There is absolutely nothing immersive about typing to communicate with people next to you, nor having cross-continent conversations via 3rd party voice apps like discord. This isn't 2006. Games these days, especially of the RP variety, should have a high quality voip.. Any communications outside of that is a flat out immersion killer. It is called meta-gaming in most RP communities and is often a ban-able offense .

What's more immersion breaking, knowing that someone, somewhere, might potentially be talking about the game while playing the game on a third party app, or the dumbfuck marching down the street blasting metallica cause its funny for them?

I mean, the same can be said about someone spamming text chat making it impossible to use and communicate. That's why we have mute buttons.
