maybe people would use the in-game voice chat more then.
it would be nice with the option at least…
it could be like twitch where people can spectate a player from external web pages like blizzard.com as well, and blizzard would make money from the donations

If this game started sharing my house and face with random people from the internet, I think I’d finally stop playing.

it could be optional so that you have to chose to share your web cam

For sure.

OP’s idea is amongst the most awful ideas I’ve ever seen on this forum.
I don’t even want to chat with most people in WoW. Let alone talk to them. And least of all show my face to them.

Also… Imagine Goldshire with webcams. Yeah.

Other dedicated video conference apps struggle with stable 15fps in 640x480 resolution with 5 participants in a LAN setting. I don’t think it would be technically feasible for a game like WoW to have that feature without it impacting performance.

I’m not sure that’s true anymore, Discord, Teams and Zoom can happily manage 20 participants in HD video across the web.

I still don’t want this to be added to the game though.

Think I heard someone eating their mic last time someone was on it.

TBH in game chat is kind of dead these days, thanks to discord

Why would i want to show my face to complete random people ? :thinking:
