There will be some limited voice acting, similar to how it was done in D:OS Classic (player/NPC comments with overhead text, shouts during combat).
Act 1 of D:OS 2 has more text than D:OS EE (over 500k words) and the full game has over a million words. The voice work for D:OS EE took 7 months to record.
Undestand the size. In DOS1 full voice acting was a bit boring after a while. I read faster so for a side texts it was rather drawback. However, its possible to voice act the key speach of the key persons?
You know, wing-man quests, their confessions. For better grasp of personality the voice is significant. Also The most villain speech "I rule a world" would lit a hate to remove it from face of the universe.
Could you make a bit voice progress speach?
Maby in EE version of DOS2 ?
Also, the important thing, dont forget the cheess vendor. Its trademark
