April Fool aside, there is a trick not to be missed here.
Why not allow us to record our own sound-bites for the ship droid.
The 6 or 7 provided as standard are repetitive and irritating.
An in-game app to record and prioritise phrases for the droid to speak (with a choice of vocoding/filters/distortions etc) would be innovative and funky.
It could be tied to some kind of companion gift unlock system.
