    While casting spells, UP/DOWN does not highlight names on party list

    After selecting a spell, using UP/DOWN to select party members does not highlight members names on the party member list.

    Platform: Windows
    ISP: AT&T
    Type of Internet Connection: DSL
    Internet Connection Speed: 6Mbps
    Date & Time: Always
    Frequency: Always
    Character Name: Smashington Who
    Race: Reogadyn
    World: Rabanastre
    Class/Skill Rank: Gladiator/34
    Physical Level: 42
    Area and Coordinates: All Areas
    Party or Solo: Party
    NPC Name: None
    Monster Name: None
    In-Game Time: Always
    Steps:

    1.) Select "Cure"
    2.) Promted to select a target
    3.) Press UP/DOWN to select party members from party list.
    4.) [Bug] Party Member's names are not highlighted on party list.

    This is true for both Target Mode A and Target Mode B.

    Currently, party member list names are highlighted only if you do not have a spell cued.

    Because I do not know which party memeber it is selctng, I cannot cure members reliably. Then party members die. This is sad. There are many succesful targeting systems available in video games to copy from.

    FFXIV has none of them.

    Shall I give up on this game completely?

    Who am I kidding? Even if you fix targeting the game will not magically become fun.
