The voice is pimp. Thumbs up.

Thumbs down for the spoiler btw.

They sounded that way because of the modifications, did you see a mouth on those things?  And again, why does it matter that he sounds just as human as all the other aliens?

Well you can say it's the reason why they sounded like that, but I don't know. At least it can be used as an excuse to give that new voice. Well what it matters, I just think it's immersion breaker and doesn't fit that thing at all.

PRE-ORDER CANCELLED!

Yeah if you boil down his problem, its baisicly this.
And there was I thinking we were in the 21st Century....Sort of depressing.

YOU HUMANS ARE ALL RACIST!

 

Every I hear that line I laugh and wish my Shepard could say...

I don't have a problem with the accent but I don't like the voice acting. Maybe it's because I don't have any visual context.

I love his accent, it's brilliant. I like how Protheans sound really... well... like he's from Africa. Haha. Not being racist. It sounds awesome.

OH NO WE GONNA ROCK DOWN TO REAPER AVENUE, AND KILL THEM WITH OUR FIRE.

Fyk0, you've not answered how do the other aliens having human voices not break your immersion but this one alien who at least has a refreshingly different voice, that can be associated with the oldest ancient cultures on our planet (due completely to that part of the world it's from the ancient unrecorded history there).

Now we know why the Prothean reaper failed.

I'm pretty sure that was Harbinger's voice you were hearing the whole time.

Africa is known as one of the places to have first held human beings, so I'm guessing that's why they chose the accent, as the whole Protheans came before us...guides us etc.

SPOILER about provided link.

"They were much smaller in my Cycle." - what does THAT mean?

Well... now that I think of it - maybe it's not about the Reapers... maybe, the Rachni? Or the Krogan or Yahg or something...

The voice sounds... I dunno - out of place, but whatever. I won't be using Prothy anyway..

I said it already, and it's because it looks like less humanoid and more insect to me, yet it sounds so human with weak attempt to edit it. Other races looks more or less human like. But like someone above posted, it might be better with visual. But when I hear just the sound I can't think anything except ordinary black man talking.

But when they screamed in combat, it didn't sound like Harbinger nor would have made sense to make him scream anyway, he just possessed control.

I like the voice. Its nice to have variety.

Too bad a Prothean squad-mate is one of the most obtuse and non-nonsensical additions Bioware could have possibly conceived for this game >_<

[scotkrow]

Fyk0 I know you've said that, you just haven't explained why the other races don't ruin your immersion, the turrians are upright dinosaurs, the krogan are insectoid bats, the salarians are salamanders, the asari have cuttlefish for heads. We don't even know what the quarian are under their suits, but grunt says they aren't as squishy and soft as humans and asari. They they're more tough like turians. So... how is bugs, amphibians, dinosaurs and fish on human bodies sounding human not ruining it, but one slightly more insectoid being that stands upright has a completely unique voice, and it does?

shiz man people still ****ing about the motherlovin prothean badass javick? i got a few words for you, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!

Maybe I would have thought like this too, if I would have heard for example salarians without visuals, but I just found it fit well with visuals and didn't think about it. Almost all races have their own tone in their voices, well Asari not as much but they look quite human, and when I heard the voices first time I thought it just fit. But now when I have seen (and heard) Collectors, I was just expecting the voice to be something totally different.

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? I'm African and I think this is fantastic, off as the accent may sound.

I would have thought that was obvious. English or American English is the neutral form of Earths dominant language. Likely in a far distant future with centuries of cultural exchange, dialects, accents and even whole languages would disappear or at least be greatly diminished - a bit in the same manner American English dialects vary less than the original English ones. Aliens would naturally choose to learn the dominant human language in it's neutral form. Giving an alien an accent endemic to a specific regional part of Earth is therefore doubly detrimental to immersion.

I thought this was sarcasm at first, but now I'm not so sure.

LOL!!! I literally busted out laughing and scared my cat. Now he's staring at me like I'm crazy. Oh my god... XD

If that was serious, then the dominant language would have been chinese, not english, being as chinese is the most commonly spoken language on the planet, followed by english, spanish and french.
