Seriously, a spoken narration which is delivered with decent voice acting is such a huge game changer.
It also prevents the temptation to skim and skip essential dialog.
Development resources well spent!

The narrator (Ashley Johnson is the actress' name) appears in most major moments in the game.
It would really have been amazing if she narrated everything in the game. But I guess that would have just been too much work.
It wasn't that it was too much work, per se, we made a creative decision to allow some of the prose to stay unnarrated, as we felt that was more in the tradition of the classic Infinity Engine games, and we didn't want to take too much of giant leap away from that, since some fans do prefer to have breaks in the dialogue/read at their own pace. We did our best to balance both sides' desires.
Damn that's Ellie from The Last of Us? You guys didn't skimp on the VO budget that's for sure.
I'm glad she doesn't narrate EVERYTHING but the narration VO for the beginning was very well done. Looking forward to hearing more.
It is indeed. She's a member of Critical Role, (check out /r/criticalrole) who are voicing most companions and major characters throughout the game.
