[Feedback] Wuk Lamat's English Voice

[NiceNox]

I still find it quite weird that many people are so attached to the concept of "representation" and so on. This is a game based on a fantasy world, nothing is real, and we should treat it as such. If there is a "representation", cool, it's like an easter egg or something, but shouldn't be forced on the devs or to be expected or something. Also, by the "representation" logic, shouldn't Japanese or German VA be from South American ancestry as well? How long should and what length that ancestry be? Should the rule "One-drop rule" be considered? In my opinion, forcing something to represent something is kinda weirdly offensive and racist to me, like, imagine if there's a location "representing" Southeast Asia and all NPCs speak in broken English with an accent those Hollywood actors used to do when playing an Asian character in 40s or 70s.

I could be wrong but is it only the English version that does this? I'm assuming they aren't speaking Japanese in a latino accent in the original version of the game or putting a latino accent on the German version?

English only, yeah.

I think so, in the JP dub, they all speak modern/Tokyo japanese, maybe the occasional Kansai

Nope, german is perfectly fine... no horrible fave accents. The most we have is some archaic speech or someone having quirks, like Gobbies or Sylphs... I guess thats why i was ok with Wuk...
