The Genshin Impact team recently announced that Tighnari’s English voice actor, Elliot Gindi, will no longer be voicing the character in the game. All this due to a sharing of some alleged screenshots containing the voice actor’s sexual misconduct with several fans.

Gindi said the screenshots are true, but he denies knowing his partners were underage. More than 50 of her fellow Genshin Impact voice actors expressed their condemnation and outrage over Gindi’s alleged sexual misconduct.
