She voices a collection of characters in the intro area, the devs even nicknamed a spot "Aliona Plaza(nova)" (Plazanova is her last name) because she voices three characters all in the same spot!

Lotta furries hating on this cuz it's "Gen AI slop"

It's not; everything you see is NOT generative AI. They've disclosed that the reason they tagged themselves with AI is because the game allows user content creation tools that involve AI

Feel free to keep hating, just be correct with your hate

Unfortunately, I've tried to look for it, but the contract used for the voice actors is not disclosed. The studio has only said that they have been compensated for their work; which is annoyingly vague. It's possible they're being properly paid, but likely that they aren't.

I mean, Arc Raiders uses AI instead of voice actors... So they're kinda doing it in the worst way

Alternatively, Zoopunk here has disclosed that they only have a gen AI tool for user content creation; everything base game is made by the studio

Not saying it's better, just that's what they did lol

** context** I commuted via public transit for two years before buying a car; getting the car was necessary as I was to the point where my employer was going to take action against me for tardiness or being unable to get to the proper places.

And the dedicated lanes aren't even worth all the effort the cities went through to build them, because those "dedicated" lanes are still used as turn lanes for cars.

Anyway, SkyTrain sucks, rant over

If your destination isn't within walking distance; you need to budget 30-45 min of waiting time for the buses. Buses share with car traffic and are often held up. There's no streetcars that offer much higher consistency, and there's only 6 routes in the whole city that offer dedicated lanes.

Connections:
I touched on this previously, but the worst part about commuting with public transit in Vancouver is the connections. Sure, the train will get you 30-70% of the way to your destination, but then you're waiting on some of the worst buses in the world. And that's the only option.

Safety:
The SkyTrain platforms are often very dirty and it's commonplace to watch your step for needles or pipes on the ground. Theres also no barriers between the open tracks and the platform (another cause for train delays when people drop things down there)
November 19, 2025 at 5:23 PM
Consistency:
It would be unreasonable for me to expect there to never be any problems with the trains, but it feels out of proportion how often they get stuck in some way. Made worse by the fact that there's usually NO other options, other than waiting or taxi.

Groceries:
I'm right next to a SkyTrain station; there's a grocery store 2 stops away BUT it's across the arbitrary "Zone" line, so I need to pay $4 ONE WAY to utilize it. Which is more than it would cost to pay for parking at the grocery store; some of which don't even charge for parking
November 19, 2025 at 5:19 PM
Commuting:
I personally have multiple places across the city that I work at; using public transit to get to every single one of them is impossible due to the lack of good public transit options AFTER using the SkyTrain

Additionally, the SkyTrain opens late on Sat/Sun, so I can't use it then either
