>extensive modding tools for making your own voiced action stories
Thinking about it, FBT with headset + controllers + trackers like vrchat is a pretty good mocap setup for under $1000. Combined with whatever vrchat uses for lipsync, all that's left to animate is facial expressions and finger positions. You could easily make passable cutscenes by acting out all the parts yourself, even for flat games. Not to say you'd wouldn't still need decent acting skill, but way easier than trying to animate a walk cycle by dragging around curves in an editor.
