But, when I got the audition, I didn’t want to copy him. So I’d heard him doing the English accent. The first game where he had an English voice was Xrd Sign, and he was played by Liam O’Brien. The first game where any Guilty Gear characters had English voices was Guilty Gear 2: Overture, but Axl wasn’t in that game. I’ve been playing Guilty Gear since Sharp Reload, so I’ve been playing for a long, long time. What did you take from past games and what inspired your take on Axl? He also offered some helpful tips for newcomers looking to get into competitive fighting games like Guilty Gear Strive. Gross gave me some insight into his history with the fighting game community and how he found his voice for Axl. He’s also a full-time streamer and Twitch partner who goes by Octopimp. Besides Axl, Gross has also voiced Eric from Boyfriend Dungeon, Toru Iwashimizu from Free!, and additional voices in popular games like Persona 5: Strikers. He talked about his experience as a competitive Guilty Gear player at Anime NYC, which is why I reached out to him to talk more about how his knowledge of the game affected the newest iteration of Axl in Guilty Gear Strive. Gross voices Axl Low, British time traveler and resident Guilty Gear zoner. However, when it comes to fighting games, it’s more difficult to find actors who can really play, let alone compete in an actual tournament. Brianna White, who voices Aerith in Final Fantasy VII Remake, has streamed casual walkthroughs of herself playing the game. Genshin Impact’s Zach Aguilar regularly hosts streams related to the game with fellow voice actors. Many voice actors have hands-on experience with the games they work on in some way. So I made him a combination of every f**kboy that I know. “I read the script and I was like, 'Wow, this guy's a piece of sh*t’," Gross said. Gross said he even agrees with the general dislike of the character. He even asked people on Twitter on August 16 to stop sending him hate messages about Eric. Since the game's release, Gross has received plenty of hate on social media. It's just acting, y'all.- Axl Jorts Restoration Squad August 16, 2021 There's bad people out there, I don't support what these kind of people are doing/saying/thinking at all. Saying "it reflects poorly on me to play a character like this" is so confusing. I don't condone what the character does." "It was part of a longer paragraph message or something, and that confused me because you know, I'm thinking I took the job because this is what I love doing. "There was one (message) that I got, and I actually quoted this one, it was like, 'It reflects badly on you for portraying a character that does these kinds of things,'' Gross told Kotaku. Kotaku spoke with Eric's voice actor, Alexander Gross, about the harassment he's receiving for simply voicing the character. The content warning mentions the stalking and emotional manipulation, but it doesn't mention that interacting with Eric is necessary to complete the game. In short, Eric is manipulative and a stalker. Developer Kitfox Games says a "more accurate" version of the content warning is on the way, but in the meantime, some have taken to social media to harass the voice actor for the game's villain, Eric.
