Has anyone seen any posts or news articles about the future of voice acting in game?

I would like to see a PC take a more active vocal role in the storyline since we were allowed to pick a voice type during character creation. Personally, having my PC stand in the background staring inappropriately and having an NPC do all the talking for my PC during cut-scenes is pretty boring. The only language my PC knows is grunting or screaming whenever i get hit.

Around town or even in instances, NPCs should be talking amongst themselves so you can "eavesdrop" on what they are saying. It would be more effective vice clicking on them.
