It's a difficult design problem, to be sure. Some voiced RPGs that allow you to name your character include the chosen character name in the dialogue in subtitles, but just skip over it in the voiced dialogue. This is distracting, too.

Also, you're all nerds. A fandom? For a video game? Pssh! *whistles innocently*

and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong
