I don't know if I'll be able to handle Orlais.

Spending the entire game listening to people speak English with horrible Canadian French accents might be too much for me to handle.  Please tell me Orlais has not been confirmed. 

Anyone remember the Paris portion of the original Deus Ex?  *shudder*

Play with subtitles on and press the mute button. Or, maybe they'll have the dialogue audio separate from normal dialogue, and you can just turn that off and have the subtitles on.

Or get over the accents.

Why would you assume they'll be canadian french? They haven't done it before. Duke prosper de montford was an Authentic frenchman.Also you're being a bit insulting to canadian french people.

Also, this is well past locked in and not going to change. They are already recording the dialogue and may have even finished it by now.

You say it's a horrible french-Canadian accent but that just might make it a fantastic Orlesian accent. We use what we know and immediatley compare but Thedas is supposedly another world entirely. All admit my ear for accents is probably less developed that others but as long as I can understand what is being said then I have absolutely no problem with them

I think the entire game should be in French - with English subtitles.

Now THAT'S authenticity.

Make it happen Bioware!

Because the game is being made by Canadians.

I agree.  That would be an extremely bold move but I would like that even though I don't speak French.  I can handle subtitles.  I played the Witcher 2 in Polish.

Nothing personal, you guys just have annoying accents.  Not being Canuck-phobic, I'll be the first to tell you how much I hate Southern accents and poor Southern grammar.  "Them are on the table."  UGH!

There`s different french accent in Quebec and when doing voice over for movies it's ''standard french accent'' .
I doubt you know much about french-canadian so Ill leave it there.

I'm Canadian and I don't really think that the Orlesian accent sounds like a Quebecois accent. That being said I found the Orlesian accent to be very amusing myself.

The accent is actually French, not French Canadian.


Also, shut up.

What's wrong with the Orlesian/French accent?

Personally I can't wait to hear them all exclaiming about stinky cheese.

I think there is a lot of missattribution of different accents. Being canadian I always cringe when in TV or film claims someone is from toronto or western Canada and then slaps em with a Newfoundland accent. Having spent a lot of times with people in the maratimes there is a big difference say between a Nova Scotian accent, a PEI accent, and a Newfoundlad accent. Even Cape Breton island a part of nova scotia has its own distinct dialect. I know someone who can pick out which part of scotland your from because of your accent, whether it be Edinbourgh or Glasgow. I'm pretty sure Quebec city and Monteral have different accents but since I lack familiarity with them I cannot be certain nor distinguish one from the other.

I'm pretty sure when people hear a French accent and it doesn't fit with their perception of the Parisian accent they immediatly assume French Canadian where it could be South African rural France or just someone attempting to imitate any of those.

But since Thedas is a different world lets forget the semantics and just call it an Orleasin accent.

Don't worry, the whole game doesn't take place in Orlais, so take a break Ferelden or the free marches when it gets too much. Its hit and miss, so Orlesian accents are divine, some you want to punch them un the face repeatedly with a pride demon

Fereldan turnip is a reference to the mark of the assassin dlc, stop moaning about newbies...it doesn't take a newbie to act like an idiot...something you have proven yourself. Being new to a dragon age forum does not signal a lack of intelligence or knowledge of the series.
