Growing up an insufferable weeaboo, I was a staunch believer in consuming media "the way the creator intended." Whatever the hell that meant. For me, it was watching or playing stuff in the language it was originally created for. Sub over dub, the classic.
Mercifully, I've long shed that ideology—partly thanks to getting older, but also because of a rapidly-waning attention span as a result of age that makes playing or watching things in English a whole lot less taxing on my brain. I'll happily watch dubbed anime these days and play my JRPGs in my native language, which is exactly what I did with Metaphor: ReFantazio.
