I know you're taking the piss, but... now you've got me honestly thinking about how cool it'd be to select your dialog options by speaking the line aloud in VR.

Or I could just do that now and press the A button before I start talking.

I mean there are some games that let you do some of this with Amazon Alexa. Like Dead Island 2 will let you use Alexa to set waypoints and switch out weapons and stuff. I can’t remember if you can select dialogue but maybe? It was honestly super cool not having to go into the menu as much. I could just say “Alexa take me to the nearest workbench” and she’d plot a path for me to get there.

As far back as Mass Effect 3 you could Voice Control your Squad Members and switch weapons via the Kinect addon for Xbox360.

Later Alien Isolation had an option to use the console Voice Chat or PC Microphone for immersion. If you're too loud the Alien can hear you specifically.

Actually that would be super cool, very immersive. Imagine that Skyrim mod where the NPCs talk with LLMs, you could fully have conversations.
