I never mentioned it before but there some quality Irish accents in Red Dead Redemption 2. There’s a rival gang called the O’Driscolls that sound like a bunch of messers outside a chipper at 2 in the morning. I felt kind of bad shooting them. Like killing one of me own!

It’s really powerful to hear accurate accents from back home. It almost never happens. Atlas from Bioshock and Father Gascoigne are the only other examples I can think of. It’s an amazing feeling of pride and one that helped me understand the power of representation in games.

Replying to @dannyodwyer
Absolutely. I have never heard my own unless the game was entirely dubbed to Portuguese, which doesn't count as representation.
