So... Merlwyb will be voiced

[Loggos]

On another note, to be honest I'm hoping for a feature that is not very flattering to SE and their voice acting efforts but I really hope we'll be able to turn of voices but keep the background noises, as we had it in the 1.0-CSes.
I am really sorry that I sound so ignorant here and I do appreciate SE's efforts but with many of the characters being around for a year or more I have already formed quite an accurate picture of them, also in voice and speaking manners.
I don't really want to mute everything (like turning off my speakers) because just having music and background sounds already helped me a lot appreciating the cutscenes. I actually heard all the relevant voices/dialogues in my head.
I'm hoping for this because in some primary cases (when it comes to chars that I like a lot like Merlwyb, Kan-E-Senna, Y'shtola or Raubahn) I already have voices in my head that fit my understanding of the characters perfectly (perfect for me).
Not to have anybody dub them might therefore stabilise my immersion much more than having voice actors. Because if the voice actors - and they might do an awesome job nonetheless - are off too much of how I imagine a character to be then it would just sort of break my image of the character and with this break my immersion (yes, that sounds really comical but as sad and corny as it is - it's true v.v ).
Of course there is the possibility that I love the voice actors but in case that I don't I'd rather have the option to enjoy the story with my own imagination (but not cutting out all the sound - I really enjoy the music and background sound design).

I have no idea if anything regarding this issue was stated. If so, can anyone provide me a source and if not so, could a dev give an answer to this?
That would be really great!
