Yoshi-P tells PC Gamer that he is "not shocked" by mixed DT reception

I don't know why some people give a pass to actors/voice actors and blame it all direction... Is it because actors are more in the public spotlight, using social media and giving interviews and thus seem "human" and we feel bad for them, while the voice directors are a nameless grunt in the chain? They are people too. Yes, they've clearly failed at their job, but so too have the voice cast.
They're the ones who've performed below par.
They are the ones who submitted those bad takes and thought these are the best representation of themselves.
If voice directions did or did not provide context clues for dialogue (something VERY apparent in ARR for example), the voice actors could have asked for a clarification.
The English dub of DT is way below par - and with a few good performances, like that Miqo sheriff, the bad ones stand out even more.

DT MSQ was a shhhstorm of bad, from writing to localisation, to quest design to the ENG dub and beyond. I don't excuse anyone for selling us a failed product.

yeah this. it was incredibly apparent to me that wuk's english VA just does not have the range to pull off the character. it was a total miscast.
