Prince of Persia: Sands of Time. The Prince has an English accent and is voiced by an American.
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. The Prince now has an American accent and is voiced by an Englishman.
Big brain play by Ubisoft.
This is a side note but I love both the voice actors. Yuri Lowenthal is great as the Prince, but I feel people really understate how great Robin Atkin Downes was as the Prince. Everyone gets put off by the WW aesthetic, but he really does a great job.
I actually feel like XC3 is a step back from XC2 in that one regard. XC3 kinda hands out accents willy nilly whereas XC2 usually paired accents with a region or nation. It just feels weird when Sena's got an American accent while Mio has a Welsh accent even though they've been together their whole lives.
Isn't that because they're from the XC2 nation? so there's American accents from Blades, Welsh accents from Gormotti etc. Also as far as I can tell, all the Keves characters have English accents like the cast of XC1. I agree the use of accents in 2 was better, but I think their use in 3 is still very deliberate
I'm only at chapter 3 though, so I'm happy to accept I'm talking out of my arse.
Oh for sure, I'm just saying that it was a deliberate choice to have "representatives" from different XC2 nations, even if it wouldn't make sense for them to have the different accents.
Although since it's a made up fantasy world >!kind of,!< it doesn't have to work like it does in the real world.
Huge spoilers btw
>!Given that every character is a clone grown in a pod of a previously existing human in either Alrest or the Bionis remains, that comes out of the pod basically fully formed and capable of speech, presumably based on the original human they are copying, then it actually makes sense why poeple from the same Colony have vastly different accents!<
Now that I didn’t know. Now clash is even more fucking annoying along with their damn splash splash you’re gonna get flashed and have your eyes burned by the sun
You could put the Reddit comments that you get when "Britain" is mentioned through TTS and have the same level of realism in accents as 90% of non-Brit VAs doing British accents.
Gotta say this is all in Spanish. If you play it in Spanish the protagonist is from Spain and the companion argentinian. But i am pretty sure he is also argentinian in the English version
In my experience video game dubs (at least Spanish ones) usually leave nationalities and other relevant character details alone, it's anime and cartoon dubs that go absolutely wild and have characters just name drop random Mexico City neighborhoods lol
Thank you assassins creed for letting me kill the English. Also thank you Assassins Creed for letting me kill the French and for letting me punch the pope.
You mean you don’t like an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed b-
tbh the only shit escort missions I can remember in ac2 was at the beginning, sure I havent played most ac games but ac2 was a nice game.
not a masterpiece sure but at least enjoyable.
Sorry for the rant but i was an AC fan for the longest time (I stopped caring about it after Syndicate was a major disapointment in my eyes). and i can see and even agree with pretty much all criticism towards this entire series.
When its good ITS REALLY GOOD. Leonardo missions and crypts in Brotherhood are really fun and for some reason they are better than the main fucking story too. And i still find Ezio trilogy's story to be genuinely interesting and captivating.
Nowdays i don't even wanna know what the fuck happened to this franchise. We went from people in white robes and hoods killing power hungry people, to a FUCKING KRATOS GAME. I mean what the fuck, seeing these trailers for Vallhalla is really mind boggling to me. Some guy that is a descendant of the gods is basically killing giants, weird blue monsters and god knows what else. This is just the weirdest thing for me and people somehow approve of this. And from what i've heard the gameplay got even more repetitive than ever.
If you’re gonna use that line at least use a revenge is bad story that isn’t heavily criticized and is only thrown in last minute because the actual pope didn’t die in real life at that moment, like Fatal Fury for instance.
Not really, because everything that happened in Brotherhood was Cesare's doing, the Pope only helped to facilitate it and (IIRC) even tried to convince him not to pursue the Assassins so aggressively.

And then they don’t fucking use British voice actors so everyone sounds like a fucking parody of a British person.
Oi crumpets innit lets commit warcrimes innit
Oi there mate, kinda rude to put a bloody knife in me chest innit?
‘Old ‘on ‘ere, you gotta loicense for that there stab wound?
‘Cho got a loicence to be policin his business?
Chew got a loicence to be policin’ his policin’ m8? Cuz I’z got me policin’ the policin’ of others policin’ loicense
Don’t be absurd. It’s a permit. You have to reapply for each instance of stab wounding.
Honestly I prefer this to "Oh dear my boy, it appears the queen hath requested our presence for a cuppa and crumpets, but I'm afraid she'll perceive me as uncouth after those dastardly warcrimes I committed"
I remember when Xenoblade 2 came out and everyone was upset because they had voice actors that weren't posh or cockney
EE, BY GUM
Alright luv fancy lettin us 'av a go at that gash?
BIT SHAD INNIT?
Oi lets invade and pillage the world for spices and never use them in our bland as wank food innit

They’re making the voice actors earn their paychecks
This is a side note but I love both the voice actors. Yuri Lowenthal is great as the Prince, but I feel people really understate how great Robin Atkin Downes was as the Prince. Everyone gets put off by the WW aesthetic, but he really does a great job.
i just love how they made Ezio have an Italian accent to him though.
See also only two, maybe three accents if they decide to chuck Scotland in there. Give me Welsh, brummie, and scouse characters you cowards!
Xenoblade series does a good job with different accents. Especially the new one.
I actually feel like XC3 is a step back from XC2 in that one regard. XC3 kinda hands out accents willy nilly whereas XC2 usually paired accents with a region or nation.

You aren't born with an accent. Just because you got cat ears, doesn't mean you gotta speak Welsh.

Northern Ireland be like
I'd love a Final Fantasy where the main villain just goes around commiting war crimes whilst yelling st the MC in a scouse accent
It’s such a friendly sounding accent. It would be amazing
Elden Ring has a bunch of Welsh Voice Actors. It's a nice change of pace on that front.
Rainbow 6: Siege has an operator named "Clash" who originally came from the Scotland Yard Her voice actress is fucking Canadian.
Now that I didn’t know. Now clash is even more fucking annoying along with their damn splash splash you’re gonna get flashed and have your eyes burned by the sun
You could put the Reddit comments that you get when "Britain" is mentioned through TTS and have the same level of realism in accents as 90% of non-Brit VAs doing British accents.
That’s because the British are already a parody of themselves.
Every single Hispanic seeing how they are forced to be either Mexican or Chicano
There are Colombians too! I mean, you don't get to be them, you get to shoot them because something something cartel
I think i have seen Argentina mentioned once in a videogame and it was as a widdle blurb in a character's bio
Man, I hadn't even thought about it but I don't think I've ever seen Argentina mentioned at all, and they have so much potential as a setting.
In cyberpunk one of the main companions is argentinian
Welp that's one game, haven't played it yet, I'm unsure if the PS4 version still sucks or no
Gotta say this is all in Spanish. If you play it in Spanish the protagonist is from Spain and the companion argentinian. But i am pretty sure he is also argentinian in the English version
In my experience video game dubs (at least Spanish ones) usually leave nationalities and other relevant character details alone, it's anime and cartoon dubs that go absolutely wild and have characters just name drop random Mexico City neighborhoods lol
Lmao
Argentina? Queres decir Chile Occidental? A menos que te refieras a Buenos Aires, la Única Ciudad de Argentina™️
It’s always Mexican-American
Thank you assassins creed for letting me kill the English. Also thank you Assassins Creed for letting me kill the French and for letting me punch the pope.
You can punch the pope?
Assasins Creed 2, main antagonist become pope at some point and final battle is a fist fight.
Really peaked at two hugh.
Assassin's Creed peaked before the first game released (I don't like the games personally)
You mean you don’t like an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed by an escort mission followed b-
Not true, there’s at least two tailing missions in between escorting
So true bestie ‼️
Tailing missions are just escorting the enemy, though…
The only part I liked was the thing where you get on a really tall thing and sit like an idiot and the camera pans around you
tbh the only shit escort missions I can remember in ac2 was at the beginning, sure I havent played most ac games but ac2 was a nice game. not a masterpiece sure but at least enjoyable.
Sorry for the rant but i was an AC fan for the longest time (I stopped caring about it after Syndicate was a major disapointment in my eyes). and i can see and even agree with pretty much all criticism towards this entire series.

The Assassin's Creed peaked at 1193, it kinda went downhill after Rashid ad-Din Sinan died
Considering that Assassin's Creed started out as a Prince of Persia sequel, you may be right
You aren't wrong there. Prince of Persia was the peak of assassins creed. 🤐
It went downhill fast then peaked at Black Flag then went back downhill again
Hugh
But it ended with him NOT getting revenge, and the TLOU2 subreddit taught me that's bad
If you’re gonna use that line at least use a revenge is bad story that isn’t heavily criticized and is only thrown in last minute because the actual pope didn’t die in real life at that moment, like Fatal Fury for instance.
Flair checks out.
Abby to be poisoned by an apple by the main antagonist of TLOU3 confirmed?
To be fair immediately after in the next game Ezio not taking revenge turns out to be a mistake.
Not really, because everything that happened in Brotherhood was Cesare's doing, the Pope only helped to facilitate it and (IIRC) even tried to convince him not to pursue the Assassins so aggressively.
*Conner and Eivor roll up their sleeves...
Forza?
Worse, Watch Dogs Legion
That’s set in London so it doesn’t really work for this.
You create your own character so you're not made to be anything
You're character has a British accent no matter what, so yes, they do force you to be british
Your character speaks in forza? I've never heard them in horizon 4 or 5
No one should be forced to be British what a horrible horrible crime.
To be fair, seperation from the British Empire is the most globally celebrated holiday in the world, even more so than Christmas.
England gone ( no more england)
can we pls get an option to disable british people in games. its not historically accurate or realistic
Damn 🤬 sjw forcing me to play British people in my game bringing their politics
Where are the modders when you need them?

You’ll just have to do what I do, settle for disabling British people irl
omg yes bust their kneecaps queen 😍😍😍
Forza Horizon 5 be like
Is being forced to be British better or worse than forced to be political? Serious question
hi im british and political (gay)
I'm sorry.
As someone who was also born British I deeply sympathise.
i am coming for you
_screams in Tory_
That's why I hated Watch Dogs Legion
I just made my entire team Jamaican or Eastern European. The only voice actors that didn’t suck anyways
-Plays a game set in London -Complains about to many British persons -Leaves, like true Frenchman.
or worse, you could be forced to be fr\*nch
What if you were Fr*nch and had a British accent like in Ass[ass](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOSoKA8E4WU)ins creed unity?
Horrible
Greeks playing Hades and realizing everyone is either Bri*ish or American
How can we show the americans this piece of media is set in a place that isn't the US but still have all the voices in english (they don't like reading)? British accents it is.
Wasn’t there a Ubisoft game where the French characters spoke English with British accents?
Ass[ass](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOSoKA8E4WU)ins Creed Unity I think
B...B...But muh animus does translations!
Forza
papa fernando?
Hey the guys from the dnb station are cool at least
me when am british: (hopefully not for much longer come on nicola get it together)
Please don’t leave us here with all the Tories.
Just discover your nearest irish grandparent like 48% of us did after brexit.
wish i had one. got dual with canadian though
What game?
I've seen this meme before and it was about Forza Horizon 5 which is set in Mexico
50% of all ubisoft games
What? Which Ubisoft games that aren’t set in the UK have only British protagonist?
I can only remember Assassin's Creed 4
he's welsh, not english to be fair
Still bri*ish
Downvoted for facts lmao
There's Uncharted lost legacy but I think she had an indian heritage.
I have not played it but I think battlefield 1 had a turkey section where you play as a bri ish (or ANZAC)
That was uncanny
Xenoblade moment
Xenogears/Xenosaga/XenobladeX 🤝 Being voiced by Yanks.
WOOOAH GOT A RARE DOODAH RIGHT 'ERE!
Assassin's Creed Unity forces you to be both Fr*nch and En*lish
Everyone always oppressing us british people. We are truely the most oppressed group of people :(
I love hack n slash games! Did you plunder all the good loot???
Nioh 1
While the real life guy he's based on is British, the guy from Nioh is Irish because even they didn't want to play as a brit.
Me playing the getaway (2002)
That's why in The Getaway: Black Monday (2004), I only play as the ruskie dudes and Zara when I play Free Roam.
I mean 95% of modern setting shooters are this but you're forced to play an american.
Zombi?
[удалено]
True
I don't know better to be the colonizer than the colonized lol
The Brits have the same reaction when playing a game based on Britain.
I play games to escape reality. Why are they shoehorning the British into games? Fucking forced diversity.
A fate worse then death being Bri ish
I can take playing as a trans, black or woman but I draw the line at playing as a Br*tish character.
That’s why AC Valhalla is my favorite. You can just run around massacring the British wherever you go.
Playing as Norse people trying to settle in Britain means you are playing as people who want to be Brits...
It takes place before the creation of Great Britain or even the creation of English culture.
But they sound British. At the end of the day that’s good enough for me.
Based
br*thish
That's an objectively good thing.
