All system in game voice chat!

[Kling-Klang]

I dont think its necessary to use up resources to create an ingame voice chat feature.
Most people will keep using teamspeak or discord (just like back then when WoW made one and noone used it).
The players who use a PS4 usually have a teamspeak or discord app installed on their phones.

We already have free 3rd party options to use for voice chat~ is this something SE really needs to spend time and resources on?

What is with the voice hate?

I think those particular reasons are valid enough even if there are throw away but there are others too. Like:

-Hearing voices messes with my concentration in the game.
-Hearing voices messes with my immersion of the game(an RP type reason).
-I am uncomfortable with my heavy accent.
-I can't speak or understand whatever language everyone is using.
-I get serious social anxiety or "stage fright" when I have to speak.
-I have a speech impediment or somekind of issue that makes it hard to speak.
-I'm deaf.
-I am afraid of future harassment. (Generally associated with female gamers.)
-My mic is broken? xD

Or most people just simply don't like it. Or don't want to hear it which is fine. I'm like this. I don't want to hear it.

WoW has ingame voice chat... most people don't even know its there, even less people use it, if at all.

TS, Ventrilo, hell Discord is all thats needed and then some.

Don't want to use it for w/e odd reason, thats on you.

In game voice will make fights much easier, every night when I'm playing feast I hope teammates can hear what I'm saying so I don't need to type them out. Especially when I'm the healer.

But then I realize... if they can hear "I need mp manasong plz now!" they can also hear "Wtf is this **** doing he's blind or what" lol
So, I'll choose no voice lololol

It is not good idea.Like parsers, can be used to harass or starting demand people use it, which is a legit decision use it or not, no one can decide it for your. Voice chat it is better only for friends or statics. And using Discord with is free and run also on smartphones is enough. And not, it is not required for savage or any other content. Can help of course, but is not essential.

Didn't the devs also give a sort of "weird" explanation about the matter like how they don't want to do this because they don't want female players to feel harassed through voice chat or something?

How is that a "weird" explantion when its a real issue? I remember Titan HM sell-adds offering free service for girls joining their TS...
While this might only be one reason, as a female player I do consider it a good one (sadly...)
Harassment wouldnt only be limited to female players though - this was discussed before and I'll repeat myself: As soon as they add a voice chat to the game its a pretty strong signal that the content is supposed to be played using voice chat, making it a mandatory option for things like PF or even DF. And no, thanks - its easy enough to get a voice chat working with the game, if you WANT that. No need to waste ressource on an ingame voice chat that has enough potential to cause harm...

(I could also imagine that it would be more difficult for the GMs to take actions against harassment that happend in voice chat - they can acces our chat logs, but... if they would want to do the same with the voice chat they had to record it... so...)

Discord is the way to go currently
I do not know if i would support built in voice chat, but if it's like other chat programs out there see no issue

I also like the anonymous nature of the normal type chat. It shouldn't matter who I'm playing with but as it is you really don't know and that's a great thing.

This 100%.
