    Facial expressions.

    I would like there to be a way to change your characters standard facial expression. Looking at lalafel, they always look so angry... I'm sure some of them would like to smile most of the time rather than frown.

    I don't mind the default facial expression...but we having a "mood sign" (it's super-duper gay...i know...no need to tell me this) at enemy and ally sign menu, where we could set a temporary mood to our character until you cancel or enter in active mode (no one will fight in shy or happy expression so i do think it should be canceled when we go in active mode).

    What a mood sign would do: Change your character facial expression to the chosen one and add a mood bubble on your character whie the mood sign is active.

    I also would love seeing facial emotes, like showing tongue, blushing, grinning, smirking, raising only one eyebrow for disbelief expression, etc.

    Heh, that sounds like old SIM games. Mood bubbles would be humorous, but with the high detail of graphics they put into the characters, they could do better with actual facial expression changes rather than just over-head bubbles. And just think of how much space on your screen would be taken up if everyone is running around with a mood bubble above them. People will want that to be toggle'd and such.

    Its what i said.

    "What a mood sign would do: Change your character facial expression to the chosen one and add a mood bubble on your character whie the mood sign is active."

    Having only the bubble would make no sense at all...the character expression needs to change too. ^^

    I'm against the whole mood bubble thing: that would create so much clutter in populated places!

    I don't think the mood matter is of any importance to be frank. I wouldn't mind being able to pick between several facial expressions, but I don't mind not having the choice either: it's too insignificant to me.

    I like the facial idea, well tbh more like a whole "auto-motion" than solely facial exprecion, but to get it a use, how?

    Simple, like when people go away from keyboard.... its some troublesome when you wait long time explaining how run gona works to party members and when you finish you dont know who is away from keyboard and who still there, then woops you find out people afk once inside dungeon, and similar moments while doing infinity of other things like leves and Notorious Monsters and alot of other things.... Well an auto-motion putin people like in a state of sleeping or something warning us people is afk would be nice....

    How to make it works?, like lets say when there isn't an input into controller of keyboard while 5~10 minutes then our characters enters into this "Auto-motion" warning us about he afk.

    This idea could also works for alot other situations, but setin a perma facial gesture until you take it off to demonstrate to party members you're happy or angry doing certain thing, but this last idea is irrelevant i think.
