I'm always surprised that the computer games industry hasn't latched onto speech synthesis. Modern speech generation coupled with some sort of emotional + accent markup and a library of base voices would allow going from script writer to voice over, without the time and expense of traditional approaches and often poor results. You could even go procedural, dynamically generating speech. The main character can finally get a name and stop being a silent protagonist. Mods & DLC. Include novels' worth of content without the immersion reduction of text boxes.
