So long as I can turn it off which judging from the PR you can. I find TTS really distracting, canāt take anything seriously since itās always just so damn goofy.
I can imagine itās gonna be used in the most LRP ways possible for a while till the novelty wears off but hopefully I get proven wrong.

Didnāt we have a topic about this a few weeks ago talking about how this is not a good idea?

I said something similar in #cm-discussion but Iāll echo what I think here too.
I think this is a solid accessibility feature and I see no downsides to it being merged AS AN OPT-IN SETTING
The way I percieve TTS in SS13 is that its kind of goofy, it kind of gives John Madden: https://youtu.be/Hv6RbEOlqRo which I think if default enabled would give the wrong impression about the intended RP standards of the server. I can also see people abusing this pretty heavy with silly models and spam.
I am very wary of nudging things towards LRP as we currently have a pretty solid balance, but im open to being proven wrong, I just think we should consider if this is a default going forward.

The stupid majority that couldnāt comprehend that it would always be a toggle option, not permanent addition that canāt be disabled.
These type of guys complain about admin midis even though you can disable them too.

This is a bad idea. I am strongly against it. It will foster LRP forcing mods to intervene more.

I have lots of cringe clips.
Highlights are:
ebrbrbr
John Madden
and everyone with a high pitch voice.
One dude has basically figured out how to make enemy soldier from HL 1 first round.
Also the TTS can pronounce skibidi.

I love TTS, tho the micro-lag we seem to keep experiencing is quite painful

Do you know if we can write any of the code in C++ for inter-process communication?
Like adding .dll?

cue the lag spikes, the dropship sound spammers, the mismatch between baked-in emotes, and the people using the voices from underage characters that are part of the collection for their 20 year old women

That is a good point and needs to be taken into account. It will not matter if you can turn it off if the increased lag remains. Less lag the better is always good.
