    It’s funny how they struggle with voice chat while Battlebit manages to keep in the Steam charts with voice chat enabled by default and without major complaints.

    They’ve had this system in Overwatch for months now and that’s still a toxic hellpit. Now I don’t think that the majority of gamers are actually awful. If they were games like Baldur’s Gate 3, which is unrelentingly gay (despite the “go woke, go broke crowd”), wouldn’t get overwhelmingly positive steam reviews. But I do think the execs in charge of Overwatch and COD believe that the toxic people are a bigger group than they are and don’t want to lose them as revenue streams.
