid part but he's also a pretty unknown dude in the industry and almost everyone starts out small in entertainment. Especially in gaming. I'd say Square didn't really do anything to tarnish his image or reputation. If Libertus' actor who was limping all throughout KG and had a fairly minimal presence in the game can keep a professional and upbeat attitude while showing the fans love then I'm thinking that this dude is being pretty full of himself and is an extremely spoiled sport. Idk if he voiced Nyx too but if he did it is a bit disappointing that such an awesome character is played by someone who comes off as a bit of an ass.
