Not just that: Audio files - especially given you'd need to make a file for each line of dialogue spoken and them having to be of decent quality to not just ruin the experience - would drastically increase the games' size and boot-up time. Two concerns which MITY raised already themselves. I remember them asking in book 3s development (back when I was a backer) if they should potentially consider developing book 4 as a detached game until its completion, at which point it would be slotted into the game to reduce file size while devving on it, because size grew to a level of "too uncomfortable" for them.Well they do have the budget for it, but
(a) what you just said
(b) Avatar is an originally English series with an established cast of VAs, so chances are you won't be able to find people who can convincingly replicate those voices
(c) porn game voice acting is seen as "cringy" by the majority of people the same way anime dubs are, and gets disabled
(d) going back and recording, editing and adding a voice clip for every line of dialogue in the game takes a non-trivial amount of effort, which people would view as time better spent on adding more content, for the reasons listed above
Just give the "AI" meme about 5-10 more years to mature, and you'll be able to use an algorithm to read out the voice lines for you using the original characters' voices.
Reality is, the game is 3/4s done and adding this stuff in post would take a huge effort, time and money spent that could be used doing things people actually care about: More smut and writing.
So short answer: no. Long answer: nooooooooo~
