> we will be integrating this into Element so you can have voice and video rooms, and hold group video calls inside the Element app natively over Matrix.

This is super exciting for me because it might mean I can move my friend group away from Discord. Does the Element team have plans to create audio-only rooms where you can see who's in the call without joining (like Discord)? And will we be able to create calls without notifying the entire room like it does currently?

Yup. The whole point of Element Call is to provide native Matrix-based voice/video calling for Discord style usage inside Element. MSC3401 even has support for initiating a call as a voice/video room already :)
