I agree with a lot, quite a lot of the rest of your post (that I haven't quoted) but the voice acting? Ah, no. seriously. Voice acting is binary, it's either amazing (I am old school and if anyone ever played any of the Legacy of Kain games then that was my standard for great voice work) or shit. And most of it is shit. Plus in a comic book inspired game the speech bubbles work!
Provided those crowdfunded efforts are somehow still classed as donations and...see, getting donations to fund the servers is one thing. Getting a 3D artist to do work like that would involve setting up a private commission, or else you're wandering into tax issues, things that they would have to claim/report, what their work is. Blah blah. Rogue Server. Possible legal complications. Not impossible but you're threading a corkscrew opening and trying not to touch the sides there.
You know, I could have explained that a lot better but I'm a bit tired. LOL.
