YAYAYAYAYA!!!!

Can't understand why more people aren't excited about this. I've always found the need for macros in this game. The new voice commands may suffice...

Wow, there's a Skyrim Kinect?! Cool on paper, but honestly, chopping down guys will be nothing more than waggling hysterically in the middle of your living room. Now if they had a Kinect holodeck. . .
by Abertix24 Monday, April 30, 2012 at 10:21 PM

This has already been done on PC and without buying an $150 microphone.

Eagerly awaiting a mod to subscribe to in Steam Workshop that can do this...

Btw kinect holodeck, idea just blew my mind..j/s.
by silverfail Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 12:42 AM

I think id rather press a quite button you cant here than be shouting at the tv just to do a shout
by Aswitch Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 01:33 AM

This seems really convenient against having to go into the menu to change shouts all the time, and i'm pretty sure alot of people want to yell fus ro dah.

Although, it's still not enough for me to go get a kinect.

Good for the Kinect gamers but I'm not interested in this.
by XRathalosX Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 02:15 AM

I wouldnt play Skyrim with kinect.
by JohnScorpion Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 02:31 AM

This is an awesome addition to the game, even though I don't have kinect. My best friend have one, so I will be shouting at dragons eventually.
by TamrielTerror Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 06:11 AM

TOMORROW YES!
by Giovanni Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 06:36 AM

I TRIED USING KINECT WITH MASS EFFECT BUT IT JUS WAS A WASTE OF TIME. THE MIC IS TERRIBLE... I WAS YELLING REPEATEDLY TO GET MY TEAMMATE TO DO SOMETHING I FELT RETARDED SO I SAID SCREW THIS IM JUS GONNA USE THE MENU WHEEL...
by outlaw4728 Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:24 AM

Cool. I'll have to try it out.
by Eli Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 11:55 AM

I started playing with my magic user and the kinect functionality is unbelievably useful. No longer do I have to go into menus three and four times just to get my armor spell, muffle, and switch back to my destruction spell, now I can just say it while I'm on the move to my objective.

To all those who say it's not useful or not well implemented, you're totally off. It saves me tons of time.

Quicksave.

by WereWolf1203 Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 01:47 PM

Can't wait to go home and try this out. This is making work go much slower than normal haha
