Chat Bubbles (nerd-rage...ENGAGED!)

CLICK LIKE 4 CHAT BUBBLES.

I know the dev's said no, but dog gonnit', I ain't acceptin' no for an answer. And we shouldn't roll over in silence on the topic. This is sparta!

Options>Enable/disable chat bubbles. The point of this thread is just to remind the devs we still want them.

I like that suggestion. It's pretty nice when you are travelling around the world and find two players sitting close to a road talking about gathering, hunts, etc. Just being able to chat to someone while looking at their character, not a lifeless chatlog, would add a lot of immersion. Sadly this forum is pretty negative, even more if the subject in question is immersion. All of the problems pointed out on the replies to this thread were fixed a long time ago on most MMOs.

Yeah, hence the reason I stopped replying to other post here. Apparently the part to make it a option went over everyones heads. Not gonna keep repeating myself. I know theres an audience that enjoys chat bubbles in this game, I've met them in-game and read past post where people made alot of positive cases to add them. For those that enjoy them and don't see them as clutter, it would add some spice to our experience of the game. For those that find it utterly repulsive, they can disable it. Both groups can be happy. Oh well, this crop of forum warriors are not interested in more options or resources spent to make the game alittle more interesting for some of their audience.

It's all good, not the end of the world.

That's what MMOs mean these days. It's not about a virtual world (or living another life) anymore. MMO developers discovered long ago that exploring the narcissist in everyone attracts a bigger crowd. Run treadmill 1, get gear 1 so you can run treadmill 2 to get gear 2, now you can stand in one of the main hubs all day showing off your superiority. Everything else outside the treadmill is considered pointless and not part of gameplay (hence the mostly pejorative terms used toward such contents).
