Folks....on Xbox one
It's on the right because the guide is on the left.....also there are in-game indicators on the left so when adding a new feature, you tend to see these things added less intrusive. It makes perfect sense you just have to be open to new things.

(This from a guy who is anti-text chat for Xbox one, but said I'd give it a real try so I'm doing it all this week)
It's a non-issue

The PC version has pop-ups on the right, ours are on the left. The text box is always opposite of those pop-ups.
That's what it has to do with placement in respects to ZOS.

I merely wanted o also point out the guide because text chat, party, or any other guide related actions would completely block the text box of on the left.

I'm not sure who decided to put the chat box on the right middle side of the screen.. but its.. well feels wrong. Most mmo have the chat on the left side of the screen.. any chance you could make it so we can move it... or at least different option of chat locations.

It's a work in progress mufasa so you never know, I hope that they'll add a slider so it doesn't keep fading out.

OMG yes plz!!!! ZOS plz add a fade slider or a toggle to keep chat on at all times. It fades away too fast imo n I've missed a ton a info on screen jus by looking away for a few secs or a quick afk lol.
