Chat Text Bubbles over Player Characters?

[BrachyXIV]

They already addressed this and said it was a no go iirc.

But I mean if your eyesight is not good and your peripheral vision cannot pick up text scroll so you know to look at your chat box, which is the only way I can process the chat box being in the corner as being an issue, one solution to this would be to create that 4th chat box we can use, set it to just show say yell tell etc. adjust the font size and color to how you want it, turn background transparency to 100% then just place it somewhere more central on your screen so you can see everything in real time without having to move your eyes. The ways in which we can change and adjust the UI in this game are almost endless.

And if it's hard to see 1 msg or name amongst what has to be a crazy amount of players and spam bots on your server compared to mine if it takes you more than a few seconds, much less 10 minutes to find 1 name in the mix, floating text is not going to help that, esp in super crowded areas where those spam bots are just going to create even more clutter even if you have distance turned on, esp considering how long their msgs can be. I mean if you are near anyone advertising their fc or an rmt pushing their wares, even on the smallest text setting their msg is going to take up a significant portion of your screen's real estate. Also considering how fast they would have to disappear to prevent your game from coming to a standstill in crowded areas, it would be difficult to read anything but a brief "hello how are you" anyway.

I have a separate box just for chat so I don't miss anything and it works beautifully. Although it keep it in the corner anyway since I can rely on my peripheral vision to see when a msg pops up and its easy to glance down to read. But if your eyesight is bad, this may help.

I have found NOTHING about developers addressing Chat/Text bubbles would you mind directing me to this?

Yes, it's hard to read names following messages especially when a lot of people are talking and you have to double check to see the name attached to the rest of the message. I would love for this Roleplaying game to have character stalking, not a Text Log.
