So to correct, all what's really needed is a microphone. I have one that I use, and fiddling with the volume is usually enough that I don't get feedback.
Yeah, you just need to get a decent mic and the right settings for the auto voice pick-up thing to work since it was designed for consoles which by de facto use a headset since you don't have a desk in front of you to have a mic.

The headset helps though by having a set distance from your mouth.
