Do you want Scrolling/Floating Combat text, and chat bubbles in ESO?

Ryiah✭I want the option to enable/disable them.
This is an Elder Scrolls game. The developers implement a very minimalist system and then "allow" add-on developers to do the actual work of making it useful.butthurtlocker wrote: »Minimal UI is part of the game design. I don't want this to be World of Warcraft.
We're not asking for a complex UI, we're asking for basic improvements to the existing UI to make it better. Or do you consider basic concepts like being able to search in the Guild Store a "WoW-like feature"?Edited by Ryiah on May 5, 2014 7:05PM0 -
nzblustone✭✭The floating text is done via addons, this is how Zenimax have chosen to deal with things like this. If you have a bias against addons then that is your own issue to deal with, but addons are a part of ESO intentionally. Either use them or don't, but don't expect Zenimax to add something they intentionally made possible in the API.
If anything, request they open up the API in whatever way is needed for someone to make a chat bubble addon for you.Founder of Imperial Traders Guild [NA] [PC-mac] • Guild Website • ESO Forum Thread

wafffllesss✭✭✭I want the option to enable/disable them.My Idea for this is:- Configurable distance for fade of bubbles
- Area of focus on the center of the screen, bubbles in there would be less opaque and smaller.
- Distant bubbles would be less opaque and even smaller.
- Target focus: Bubbles from your target would be more opaque and highlighted.
- Text should continue showing on current chat box.

✭I want the option to enable/disable them.This post is garbage, and the poster is trash: because it ties two totally unrelated things together; the ancient-relic practice of plastering pen and paper numbers on a video game (which only studios so jaded as to fart ghosts should ever do) and "chat bubbles" an unassuming option.
Perfect example of how to make a garbage poll.
Do you want abortion banned and better gun control? See how that doesn't work?
All I got from this was garbage
At least the spelling is difficult for you.
