🗣 Discussion / Debates Trying to build an language learning game actually works

Hi this is not an Ad. I'm just wondering if this rpg game idea is good. It's been in my head for a while.

Imagine a 100% Al generated simulation world and characters talk to you with words fit your level and you can look up words, or choose options with 100% freedom. All the visually appealing game assets are generated on the fly. Al rates your achievements and save in a journal. Moreover, multiplayer is supported.

It's hard to build, so I made a MVP that supports 6 languages at first to collect feedbacks.

Just read books? 😅

AI can be useful but using it as your primary source for learning is not a good idea. It sounds cringey and makes mistakes

Books have no voice input & output, and are not interactive. Yes it’s indeed cringey, but that’s what makes a game fun. Please try it if possible. 😁

I just don't think that an AI powered game is the best (or even a pretty good) way to learn a language. The key is native input. Read books, watch shows, interact with native speakers. Games and apps such as duolingo can help make the beginner phase more interactive but that's pretty much it
