That is kind of bulshit as Michael Bell is credited as VO talent in both BGEE and BG2EE, so they could have restored the romance had they wanted it. Furthermore, they could have asked for Gaider's spreadsheet on the Haer'Dalis romance (if he told fans back in the day he would give them the spreadsheet, he surely would have given Beamdog, more so as if I am not mistaken he was working for beamdog when the EE was released) and he also had been working with a fan on a Valygar romance mod so part of the work was already done. And well, even if they could not get the original voice actors, they could try to get someone with a similar voice, they did that for Irenicus in SoD. Honestly, I feel the EE was rather half-assed in many aspects, some quests remain broken such as Kagain's recruitment quest and some things that Gaider wanted to put into BG such as the Ascension mod and other quests that could have now been put into the game, were still left out.

At least we still have the mods for Haer'Dalis and Valygar romances but I would have liked to have them put into the vanilla game and not having to mod the shit out of the game. It also sucks that the 2 good alignment straight romances for women are lawful characters with sticks up their butts. Then there is Dorn which is ok for an evil PT I suppose, and the one gay option is Hexxat which only works for evil characters. Man, wish I could romance Neera with my female chaotic good char. Alas...
