I'm probably missing something, so help me out. When someone joins my game, they will sometimes send a message or something to join party chat. What's the point? I can hear you just fine in game chat, and I don't want to hear other people that may be in the party but not the game anyway. And with game chat, I can see peoples' names at the bottom of the screen so I know who is talking, which is VERY helpful in Raid communication.
So, why do some people still insist on party chat?

Honestly it's because in party chat you can focus on the party chat more then the game noise. If the game let you turn down the "pew pew" sound effects so you could more easily hear party members it'd be no big deal. I have a fancy headset so I can do that in game but a lot of people can't.
