How precisely does Greek make more sense?


Tevinter was based on the Byzantine empire. They primarily spoke greek. 2+2=4


Based off it's history and culture? But it's not the Byzantine.


Obviously. I don't think the Byzantines ever practiced blood magic or opened portals to a metaphysical realm, polluted it, and created armies of darkspawn. There is a connection nonetheless, which is more than can be said for Russian accents.

Greeks are horrible. Russian accents are sexy, do I have to start posting examples?!?!

Eclipse your logic is not welcome here


Why must you prattle so? Russian accents... As unbelievably  sexy they are(Tali ftw). Would make no sense at all. Also dont deny yourself the logic. Remember a logic dose a day keeps the ignorance away.


Tali has a russian accent? :/ 


Yeah most Quarians(Female) seem to have a Russian accent in Mass Effect. I find this highly endearing.

None of the russians I know sound like that.  I don't know what accent Liz Sroka is trying to do... I always thought she was trying to do a vaguely middle eastern accent.

Russian would make make them seem more frightening albeit.



but from any other way you look at its totally pointless to mess with the lore of a major lore element just for kicks.

Are we debating on what accent is more sexy/realistic/logical/appeasing? Nice.. I thought we were all going to kindly voice our opinions and respectfully address our differences... Oh wait...

You thought it was Russian? It sounded like a hodge-podge of Russian, Romanian, and something...unidentifiable to my ears, to me. I was under the impression that Tali's VA just made up the accent.

I haven't heard a single Quarian with a russian accent - but I'd like someone to point them out. All of the admirals have english accents except for Shala-Raan whose accent is Iranian (I'm pretty sure anyway...).

I always heard Tali's accent as somewhere eastern european or maybe a bit Israeli



as for how those from the imperium should sound, I think definitely nothing from britain or nearby europe, I think some sort of eastern european accent would work pretty well

I'd love to see Bioware gave the Tevinters a Finnish accent, just for the reactions of everyone arguing Russian versus Greek. "Take a third option", indeed.

And you confused people thinking that Russian women are hairy? France is not part of the Russian Federation. :whistle:

There was that one Tevinter non-mage we met with an accent. Let me see if I can find a clip.

Edit: Here. At around 1:36. I couldn't place the accent so I asked Mary later, and she confirmed he was Tevinter.


I don't want to be mean or offend you but you've already made that joke once...

PS: Romanians don't really have an accent, unless they are speaking english without knowing it or if you talk about the Moldavia-romanian accent (those speak even romanian weird). But yeah Tali sounds like she would belong here...

A Russian accent makes no particular sense to me.

I find this hard to believe.

As for the accent, I think it'll be some east European one.

God, what an awful thread - I hope they won't use any controversial accents just because some idiots WILL definitely use it to make moronic comparacments and insult other people.

Comparisions, sorry . Can't edit my post - it seems that social bioware is not very IPod friendly.

Whenever I try and picture Fenris' voice in my head, his accent sounds Middle Eastern, Lebanese to be specific (perfect example thisaway). The only things we know about Fen's VA is that he was asked for by name, is well-known in the business, and is quite excited for this opportunity. My guess is Keythe Farley (voiced Thane in ME2); if only that were true. *sigh* I'm such a sucker for deep, rumbly voices. Posted Image

According to the DA wiki Arcanum is supposed to be "a potential distant ancestor to English" so it would make sense if Fenris spoke with I don't know... a welsh or scottish or irish accent?

I meant we don't have a really particular accent (like italians have for example). If you listen to a romanian talking english you won't say "OMG he is romanian!". Of course there are different romanian accents (like the moldavian one) which transfer into any other language we talk (this is my opinion).

The famous "Numa numa" song is sang by an old romanian band which has split up. In the meantime, one of the singers recorded songs in english. Do you sense any accent? If i didn't know him, i would have said he is american. But when you hear him talk in romanian, he def has a moldavian accent.

"Numa numa" song


The new song


But yeah i am off topic.

Everyone has an accent. If someone sounds like they don't it just means their accent is similar to yours.

What sirOccam said. One guy who supossedly speaks without accent doesnt prove that all the Romanian (Italic language) native speakers speak standard (RP MW ect.) English.

It's not logic. Greek is not fitting for a mighty Blood Mage/Slavery country.

So you're saying that Russia is fitting for a blood mage/slavery country? Racist.
Sorry, couldn't resist it...

Seriously though, i'm sure i'll be happy with whatever BioWare has decided on.
