Is this game missing a ton of voiced dialogue too?

[Vyper]

Just wondering if its like portia in that sense, which was disappointing. I'm about to do a full play through soon

A load of VA is being added for full release.

Not every single line in the game is voiced, but anything to do with side quests and main quests are fully voiced. Not sure what you'd consider "missing" or not, but there you go. It does have more voice acting than Portia when it comes to general chatter too.

Portia got content added post release, it's voice acting was done by individuals instead of a company and several of them moved on to other projects before the final version was done.

Sandrock's voice acting is delivered by a professional company.

I just hope this will include the side quest for Pen where he becomes trapped by his mirror. That scene so deserves to be fully voiced.

There are some incorrectly voiced lines, and some voice lines from early patches aren't as high quality as newer ones, but in both cases it's nowhere as bad as what was going on in Portia. If I had to rate the quality of VOs, Portia was below amateur and Sandrock is above average. Finally, I never felt like anything I came across needed to be voiced but wasn't.

I did notice variations in some voice recordings, meaning lower production value.
I could tell the volume levels were off and the timbre and quality of the recording was poorer.

I chalked this up to the actor recording it on their own in a less than optimum environment with poorer gear, such as a condenser mic and poor level controls.

I hope these were simply placeholders and will be updated with final release.

Even in EA (I'm speaking mainly about "Knives out" update cuz I haven't played Act 3 update) there was way more voice acting than in Portia. Some of most recent content at the time wasn't voiced but aprox. 80% was. I don't remember a cutscene that wasn't voiced. The part lacking the most va were ingame dialogs where you chose answers and even then it was the most recent content at the time.

I hope they won't abandon voice acting comepletly in post game like in Portia...

In true RPG games voice over is must, cus there is so much txt to read.

But i feel this game is more about crafting and playing silly mini games, so missing voice overs is not deal breaker for me.

There're some that still waiting to be added, and some side quests where there won't be voiced dialogues, at least for now.
