While Google is terrible at this, I believe there is one other major difference: IIRC, Talk did not have cloud sessions. You could not switch from desktop to mobile and continue a conversation right where you left off. (The closet you could get was look at archived messages in Gmail.)
Hangouts, like virtually any modern chat system, does have this. So they did add at least one feature that's pretty useful for people even when not using voice and video.
