    I don't know about every single throwaway quest, but I'd like to see this happen for all MSQ dialogue (especially if that meant more of it would be rewatchable in the inn) and major sidequests.

    I'd also be totally okay with them just doing this for the Japanese voice track and letting the other localization teams decide whether or how much was worth dubbing for their respective regions, but I know others might not agree with me on that.

    All cutscenes, yes.

    Minor quest npcs? No way, that's pointless.

    Wouldn't you much rather they spend the money on actual game content? You do know voice actors aren't cheap, right? Well, unless you want something like Megaman X4.

    Ewww, no. I can read very quickly. I don't like voiced cutscenes because it requires me to sit still and listen (I'm too anal retentive to just cut someone off mid-speech, even though I've just finished reading their faux-Shakespearean braying, and I'm only waiting for them to play catch up.) Save the VO for the big moments. Fully voiced everything doesn't really add anything to anything.

    Glad someone said it.
    This recent trend to voice EVERYTHING just because it's possible in games annoys me so much x.X
    Voices (if they are fitting!) can help immersion, but only from time to time. I'm fortunate enought to play with JP voices without understanding everything, so it doesn't hurt me as much to cut someone off mid-speech (I only wait for a breathing pause; cutting it off mid-word is unbearable to me too). I dropped many RPGs already because I spent so much time sitting around waiting for people to finish their slow-ass speeches..I neither need nor want that in my FFXIV.
