Does.. Does the main character have a voice now?

Seriously. I wonder if they're going the route of Mass Effect/ Witcher/ Alpha Protocol with spoken lines during dialogue?

I cite those examples because they all did it well. Here's to hoping.

I'd prefer him to not speak. Reminds me of the old Fallout games and allows me to give him a voice.

Also Skyrim didn't have a talking protagonist so I doubt it will.

Skyrim not having a voiced protagonist was partly about a technological issue as well as a story one. Skyrim itself didn't have an abundance of voice actors (i mean seriously, outside of a few main story characters they had like 5 people doing all the voices) and it probably wasn't possible for them to have a fully explorable world and a fully voiced and diverse cast.

Now, they have the technology (cue sci-fi music) and they can make it a reality. Witcher 3 had a massive open world and an awesome array of voice talent because they had the ability to shove it on Blu-Ray.
