Get the mics warmed up - 2.0: you're going to need voice acting

[syntaxlies]

Voice acting doesn't make an MMO. You'll find this to be the case in the coming months with SWTOR crashes and burns like every single other 'WoW killer' before it.

Lets see...EQ2, Age of Conan, Rift, Aion, the list goes on and on.

At the end of the day, the voice acting and the graphics will get players, but it's gameplay that will keep the players. 100 million spend on voice acting can be spent far more wisely on other things that will make the game more fun.

exactly, "will get players", you can not keep players in game unless you get them first.
