Will anyone really bother with Kinect? - rant

I laughed so haaaard when I saw this. It's truly ridiculous (to me) to say what Shepard will say when I can just click it. Also, you can just say it, and then click it. There, I just saved you 100 moolah. Furthermore, we shouldn't need kinect for it when a headset would work just the same for conversations and combat commands.
It seems as BW has finally sold it's soul.... or aren't thinking outside the box. I go with the former (what?).

I am sure some people will use Kinect.
Yeah, for about 10 minutes.

And the combat commands will probably just make the squad go to places that will get them shot. It's much more efficient to indicate the position.

I don't see the point.... But better to have it and not need it...right?
Well... If we were to take Chris Priestly's endless "Oh, so you want us to include X? OK, but development time and disc space are limited, so we'll have to cut a lot of content. Are you sure you still want it? No, OK then, go and make no more stupid suggestions." seriously, then including it is a horrible idea.

I understand some features are not for everyone (some people will or will not use Kinect, some will or will not choose a romance, some will or will not play different classes, etc). However, I do not understand the seeming NEED for some people to belittle or ridicule the feature that they currently do not have interest in.
Does it make people feel better to nock a feature they do not care about? I personally do not like eating liver, but I do not stand in my local grocery store laughing at people who buy it telling them how stupid they are for enjoying it.

But I'm not against it. I think that some people will like this feature.

Its a waste of resources. They should focus on other things.

For example my HAWX game on Xbox is perfectly capable of recognising my voice with my standard headset.

Thing is, why not make it into something that is really useful? I seriously doubt the devs are really expecting this feature to be succesful or receive positive feedback. It won't. It's been done in the past and it sucked (experience talking).
Im not ridiculing anything, just pointing out the mistakes in development that have been made in the past to disastrous results (Rainbow Six again). Kinect can be used for other, better, uses in Mass Effect, not for something that's already there and make it 30% more complicated (combat commands).

a lot of people (myself included) think that to add kinect means somthing else must be taken out of the normal game like side missions interesting npcs and the like. me3 really doesnt need kinect at all so why add it microsoft must be smoking green if they think adding it to me3 will make me buy kinect!Chris Priestly wrote...

I think bioware should concentrate on making mass effect 3 the best game it can be and not on developing pointless uses for useless technology. i don't know how much of your resources are devoted to kinect use but any amount is too much in my opinion. it really is sad though that some people will pay 100 dollars for a gimmick device but i don't think they should be considred in the devolopment of a real game. let's let them hit fake soccer balls with their heads.Chris Priestly wrote...

Did you see the Roman soldier game at E3? That is some awesome looking stuff. Picture Dragon Age four, where you're choosing your spells and aiming them at monsters from a FPS or over the shoulder view... That could rule. ME4... Standing there with your biotic powers (or engineer powers or whatever), whipping items in the world and attackers around like a Jedi or hacking through gates and mechnical stuff in the scenery? You can't beat that.
Will ME3's support for Kinect be perfect? Maybe not. Will it be a new, neat, and interesting thing, hells yes. :-D

This is about the only valid criticism I see for add Kinect. I admit this kind of thing worries me too. I suppose it depends on how they manage the project internally. Which is way beyond me.

I for one, will be interested in how well it works, I don't think it will break immersion ridiculously, and could possibly improve flow in combat (note I said possibly)
