I do not know if it is just me, but this scene came immediately to mind, followed by a slight /palmface:

@ 0:44

"....Why is he Jamaican?"

[xxskyshadowxx]

I had three thoughts:

1. How come this is day one DLC?
2. Aw well, I'll play as-is and then buy the DLC after playing my game vanilla.
3. After seeing the ending: Ohhhh that's why it was day one DLC....cuz after seeing this I wouldn't give them more money.

In the past they were Jamaican? I hope he doesn't wear a rasta hat.......

I thought he was going to babble on about Zion and Haile Selassie and try to convert me to Rastafari. "The bong is ova ere' Commanda.

[halbert986]

why doesn't he have wings like the collectors?

Why is he such an unhelpful ass?

It's not a jamaican accent. It's african.

That.

Also I thought "Liara is going to be sorely disappointed with this one."

[aksoileau]

That is not a Jamaican accent...

I for one thought it fit great. He sounded wise and exotic.

The voice of Javik was provided by the writers' pot dealer.

Ey mon, I give you straight up deal on the good stuff if you put me in da game.

Dead on. That sounded west african to me. Which is good, because it's a beautiful voice.

[CRISIS1717]

You guys seriously can't talk about the character without resorting to stereotyping?

I personally have no problem with Javik, I had the same general feeling about his character that Liara did though.

A powerful and mysterious race and then they turned out to be Romans but even crueler.

Every time I went to see him, I expedted smoke to pour out when I opened the door.

"Xalek. My name is Xalek."

[ThatGuy39]

Kept waiting for him to say "Jah love be wit you, Shepard, Mon" and kept looking for the herb in his quarters.

[lokiarchetype]

I thought he sounded Kenyan, it's definitely a more African sounding accent... I think

Then again, after the Zaeed threads last game, its clear a lot of us can't tell the difference between an Australian and a British accent so...

First impressions were: interesting design, very interesting accent. Kind of a jerk. Warmed up to him later, though.

Yep, this. I never thought he sounded Jamaican. Nigerian, yes. Caribbean, hell no.

As for what I thought about Javik. Actually I liked him a lot. He made me think that all Prothians were a**holes, but he brought a lot of clarity and emotion to the missions. He had a lot of deep expression to his face that was lacking in a lot of the other characters, which is a shame for them.

I would have liked Djimon Hounsou en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djimon_Hounsou for the role though.

^^ This.

I like Javik.
He seems to think his job is to troll the **** out of the other characters.

Well, the room was kinda foggy looking. And he rapped with Shep about some really heavy sh*t.

[Rickin10]

Oh thought, ' Oh sh*t this is gonna lead to an outcry of ''Bioware are racists'' .' Had a horrible Jar-Jar flashback.

[DannieCraft]

I thought there really must be more containers like his. I mean, seriously, 1 living Prothean out of how many? and his container was not even stored on Ilos. And then he has a "memory tablet", how many of those things are on Ilos?! we should go back there and have Javik remembering everything there is to remember and then share the ancient knowledges.

[howieloader]

My thoughts were: "Not sure if serious......."

[moteh]

I thought he was a great character, not necessarily likeable, but a good character. he has this sadness to him, and it's not from some humans thinking he has a Jamaican accent either, but from being a person basically lost in time now.

Definitely African accent, I feel bad for not being able to differentiate it more though. Just shocked people thought it was Jamaican.
