Wicked’s Marissa Bode criticises jokes about Nessarose’s disability

As a dedicated gamer myself, I’d like to share my perspective on a topic that recently caught my attention. It’s about Marissa Bode, the talented voice actress behind the character, Nessarose, in the game Wicked. She’s spoken out against those who’ve made jokes about Nessarose’s disability. In my own words, I find it disheartening and disrespectful when people trivialize characters with disabilities for their entertainment. It’s important to remember that these characters are representations of real people, and they deserve our understanding and empathy, not derision. Let’s strive to create a more inclusive gaming community where everyone feels valued and respected.
