Does "any word" trigger the ghost, or only certain phrases?

[Serath]

If the game/ghost is always listening, does saying anything at all upset the ghost, or only those certain lines that people have posted online?

Cause I didn't know this last time I died, but I was also streaming to my friends and talking a lot.

There are certain phrases which can enrage the ghost (mostly swearing or saying it's name). Apparently the game is always listening to your mic so if you are hiding somewhere you should remain completely quiet.

But if I'm just saying things like say something out of character, or random things like "I'm hungry," "pass the mayo" or weird things like that, will it piss it off then, or nothing? How about just talking to myself like "okay, I should do blank next," or "ok if it's not a shade, then what is it...." etc.... or just random commentary?

I'm not saying the game could interpret virtually every single word and react accordingly, but I'd imagine it's easy to make the AI dismiss any word it doesn't recognize and just not do anything.

Swearing will anger it. Saying Bloody Mary will anger it. Apparently calling it a "Simp" really sets it off.

Commentary of your actions like if you are live streaming, it won't anger the ghost. Unless you swear then it can and probably will anger it.

Ah ok, I should be safe in that regard. Streaming or not, a deducing game like this I would probably be talking to my self regardless if I'm streaming/recording.

Your mic is always hot, I'm not sure what all the AI can understand but I have noticed the more someone is talking the more active it can become. Heck we told a ghost "Cant even make Bread!" Sent the Ghost into a rage and caused it to start a hunt.

We once told the ghost their “getting a 1-star on Yelp” and immediately sent it into a hunt. Ghost apparently care about that.

Probably because you said "ghost," the rest of the words were probably inconsequential.

Now I'm beginning to wonder if it takes volume into account. Yeah, cursing is often down loudly, but what if a dog or something comes into the room and starts barking? Or someone starts up a vaccumn cleaner near you.

Some words sound similar to others, so I think its more likely that it heard "C*nt even make bread", and that first word is what caused the upset. I sometimes have that because Australian accent, as "can't" does not rhyme with "ant".
(It could also be coincidental, and that sentence was not the precise trigger for the hunt.)
