RE4 takes place in Europe. Zombies speak with Mexican Spanish accents.

RE8 takes place in Europe. Everyone has American accents.

No one is worse than Bethesda in this category. Skyrim feels like it has 3 voice actors. They couldnt have even hired 3 people who could do multiple voices

Like 90% of CE topics are the same way lol. CE is edgy/contrarian as f*** and will do anything to troll the TC/OP. -Touch

Skyrim has much better voice actor variety than Oblivion.

Because if they do that, people will complain that giving fictional characters accents is racist somehow.

Came in to talk about Chaos Wars but someone already posted a clip.

I believe the story was they let people's family members do the voices. So it's probably some execs actual kids.

RE4 was set in Spain so they were half way there but then it ended up being like if something was set in England but everyone has American accents and speaks American English.

I honestly think that was a conscious choice during localization. Everyone has American accents despite actually being from all over Europe (Donna's Italian, Heisenberg is German, Moreau is French). It's not difficult to find VA who can affect an accent, but I honestly felt they didn't want to risk having a horrible accent be a stain on the game.

Their names are, but I'm pretty sure they were all born and raised in the village. Alcina Dimitrescu is the only one confirmed to not be born there, I think.

They didn't even bother trying with Re8...

what are games with the best voice acting? I was a big fan of the voice acting in Xenoblade Chronicles 1 but some people disliked it, think FF7 R was pretty good too

That's exactly what I wonder about the kind of people I'm referring to, among many others.

No one cared in 4, everyone just took the piss out of the wrong accents and dialect.
