Request: Can we have Chat / Emote Bubbles?

[Nektulos-Tuor]

Chat and Emote bubbles (comic book style) are a cool part of the game that I would love to have. It is some times very hard to see what people are saying and the bubbles over peoples head has always made it much much easier. Its a lot better then always looking in the corner.

They have already said that this would be too much for the PS3 to handle. So no at least as long as the PS3 is supported.

Personally I don't want chat bubble anyways.

Why does it have to be an enabled feature for PS3?

We have the PS4 now.

You may have a PS4, I don't. Although I'll admit I play mostly on my PC.

Why can't it be disabled for PS3. I highly doubt PS3 owners would raise the stink. They know the limits of the PS3.

Hey I'm just saying what the dev response was (I believe it was in a live letter?). I think they like to keep the UI's as similar as possible between the versions. There are things I'd love to have, like a party TP bar, that they said they have not implemented because of the PS3 (although they are trying to figure out a way to do a TP bar for all versions).

Direct X 11 version of the game should have chat bubbles then.

Couldn't they just swap MP with TP bar for classes that rely on either MP or TP.

No, because there are classes that rely on both to a degree, possibly more so with the 3 new jobs coming out. They could have whatever they think the class uses more displayed, but that's just sacrificing 1 thing for another, and not everyone may be happy about that.

Bards use TP for Damage, MP for support, so it'd be more personal preference in what they'd want to have displayed.

Ugh. Chat bubbles are evil.
