I've always found swan neck kettles awkward to use, but never had any issues with normal coffee pots.

  Normal coffee pots splash. Coffee beans after being ground and applying hot water to them are very delicate. A goose/swan neck kettle helps keep the pouring both gentle and consistent to get even extraction. I put off getting a good kettle for way too long and I was seriously surprised how much of a difference it made.

    Is there a difference when using a french press?

      Perhaps not as much of a difference when using a french press, since you'll likely be doing the entire pour upfront.
