[Feedback] Wuk Lamat's English Voice

[Nestama]

There is as far as I read no transphobia here.

That's because transphobic posts get reported and eventually deleted (there were A LOT in this threads early days to the point where this thread was hidden as a result. Even the tags were pretty bad, too). There were a couple posted around page 100 or so with a disappointing amount of likes (~20-30).

Anyway, criticism is fine, but don't believe that you're in the majority in hating the VA when really you could just be a third. 1/3 hates, 1/3 loves and 1/3 indifferent. Don't go out of your way to personally attack the VA just because of some tweets as that just comes off as looking for a reason to hate her, the person and not their performance which is probably why some people may make assumptions. Don't bring "DEI hire" into this as it just makes you sound like a grifter rage-bait conspiracy theorist. Just criticise the voice (and story if you so choose), call out the posts that actually are being transphobic so those giving the thread a cursory glance at those moments don't think you're complicit with it and you're gucci in my eyes. SE will most likely NOT change Wuk Lamat's VA just because of this thread (because again, most likely just a third of the XIV population), since it has a handful of the same people posting in it such as myself, yourself and so forth.

Dude, the VA is not good at the job. YET the VA got the mainrole of the expansion... You can call it rage-bait conspiracy theory as much as you want. DEI-Hiring being the reason makes the most sense.

And I personally cant see how anyone would ever love the VA outside of ''Oh my god she is like us''. Simply because the VA lacks the skills for being the MC.

I also have yet to read an explanation WHY anyone would think the WA does a great job... while there are multiple why people think the VA doesnt.

People dislike the VA not because the VA is a T, people dislike the VA because the VA is a big part why the expansion is not enjoyable if you play it in english.
But ofc people can definitly make the arguement that hiring a T is maybe not the best choice for the female MC, since it is kinda obv, that the vocalrange will be limited especially if you want to convey emotions.
Which I dont see as an transphobic argument.

The VA obv also had doubts in themselves playing the role, which is why the tweets were posted. It doesnt help that the VA personally seems to be a rather bad person.

I am also kinda sure that people keeps mentioning how bad the VA is as a person because people keep defending the VA without arguments, throwing insults and labels as counter argument
just underlines they only defend the VA for the obv reason, which is simply annoying.

At the end it doesnt matter anymore much, since the start of the expansion is now ruined for a lot of people.
*Shrug* will they change it? Unlikely... should people voice their opinion to have a chance of a better future.. yes they should.

I personally have switched to the Jap version... so i will see in the next patches.

I didn't know a person could be a letter T.

What's that short for? Come on, say it.
