Emotes

[Nakiamiie]

I'd be satisfied with just upgrading the current emotes and animations.

Why are chocobo animations so weird? instead of it coming around and you riding it it appears under you, or how when you dismount you just fall off instead of dismounting?

Why can't we walk in battle mode?

I know its kinda nit picky but ever since they announced 2.0, [DEV] threads kinda disappeared lol.

I feel the same for the small details, it bothers me every single time, haha.
I figured maybe I was asking for too much perfection and should deal with it.

I'm all for adding many new animated emotes though, using emotes is really fun and I try to do it as often as possible.
(Have you ever tried an "emote war"? You only speak with your friends with standard emotes -- not the custom one-- it can be really fun and challenging discussion, haha. It also makes good practice to try to be understood by other players who don't speak your language and the auto-translate don't have the proper terms).

The emote-war sounds like a lot of fun and I'll be sure to try it soon. ^^

I think they should add synonyms for all emotes too.
For example, both /laugh and /lol emote to /laugh.
/yes and /nod emote to /yes
etc.

True but its the small details of the text that's coming out, and also it would be kinda handy to be able to type synonyms for all emotes. As Nakiamiie has already said.^^

I also don't like the text that comes out for /upset "Solus Sylvari stares at Sparkle pants in disgust"... I'm upset not disgusted... So it would be nice for that to be corrected and a /disgust emote to be added.

I agree on changing the Roegadyn dance. It looks like someone just told us to dance, and we're rolling our eyes and giving a token gesture in the hopes that they'll leave us the fuck alone. I wanna, you know, actually have my character look like he's dancing because he wants to.

Please my Elzen looks like he is dancing to win the least inspired dance ever.

He just sort of shuffles his feet and looks depressed.

I actually noticed that recently as well. lol

I think the Lalafell have been given the best dance so far.

I'm sure there is many threads on emotes already, but rather than reviving an old post i decided to start a new one.

I'm sure I'm not the only one that wants to see some more emotes and perhaps a change to a few of the current.

I don't know about the other races but the Roegadyn /dance is so awful it shouldn't be seen... Not to mention the /wave motion the Roegadyn has is a little over the top like I'm trying to wave down some giant ship... I wouldn't mind having a simple wave just to wave at someone rather than the current.

Although /slap and /smile don't usually have motions to go with them i do miss them quite a bit and would like to see the addition of many more emotes in the future of the game.

That being said i wouldn't mind hearing other peoples thoughts on the matter.

I feel you, my Roegadynmate.
