Would anybody mind or be in favor of a protagonist with an accent?

What accents?.... I think you mean British accent... not accents as the only one that features in most Bioware(and in games in general) games is the stereotypical, upper clash posh, bland, neutral south east english accent(i know these games are made with an american audience in mind first perhaps that explains it, as its the only one they understand/recognisable/go too brit/more so english accent for them. That & cockney). Most people in Britain do not sound like that. I credit the Witcher 3 for having so many different properly Brittish regional accents in the game not just sticking with the typical one. If ME:A are going to have Brit accents i'd like to see them spice it up like TW3 did. That'd stop it getting stale on that front.
Still makes me smile hearing all the Brummies in the Witcher series - especially "Those trebuchet's are fookin poundin' tha shi* out'f 'em" in TW2 ![]()
Though I wouldn't mind someone who sounds a bit like Michael Biehn for the male protagonist:

Or Jason Statham for an English angle ... or Konstantin Khabenskiy as his voice is cool as f**k ... though I may need to learn Russian ![]()

I'm officially declaring the movement to get Danny Dyer to voice the Protagonist.

Not a bad idea. After millennia, it's unsurprising if language deviation occurs. Actually, it's a natural language evolution as in Old English to "modern" English. This would necessarily be true for the Krogan and Solarian speech patterns as well.
Personally, it won't happen. Too much bother, cost and time for no value to Bio.

I find it very odd when Americans pronounce "writer" and "rider" such that I can't tell them apart.Americans most certainly do have accents. We mispronounce many words. We're sloppy with the double tt in the middle of words and pronounce them as Ds. Example: letter is pronounced ledder in American. And other words like route. In American the ou in the word is pronounced like ow making it rowt. In English and Australian it's pronounced root.

In fact they should base the game mood off this film.

Speak for yourself, really though. Sure, there's a whole lot of illiterate morons living in our country who mispronounce words all the time. That's not an accent, it's stupidity. That's like saying some dumb rapper has an accent because they pronounce the word "ask" as "axe".
Sure, there's regional accents all over. Mostly they're brought out by the way we use and stress our vowels. I'm an American and have lived here my entire life. I've only ever pronounced the word "letter" the exact way it sounds with double T's, and I pronounce the word "route" both ways: rowt and root (depends in what context I'm using it in)

Fair enough. Either way, wouldn't blame that on an American accent.

Not when Canadians say them. They even have different vowel sounds (it's called Canadian raising; we sharpen vowels immediately before unvoiced dentive stops).They do sound almost identical, almost.
Linguistics is a fascinating field of study.

that could explain it. I'm from the northeast, so not too much experience with our midwestern brethren.

I spent some time in Oklahoma.
To my untrained northeastern ear the locals all sounded like either Foghorn Leghorn or Big Dan Teague.

Everyone has an accent. So. . .yes, I'd hope they had an accent and were some sort of text-to-speech robot.
My preferred though? We need a hyper-stereotyped 'Deep South' option, especially if they're a fast talker and slur-string words together. Really badly. TO the point where aliens just look at you and go: 'Eh. . .alright, whatever you say'. More realistically, I'd say Midwest American or Northeastern American (Maine ETC).
Ooooh- CAJUN. ![]()
Or Southern French Accent. DO IT.
JUST- DO IT.

As long as the accent is either an English, Scottish or Australian accent I'm good (in fact I'd be in favor of that).
But please no accents from any non-native English speaker.

there was nothing natural about the shift from Old English to Middle English
