The game is meant to take place somewhere in Europe right? I think it'd be cool if the characters had accents reflecting the setting. And not that it'd be completely immersion-breaking, but I think it would be a bit odd for a modern American accent to come from someone in an obviously Gothic setting. Of course this is ultimately up to what voice actors are chosen and whatnot, or it might already be a duh, just throwing it out there.

Good question, but I personally woudln't like any noticeable accents. That said I hope you aren't thinking 'no accent' is modern american accent =P

I wouldn't mind accents so long as you can make them convincing enough and can act. One bad example off the top of my head is whatever was going on with Lucia from Devil May Cry 2. A decent example would be Nolan North's Penguin. Though to me, Jennifer Hale can always pull off accents really really well.

Am not too keen on something like that. If they talk like something like Dracula X Chronicles or the way Ostegoth and Death talk in Darksiders 2 that's fine. I say something like Castlevania Lament of Innocence and Curse of Darkness should be fine. However, if IGA envisions this in a certain way I can adjust.

Depends on how the accents are done.
An old theater teacher of mine once said "the worst thing you can do to Shakespeare is perform with a bad British accent" and that thought has been stuck in my mind ever since. If I was a director, I would rather cast someone with no accent and fit the role perfectly than cast someone who could pull off a good accent but didn't fit the role that well.
If characters have accents, I'd like them to be subtle and natural. Exaggerated accents usually best in comedy, but I can't see something like that being appropriate for Bloodstained.
