Sena Bryer, controversial trans voice actress of "Wuk Lamat", one of the main characters of Final Fantasy 14's latest expansion Dawntrail, attempted in early 2023 to get another voice actress in the industry - Kelly Ohanian, voice of Bridget in Guilty Gear Strive - to quit her job over her gender, stating that Bridget should be voiced by a trans voice actress and that the cis woman playing her should step down."It's #TransDayOfVisibility, and the most visible trans woman in anime & video games is still played by a cis woman who has shown no signs of ever stepping down, and Guilty Gear's localization director did a targeted hate raid on trans people who spoke out against the decision."https://archive.is/kp3JUWhen confronted about it, Sena defends herself saying that it's not hateful or targeted to call for someone to "step down" (aka quit their paid gig) over their sexual/gender preferences.https://archive.is/tDLzqWhat makes this interesting is that the character she voices, Wuk Lamat, is in no way indicated to be a trans woman either. Therefore exposing a bit of hypocrisy in her line of thinking, as under her previous claims, Wuk Lamat should be voiced by a cis woman. What do you think? Personally, I don't think it's right for a voice actress to try and get another actress fired or coerce them into quitting their job. I'm sure people will focus on the trans shit, but I'm more worried about a potential future where it becomes normalized to try and get people fired so you can get their job.Using archived links instead of direct links in case she decides to delete her tweets.
If a Trans Woman is a Woman, shouldn’t she already feel represented? (You know the answer)
Since /v/ gets spammed with nonstop culture war brainrot, I don't feel bad in contributing absolutely nothing to this thread by saying that I don't care
>>682039024Good on the Bridget VA for not backing down, but dub VA's are still a general blight.
what do you mean what do i think? any sane person knows that the tranny is just being a stupid whiny retard
Final Faggotsy 7 Redditbirth is horseshit and flopped
>>682039024Isnt wuk lamat supposed to be ethnic in the first place? Why is a white "woman" voicing her?
>>682039024
>>682039024This is why you play with Japanese dub always. No VA drama to worry about.
trannies don't want equality, they want to take away rights from other people. they've carved themselves a culture where it's considered wrong or problematic to disagree with them and they know it. it's never been about "getting trans rights". saying that trannies have been marginalized for decades doesn't really mean much when they weren't a tranny 5 years ago, all it goes to show is that they're only doing it for victimhood status, and it's beginning to slip through the cracks how little trannies actually respect real women, and how much they actually hate them.Actual women supported this, and now they're starting to see that it was a bad idea. But currently it's too late to do anything about it. Trannies may be disgusting freaks, but they aren't necessarily stupid, considering they're still actually men. They know exactly what they've been doing this entire time, and now they're trying to cash in their chips.
>>682039640She's adopted but her real father is still from the game's equivalent of South America, so, yea.
>>682039640because only straight white people are not allowed to voice marginalized classes. Blacks can voice whites, trannies can voice biological women, gays can voice straights, etc. The only problems arise you turn it around.But it's not hypocritical!!!!
>>682039640Hes literally Latinx
>>682039024Uh, newsflash chud. C*s women CANNOT play trans characters, but trans characters can play c*s characters. This is literally not hard to understand. Kelly should step down and be ashamed of her actions, and Sena deserves the roles of Bridget, that has been her favorite character for so long, and Bridget is LITERALLY her.
>>682039359You will never be Japanese.
>>682040336keep sucking that tranny cock
>>682039024Dub VAs should all step down.
high school tier nonsense that shows how this stuff all boils down to narrow self-interest rather than the societal selflessness they like to portray it as
>>682039886>>682039359Dub VA's are still increasing the cost of producing games, even if you don't use it. So being okay with the dub voice acting world being so shit because you play subbed isn't helping you the way you think it is. You're still paying for its inclusion.
>>682040257No he isn't.
>>682039024*actor
>>682041382they never wanted rights for all, they've always wanted rights for "me me me". They just found it convenient to hitch their trailor to the LGB+ movement because it already had momentum, despite the fact that being a tranny isn't any more of a sexual preference than being a christian is. I can concede that being a faggot is something you're born with, but being a tranny is something you choose to do, especially when you still try to fuck women even after putting on a dress.
>>682039024biological women are less equal than trans women
>>682042087trannies want actual women to go back to the suffrage era where they aren't even allowed to vote or have jobs. They don't want real women to be seen anymore, because real women will always draw more positive attention than they do. I yearn for the day when every athlete in women's sports is a tranny, because that way they wont have an unfair advantage anymore, but they'll just have to accept that reality since it's the one they fought for.
>>682039024english voice "actors" are a fucking disease
>>682043530it's not voice actors, it's anyone in the west with a strong liberal bias. They try to play social police all the time and they don't care that they come off as obtuse cunts.
>>682039024Alright, /v/. What is the last dub you heard and enjoyed. Be honest and DON'T say "never" because there's at least one, even if it's full nostalgia, that you enjoyed.For me? The answer is Live A Live Remake even if the Jap VAs are objectively stronger. Seriously, check out the JP VA list, it's crazy, but I still enjoyed my playthrough with English voices.It's partially due to nostalgia, I do love the OG.
>>682044235ShadowbringersEndwalker pre-patchesSonic Frontiers (even the japanese hate japanese Sonic)
>>682040336good we like admiring japanese culture from a far not see it getting ruined by globalist cancer
what a hypocrite

Therefore exposing a bit of hypocrisy in her line of thinking, as under her previous claims, Wuk Lamat should be voiced by a cis woman. Agreed. If you are going to go out of your way to call for someone to essentially get fired over a personal standard then you need to live up to that standard yourself.
Wuk Lamat hates women??????
>>682039024Dude whoWho gives a fuckPlay video games
>tranny game>tranny protagonistxiv cultists are off in the head
>>682040336>Statement: I would rather Japanese games be voiced by actual Japanese people.>Response: YOU WILL NEVER BE AN ACTUAL JAPANESE PERSON.Huh???
>>682045126These people make your video games more expensive. Your "who cares" attitude is naive and part of why the industry is such a mess.
>>682039024What a hateful and incendiary tweet, it would be a shame if it were to be used against him.
>>682039024>FF dub>GG dub>dub at all
>>682039024We should have never stopped beating the fuck out of trannies
Wuk Lamat is misogynist?!
The minute traps start being voiced by trans people, is the minute the fetish stops working for me.It's not a conscious decision, the voice triggers an automatic response to make me lose my boner.
>>682045181No it isn't, it's you fags who continually support the modern gaming industry for the last decade constantly consuming every new slopbox or slopcard and pre ordering AAA garbage and then just coming here to qhine about your Twitter dramaIt's like having a retarded child who just keeps grabbing a hot pan and never learning it's hot
>>682039024There's a clear conflict of interest in the statement and it should be obvious why this is bad social conduct and bad optics to anyone with a brain.Do I think it would be a better fit to have a trans person voice act a trans character? Perhaps, it'd be interesting to see all the "people" have an aneurysm when their expectations don't match reality. It'd also be some exposure to "otherness", something a lot of low-intelligence people could probably use in their life to become more well-rounded individuals.>GBVS has 1 (possibly 2, Cagliostro is up for debate) trans women in its roster and no trans women were even sent sides to audition.>When I asked the studio personally about this, I was promptly deleted from their roster and blacklisted with no response.Imagine my surprise when people don't want to touch the optic equivalent of a hot glowing hot stove.
>>682044235I liked the P3 Reload dub.
>>682045181Then get rid of dubs as an industry practice
>>682040257latinks?
>>682040257This explains everything if its true
>>682039024replace them both with ai
>>682045473latinks is no joke. always make sure your pork is fully cooked
>>682041382This is every ideology where someone claims they care for the downtrodden.The "downtrodden" is them and as soon as they feel a little better about themselves they become authoritarian assholes because fuck the downtrodden I got mine.
But aren't transwomen women? If that's true, and that is what troons been arguing for years, then a bio woman voicing Bridget should be fine.
>>682044235witcher 3, I still think english cast is good but I prefer the polish ones now
When I played FFXIV 10 years ago, I always had jap dub on because the English acting was insufferable.That was just for cutscenes I couldn’t skip.
its like trannies want everyone to hate them

>>682042252>trannies want actual women to go back to the suffrage era where they aren't even allowed to vote or have jobsChat is this real? WTF I love trannies now!
I think English dubs should be abolished since 90+% of the characters in Japanese media are Japanese, and none of these hack losers are Japanese themselves. It is not racially accurate, so their vocation should be gutted.
>>682039024Wuk Lumat's voice actor should quit and let a REAL Hrothgar voice the character!

If women were not literally children mentaly, I believe we could have formed an alliance against trannies.

>>682047614Less HRT more schizo pills, Sena.
>>682047294All trannies are piece of shit. It's literally impossible for a tranny to be a good person.
>>682039024This is a pathetic investigation to be honest.You hate a character so much you go through all their tweets or whatever to find a reason to call them out. That’s fucking sad, man.Get a life.

>>682047903I don't trust polls Atlus posted on their forums at 3 AM and only kept up for five hours.The only people put out by reading captions are the blind and the illiterate. More people watch media with subtitles now than ever beford, thanks in part to horrible audio mixing. But a big part of it is young people with a background of watching and playing weebshit.We can easily do away with dubs forever, and we should. Every one of these VAs are worthless parasites and their orbiter cults need to learn that they'll only survive if they get real jobs.
>>682041425Then remove dubs, simple as that.

>>682047725>I hate this recent fascination of glorifying VA's. Where did it come from all of a sudden?Dumb fucks who think VA is a cushy well-paid job they can get into someday. Too bad there are tens of thousands of weebs just like them thinking the same thing. Anyone who's already in is parasitizing the industry and will gladly shut out newcomers and fuck over their colleagues, hence the troon.Voiceover acting is literally lower than dinner theater when it comes to acting prestige. Dinner theater performers actually do fairly well.
>>682039024Consider this: Bridget a cute.
>>682039640Puerto Rican (Kentucky born) tranny btw
>>682044235The two Japanese franchises that I will always play in English are Final Fantasy and Sonic the Hedgehog. Feels weird hearing Sonic speak Japanese.
>>682039024>according to this scenario, cis woman voicing trans women is hateful and bigoted>but according to hogwarts legacy with its trans character drama, trans woman voicing trans women is hateful and bigotedso my personal takeaway is lets get rid of voice acting altogether, make everybody read again.

This actually happens really frequently in the English dub VA space. Even over the past 2 or 3 years, we have seen several prominent (and pretty good) VAs replaced or harassed out of their roles to put in someone that is better minority representation fitting the role, and it usually results in someone who is plainly bad at voice acting getting the role. On top of that we have seen multiple instances of English minority voice actors going on the offensive on social media to decry cishet white people playing minorities, and then getting mad when they get type-cast into their specific minority demographic (see: prozd)
>>682039024How does a bad VA no one heard of get a lead rule in a 10+ year old mmo's story in the first place?
>>682049910nepotism

It's actually incredibly problematic to let transvestites voice female characters as it feeds into their delusion.

>>682050626It is an actress and a real woman, cope and seethe, for a trans woman is a woman :)
>>682047427Getting rid of dubs won't make a difference so long as the english script is "localized". The dub actors just record lines from a script that was written weeks or months before the voice recording sessions start.>>682044235Sonic Frontiers.

>>682039359Always choose subbed whenever possible in the options menu because it's just better without the drama Dubs have around them and the lower quality they bring to the table.
>>682039024/v/ won't admit it but she's right.Marginalized and oppressed groups such as Transgender, Non-Binary and Queer folx need more roles in the industry.Sadly cisheteronormative people won't let go of their privileges unless we use force.
