Why does nobody notice that Astarion's accent is not that of a magistrate from a noble family

[info]

but a chavvy King's Road rent boy from the 60s? It should be like Jason King of Department S or Tim Curry as Frank N. Furter. As it is, he sounds like Adele's hairdresser.

some people notice. IMO all companions are extremaly feminized and gay

What about between the Queen(rip) and Big Boss though?

Or like between lead singer of Queen, Freddy Mercury(rip) and The Boss, Springsteen?

These are the important things to care about obvi so please tell me.

Wait. You think Tim Curry as Frank N. Furter, one of the most famous performances in film musicals, sounds like a cheap rent boy? I don't know what to say.

Tim curry is awesome and rocky horror is a classic but whats WRONG with with what we got? This voice actor was cheaper and just as convincing.

Really and you decided what it "should" sound like? What is your reasoning for such? (this thread is honestly bordering on bonkers, gratz)

What could have been a cool easter egg would be the actor who plays Lestat in the current Interview with the Vampire show.
