As far as I know, yeah, most of their work is like that. Maybe that is what she wants to get at with this criticism? Can't really know since the article was so short.
In another comment in this thread someone mentioned Supergiant does things differently where VA's are regular staff members, not just contractors, and that's probably a much better way honestly. That's probably much bigger job security, specially for the smaller VA's that might not even get enough work to be a full-time VA, while also allowing for more distinct voice acting, since you don't have the issue of the same people over and over again on every somewhat big game, which is not necessarily a problem performance wise if they have great acting range, but would be cool to have more VA's in general showing their talent.
