Please let PS4 parse our dps like pc

You don't really need in-game voice chat when PS4 provides their own, and also most players opt to use Discord. You can get the app for this on smartphones so no, PS4 players are not at any disadvantage

My first question to you is are you a PS4 player that plays FFXIV on there because it seems like you are not.

I use the PS4 voice chat system but not everyone else in groups do so as there are PS4/PC players so that is already void.

You are saying use the discord app on your phone but how do I use that and still able to hear the game volume on my ps4 using my headset that is connected to my controller and using the discord at the same time without having to sacrifice quality? As it kinda defeats the purpose of having a really good quality/expensive headset if I can't even use it's mic to talk to the other players on discord and having the headset to hear the game sounds via my PS4 at the same time etc.

If it's so easy to setup please let me know how thanks.

FFXIV is a cross-platform game and having a in-game voice would make the whole setup miles more easier. Having multiple devices to be able to do so isn't ideal especially if you have to reduce the audio quality in having to do so.

Yes I am a PS4 player and I have absolutely no issue playing with others or communicating with other people, to each their own. Personally I have the game playing from my TV, and the discord (though my phone) speaking out aloud and that works for me. Possibly you could also purchase a headphone splitter to receive sounds from two sources in to one if that is your concern.

Anyway as I said it's difficult to monitor voice chat in-game, and it's a transfer of data which the servers could probably do without. I don't know of any Pay to Play cross platform MMOs with voice chat...
