I've done some podficcing, and my overall impression is that it's a hell of a lot harder than it looks--or sounds. For every five minutes of reading, I put in about 30 minutes of editing.
It can also be tricky to distinguish voices without falling into the trap of trying to sound like the characters, which I think would be even harder for me with DA, because so much of the characterization comes from the voice actor's interpretation of the character, and because my normal accent is so far removed from that of most of the characters in game. In SGA, it was easy for me to convey different voices with subtle changes: speaking a little faster for Rodney, going slightly more nasal in that Western U.S. drawl that Sheppard's actor uses, or removing contractions for Teyla. I'd find it much harder to read, say, Alistair or Zevran.
