Voice Commands

[Ghost Pirate]

Which game or games do you think could make effective use of voice commands.

 

I think Disney Infinity could make good use of this feature. You could set a block or terrain and say 'Change terrain to Marlin's Reef' or 'Change color of block to red'.

Voice commands are shotty at best and a waste of time.

 

It is much faster to press a button on your keyboard or controller then to use voice commands if they even work.

With the current technology it may be hit and miss.

 

But voice commands could become more reliable in the future as voice recognition software improves.

Mass Effect 3 made decent use of voice commands by helping to swap weapons or use powers for your teammates. That being said they were extremely limited and were touchy to accents and the volume of the person speaking. Until technology is implemented that allows for compensation for these things (among others) voice commands are not really a great option to me. Plus it can easily be confused with conversations amongst people with in the room.

 

Over all I think they will play a big part in the future of gaming however until it is refined it is a side option that really isn't needed.

Voice commands? Heh voice software doesn't recognise every accent so it doesn't function as well. It'll be a lot better when the tech is improved though then games can be much more.
