    What's with the lack of voiceovers in the continuation of the main story

    Not one line is voiced. Not one.

    Was SE unable to secure long term contracts with the VO staff or something? You may or may not like the voice overs, but you should either have them throughout the storyline or not at all. Be consistent.

    I wish someone at SE would weigh in on this. Other games with voiceovers did have them added to new content that came out.

    Honestly, the voice overs were always inconsistent. They seem to come and go at random and makes the entire experience fairly jarring.

    Considering the quality (or lack thereof) of the storyline continuation... I wasn't surprised.

    I really liked the main story... the "continuation" was garbage.

    The voiceovers always seemed like something they threw in just to say they had them. Put in just enough early in the game to make people think there would be more. Probably wont get anymore until an expansion.

    nothing exciting had happend in the continuation though it was merely that calm before the storm so to say introducing new villain moving HQ meanwhile the action is building in the background :x hopefully we get some next patch who knows~ or hopefully next expac gets alot more voice acting

    I'm probably a minority, but I'm 100% ok with absolutely zero voice acting. I'd rather them just leave it out at this point.

    Yea, the VA seems to mostly appear during major cutscenes, not really the small ones in between.

    VA is fairly expensive. I'd rather they spend the money somewhere else.

    I don't mind the lack of voice acting, but I just don't like how inconsistently it's placed throughout the game. I was sitting there thinking to myself that there was surely going to be at least one voice acted cutscene in the continuation of the main story, but nope.
