Voice commands

I think it would be cool to use voice commands to do certain things, use spells. Will be funny on voice chat 🤣

    Voice commands are a nice plaything (i play star citizen for example with voice command), but i believe that macros and key commands are easier to handle ;)
    Imagine, you are in a raid and people keep on yelling their abilities xD

    Hmmm what kind of skills would sound funny when shouted out? I would watch a 2 minute YouTube video about this (especially if there are innuendo aplenty being shouted). Funny meme but nothing more.

    In the modern days it should be speech recognition, where you can say anything and bind it to an ability. You could say penis and bind it to fireball xd. But let's stay serious. Offcourse normal keybinds still active, just an addition.

    There was this one game, my friends and i always played in Stormwind. Do you know the an*l game? Just find a fitting ability or spell and write an*l infront of it. Example: an*l Death Grip, an*l Whirlwind, an*l Pummel
    We were younger at the time and not as mature as we are now of course, beause what self-respecting young adult would play something like that *cough*

    The mature version of this is taking the fortune from a fortune cookie and add “in bed” to the end. I know it doesn’t sound funny but when you actually do it, it can be pretty good.

    I’d love if voice commands could be tied to crafting, just so if I could tell my character “make me a sandwich” it will do it.

    ETA: For the fortune cookie game, just look at this web site which has a slew of fortunes found in cookies. Read any of them out loud and just add “in bed” to the end. It works. (I am such a child.)

    KILL THEM ALL

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    I just want more options. instead of pressing many buttons i can use voice commands in between. "shield", "dodge"; "invis" etc .. more synergy for my gameplay :)

    Only, if it is a skill that you have to spam, and it only activates once per complete sentence! X'D

    im against all voice commands UNLESS they are literally long or medium spell casting things like what you just mentioned.
    for example, lets assume that in order to make something invisible you had to give this entire voice command :
    Let the Object of Objection

    Become but a Dream,

    As I cause the Seen

    to be Unseen
    OK THEN im willing to say its ok XD
    short words or short sentences = HARD NO
