    Automated Emote system!

    So I was having a talk with some members in my free company, playing about and talking using our emotes and then I had a sudden idea. Me and the company leader played BDO (Black Desert Online) for awhile and we enjoyed the character communication because it happened to display character emotes based on the texted that was typed. So I thought, what if Final Fantasy XIV had this? It didn't seem like it was too out of there, in fact in theory it seemed easy.

    For the sake of text limit this will be in three posts. The intro (what we have here), Quick questions I thought about and a afterthought.

    Quick questions

    So here's my idea of how it would work, since that would be the main question:

    Word and emoji bank: Based on particular wordings it's possible to automate a emote. For example, "hey!" "Hi!" could trigger the character to wave! Or stating your doubt to someone would trigger them to double. And if you happened to make an emote like ";-;" or ";(" or even "TT_TT", you'd cry.

    What if I don't want this on certain emotes or off all together?: In that case I feel like there could be an option in Character Configuration to set it to off and then a 'advance' tab to fully customised which ones you'd like on and off. Or maybe that 'advance' tab would be featured in the emotes window.

    You expect the whole emote library to be implemented?: No of course not. I'm fully aware that Final Fantasy XIV has A LOT of emotes, even if you don't have the event given ones. But it would still be nice to have for basic emotes.

    Afterthought.

    I really feel like this would improve the communication between players. Of course I don't mind typing in my /cheer or /happy but to be able to have this in the game and to converse with players in forms that's more than just text, I feel like that would bring players together! And make each player feel just alive to each other! I really hope this suggestion is given thought, with pros, cons and criticisms so that we as a community that help think of better ways to make Final Fantasy XIV better than what we already know it to be, even if it's little tiny things!
