Emotes: /liedown or /playdead?

[actualcactus]

Hello! Sorry if this might be the wrong place to post a small suggestion I've been thinking of, still a bit new around here. o/

One of the things I've really loved about this game is the huge number of emotes available to us, but I've also noticed there's a pretty obvious one missing? I would love to see, say a /liedown or /recline emote to lie on the ground anywhere (not just in a bed) and take a nap in the grass, or possibly a /playdead emote that goes through our normal "death" animation, arms splayed out and weapon dropped and all. Maybe it was never added because of the possibility of clipping issues in some areas, but tbh my hair clips enough with most outfits that at this point I've come to accept it as the norm.

It's just a small and silly suggestion, but others I know have also wanted something similar, and I can imagine some pretty interesting shenanigans that could come out of having an emote like this.

Yes please!


God forbid I mention WoW around here, but I always enjoyed doing /sleep in random places when I went afk or just when standing around waiting on stuff in town and whatnot

agree. Even now after many years of no WoW I still sometimes want to type in /sleep when I go afk somewhere nice.

I know, I really want it too. But apparently the reason for not implementing it is the possibility of misuse. It's a shame thogh, it'd be nice to lie down in the grass and look at the sky, i.e. People will always find ways to abuse the emotes we already have, anyway.

Because of abuse???
That's ridiculous....if the devs want to see abuse of emotes they should check out that "creepy screenshots" thread. I mean c'mon now.

If the female Miqo'te /doze in bed emote is anything to go by, we're sadly way past that point already. I'm going to go ahead and blame the Lalafells...

I've seen threads about requesting such an emote.
I have a mighty need for it as well, OP.

Didn't someone already post a topic like this a couple weeks ago?
