furtim Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 You realise that in Fallout's nuclear war, the US did in fact invade and annex Canada, right? So it wasn't some ridiculous anti-Canadian comment so much as a joke about Fallout's canonical backstory. Man, this thread got derailed fast.

It's that the guy think we Canadians speak with British accents. Read the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyDoYaThang Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Canadians don't have accents. Canadians have accents. Go to another country where they speak differently than you. To them all the locals sound normal but since you are an outsider and speak differently they would say you have an accent. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kabolte Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 You could make her of Canadian descent. That should make it believable enough. :PMaybe a little drama in her story about how her grand-parents managed to get into the vault although Canada was an enemy in The War™. :D It's people like you who make all Americans look bad you know that? Get out into the world a little bit. He was being sarcastic. Did the smilies not give you a hint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I'm not a preteen, but I'd like to try to help. Being a girl and all. The only snag apart from the pitch of my voice, would be my accent. I'm Irish, but can pull an American accent. But it may be too general. EDIT::If you provide me with a "script", (like the hello or w/e she'd say the first time the pc met her) then I could try to get a sample for you.

TheRealQuasar1337 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I don't see why the protagonist HAS to be american tbh... As a Brit myself, it's nice to occasionally play someone I can relate to... Not that I can relate to a preteen girl in any other respect...

jaysus Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 you guys realize that there are british accent speaking people in america too? even tho most return quickly... in a concorde preferably... thats why it was abolished...anyway americans joking aboot canadian accents are kinda spooky... thats like hitler complaining bout stalin... the most perfect english comes from scandinavians and dutch imo... the funniest from india... the loveliest from scotland... british have a too specified accent and americans speak somin different... i think its aramenic but im not sure... and how come someone really takes offence at accent jokes? as racisitic as they might be theyre the most fun bringing endavour of mankind... what would a world be like where we couldnt joke about our neighbours and how funny they speak? BORING! afterall its a joke and usually people understand that there is no personel attack or hatred included... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NKWOODRUFF Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 british have a too specified accent Walk the length and breadth of England and it seems that accents change every 15 miles or so, im still not sure if Glaswegian is an English language :biggrin: and as for the rural areas they definatly speak another language, "Ey up laa, stick wood int'hole" -translation- "Attention boy, please shut the door" :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
