    Technically, EQ2 does have voices for their PCs. You specify the type of voice you have on your character sheet, and there’s these emotes that people barely ever use which say things like, “CHARGE!” or “Heal Me!” However, that’s a far cry from voicing every single dialogue of plot – maybe that’s Bioware’s goal.

    Yup, it is fully voiced for the PCs, like Sheppard in ME.
