You know the bad thing? In the German version, it is 100% sure that he will just speak without any discernible accent at all...
Don't know why but german synchro companies seems to not like accents at all...
Happend with Halo Reach, and of course with ME1 and 2...
And a whole lot of other games and movies and such...

I was extremely disappointed to say the least. Between North African and Indian, there's no accent as funny or not-so-regal. It's a goddamned joke. I'm hoping more people shared this viewpoint so that BW would take notice and try to change something. I don't want to think of Coming To America whenever Protheans are mentioned. Vigil had the perfect voice; calm and sophisticated. Ugh...

It's true. When you grow up living in tree houses and have to outrun cheetahs for meals, etiquette gets tiresome.Africans can't be calm or sophisticated. Got it.

It's funny because I haven't even heard the voice in question, nor is there a link in the thread that I'm aware of.
I guess I'm just used to other forums.

F***ing typical response. It's one thing if you just don't like the accent, but to say that it doesn't "fit" is playing at stereotypes.slimgrin wrote...

I think what bothers me most is that such an advanced civilization shouldn't have a thick African accent......
"An advanced alien sounds like a black man? Well thats just silly! Maybe a race of brutes like the krogan could sound black, but never an advanced alien race!"
Lets play teh race card yet again shall we?

What could they really do to make the protheans sound more alien besides add a ton of filters to make him difficult to understand without subtitles?
Would we even be having this conversation if he sounded like a regular old American white guy? Maybe he should have sounded British or French, Not cockney or Quebecois, though.
He should sound like a mockingbird.
Maybe the protheans weren't monitoring Earth for humans, but for mockingbirds ...
Now all I can think of is that old video "How To Kill A Mockingbird", where Mockingbirds were actually giant spaceships that were totally invincible, and there were hundreds more waiting in space...
Its all coming together. The Reapers are Mockingbirds.

Africans or the ancient ancestors of humans may have had contact with Protheans and therefore copied their accent. So Africans actually sound like Protheans instead of it being the other way around.
That's more or less what I said earlier. It makes sense to me. It'll be awesome if it's explored more in game.
Like this hasn't been done before.
