Larian is a european company. If you need english voice acting, the closest source is actually england.


So Dulany, if that is the true reason, why do you feel that the english voice actors are incapable of doing different accents?

And before you answer, please explain how the voice of Astarion (the most british voice to exist ever), was hired and paid money to do a Russian accent for a Resident Evil game.


Let's be honest here, they wanted a "low class" accent for the goblins and cockney fits the bill. It's not very nice to say that, but there you go. It provides a recognizable lower class accent without using african american slang (or southern US) that would be jarring in the setting and offensive to much of the audience.
