* A lot of the voice tracks were playing too frequently to be enjoyable. We've cut it back substantially so that you hear fewer of them, and more rarely. It makes them a welcome addition for really important events, rather than something you hear over-frequently for common events.
I was thinking that some were overused anyhow. Spacefaring, game start, war declarations, not-the-last-planet of a race lost, and your flagship being destroyed. The others are all far more rarely used, which I think is important for humor in general. I don't care what the joke is, if you tell it four times it stops being too funny.
