How is this still not a feature?

There are games that behave differently depending on whether you are sending keyboard inputs or gamepad inputs, so for a software that is marketed for being used with gaming, this is a must-have feature.

Edit:
I realized i was a bit vague. what I meant was that it's important for VoiceBot to be able to send simulated button presses for controllers (Xinput and DirectInput). ]]>
