Was the voice acting really this bad?

There were probably some exceptions in there but I feel like maybe the (lack of?) voice directing was worse than the voice acting itself, they often sounded like they had no context for the things they were saying so it came off really robotic and flat.

I think this plus the dialog writing/translating seemed to get better too (not perfect, mind you, just better).
