Users appreciate the music functionality for its versatility, allowing control over playlists and audio settings through voice commands and desktop shortcuts. The integration of features like game music packs enhances the gaming experience by enabling custom playlists without repeats. Overall, the music aspect is seen as a valuable tool for both gaming and general PC use, streamlining tasks like pausing music or adjusting volume.
- “I also use it for a jukebox in my games as there is a simple feature which will play your music and also make sure that there are no repeats if your list is randomized.”
- “A new offering is called game music packs, which, while recent, has the possibility of changing the way I use custom playlists and use custom music during gameplay.”
- “So for example, you might run VLC player with a preloaded playlist and you can program it to open up and play that with the voice command 'play music!'.”

Gameplay is enhanced through the use of voice commands and macros, allowing for greater immersion and efficiency, particularly in complex games with numerous key binds. Users appreciate the ability to customize commands for various in-game actions, making gameplay more realistic and streamlined, though initial setup can be time-consuming. Additionally, new features like game music packs offer further customization options, enriching the overall gaming experience.
- “I am very happy with the way VoiceAttack performs multiple functions with my voice commands, which makes elite gameplay even more immersive.”
- “It's extremely handy for anything that has a ton of key binds or complex mechanics.”
- “It can be a little tricky to figure out how slots need to be organized first before your voice macros will work correctly with them - of course this tool knows nothing about the games - it is just issuing mouse clicks or drags or keydown/keyup in sequence when you issue that command, so you'll have to set up your gameplay appropriately (for example, what stuff goes where in your inventory slots).”
- “Setting up a profile is a fairly simple, though time-consuming, process, but worth it if you lack the dexterity to make full use of your keyboard or simply want to make your gameplay experience more efficient.”
- “Some will use it for cheating, some will use it to enhance the quality of the design of the experience and make the gameplay even more realistic; this one is my case.”
grinding
10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
100%
Users find the initial calibration of the Microsoft voice recognition software to be tedious and time-consuming, but ultimately rewarding as it significantly streamlines repetitive gaming tasks through voice control. Once set up, the software effectively alleviates the burden of memorizing key mappings, making gameplay more efficient. Overall, while the setup process may require patience and troubleshooting, the benefits in reducing grind are well worth the effort.
- “Tedious, repetitive tasks can be made much easier and available by voice rather than memorizing key mappings.”
- “Once everything was dialed in it worked very well though the dialing in part is tedious and takes some troubleshooting.”
- “A bit tedious calibrating the Microsoft voice recognition software, but it is an hour well-spent for what you get in return.”
humor

The humor in the game is highlighted by user-generated macros that create amusing dialogue and interactions, such as playful commands like "bridge, napalm barrage!" and references to pop culture, like "deploy the spaceballs kid's toy." The developer, Gary, is noted for his friendly demeanor and support, contributing to the lighthearted atmosphere of the community. Overall, the game fosters a fun environment through its customizable features and engaging soundboard options.
- “Coded all the macros myself and it's generated some funny dialogue between me and my friends calling out things like 'bridge, napalm barrage!' or sillier ones like 'deploy the spaceballs kid's toy' (it's for the flamethrower for those of you with confused looks on your faces).”
- “There are also a lot of funny things you can do with it, including setting it up to also do soundboard things.”
- “Sweet voice macros for hilarious jokes.”
stability
6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Users report mixed experiences regarding stability; while some find the software runs perfectly with comprehensive documentation, others encounter significant issues, particularly during high-stress situations where voice recognition fails and the program freezes. This inconsistency has led to frustration and requests for refunds due to inadequate information on glitches.
- “The primary problem I have encountered is when I get excited during an intense firefight and my voice speeds up, VoiceAttack has difficulty understanding my commands, whereupon it just freezes; it 'no hablar ingles' anymore.”
- “So I am getting a refund, the lack of information on your program is unacceptable, and you really need to tell people and be more aware of the glitches your software has, because that is called only giving part of the truth.”
optimization

Users highlight that while the software allows for unlimited profiles, performance can suffer when managing a high volume of commands simultaneously. They suggest that the developers should focus on optimizing the software for a wider range of motherboards to enhance overall performance.
- “Unlimited profiles are a great feature; however, having 10,000 commands that the software has to listen for simultaneously can decrease performance. Use this software wisely and don't blame it for performance issues.”
- “The ability to create unlimited profiles is fantastic, but it's important to manage the number of commands effectively to maintain optimal performance.”
- “What the creators of VoiceAttack need to do is make their software more optimized for a larger variety of motherboards.”
- “Unlimited profiles (make use of that, because having 10,000 commands it has to listen for at the same time will decrease performance; you can use this software the wrong way. Don't blame the software.)”
