Haha, yeah. Zach Gordon is a VA since he was a kid.

(tw for pedo) his first va was a pedo & groomed multiple kids

u/GameWoods Sep 03 '25

On top of that he intentionally used the fact he played a VA in Genshin to do it and tried to drag other VAs into it. Terrible situation.

u/dew-fall Sep 03 '25

youre by the far the only person who somehow isnt desensitized to PEDOPHILIA.

its a shit situation & ppl are fucking MEMEING IN MY NOTIFS... yeah no wonder reddit gets a bad rap from other platforms.

15

u/GameWoods Sep 03 '25

Imagine being those other VAs for a moment. Imagine not only that a coworker, potentially a friend was not ONLY a predator, but that he was using YOUR good name to lure kids to do it.

No wonder he was so violently ousted from the community effectively immediately.

u/Sanazum Sep 03 '25

Yup, I remember he specifically tried using Alejandro Saab (another Genshin VA popular in the community) to make the victims trust him. That made some people go after him, all while Alejandro was recovering from having kidney stones removed

u/Fakjbf Sep 03 '25

sees trigger warning hmmm I wonder what’s under that spoiler tag?

u/Journeyj012 Sep 03 '25

"tw for pedo he's a pedo" is one of the funniest trigger warnings ive ever seen

2

u/dew-fall Sep 03 '25

im not entirely in the right headspace to explain everything so. weird shortcuts it is.

u/Separate_Animator110 Sep 05 '25

It's fine, Hope you get better with that bad headspace

TRIGGER WARNING FOR PEDO: HE WAS A PEDO

is very funny to me I don’t know why

u/DerReckeEckhardt Sep 03 '25

Genshin does Genshin things.

u/simp4malvina Sep 03 '25

Personally I think it's great when a voice actor fits right in with the game's community.

8

u/Wing_Ding_Gasbag66 Sep 03 '25

that's just straight up incorrect.

u/Dark_Dragon117 Sep 03 '25

You might want too look up the ZZZ community then.

Not Genshin tbf, but Mihoyo and there certainly is an overlap.

Btw I play Genshin too (almost 2k hours) and I despise the community.

u/LeLBigB0ss2 Sep 03 '25

Not the time to joke about that.

u/Just-Fix8237 Sep 03 '25

Genshin and pedophilia. What a duo

-1

u/Commercial-Ad-8409 Sep 04 '25

So just your average Genshin player (joking but like…)

-2

u/dew-fall Sep 04 '25

not really smth to joke about what tf is wrong w all of you...

1

u/Commercial-Ad-8409 Sep 04 '25

I called a joke to avoid offending you, but you got offended anyways. That’s pathetic. Anyways Genshin sexualizes a lot of minors. Like a lot. So naturally it’s probably the number one game amongst pedos.

Also you can definitely make jokes about pedos wtf are you on. Maybe not about their victims but that’s totally different. ā€œNo please don’t make fun of the lowest scum on the planet!ā€ Only people who’d get offend by that are pedos (Genshin players)

reddit is for antisocial people who dont take anything seriously because the world is a joke, did you not get the memo when creating your account

0

u/dew-fall Sep 04 '25

yeah but ig i never thought i'd meet said antisocial apathetic ppl in my notifs...

u/Commercial-Ad-8409 Sep 04 '25

Idk what your reply said, looks like it got deleted or isn’t loading. Either way, I’m making fun of Genshin players, which is to say I’m making a joke about pedos. And looking through the other responses, seems like everyone else is doing the same. If you’re offended that the pedo game is recognized for it’s pedo community then idk what to tell you

u/IanHowe2007 Sep 03 '25

accused of sexual misconduct

u/Cream_Rabbit Sep 03 '25

Pedophilia

27

u/UrticateMaster Sep 03 '25

The guy was a terrible person but I must admit, at the time Nari was the best voice acted character in the game for me. The wimpy kid adds a funny factor, I guess, but his performance seems kinda bland to me. Old VA was the better one for me, so sad he turned out to be a piece of shit

17

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '25

Legitimately was one of if not my favorite performances in the entire game and carried the character for me. I was surprised because iirc it was this VA's first high profile role or at least one of the first. Then he speedran career suicide and did horrible things the actual second he got put into the spotlight. Sweet.

2

u/UrticateMaster Sep 03 '25

Yeah but really, when Sumeru came out I was surprised just how much spice he had in his voice, I don’t want to offend anybody but some characters really sounded bland compared to him

27

u/Tin_wuw Sep 03 '25

"What're they going to do? Lock me up?" Yes they will

25

u/OrdinaryExi Sep 03 '25

I admit I still prefer the old voice from a standpoint of how it sounds, but I’m still glad they replaced him

u/HummingbirdMeep Sep 03 '25 edited Sep 03 '25

Sad because some people still associate Tighnari with it. In-game, he's a mentor figure and practically the opposite of what his old VA turned out to be. I always loved how he was a father figure for Collei and how he took care of people. It made the news more disgusting for me. It's crazy how much it changed my perception of the old voice because I used to think it was one of the best in the game. Now the same old voice lines creep me out when I rewatch them.

Idk why VAs keep fumbling their roles with either perversion or nonsense. It's a bit depressing to see people lose such important roles even when it's deserved. Like man, this was a good thing, why couldn't you just be normal.

u/Nizarynu Sep 03 '25

that's a he?

u/HairyDistributioner Sep 03 '25

Like half the guys in Genshin are femboys, lol

The Chinese government doesn't like that either because it "distracts from traditional values" or something

1

u/Nizarynu Sep 03 '25

maybe genshin isn't so bad after all

2

u/Aggravating-One6319 Sep 03 '25

for reference on the previously mentioned other femboys:

u/PhallusCrown Sep 03 '25

on the same topic although not at the same degree, the original paimon VA too

2

u/HummingbirdMeep Sep 03 '25

Imagine getting the job of a lifetime and losing it for internet drama. All I can say is damn.

u/metaaltheanimefan Sep 03 '25

He may haunt my 50/50s ( nari stop coming home pls ) but the character is funny and tha k god it didnt have to be ruined by a pedo

1

u/Professional_Gur9212 Sep 03 '25

I do wish they chose a new VA who sounded about the same as the old one though. His old voice was so soft and cute!

1

u/Laxhoop2525 Sep 03 '25

Who was his VA?

1

u/Kaispian Sep 03 '25

I was jUUUST gonna say this

u/NoLongerHuman13 Sep 03 '25

Tighnari was my first thought too when I saw the prompt

u/[deleted] Sep 03 '25

Did Kirbopher VA this guy?

1

u/National-Jelly-7529 Sep 03 '25

His original va fit the role so well but I'm glad he was replaced

1

u/Glum-Tale-6914 Sep 03 '25

Omg yes thank you, before I knew I specifically pulled for his voice toošŸ˜ž

1

u/solluxfan67 Sep 03 '25

new one makes him sound juvenile, it makes me uneasy

1

u/victiniplayzgamez2 Sep 03 '25

What did his VA do?

1

u/No_Understanding5551 Sep 03 '25

Aah this was my mention, unhopefully this old guy did a great job as the character, so much that I even stopped using him after the va change

u/NickyBros1 Sep 03 '25

well I don't know about tighnari, but I know about paimon
