I've found two videos that surfaced on Youtube recently that were leaked from the ME3 demo. These clips are apparently the Prothean sqaud mates voice. I think the voice doesn't suit him at all. They could have went for a more unique, maybe ancient sounding voice. Just my opinion though.

Please don't complain about spoilers. You're in the spoiler section..

Anyway here they are,

Seriously? lol? i genuinely don't think i could take the geth seriously if he was in my squad

edit: sorry i mean prothean

[D3SM0ND0]

I was kinda hoping the Prothean would sound like Vigil

[d.nichols]

I don't understand how people are saying an African accent doesn't match the Prothean. I would be much more off-put if he spoke with an English, New Englander, Midwest or Australian accent. NOW THAT would be weird.

He sounds too human. That's weird because he's not a human.

I really like his voice.

Half the aliens in the games sound too human, if that's a thing.

There is nothing wrong with his accent, get over it, not every Ancient and Powerful race has to have the deep booming voice or speak in ye olde english.

Whats your point? The turians and salarians are not human, and they sound really human so?
They don't sound weird because we got used to their voices. The prothean voice sounded weird to me at first as well, because it has a very distinctive accent, but I think we will get used to it. Think about the quarians, like Shala'Raan, they have a lot of human caracterisc accents, from british to middle eastern.

You mean how Tali sounds like she's middle eastern... or some say East Europe -I don't hear it-
Garrus sounds like some New york/Chicago Wise guy
Wrex just has a really deep voice
and Liari sounds like a dork in ME1

Hell Legion and Mordin are the only two who sound really alien... and that because mordin talks a mile a minute and Legion's a robot!

I've been hearing the prothean's voice again and the only thing that is a bit off is his combat voice, like when he says "the way is ova hea commanda!" that made me laugh. But his normal speaking voice sounds really cool.

[DRUNK_CANADIAN]

Would really like spoiler disclaimer b4 reading.

[DJZoSo]

I dig it, it is a Kenyan accent though. I think it's great.

[Julia343]

Please remember that the voice is completely compressed in those samples on youtube -- if I had to guess I'd say about 20:1 compression @ 128 kbps low quality the compression brings up the doubled voice to the same level as the primary voice. I seriously doubt it will be like that in game. In game we'll be hearing high fidelity 5.1 surround.

PS: Liara was a dork in ME1. She was supposed to be. Still she was a cute dork.

I'm still trying to figure out what an "ancient sounding voice" is.

[P_Bed]

it makes sense to make his accent african. The cradle of life anyone? Ever heard about how Milena ago sub Saharan Africa was a fertile paradise and now it's..well, sub Saharan africa.

It's like Bioware hasn't learnt anything from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. Now ME3 has it's very own Jar Jar Binks. As someone who was born and grew up in the Caribbean I find this to be highly racist and offensive.

Racism is the inherent belief that one race is superior to another.

Making a character have a (Nigerian?) accent is not racist.

Please people, stop shouting "racism" for everything.






...I hope the Prothean dances like Carlton Banks.

[Rulycar]

The Human race is superior ... to the Council.

[Xerxes52]

The Prothean sounds great imo, more so with the extra voice effects.

[Troller79]

more ppl like the voice haha we win

I'd like to point out that I have nothing against the choice of the accent, and I neither like nor dislike the, uh, THE VOICE.

Having said that, this theory you brought up has been brought before, and frankly it makes no sense. The Cro-Magnon the Protheans were studying lived 35 000 years ago. It's not as if their language, or worse, accent (?!) translated to ****** Sapiens...

Furthermore, you're implying that the Protheans - who lived all across the galaxy - all talked with a similar accent to those that were studying Earth. Which is, well, beyond unlikely

I don't know why there must be such a fuss over the voice. Okay, some people's expectations weren't met, it happens. There's no need to find any hidden meanings or throw accusations like "Goddamit Bio, my subjective expectations weren't met - it means you don't care about the fans!"

ahhh, it'll grow on you.
