Concerns regarding usage of copyrighted materials

I've been drafting a plan of direction for my content style, and I've run into some concerns.

Heres what I've observed
- Many creators are making substantial profit from soundtrack sampling, imagery and AI trained voiceovers, without repercussions
- Stay away from Nintendo- notorious for giving out strikes

My intentions:
- Utilize material from media which is nostalgic to me. Example - Age of Mythology soundtrack remix, paste AOM character onto vid of guy doing goofy dance, crop guy onto backdrop from game, train AI voiceovers with in-game dialogue, potential skits, etc.

Legal precautions:
- No monetization, no linked patreon etc.
- "All rights go to..."

I am primarily music focused, and intend to take major creative liberties and extensive production, not just "slowed+reverb". The point is to truly embrace and pay tribute to the source. What are your thoughts?

Anyone know much about AI voice conversion?

I'm trying to reasearch the topic but struggling. I have specific voices in mind. Some may be widely available like Mr Ping, but others I want like Arkantos from Age of Mythology, probably not so common. Whats the best way to go about this, and how much money can I expect to be forking out?
