Emotes

[Sylvari]

For when words can't express what your feeling an emote can suffice.^^ Sometimes I really can't be bothered explaining that I'm not happy with something and /angry works a treat. Or when I'm really happy with someone I can type /joy. Having a larger list just helps with the creativity and the fun we can experience.

I wouldn't mind seeing a few class specific emotes. If your current class was a Marauder, you could do some stereotypical pirate emote, like /arrrrgh or whatever. Conjurers could /pray to the elementals. Pugilist could have a threatening /scowl while punching the palm of their hand. Just hope you don't owe them money. Botanist could give someone a /bouquet of flowers and so on.

Not sure what emotes the other classes could do.




P.S. Aliases would be very, very nice too.

I love the idea of class specific emotes, XI had them and /jobemote blm was so awesome.

Ah! As a botanist, I love the idea of a /bouquet emote!

Did anyone ever play The Sims Online lol? They had some interesting emote choices. The majority of actions in that game required approval from the other player which I think could easily be implemented. You go into /hug someone and if they approve the reaction is a hug, if they disapprove the action is some sort of refusal whether a shove or another gesture. It was a pretty neat concept, not saying SE would ever do it, but it would offer a whole new dynamic to emotes.

I wish they'd change the emote's text when you /rally someone.
I'm not trying to comfort you, I'm trying to rally !

It would be nice if you can target a player using /hug or /kiss or something and it asks the targeted player if they'd like to accept the emote action. lol

It could be a whole other thing they could start, like /dance with a target asks if they want to dance with you, etc. lol Maybe even /carry or something, if you want to pick up another character.

i would like a fully functioning /slap emote. cmon, everyone has been there, when someone says or does something that deserves a good /slap, lol

Maybe they could borrow heavily from the Three Stoogies and we could get a nice little slapstick routine going.
