Sounds like it would work fine here.

FFXIV doesn't exactly give you different choices in dialogue. Here's the options we get:

"Yes lets do this!" response.
"Meh"/Small-joke/Ambiguous response.
"..."

Besides.. Luneth and Cecil were given voices in their respective remakes, and Tidus, Vaan, Lightning and Noct were all voiced as well as the ones not listed when the Dissidia series were made. So WoL not talking is more of a limitation of engine than anything as if they didn't have voices originally, they had text at the least.

Like I said, it wouldn't take too much. There's a dialogue option rarely where there's voice. Understand that only half the MSQ is voiced and its the only place there IS voice in most respects. So when the Scions are talking, that's when the WoL would talk. It'd only be alot if they decided to make them more talkative in the next expansion or updates.

And as I suggested before, we can make it a toggleable option so those who like to see their character's lips move with no sound can continue to do so.
