I don't know how realistic proximity chat would be implemented but it would make raids much more immersive in my opinion. It might increase the toxicity on the other hand but also allow for more coordination in fights.

Having been in a variety of voice calls for this game, that's just asking for half the most active veteran players to be permanently banned. It would be all fun and games for the first month or two, but it'd become extremely toxic pretty quick. Or you'd just have a degen moaning loudly into the microphone random thinking that behaving like a 12 year old is funny

There could be an option to turn it off, plus there could be a team only voice chat

#

If I remember correctly, in the anime they had headsets to communicate

An opt-in system would be the only way you could implement this and even then it'd have some liability. Though in practice if you're in a team that is comfortable enough with each other to use voice communication, you're likely also on Discord, which has taken over a lot of voice chat even in games that have inbuilt voice chat systems. There's definitely utility to it, i'm not denying that. The hard truth is that it opens up risk to Hitspark, it has a higher potential for creating issues inside the game as there's an untraced, unfiltered communication channel, and in practice those who would use something like that as intended are likely to outsource it to purpose built platforms like Discord

It would be funny but ultimately wouldn't work and could be annoying after a while 😔
