Only lines with voice work for me, even though there are plenty of great unvoiced lines across games. Sorted by game… I think this post certainly puts me of a generation.

“My emperor! I’ve failed youuuu!”
“Fox, get this guy off me!”
“You’re good, but I’m BETTER!”
“Never give up, trust your instincts!”
“IF THIS DOES NOT WORK!”

Honestly one of the most quoteable games ever made.

“Stay a while and listen.”

“My hotel’s as clean as an Elven arse!”
“Whaaaat?!”
“Tiax shall smite ye.”
“Heya, it’s me Imoen.”

“MASSACRE!”
“Not yet!”
“hyut hyut hyut”

“My fists never betray me!”
“Don’t stand behind me.”
“I’m gonna sleep well tonight!”
“The feeling… It’s… coming back!”
“Good vibrations!”

“Hello brother! […] I live on in this arm!”
“Laugh, and grow fat!”
“What was that just now?”

Love a good ham. We need more of them in video games.

“I’mma Luigi, number 1.”
“Falcon PUNCH!”

“You’re going the wrong way!”
“Retired!”

“You require more vespene gas!”
“All crews operational.” / “Battlecruiser operational.” ?
“En’taro Adun executor.”
“I do this for Auir, not you!”
“Your base in under attack.”

“So what shall it be? Will you join the Unity or will you die here? Join… DIE! Join… DIE!”

“Doctor required in inflator room.”

“[…] to the last place uncorrupted by Capitalism! SPACE!”

We acknowledge that the game is a work of fiction. Historical fiction, but fiction none-the-less.

If every fifth character is also black, I think there is a point that can be made about verisimilitude and taking liberties; but since we know he really existed and that there has been debate on what he did, having a work of fiction that portrays him as a samurai under Nobunga doesn’t seem unreasonable.

To compare, we know that Leonardo Di Vinci didn’t hand out guns to people or build functional flying machines - but we know he designed all sorts of stuff ahead of its time, so it kinda fits in a fictional story with him in.

But only one of those seems to draw huge amounts of complaints online… And it’s actually the less historically accurate one.

That’s a potentially interesting definition.

Dream Daddy, the daddy dating sim isn’t a woke game in this context because the conceit of it being an LGBT friendly town with a bunch of single gay dads makes it all make sense.

But a game set in 1300s Japan with a lesbian white protagonist would be woke because that seems incongruous?

But Dragon Age was never good, either.

The first one was mediocre at best with some good ideas, and it was all downhill from there.

Fair enough.
Be the change you want to see and all that.

I personally love the mad spelling, but I can understand that other folks don’t.

It’s certainly simpler, I’ll give you that.
It takes too much mental energy to read that document.

May I ask why at all?

Do you plan to do all digraphs, or just th?

Will you split out the different vowel phonemes to their IPA?

I’m just intrigued by the thought process behind your choice of typed characters.
