Communication
Communicate over real-time chat.
The basic idea is:
- As you type, each word is displayed individually above the player and disappears as soon as the next word is written.
- Optional: Do a machine voice-over of the incoming words. Allow receivers to turn on speech.
This is an experimental way of communicating but it allows:
- Requires the other party to focus on a conversation. Cannot listen to more than one player at a time, just like a real conversation
- No chat history, or going back to what was said.
- Requires the person talking to talk at an appropriate speed and ensure the other party is focusing on the talk.
- Talking is not a distraction or the main focus of the experience. It is an optional part and easily ignored.
