The majority of games would benefit better without voice acting.

Agreed, done well it’s great, but it severely limits how far and often a story can branch.

I think it would also mean a possibility of having more dialog overall because less cost.

Plus means playing a game you don't hear the same voice actor (like Bethesda games) on repeat. Plus your imagination could do a better job in most cases.

I would take more branching dialog over voice acting any day.
