Yeah, I just read that thread, but I'm left with the same question. Some people seem to believe the character will be silent, others don't. It's just so weird that Larian hasn't confirmed this since it's a pretty big thing, I feel like.
It probably won't be. If they went full voice with the custom character they'd need to go full voice with the Origins too, and that'd basically be like having around 12 fully voiced options (5-8 Origins and 4 custom) for the main character alone. Inquisition is the only triple A title that offers more than 2 that i know of, and it's got 4.
Realistically speaking, they can either half-ass one thing or another, or just make the main character silent whoever they are. Which is also how they went about things in DoS2.
