the difference is they paid the guy to be the voice actor and for his likeness. They did NOT pay the person who's voice they copied for Bherat
Who said they paid any real or historical persons for likeness? They BASED some models on known images I think, that's not copying and the model created may be similar to, but is not in fact, the known image. For those images willingly based on a known entity I think they were credited.

if they are obviously copying people and paying some and ignoring and not telling others about their copies than why r people denying that the copying is going on. it obviously is even by your own admission of pictures. the only difference is that they paid some and they didn't pay others, and that is what my issue is. they should pay everyone they copy. that is my OPINION end of story.
First, PLEASE stay off the lyrium, you've had enough already!
Second, please at least try to grasp the concepts of likeness and copy and the fact that they differ.
Voice actors was paid to come up with characters for varius roles in the game, chain ends there. What the VAs based their basic character on doesn't realy matter as it's doesn't come within the areas of copyrights.
As you say they DO credit sources, so there's two plausible answers here.
A. It's a devilish conspiracy to crush this unknow actor by estimating his portrayal of a charter in a b-movie and depriving him of his natural born rights to be the only one using those manerisms and tonal qualities and blatantly denying him any recognition.
B. They don't know he excist and the VAs voice just coicidentally happened to sound similar.
As they didn't credit him as the source, what do you think is the most likely of the answers (remember Occam's razor).
