Do you prefer voice chat or text chat in games?

[ChocoMagii]

Text with strangers.
Voice with friends.

text, i love to be an incredibly extroverted arrogant persona when i type to people on games like town of salem its so fun because the image isnt shattered if someone heard me do it with a baby squeaky voice

Voice chat usually, it's more convenient. I've never really played games w/ strangers so not sure if I'd still voice chat or text out of shyness.

 

[Tinkalila]

I prefer voice for friends and text for strangers.

I agree, I always voice chat with my friends but it's not that fun for me to voice chat with strangers, I stay in text chat with random match-ups on LoL and Overwatch.

I think voice chat is best because typing gets tiring. Especially when you want to say something quick

 

[AquaStrudel]

If it's a competitive game voice chat is probably better but that scares me eep

 

[Cheren]

Voice chat for friends and competitive, but if I even bother talking to strangers, it's text. Lately I've just had team chat and match chat muted lol.

 

[SolarInferno]

Text mostly. If I'm with friends then I'll usually use Discord or Teamspeak. I don't mind writing though to be honest, and I sometimes prefer text because I can look back at it if it takes time to take it in.

 

[Limon]

I'm the same, voice chat with friends and text with strangers.

 

[Sweetley]

I prefer text chat, I hate voice chat and would never use it.

 

[Snowesque]

Depends on the situation sometimes.
If it's a friendly environment, I can do voice chat. I'd probably end up doing voice chat too if it requires teamwork/voice saves time.
I mostly end up typing.

I prefer text chat for everything. My voice is good for narration or broadcasting, but not so much for the kind of talk you would have while playing a video game, lmao

 

[nanpan]

Voice chat, I don't really like typing much. People tend to also have different personalities text vs voice chat as well, so I think voice chatting is much more personal than typing. I'm usually in a voice channel on discord in all my free time

 

[ali.di.magix]

I don't play a lot of games requiring chat, but I feel text chat does the job most times. Even though I can't really communicate during the game, after a match or something I'll usually talk about something or rather. I've voice chatted a handful of times with friends but I'd never with strangers lol

 

[Ribiveer]

I prefer voice chat the most, but typing is a close second. If there's typing it has to be with a keyboard for me, and with a non-problematic character limit: basically the opposite of ACNL.

 

[Cheren]

it depends! if im comfortable i'll use voice chat because it's easier but i'm a fast typer as well so the two are interchangeable for me. ^_^

 

[lowaltitude]

My laptop's mic is in a really unfortunate place so when I type while I'm voice chatting it sounds like I'm smashing my computer to pieces lmao
But I still prefer voice chat because it's just so much quicker, and you can focus on the game you're playing and spare yourself and your friends/teammates the time of having to read what everybody typed.

Voice chat! I rarely use it because I'm not use to talking for awhile and when I do use it for long my head starts to hurt, but it's easier to get something done in voice chat, especially cause typing with a controller on the ps4 is utter trash and there's not many games that really have much use for a keyboard to actually warrant buying one.

 

[Bosmer]

It depends, I prefer voice chat on both pc and ps4 since it's easier and you can focus better. I'm also a quick typer so whatever is suitable really, though typing on ps4 does get tedious at times.

 

[mogyay]

i'll only voice chat with people i know and even then it's only after a lot of encouragement, i'm fine when i'm actually playing a game and chatting but it takes me a lot to build up the courage to vc because i'm so awkward haha
