I'm inclined to agree with that. As both a fairly prolific user of player-made mods elsewhere and a creator of the same myself, voice acting is always the weak link as it's probably the hardest part to do well. It's a very specific talent, and probably one of the rarest, and then there's the aspect of actually recording it properly: a poor recording complete with background noise sounds awful.

I'm probably coming across as sounding overly negative, but voice acting is just so hard to actually get right and can absolutely ruin a mod, and by extension the game it belongs to. Much better to have a dialogue system that supports both voice and text as we have at the moment, I think.
