Megami Meguri
Megami Meguri is the title of Capcom’s latest Nintendo 3DS game, which is a bit special. Basically, it’s a communication game, where you get to talk to a goddess in training called Tsukumo: you can find more details about it in this post!
Earlier this week, Famitsu uploaded a special “interview” of Tsukumo (entirely in Japanese, obviously). It showcases the Megami Speak Engine, which heavily relies on a database. This database allows Tsukumo to understand the text you input, and provide an adequate reaction and/or answer. That way, you can have (at least, the impression) an actual conversation with Tsukumo.
Here’s the Tsukumo interview:
Megami Meguri (3DS) will be released this Winter in Japan.
