That wouldn't make any sense to do...

The game is hugely popular now without V/O, and assuming DPC maintains the quality of product and keeps with it, it could very likely remain popular for years. Pretty much anyone who has played any adult game has played or at least heard of BaDIK.

So... what would be gained by adding V/O once the game is completed? Hiring a cast of decent voice actors would be a large expense, so where's that additional money going to come from? I REALLY doubt there's a legion of potential players out there going "I'd buy this game on Steam or support the Patreon if only it had voice acting!". It might convince a few more players to try it, but not THAT many. It just wouldn't be a value-added feature.

The caveat to this is, of course, DPC's vision for the game. If he REALLY feels that his Magnum Opus of Porn Games needs V/O to be 'complete', that's his choice as a creator... I have my doubts, though.
It's not about adding or not adding. It's about the developer vision. I'm not making this up, its what he said. Maybe with the years his opinion may change but at the end of the day it's just another option. You'll be able to turn it off in the options menu.

He scrapped it for a reason. I'll assume that/those reason(s) still stand.
They scrapped it when they released 0.2 because it was too expensive, and even though it's been well over a year since then and they have thousands more patrons, they still have a very large cast of characters and even just hiring 4 or 5 decent voice actors who could do multiple voices, it will still likely be too ambitious for them in terms of cost when the game ends.

It's simple, voice actors willing to provide VO work for an adult game lack the talent to perform at the level required.

Jennifer Hale, Tara Strong and Laura Bailey wouldn't want to risk lowering their brand by providing VO for this game.
Perhaps not. But there are VAs who have done or specialize their voice acting to adult games and hentai.

Oh I know the reasons....was making the point to the previous poster.

And they are awful (opinions subjective).

When it comes to good VA, i have House Party that comes directly to my mind, both for male and female voices, even in sexy scenes (which is crazy because i usually cringe so much when it comes to moaning)

I now want to live in a world where Tara Strong is voicing one of the LIs and calls the MC Puddin' regardless of what pet name is selected on the phone app.

Still a hell hole I see... Shame. Remember when this thread was actually... FUN. Now it's borderline depressing with the over sensative egos who can't take any negative feedback here. -Smh-
I'm kinda surprised by this comment... I mean, I've only been frequenting this site for a few months now, but from what I've seen this particular forum is one of the better ones that I check constantly on F95zone. Sure, some of the discussions go on a bit long at times, and a lot of it is the same convos repeated... but the vast majority of discussions are civil. Hell, I'd even say most of the discussions and debates stay friendly.

Hell, even the occasional ridiculous 'This game sux cuz all the gurls should be the MC's sisters and I wanna get them all pregnant and fuck the babies!' comment is usually just ignored or laughed off. Seriously... does that guy just post the same comment in every game thread???

Huh. Maybe the mods are just that fast at deleting arguments...

Totally agree.

This is literally the only forum I enter every day (even though I've only been on F95 for a month) because you all really know how to take conversations to another level, over-analyzing every detail without settling for superficial things. That is why I can feel identified with this thread.
