I'm still skeptical but as of now it seems to be a mix bag. Voice acting seems to be uneven sometimes it sounds like the actors are phoning it in and not really caring. Other times they nail it and buy into it. Also although the game graphically looks fine I'm really tired of the over use of the Unreal Engine, it's time for a change. Remember the good ol days when developers actually created there own engine for there videogames.

In general the voice acting is good. Though I gotta agree with some of the issues, especially Capt. Anderson as a whole, the on-screen character is completely void of emotion. The voice doesn't suit the characater at all. Everytime I hear that voice I remember the character from Saints Row.
With the use of the Unreal engine this game took 3 years to complete. If Bioware and other developers were to create their own engine for every game, or a single engine for all of their own games it would just take too long. It is a lot easier to work with a good framework and customize it to your specific need. I think the Unreal engine is perfectly capable of doing what is being asked of it.
Creating and licensing graphical and physics engines is becoming a sub-business unto itself and if anything you're going to find lots more people doing this rather than less. More and more devs will rely on these engines to cuz their development time as opposed to spending lots of resources creating custom engines for themselves.
