I don't mind voice chatting if I join from the start, but coming in midway can be kinda awkward XD
|
100% agree on the dead air. which is why i'm normally playing a game or watching something or something along those lines with 'em or something to help push conversation along hahah.
|
https://misnina.itch.io/a-vast-quack yo yo yo I finished the game!!
also the less you care about dead air the better. let everyone be quite for a little bit, it's okay, the conversation will come back round : ) |
Wowie, I'm with most others on this!
I hate phone calls, actually. I've gotten used to them with my girlfriend, but even then, if we pause, we both feel the need to small talk. I love quietly existing with people, just, not on the phone. |
I always sorta come in mid voice chat and then make everyone regret I joined :DD
Aka yelling some random song EDIT: i just took that meme test in #random and after comparing my results to the others I'm absolutely terrified to stick around |
I would probably never VC online, although sometimes I wish I had the confidence to...or had people to VC with. xD
|
i've grown a lot more confident about vcing lately in the past years. never would have about 3 years ago, but slowly but surely got myself there. can recommend it, too. feels like it has helped me grow a lot as a person. i guess finding that person that you can trust might be necessary, but.. they're easier to find than you might think!
|
If I play video games with people its easy
any other scenario and it's mission impossible yes im a very boring person :v |
I think VC whilst playing games - probably MHGU - would be easier for me than just talking too, but...well, trusting people enough to let them hear what I sound like is difficult. I've had people judge me based on my voice before and it's...tiring. I've had people record me before and spread the audio file around, so...yeah, trust is not easy.
|
best part of VCs is when you're playing a game with everyone
|
I play games no one else here plays tho :<
|
CAH or other fun interactive games during VC tho can be good!

regarding voicing while playing video games, obviously it makes for some good communication as to what happens in the game and it can make for some great friendship dynamic if everything turns out well and everything is a lot of fun. definitely personally also am a talking person myself so i also still very much like just hanging out with people without doing much haha. dead airs don't do too much with me, i suppose i usually also am kind of a person who can keep the dead air down and keep things going myself, but even when i can't i just like being comfortable with the other person and i guess letting them know that and that they can be comfortable too without much talking happening at all times. |
tbh I think the truth is that I'm just not meant to have any kind of interaction with others beyond the very casual and I need to accept this rather than only accept it when it doesn't bother me. Sometimes it's fine, but other times it's very lonely and I find it harder to deal with than I would trying to explain things to people.
I think VC with PvE games would just make life easier, haha. Co-ordination is key in games like Monster Hunter and it's easier to do with the talking than it is the awfully limited messages you can write out. |
I barely have interactions with anyone outside of ranked games \ :'v /
Voice has the advantage that it doesnt really have that "delay" when you need to type something. |
I would hate voice because I hate how I sound on the phone.
|
I hate how I sound on the phone too but I've gotten more used to it after work due to headset/taking phone calls/etc haha.
|
tbh i don't know anybody that doesn't hate how their voice sounds recorded/over the phone
|
The weird thing is everyone else sounds like they do in person. When I heard myself after leaving a voice mail it was like Holy Shit do I really sound like that.
|
IIRC it's because when you speak your voice vibrates your eardrums so it's distorted, whilst if you hear it through a recording you don't have that? Something like that. I hate how I sound either way tbh. xD
|
I sound mediocre at best
|
i've been told that i sound mousy but also that i'mnot that high pitched and honestly it's because when i'm nervous i get high or when i'm trying to sound super nice lol
|
Tara you sound fine! I never noticed you sounding mousy at all :<
|
I would actually like to VC with PC, but I never have. Mostly because it was be from desktop PC, and other people are almost always around so I can't easily do it. ;o;
|
I find it to be odd is the best way I can describe it to talk to others I don't really know. xD
