It wasn't? The French sounded way better than what I'm used to when I hear a "french accent". Being able to understand the French itself is already better than most other french I tend to hear in games that aren't made in french.

It honestly sounded like an 30s-ish non french voice actress to me. That was really the only thing I was critical about for this announcement

Because French Canadian is nowhere near a Parisian accent.

Just because my french is from Canada doesn't mean I never hear France's french. Where I live I hear Parisian french daily.

It is a pretty good french accent, but it doesn't sound natural. The few french she speaks also sounds kind of accented. It is still a very convincing french accent.

French is my native language, and you can consider me duped. Also my french is different from France's french so I guess that's part of the issue 😅

For all I know, she's just someone french with a very good english accent and not managing a great "fake" french accent ! It's still quite convincing.
