Hey kind people! What about my question about accents?

Why do you think there are no Slavonic accents in Dragon Age?
And what do you think about using Russian or Polish accent in a fantasy game such as DA?

and I want to add that Scottish Sebastian sounds awesome<3

His eyes, and Elthina's eyes, they look quite a bit different from the eyes in DA Origins. More light reflective, and less flat. I really like this particular change, but I wonder if it applies to all the characters?

I don't see why it wouldn't. Lady Hawke has some crazy bright blues.

I'm not fond of the unnaturally colored, unnaturally bright irises, but that's just me. The eyes look much more alive and that's the important part

Varric's eyes don't seem to have that same sort of gleam, though. But maybe that's because his eyes are more deepset into his face. Also, from what I've seen of Carver's face and Bethany's face, their eyes also don't seem to stand out that much. I'm wondering if there has been a very recent change to the eyes overall.

Depends on if the Dev's make up a location in Thedas where those accents are used.  Or tweak people (like the Dalish).  It probably also depends on available voice actors too I would imagine.

I think a Polish accent would be interesting to have.  (has nothing to do with being 25% Polish as an American melting pot amorphous blob )

Aye, "murdur" was a dead giveaway That voice sounds very familiar, but I can't quite place it.

Curious about whether he's actually a rogue or if instead he's got a character-specific skill tree instead (like Izzy's Duelist track). Presuming the latter myself.

His look like a more natural color. Some of the brighter colors come off as metallic to me.

Blah, I really don't like the candy colored eyes XD I think that's my only complaint so far. He's one feature away from having a believably lifelike face.

Uh, any specific reason there should be any? I mean, there exist hundreds of accents in the world, if not more.

Not that this means I'm against Slavic accents or anything. I'd personally have no trouble at all with whatever accent BioWare decides to use in DA2.

It's settle, then. DA IV will have a brazillian protagonist. God knows how.

Well, all the Bethany romance threads I saw got shut down instantly. Only PG discussions of her assets (<_<) were permitted and requests for romances were rather directly denied. Example from a blog:

It turns out that Hawke, the protagonist (kind of?) travels Ferelden with his sister, Bethany, something which has caused quite a stir on the Bioware forums regarding romance options – Baldur’s Gate set the trend here (I will never forgive them for not allowing Imoen to be romanced, anyway, she was only your half sister via divine blood – totally fair game), but David Gaider set the community straight.

I know the mere idea of this is going to cause some people to go into paroxysms, but in a Dark setting I think the possibility of the main character engaging in an incestuous relationship with his sister could make for some very interesting role play opportunities. Not only do you have to deal with the taboo nature of the relationship, but the added dynamics of dealing with a sibling. This is the sort of “pushing the envelope” that I think Dragon Age as a setting is ripe for.

Love, between two consenting adults, is a beautiful thing that should be cherished. Why should it matter who those two people are, whether brother/sister, two homosexual people, a man and a woman or otherwise? Why is it acceptable, in a game, to have a relationship between a Dwarf and a Human, but not between (example) two siblings?
- Another Hopeful

This is not going to happen, and the fact that it’s even being requested makes me wonder.
- David Gaider, Lead Writer, Dragon Age II

I have never personally discussed Bethany anywhere. I suspect my character, however will name his right hand something starting with B.

Oh, and I've never been on the ME2 forums for anything. Rented ME2, played through it once, hated the story (or lack thereof) and never looked back. I did however see some interesting vids about Tali's romance.

Squee.  There 

I promised myself I wouldn't get overly excited for anything.  I will calm down in a few minutes.  But for right now--HAWT DIGGITY DAMN.

This. And also, HOLY SMOKING HAWT. Scottish accent

So much for all the theories about the Signature Edition companion being female. xD
There's not much to judge from this video, but I think he sounds fairly interesting so far.

I'm resigned to the fact that I just plain don't like the new style. Any of it, really. That doesn't mean that I don't like that style of the backgrounds. If those were rendered differently I'd find them fine, I think. Anyway, at this point, for me, it all hangs on the story and the characters. Those can make up for a lot.

If you want to find out if Sebastian's a love interest, you'll just have to pick all the flirt lines and see what happens...

Wait a second! There are flirt  lines? 

*tries really hard not to get her hopes up* 

I sure hope it's not like this:
Hawke:  "So Sebastian, the stars are out..."
Sebastian: "Go help Varric prepare dinner. I need to find those assasins" *walks away*

It could well start that way, the when you've only just begun flirting with him. He could become more responsive later on as the game progresses. :innocent:

It wasn't my intention to imply there should be some Slavic accents in DA.
I just wanted to know if you and other people think there is any specific reason why there are none. They are quite distinctive I guess and I thought maybe people generally don't like the sound of them.

Sorry for being so off-topic, I couldn't restrain myself and not ask you about that

Well, it didn't sound like you had such an intention anyways. I see what you mean.

With medieval settings, developers seem to go for native accents first, and then maybe throw in some French, Italian or Russian for that exotic feeling, you know. It's almost traditional. Otherwise I don't expect any particular reason for them to deliberately exclude other accents.

A post like that requires some musical accompaniment.

I found the Samara scene quite
touching. Although that moment could never be truly replicated IMO, it
would be cool to see something along those lines in my FemHawke
playthroughs.

I found it to be awesome. And very fitting. But sad at the same time because she was so fantastic and drew my Shepard's intense admiration. Great character.

With Sebastian, however... I could far more easily hear "sweet of you, but I prefer my own sex" than "sorry, sex just isn't on the table because I'm religious." Samara's reasons were so much more interesting than the latter of those two.

Unless of course you could change his mind. Then I wouldn't be sad at all. *sweeps her kinky thoughts under the rug*
