Where I noticed it the most… (Destiny)

The idea that audiences identify more strongly with a silent protagonist because they can fill in any voice they like... is nonsense.

Perhaps for you... I absolutely hate it when the main character in a video game has lines.

Silent protagonist ftw

Edit:
UNLESS -
The main character is fully developed a la Nathan Drake, Solid Snake, etc.

If you're going to have a poorly developed character say one or two lines over the duration of the entire game, might as well have left him silent.
