I don't think I could watch Hellsing Ultimate without the over-the-top accents everyone has. From what I understand the Japanese voice track didn't have anything resembling that.

What I really like is when they go through the effort to make characters multilingual, like in the Japanese track of Full Metal Panic where people were speaking English, Italian or Cantonese depending on the scene setting. It was probably poorly accented but I appreciate the effort. The Fujiyama Gangsta Paradise arc in Black Lagoon was also really cool with Revy not knowing wtf anyone was saying and for the English dub it would have been better if they kept all the Japanese people speaking Japanese with subtitles, although I understand why they might not want to go that route. It would have made some scenes make more sense like that poor fucker in the bowling alley trying to beg Revy to spare him with his lovely English.

The best part of the Azurlane dub is everyone having accents.

Accents in dubs is risky as it's very tricky to pull them off and a lot of 90's and 00's were not able to pull them off. But if you do it can be real good/amusing

Xenoblade 2 using different accents for each of its countries was a great thing that more games should do.

I can overlook the protagonist having a bad scream in cutscenes in exchange for Welsh catpeople, the militaristic Scottish empire, and dub Malos who is fantastic.

super robot wars x-omega is the most ambitious crossover game, nay, the most ambitious crossover of all time.

sakurai and the russo brothers wish they had a huge rear end cast on this level.

i still love sakurai though

The modern retranslation of 3 does it too, the best part is probably when you go to Jipang and instead of racist Asian dialects it’s all haikus. Or maybe VII when you get to the southern soap opera town.

Dokapon Kingdom has different accents/dialects for the different regions.

I don't think it would really fly if it came out today though. Special award to the Chinese mayors that yell 'NI HAO' every time you visit their town before continuing in english with a racist accent.
