Can confirm it was a bit rough scrolling this in Boost, but interesting nonetheless. I feel like I remember Croc, but not very well.

If somebody could summarise it for me that would be great. I don’t really care enough to watch it myself, but I’ll want to be in the loop enough to know what people are talking about when they reference it.

A fascinating read. It inspired me to look further into the StarCraft voice integration. Other games have tried it, using voice commands to direct computer companions as an additional layer of realism. But I’m not aware of any game that’s done it well. Might be nice for applications like picking from a long list, sometimes “build unit X” is way faster than paging through buttons, but again we have keyboard shortcuts for that. Keyboard shortcuts wouldn’t work for dynamic menus though, and voice commands do.

Sorry for the stream of consciousness.

Good enough for me. I’ve installed it to my phone and I’ll probably never play it or think about it again, but there’s a chance I’ll give it a try someday!
