Reasons voice acting isn't really a good idea

- For the quality to sound good in the game, we'd need to use better recording equipment, which would be expensive.
- We are getting a lot of teenagers offering to help, but funnily enough, no adults, which doesn't work well with the story Wink.
- It will take a long time to do, and definetly increase the file size Wink.
- If we find someone to act the main character, and half way through we lose contact with them (happened before), then all of the 2000 lines that they spoke have gone to waste.

That's ok in games like that, but in adventure games where the dialogue is the main aspect, I imagine that would get annoying.
