Would be nice if you could do the dragon shout thing with just a mic, no kinect needed.
AFAICT there is such a mod… But don't hold me too it, as I would not be caught dead "shouting" at(or talking to) my PC. The neighbors would think I had lost it, or worse(since I only game in the wee morning hours).
Anyway I think I found it, click the following link for "ThuuMic":

In addition to shouts, you can call your horse by name and issue commands to companions(or at least the mod description indicates as much).
-EDIT-
As for the video I agree with Dart and JDR, the enhancements were primarily of an immersive nature vice a design/mechanic.
That said, I would still like to see some of them make into the game via dlc(preferably free
):
-Seasonal foliage
-Flow-based Water Shader
-Stealth enhancements
-Mounted combat
-Build your own home(more customizable the better)
-Enhanced underwater visuals
-Spell combos
-Goblins, vampire imps
-spears
As for other immersion enhancements that would be most appreciated(for me anyway):
-The ability to perform/attempt a bull rush be it successful or not... I don't know if anyone else ever tried sprinting into a random NPC, but doing so would cause them to stagger and typically say something. My idea is to make the sprint also function as a bull rush/charge if engaging another human/or creature, where the individual with higher stamina remains upright and the other is knocked to the ground and "dazed". The penalty for a failed charge, in addition to being knocked on the ground and dazed, is a loss of all stamina.
-Expanded bestiary, the goblins and vampire imps are a nice start but more monsters/humanoids is always a plus.
-Expanded magic system, the idea of adding spell combos is nice but magic is still lacking… Skyrim needs more spells in general(eg haste, curses, ect)
-Spears are a good start, but what about polearms? Polearms + mounted combat could be a blast(if done right).
-Guild leader(companions, thieves, mage, dark B) needs to have some depth to it. Perhaps the ability to give out assignments or improve the guild via guild's or personal funds? Better interactions/convos between leader and subordinates.
-No more attack horses. I'm tired of my horse charging off and getting killed.
