Whispering

Post by Neil »

So, I was thinking about this the other day. Often times we are whispering to each other and someone will emote, 'Neil whispered something to Frey." It got me thinking... can this be automatically included whenever someone uses the whisper function?
Thus we do not have to emote it, and it goes along more with the idea of 'seeing' someone whisper to another dreamer? I also thought this might be annoying to see all of the x whispered something to y and y whispered something to x, in the dialog box, especially during events. So, in addition, the possibility of having this functionality could be toggled on/off in the settings.

Thoughts?

It actually is a function of the game, most of the time it's the game doing it, not the players.

There is a % chance that this emote will trigger whenever someone whispers. You don't see your own emote, but others do. This is supposed to encourage people potentially reacting to seeing others whispering to each other.

Ah, I didn't know that! Can we increase the %'s! I always thought it was others emoting it. Now I feel dumb when I have done it myself! LOL
