dubbing is evil, especially since it delays a lot of games for us english-literate scandinavians

I sense a small hint of nationalism, and very little realism. Do you honestly expect them to do dubbings that will only apply to about 5% of their fanbase - when the other 95% could care less/like the current dubbings? To top it off, that 5% fanbase already gets it's own localization!
I'm happy that most developers ignore the dutch audience and just give us english, I hate Hate HATE! dutch dubs.

Good luck to you and your cause however :)

Americans who like the real deal rather than imitations do still exist... maybe not as many...

let me put it this way....if a game is made with americans as a target audience then by god thats who their gonna target! im australian, and as far as real australian voice acting in games i have yet to be impressed (have you heard the "aussie" in red faction guerilla? its absolutely pathetic!) these people are not going to pay another set of actors just to have authentic italian voices in their game, its not economicaly practical....theres my 2 cents.

Italian voice overs or gtfo, Ubisoft. jk. I'm not too concerned or surprised, but I didn't think the voicework in the first game was that good, so I will most assuredly agree with you. I would rather have the real thing any day.

Out of curiosity isn't American Italian more Southern Italian dialect? Like, To be honest my family comes from Florence and Trentino, but I keep hearing from my grandfather that his Italian was very different from other Italian in America. Just asking you seeing how you're living in Italy so you might know.

I have to agree, although I don't speak brilliant Italian I find American  takes on Italian to be pretty sad to be honest. The actor/film look cheap and ignorant...
My 5 cents I guess...

" it doesnt feel right when a game is taking place in YOUR country and you hear AI of your same nationality speaking the language wrong

as an arab there are tons of american games taking place in the middle east/the holy land, and i like to hear the arabs in the game speak the language right, as i said they did that in the first AC.

i also speak hebrew but  there arent really that many games concerning israel..

it might not matter to you if you're american since the games are mainly english spoken but it matters to the other continents :D .

Excuse me? 
I'm just commenting on the stereo typical usage in films. 
Am I off the mark?Well,  I guess I am
 
 
Ok I just read my post. By "American" I mean 'Hollywood"  

This is hardly the first time stuff like this has happened... I hear Americans doing their shitty, stereotypical impression of what Englishmen sound like and yeah it's annoying as all hell but I'm not going to start a petition about it.

" Actually I would like to say this is incorrect. in AC1 it's explained the language is altered for him so therefore in AC2 the same explanation applies meaning using the current set of voices is actually correct. "

This I don't really think will be that much of a problem.

" Whatsa matta wich yuu! Eh, whatsa matta wich yuu! Why it offend you so much? Wut you don't like Italian-American accents, getout of 'ere. Take a fucking hike. "

These boycotts are really getting lazy...

This is a fucking joke right?

" Hey Altiar spoke with an American accent and it sounded ridiculous in the medieval context."

The Animus was programmed to use Italian American speech codecs?

Oh my god people should shut up. These complaints are so unnecessary. Like when people were complaining that the Prince of Persia didn't have a Persian accent... I guarantee most people don't even know what a Persian person raised with english as one of their main languages would sound like. Altair's voice made sense in the first one because it was Animus 1.0. Now that they have addressed the complaints somewhat people are still complaining. He's not Italian enough... It's a game.

It's probably pretty challenging to find actors with flawless Italian who also can act in English. Most of the dialogue in AC2 seems to be in English. I'm sure they had this fantasy of having a huge cast of great actors who could do justice to both languages, but I suppose they had to make some sacrifices. In my opinion I think they made the better choice, since most people who play the game will know English and not more than a handful of Italian words.

It's funny as shit cause in the game they purposely have a character say "It's a mi...Mario!"

this is starting to get fucking ridiculous

I hate the lack of authenticity in the voice acting, and it's depiction of historical figures. They've made Medici and Leonardo far removed from what historical texts tell us.
