Looking for PC games with active voice chat parties like the old Black Ops II lobbies
When I was a kid and I played console, it felt like almost every game I played had some sort of active voice chat community. Yeah, it was toxic A LOT, but it made the game feel alive. Nowadays when I play games, even online games, it feels like a solo experience. I want a game that actively encourages me to connect with people like they used to. I'm sure some games like this have to still exist somewhere, I used to play Valorant and that kinda gave me a similar vibe, only thing is that servers only had active VCers like 40% of the time, the other times you're just sitting in silence with the occasional "nt" in chat. CSGO is basically the same way, some servers are full of voice chat, others are completely silent. GTA 5 voice chat in online is almost completely dead, and for FiveM RP servers, that's just not really my thing anymore.
Any suggestions?
