Speech Bubbles - Thoughts?

[Fensfield]

Oh I would kill for this.. it's been my number one requested feature from day one, and was my biggest dislike of FF XI, too.

Sure, there are people here don't like it, but all of the reasons not to like it that I've seen could be answered by simply making them toggleable, which would be the logical thing to do anyway. I mean, really, all these people screaming yay! over them not being implemented.. seriously? Why not just a toggle option? Is it really so horrific giving the people that really want them the option when you can just leave them switched off? That strikes me as kinda jerk-y..

Even if someone official's come in and said there are no plans at this time, I really hope that opinion changes eventually. Speech bubbles, be they transparent boxes of Vagrant Story-esque (which is something can already be said of FF XIV's style) bubbles, would, for me, go a very long way for making this world perfect.
