Though overall this is really good, I'm really happy with it altogether. by Worm 09/21/2014, 11:38am PDT
I'm becoming of the opinion that voice work is hurting RPGs. You can't have truly divergent stories when each word you write is costing you 10 dollars. Even some of the best Visual Novels were ones that were wrote without voice acting and had it added later once it became popular. Even a lot of games like Dangan Ronpa only use full VA work for some dialog, which is a nice compromise.

It would be cool to see a memorial edition of the game released with fully voiced dialog all in thick German accents. Though I'm really glad they did the writing without the intention of voicing it, it definitely benefits the overall product.
