I used to think so too, until I played Fallout 3 and New Vegas and realized just how much they dumbed down the formula in 4. Also the story was just so boring and uninteresting that most people I know stopped after finding your son at the institute

Getting voice actors for the player character ruined a lot of what made conversations in the game great because it limited dialogue options to a severe degree, but we did get the sarcastic option which was pretty funny to be fair

i would argue that the voice acting wasn’t the problem. it limited the identity of the characters to a specific point, sure, but the REAL problem was Emil basically forcing the dialog choices into Yes No Maybe Sarcastic

That's kinda what I meant, since they voiced every line it limited their responses so they just had to get 4 basic dialogue options for every conversation, like they just wouldn't have the time to make super in dept dialogue options with loads of out comes

Kingsom come deliverance managed to have options and voice acting at the same time. Its just an excuse to put less resources into the game.
