: I really wish they would've waited on this decision. I felt there was a lot

: with its voice recognition capabilities. Sacrificing potential long-term
: rewards for short-term benefits, I'm disappointed.

Whenever they do get around to putting out HW2, I hope this move doesn't dissuade them from using Kinect voice/gesture recognition in the game. Would be cool to be in a match and be able to say "Serina, prep 10 Hawks and rally them at bravo base" all while focusing on an intense battle elsewhere.

It'd just be really great to not have to take my eyes or control off key battles, yet still command my bases at home to produce units or such. Or, how interesting would it be to ask "Serina" how long until those 10 Hawks are all complete and rallied and get a response? "1 minute and 17 seconds, Captain". Man, I really want a fucking Halo Wars 2.

You'd still be able to play the game without a Kinect, but it would just be a much better experience with it.
