Hello everyone, this is another poll that I'm making to plan the month of august and final tunes on version 0.8.

We have a few quests already written down, but they don't have voice acting yet. Our budget is a little tight since we are investing more in character, quests and level design this month and I'm not sure it's worth to hold them back until we add the voice lines, so here is the question:

Should we add those quests and dialogues without sound for now, and then slowly add voice-lines to them, or do you think it will be a better experience to hold the quests so when you play them, you will be able to listen to the character's voices? 

Because if we add the quests without the voiceover, later you will probably need to play them again to have a better experience. But if you don't mind that, we can push the development of new quests forward and later patch the voice acting.

Another point on we adding the quests before adding the audios, is that you can play them, see if there is any plot-hole or if anything should be reworded before we go through the process of recording, editing and programming the audio on the engine.

All of this is early access anyway, should have something to look forward to on the full release. Can wait on some voiceover.

Personally I'm always in favor of not releasing things to the public that are half finished. I think it gives a much better impression when what you see is the final thing, even if there's not a lot of it, or if it takes long to be released.
