    I sincerely hope SE doesn't make staffing decisions based on whether or not people would make it political. Until I read this thread I didn't even know Wuk Lamat's VA was trans, nor do I care now that I do. If you're bad at your job, you should be held accountable. That being said, I actually liked her performance and thought it matched the character quite well.

    I like how when a cis straight person does something 10 years in the past people are digging through all of it and thats "okay", but because this person is trans we can't be "political" and use what they said against them even tho it was from only a few months ago.

    The hypocrisy is beautiful.

    Because being trans is not a political statement you dingus.
    It's not being part of a hate-spreading journal 10 years ago or anything remotely reprehensible. It's litteraly like wanting to blame them for being black, homesexual, or something as basic as being left handed.

    My earlier comment was expressing my opinion that an employer should hire and evaluate their staff based on their merit, regardless of their identity. You're assuming my opinion on a scenario that's irrelevant to the point I was trying to make and then use that as an argument to call me a hypocrite. Quite the strawman.

    It reminds me of the Susan Calloway thing that happened in October where people randomly went through her twitter account then dug up post from 6-8 months earlier to then call her out as being a transphobe and islamophobe and her contract with square enix most likely ended long before it's end date. I don't mind Wuk Lamat's voice but people should also be free to criticize her voice/performance without being called transphobes because at times she does sound like an amateur actress.

    A lot of complaints seems to be related to her identity tho'.
    Have only listened a bit of the english dub, she seems fine. At worst her performance isn't fully figured out yet which makes sense given she didn't have the character fully in her grasp yet for those early lines i take it.
    And in which case, it lies more on the responsability of the dub director than the actor. Amazing actors will have subpar performance when not directed well.

    Just leave it as it is... it is a cat specie... and we know little about them to be honest... Wuk Lamat is fine... I don't see why people is crazy about it as it is.

    I think alot of people need rethink what they are typing, and even considering not to post stuff at all.
