Anyone else likes the voice command confirmations?

Yeah the english voices just suck. I liked the different languages in MTW. Even though they were in a different language eventually you knew what was happening when they said what.

The Orders complete is just queer. I did like how the men respond to the command when they get an order.

Is it really that hard to record "Sir" in a couple of languages? I don't need every single dialect, but come on. Romans don't speak English. Carthigianians don't speak English. Gauls don't speak English. Shall I go on?

No one spoke Enlglish back then (which you know) but I think I'd be able to accept the ROmans speaking English because they are the center of the game - but then again it would make it a much more appealing game to non-English-speakers if all the languages were their native tongue = no english unless you as for it.

German peasants from the year 1200 didn´t speak latin. And certainly not with English accent. So MTW is just as inaccurate. Let all of them speak English makes even more sense. I just wish they hadn´t used the silly accents and better speakers. In general confirming orders and give reports is a good thing.

Their leaders may have...

Probably not with an English accent though.

Anyway, I think that I wouldn't care if they spoke English if their accents were accurate. It's a good thing to want, but if I'm going bare minimum here then I'll settle for good, accurate accents. I mean if you're going to call it a historical game at least don't make blazing inconsistencies likes this. I don't have a big problem that a certain shield isn't period specific or something that I can ignore, but when my CREESHHIAN ARSSSHERRSSS keep saluting me in such a way I don't know what to think..../

Fine. If you really want it English, then yes, it should have good accents (obviously). I can't even place my "BARRRBALIAN MERSHANERIES". Of course it's even sillier that they call themselves Barbarian Mercanaries.
