  • Altaïr in Assassin's Creed: Revelations was supposed to have a different voice actor. Presumably Philip Shahbaz from the first game before he was replaced by Cas Anvar.

    I can't describe it, but the way he delivers his lines, and his impetuous tone of voice makes him sound much closer to AC1 Altair. Did Shahbaz do this recording or was it Anvar?

    What makes this even more idiotic, is that Shahbaz was hired originally because of his Arabic accent, but guillemot, being a cretin that he is, personally told Shahbaz and Jade Raymond to voice Altair with a 'murican accent instead, so that "he will stand out from the rest of the cast and feel more relatable to players". I have no words, really.

      It wasn't Guillemot who personally told them it was Patrice Désilets the game director Phil says as much when asked abt it. I highly doubt Guillemot was having any interferences with this project cause it wass so new and wasn't known if it would be successful or what about it would be a success. It was Patrice's ultimate decision as the creative director

    Altair doesn’t even need a new trilogy written they just need to turn his overall lore from the shitty phone games (mad how they put great lore in crap phone games) and the books and make them a fully fledged trilogy maybe with AC1 being the last entry before reuniting again in revelations if they did that I’d binge through all the classic AC games just to see an entire story that isn’t the trash we get these days

Either way, its better to think that the reason why Altair sounded american in the first game is because, like you said, makes it easier for the user to understand things, or its because the Animus being used is older and it just uses the user's voice for the person's memories he's viewing.
      Kinda like how in AC2 to Revelations is explained that the reason why the characters will inject Italian at random when speaking is because of a glitch in the Animus.

    AC1 Altair is/was perfect both as young and arrogant Altair.
    Revelations Altair the only time I liked was when the game shows Altair's older years. To me the new voice sounded like an old man, so I liked it during the last memories. But for the young Altair parts, they could've easily kept AC 1 Altair's voice.
    But the truth is, I don't care about the accent. AC1 Altair had a badass voice, Ubisoft should've kept it.
    Besides, I don't understand the b*tching about the accent. Did every other AC protagonist had a perfect accent?
