Worth mentioning they don't know if it's mihoyo or the studio that's at fault here. So there could be some corruption going on, the money flowing in the wrong pockets. Do we know of similar complaints from Japanese / Chinese / Korean voice actors?

Boettger weighed in on the situation with a Twitter thread of her own, stating she hasn't been paid in "months," before adding, "Just to be clear, we don't know if this is the fault of the studio, or the game company. But regardless, if the game was union this wouldn't happen."

Of course, ultimately, mihoyo are the ones who have to act here regardless. So even if the issue isn't with them directly, the longer they wait with resolving the problem the more it'll be their fault for inaction anyway.
