Will messaging be coming to the app?

Really enjoying my experience with Stadia, nicely done team! Will you be adding messaging in the future? Any rough ETA?

Joke answer: They recently added messaging to Google Photos, so of course it will come to Stadia.

Real answer: I think it's inevitable that chatting/messaging will come to Stadia. Except for on the Nintendo Switch, messaging is a standard feature across all gaming platforms.

I would say "never say never", but Google hasn't even announced plans on this feature, so it might not yet be on their list for Stadia. Therefore I would recommend to leave feedback in the app or on stadia.google.com, so your idea can get some attention from the developers.

It badly needs it. I'm a Veteran of Destiny on the Xbox and playing with new players on Stadia is so difficult if they don't have a mic. I work shifts so can't always talk on a mic myself for fear of waking my family up so being able to drop someone a message explaining how to do something they may not already know about is invaluable. I also fear that new players may get put off because they can't ask for help if they don't have a mic.
