it sounds more african than afro-carribean.

also i like it there is a lack of accents, relativly speaking.

Who is the VA anyway? I mean his name. And is he a black or white?

Well he has the accent of a native speaker. You should hear me speaking lol! I am told I am quite good at imitating the standart Holywood accent in a fluent way but if you had heard me you would immediately understand that I am not a native speaker.

That definitely isn't Afro-Caribbean by any stretch. It's obviously meant to be African, but outside sounding vaguely Western (there are bits that he sounds Nigerian, and others where he sounds way off), I can't pinpoint what it is. It also sounds affected, so his VA probably isn't actually African. If he is, he's likely using a modified accent.

I like the voice, just not the character concept.

I personally won't be buying this DLC, but I don't think that the people who do are being shortchanged or screwed by this approach to his voice acting.

The prothean, like Thane, would be using a translater. So why would there be any accent?
I think the accent is OK but conviction lacking.

Then why did Thane have a north American accent? 

There's no such thing as a person with no accent. Bioware had to go with something, and they, for their own reasons, went for something non-European and non-north American. I don't see the issue, personally. As long as he sounds appropriately badass in my game, I'm gonna be happy.

If he had a voice like vigil, it would only end up annoyin' me.

Gettin' a little racist up in here.

Stay classy, BSN.

Regarding accent variety, keep in mind that the Protheans as a single race were a galaxy-wide civilization that pretty much took up as much space as the current mishmash of races combined, and the only Prothean planet we've had a close enough look at for anything worth thinking about is Ilos--a single planet, on which we heard a scattered distress signal and conversed with a V.I.

This is to say that the Prothean civilization was certainly widespread enough that a veritable infinitude of dialects and accents could have sprung up quite easily, not counting however many may have existed before they took to the stars in the first place.

[jellobell]

@Saints_: What, specifically, is your problem with the voice? I think it sounds pretty cool, and it's not like we've heard any other Protheans talking for reference. Vigil was a Prothean VI who was incredibly degraded after millenia spent on Ilos, so he's not exactly the best example.

Why do people keep talking about Vigil regarding his accent?

A galaxy spanning civilization only has one accent right?

I've heard this prothean before

[ArchibaldWheeler]

One interesting thing maybe... the Jamaican Prothean says "the were muchu smaller in my cycle..." is he referring to the Reapers?

[Raizo]

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.

Why does no one ever sound arabic? Why!?!?
