EverQuest II Interview

GameSpy has conducted an interview with Sony's Heather Sowards, asking the audio director several questions about the introduction of voiceovers to the upcoming EverQuest sequel. A snippet:
Q: How long have the recording sessions for EverQuest II been going on and are they close to being completed?

A: This is a difficult question to answer, because developing voiceover for an MMORPG like EverQuest II is somewhat of an organic and abstract process. We don't have absolute deadlines like one would for console game development, and the scope for this game is mind-boggling. The content is constantly evolving and changing and it is the audio team's job to try and evolve and keep up with these changes. That said, I'll try and answer your question. Voiceover sessions began before Christmas. They will continue through ship. We plan to add new voice as we add new quests to the game and offer it via optional patches. I don't really expect us to ever be finished with the voiceovers as the game will continue to evolve and new content will be added regularly.
