It's an opportunity cost for them and Tales games are RPGs with a lot of VA and text. It's not that simple, though I'd personally want the Tales games to get priority. They're handling the series well now so this is moot. No use complaining about something that's fixed.

So you really think the voice actors cost that much?  Per person there's maybe five hours of dialogue that's kept.  Maybe 40-120 hours to get that amount.  That's for the main characters.  Say $100 an hour.  120 hours, that's only $12,000 per person.  After all the money that Namco Bandai has paid out, they should still be getting more than two million since they sell more than 200,000 in all regions outside of Japan and they only localize the games with one group of voice actors.  It's either English or Japanese voice acting in Tales games.  .
