    Flynn still voices him in HotS and Warcraft 3, where Blizzard naturally didn't bother to change it.

    Which made Kael'thas ironically one of the few characters that has had a consistent VA in every appearance.

    nah, you can't change a voice actor like that and purge it from people's minds, it doesn't work like that

    there's so much more problematic stuff in the game, I think it can't be salvaged

    the entire game has to be purged from existence

    In theory you go into your game's data files, delete the current voicelines, replace them with the original ones and you're set, but as said above, you're not allowed to do that.
    In overly complicated theory, there are addons that interact with your settings to switch off certain sounds in places predetermined by you. I don't think it would be too difficult to set it to mute Kael during his BC voice lines and then just play, from your own PC separate from the game, the OG voice clips. Would be a lot of work for little reward. Could also do it for the "Watch you clever mouth, bitch!" line.

Whining about "cancel culture" is just whining about there being consequences for a person's actions. False accusations of any kind are really shitty, but that's not an excuse to stop holding people accountable.
    I doubt his future job opportunities will benefit from this fiasco, you are wrong about why people whine about cancel culture. It's more than just consequences its about censorship. Shame on blizzard for acting so hastily and not retracting their decision.
