Why is it almost certain? Has this been indicated anywhere?

He has a name. He HAS to be a certain race. The only option is male/female/appearance/class. Sound familiar?

Oh yeah, he/she'll have a voice. To expect otherwise is foolish.

I want Elijah Wood.

*Barkspawn eats tainted darkspawn feces*

Hawke proclaims "Barkspawn, No!"

No one American, unless they can do a damn good British accent.

Why? It's not set in Ferelden.

The male Hawke is voiced by the same actor who voices Gordon Freeman.

[DA:O sidequest spoilers]

I'd prefer no voice work for Dragon Age 2 at all, voicework only limits the player's choices and style instead of making it interesting. Mass Effect has the story of Commander Shepard, he's this one single person who no matter what is a military (wo)man with a past and forced to be sent on an adventure, Dragon Age: Origins on the other hand was more of a general scope.

I've only played Human Nobles in Dragon Age, yet I felt like I played four different characters. Why? Because there isn't voice acting, who the character and what he did was entirely up to me. I made one of my human nobles a spoiled brat who's never worked a day in his life, while the other was a kind noble who assisted in everybody's matters and was.. let's say, charming.

My character wasn't defined by the voicework, I wasn't forced to pick three choices and choose the one I liked the most, I picked the one that my character actually was. My prefered playthrough is one where I go around and tease my party members and respond sarcastically whenever possible, he's just that type of person. I felt more a bond with these characters than any of the Mass Effect characters, I genuinly cared for Alistair and Leliana's troubles and when I said to Alistair (after the Goldanna quest) that I was sorry it turned out that way - it wasn't because my character was sad, I honestly felt horrible and wished it could've went better.

While voice acting would entertain the 'mass effect crowd', I'd loathe it.

Yeah, but Hawke is a survivor of the Blight, which only happened in Ferelden.

That could mean anything from him/her being an adult to being a baby. Doesn't necessarily determine the accent.

I believe it was mentioned it was 10 years after the Blight, if he was a baby than the character would be 11-12.

People do move, so the character could still be from there.

If we could have a series of VO options like in DAO, then hopefully we could choose from a few accents, but I have a feeling we're stuck with 1 VO per gender
