As of why they didn't just do re-takes and re-do some scenes, maybe they ran out of time and had to maintain consistency with previously recorded lines? Some line delivery felt like they just took the first take and ran with it, but at least there are no bloopers that accidentally made it into the game. That's the best I got.
I'm more likely to blame the voice director to be honest. Keep in mind her accent was there from day 1 for the post-EW quests, they had plenty of time when making her questline to decide that the accent wasn't working and just... didn't. And the accent definitely was not working in the cut scenes with her before Dawntrail came out. I don't know why they told her to do an accent but it really limited her ability to convey emotional range and it makes her come off like Tommy Wiseau in The Room next to all the other VAs. It sucks, because you can tell from other work she is clearly capable of doing better and this is her biggest role, too.
