That’s what this already does.

We are talking about a completely computer-generated voice. But for some reason we’re only talking about cases where it’s modeled as closely as possible on one specific human being.

Sure, and if it purely takes text as input and you use it to make voices for an entire game it’s going to be bad too. I’m talking about supplementing voices with snippets that they can’t know in advance, such as the player name.

I’m talking about artists using these tools for how characters sound, the same way they use tools for how characters look and move. The answer to “who plays Mario onscreen?” is “nobody.” The answer to “who voices Mario?” can be the same. It doesn’t mean nobody is responsible for how he sounds, or that someone typed “short plumber red hat” to render him.
