This might come as a surprise, considering that Fallout 4 featured a fully voiced playable character. However, this is not new for Bethesda RPGs, with the likes of Oblivion and Skyrim keeping the lid on player characters.
Returning to a silent protagonist in Starfield might actually be a good thing, as this will give Bethesda more time to work on dialogue choices that matter, and not have to worry about recording lines that might never get heard by certain groups of players.
Nevertheless, if the choice was given to the fans, there will always be divided opinions on having a playable character that is voiced, and Bethesda’s decision effectively shuts down the conversation on that front. We can now all look forward to further immersing ourselves in this epic space-faring game when it releases in 2023, and having that voice in our head spitting out lines rather than hearing dialogue through the television.
