I actually don't completely hate the new art direction, but the voices are SO bad. It's like the voice actors were forced to lip sync to characters who were animated talking a mile a minute without their actual dialogue lines in mind (which is probably what happened).
Legit better to just use the old voices & not even worry if they line up with lip movement.

When leftists claim a piece of entertainment that most people wouldn't find leftist is leftist, this is usually what they're doing.
Someone on here just a few days ago was claiming Backrooms is leftist because the protag (a black guy) is possessive & rapey.
Actually it was several someones. When I asked one of them if a movie with the sexes switched, a woman trying to control a man, would mean it was political in the opposite direction, I immediately got blocked.
Someone said that "the president was pals with Epstein" to argue that people who aren't leftists are pro-rape. I pointed out leftist Noam Chomsky and Democrat Bill Clinton were also pals with Epstein & did far less to distance themselves from him. No response.
Zero percent chance Edgar Allan Poe could get published today. Read up on how caustic he was towards other writers.
Trad publishing has become a high school clique. There’s very little concern with finding or promoting great stories and lots of concern for enforcing social rules and playing hall monitor.
I’ve also seen posts to the effect that editors won’t work with anyone who doesn’t have active social media accounts. So there’s a Soviet/CCP sort of "You’re not free to speak your mind, but you don’t have freedom of silence either” attitude. You have to either be in complete agreement with these people or fake a persona that you are.
