 [[Voice Acting]] may add great value to the game product. Similarly to what happens in animated films, contracting well-known actors to give voice to characters not only contributes to the quality of this feature but, very importantly, it can be a powerful marketing argument. Yet, this is the kind of strategy that is prohibitive to small budget projects.
-Adopting a language for the [[Voice Acting]] is an important matter. It can become a handicap for players that are not able to understand that language. As in film practice, the inclusion of [[Subtitles and Captions | Subtitles]] allows to reduce the issue but it is not always convenient, namely because it takes to the visual plane a message that could otherwise be dealt with strictly through sound. [[Dubbing]] is for that matter a better approach, but again may be too costly.

 A form of giving voice to characters that reduces the problems of internationalization is to design a pseudo-language. Although they are theoretically less effective in communicating exact contents, pseudo-languages have several advantages beyond tackling at the problems of language and culture. Pseudo-languages can be designed to emphasize the communication of emotions and simple signalling, through the exploration of intonation and timing {{Pending|[REF]}}.
