Regarding DynaBlaster, that was the official name of the Bomberman games in Europe back in the day, so they must have some licensing agreement in place.

The voice direction conversation reminds me of how much it bothered me in the first Life Is Strange, where all of the working class people had southern US accents, and only the working class people had southern US accents. I couldnt tell at the time if that was out of ignorance or prejudice or both, but it was an interesting decision.
