Bosses need voice acting and personality.

Alright I do enjoy playing FFXIV and the encounters are unique but there is something really missing from boss encounters the fact that they don't have a personality and the lack of voice acting which would make the fights have a more foreboding feel and give them life of their own.

Take WoW for example(equips anti hater shield), raiding heroics in wow since I started in ICC I've loved the boss encounters there for one reason, they have personality and they actually address the raid.

Take the following voice clips from some fights, just a few examples of what brings life to an encounter.

I mean cmon how awesome would it be to hear Ifrit bellowing his threats while he breaths fire upon your party, Garuda screeching while she buffets the raid with gale force winds, Titan's deep tone resonating through the cavern striking fear into all who dare enter the crag, ADS as an automated defense system reading lines initiating attack sequences and many of the other bosses in dungeons such as Siren.

Cmon SE you guys can do it, breath life into the encounters your players deserve it.

SE decided to have 4 languages of VO on this game. That comes with a price... x4 more time and money to make VO for new content...

Personally I have a weakness for games that have your character shout the skill they're using... Too awesome XD (I know that in an MMORPG it's rare but still lol)

You missed Sartharion, one who has some of my favourite quotes.

But yes, I agree that the fights can use some voice acting.

Yes, more voice acting would be nice.
I mean we know they can do it, we've seen it in a few story fights with the Garlean Legatus.

yes i do aggree it would be awesome to have some voices for the bosses.
the voicework they do have feels extremely disjointed and random. some cutscenes are voiced some are not. a few bosses have lines i believe.

overall a missed oportunity for sure.

I'd love to have those!
