I think some devs do the bare minimum for an update or new release expecting to drop their school/work and live out of it or just make some quick cash and leave.
the 2 examples that comes to my mind are Silk Ari with Oath of Loyalty and SilkandMilkProductions with Heir Apparent/You must be...
I'm not a fan or voiced VNs, I usually listen to music while reading/playing VNs so I mute everything (sometimes I leave the effecs and other sounds on but it's pretty low).
but for voices I feel like they don't match the type of character or tone of the dialogue that is supposed to be said.
I don't eat it a lot either but after a lot of times getting pepperoni or ham/bacon, something less salty is not the worse thing on a pizza, especially when there is people that put ice cream or chocolate on them.
I'm not really attracted to the style, some don't even care about "fixing pictures" and you can see some deformities in the limbs, sometimes it feels like they are just for the quick produce - quick money grab.
If it's only to talk with some other character and not too often I don't mind but I don't like if it's the main mechanic of the VN or mandatory to unlock scenes.
Music is always off, I put my own playlist to listen while reading VNs
sound/voice very low, some are weridly calibrated and sound so high when it shouldn't
