Bintang Kingdom Come: Deliverance mengatakan itu tidak mengarah pada pekerjaan di game lain: 'Industri pada umumnya tidak pernah benar-benar peduli dengan f***'

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a game of many excellent parts, and some of its most excellent are lead characters Henry of Skalitz and Lord Hans Capon. That's in no small part down to the fact that both of them have great voice actors: Tom McKay for Henry and Luke Dale for Capon, who both turn in fantastic and memorable performances.

Just, not memorable enough for the games industry, I guess, because in a recent appearance on Firezide Chat, Dale said that—for as lauded as his work as Capon was—"I wish I could say that Kingdom Come 2, the work I've done and the fact it's been played by millions of people led to more work, but it didn't."

Dale had, he says, hoped that his work in KCD1 and 2 would lead to more work in more games, but no dice. "I always hedge my bets because I don't think the industry has been particularly kind to me," he said. "Warhorse have been absolute gems. They're so supportive and really believed in me the whole way through. But the industry at large has never really given a fuck."

Since first starring in KCD1, Dale has appeared in only two other videogame roles, per his IMDB: voices in Battlefield 5 and a role in the VR game TaVRn's Takedown – Naheulbeuk.

His attitude regarding the industry is what has led Dale to start streaming (he currently has 72,000 followers on Twitch). "I thought, 'How can I turn this into something really cool for me?' That's where streaming came in. I thought, 'People seem to want me to do it, so let's do that.'

"If more acting work comes from this, great, but I'm not going to rely on that. I know people want me to stream, and I can build a community here if I choose to and work really hard. So I did, and that's worked incredibly well."

Dale isn't the only KCD actor to fire up a Twitch channel—McKay has too, and has been playing, well, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.

"I've seen a lot of actors who've had these big opportunities to stream the game they're in as the lead character, and I'm thinking, 'Why aren't you doing that?'" said Dale. "It's not for everyone, so I get that, but give it some thought. Don't just let it pass you by, because it could be the best thing you ever did. It certainly was for me. It changed my life completely."
