The Feast is SO much better without chat

[Ama_Hamada]

Wrong, this thread is showing people debating a subject bothsides feel passionate and justified about.

People disagree, people argue. Restricting means to do so doesn't solve the problem, it merely forces people to withhold tensions and either vent elsewhere, or worse, act on them.

If restricting the chat was the proper fix for this, then what answer would you have for all the new people who have no means to ask questions and learn during a match? Or the veterans who are forced to stay silent and allow avoidable mistakes to go uncorrected?

Well here is the thing, i know why you said jameseoakes is wrong but I really think this point is being missed, especially when no one responded to it. A LOT, I seen a lot of this, toxicity happens because a person is trying to make a request or teach something simple, like " You really do need esuna for that debuff it does a lot of damage" , you know because some people, practically new players can easily overlook how much damage some of the dots do in this game, then pulls out the " do not tell me ho to play" nonsense. Even the this thread maker did it in a way:

What I said went on deaf ears, I can't believe it, so yeah at that point you have to wonder if people like this topic maker are asking for it and provoking such toxic words to be exchanged out of refusal to pull their weight while thinking they are doing well enough. If this was the logic of removing chat from feast then ALL DUTY FINDER CHAT needs to be removed, stop singling out PvP feast because it is easier to do without mass backlash because there is not enough GMs to handle all the complaints in the game. (I am sure a live fest post of asking about PvE chat being removed would got 500+ likes, they just singled out the smallest audience, all it is)

I started posting on these forums specifically because I was appalled over this change.
