      Like SerLava just said, when there is a history of picking offensive names for minority characters it's not just squinting for it or trying to find the worst interpretation. Especially given the reason the character was added to the game to try to hand wave away some criticism.

        Yeah I also just looked up the meaning of the name Ryan, which people like that absolutely do, and it's also Celtic. It means "little king". Come tf on

          It's a common Irish surname. Might as well be smith or jones or park or something.

            Yeah they don't really have a tradition of naming their characters Brian Smith and Paul Jones and Mary Davis and Kevin Johnson

      No reason to give her or the enormous number of people involved in this character's creation the benefit of the doubt
