Why do they all sound like British, wanna-be players? I always assumed Thancred would have a more serious voice.

The auditions weren't all too great in all honesty but this is what sold me. Doesn't sound like British wanna-br to me.

Also, you're crazy. Go home.

I said a British, wanna-be player not a wanna-be British. And why do all your voice actors assume Thancred is British to begin with?

It's not "British" persay, but it IS how English was more or less spoken back in the medieval/steampunk era.. the American accent developed only in modern times, well after the US declared its independence >.>

So...why wouldn't he have that kind of accent when speaking English? Same for majority of the characters

Hold on now, you're starting to use logic. Haters hate logic.

I don't hate logic, I am challenging the assumptions you are making. This isn't mideval Earth, this is a fantasy realm called Eorzea. Furthermore, whenever Y'shtola or other npcs from 1.0 spoke during cutscenes it was not with a British accent. I was hoping there would be at least one voice actor who seemed to take the role seriously, but they all sounded like they were taking it as a joke. In my opinion, Thancred is neither British nor a lame attempt at a womanizer but apparently the other fans have me out numbered on that opinion.
