Whispering became more frustrating in DT
So, maybe some settings reset, and there's an easy way to fix this I don't know about (I'd love to hear if so), but whispering people has become a major hassle with DT.
Around ShB or EW, I discovered that if I clicked a person's name to whisper them, then hit 'enter', I'd lock my chat into whispering them directly as my current default for messages. FF14's chat is in some ways fantastic, but whispering is definitely not its strong suite, so this workaround was a godsend, and made communication way, way easier.
But this feature has been removed in DT for some reason. Now, if you click someone's name, then hit enter, it doesn't lock them in, it just resets the chat back to whatever channel you were previously using.
This is very frustrating and has made communicating via whispers super annoying.
While I think FF14's whisper system needs an overhaul, I'd settle for just getting this one feature back.
EDIT: Don't reply telling me about /r. The /r system in FF14 is extremely clunky and easily "sniped". I'd use /r if it worked like it does in other MMOs.
