      I'm conflicted about people saying the accents in #Cyberpunk2077 are racist. I know people from different cultures don't -have- to have accents, but many of them are voiced by people representing those cultures. How can you expect a Japanese native not to have a Japanese accent?

      The issue, it seems to me, isn’t that the Japanese characters who come from Japan have accents, but rather the larger way in which they and other people of color are positioned as outsiders and used to add exotic flavor to the game world. Here’s a good thread about the issues:https://twitter.com/Kavaeric/status/1338554914218369024 …

      California is a state with a rich Asian history (and not just that of the Chinese and Japanese!), and seeing CP77 continue to treat East Asians as some kind of invasive force in its environment and characters is, well, ridiculous, to put it mildly.

          Like, most of the Asians you meet are either Arasaka or Tyger Claws. Where are all the Asian Americans whose families have been in the US for generations and who sound more like V?

          At every step of the first few hours of the game, anything Japanese is portrayed with antagonism. Arasaka, the Japanese megacorp you rob from on your first heist, is portrayed as the enemy. A radio host makes a jab about Japanese whaling and atom bombs.

          I've heard people complain about the accents, but that's not at all an issue. Honestly? Everyone in the game is a scumbag. Literally everyone. I do agree that the Arasaka company is shown as evil, but... everyone's evil. I think the only non-evil person I've seen was Hispanic.

          And OMG, he's amazing. I'm starting to find out one of the Japanese characters may be good. And Panam Palmer... she appears to be of Middle Eastern descent, but the game doesn't bring it up. She's appearing to be good. I guess... context is important.

          Thanks. I'm actually going to say that I had no clue the Tyger Claws were supposed to be Asian-specific; I'm 40 hours into the game, and they just seemed like a grab bag of people who liked looking like tigers.
