And that is why setting the default option to mute would have solved everything. Kids actually have to put effort to unmute and talk to others (more than its worth). You don't have to do anything by default since everyone is muted. Experts and competitive people can turn on voice chat for their competitive teams. In your solution, only you win. In this solution, everyone wins.


Expecting features in Splatoon that are in hard core FPS like Halo and COD is like expecting to be able to adjust the gear ratio of your cars in Mario Kart. This is a different game designed for a different audience. 


Sorry, but that is a bs statement and a bad analogy. Voice chat is not limited to genres and does not detract from a game but rather adds to it (similar to good menus, video game lobbies, and online play). It would be one thing to expect splatoon to have a certain gun or gun class, but we are expecting it to have a feature that is common place in mmo's, rts games, shooter games, fighting games, etc. ... especially in this year. If you don't like the feature don't use it, but that shouldn't mean that you should remove the feature so others can't benefit from it. Having a voice chat option with default to off has literally no downside. This is a blatent mistake on Nintendo's part that should be fixed
