Is there a way to turn off so it doesn't say common?

Post by Lady of Memes »

It kinda ruins immersion a little bit for me. I use the novel style of emoting so it doesn't make sense that my emotes are labeled 'common'. Also before the last update, if you didn't pass the roll while saying something in another language, it'd just say it in common and in the combat bar it'd say 'unintelligible gibberish'. I really-really liked how this worked because it was like you were actually learning the language as some people who learn languages mix their first language and the one they're trying to learn.

I don't see any way to turn off the [common] tag.
It's driving me nuts.

Don't click weird links, kiddos.

It didn't work. Maybe the reset will fix it. What about the common thing? When trying to talk in another language if you fail, it used to go back to common and in the combat log say 'unintelligible gibberish'. Idk if that was a bug but that would be great to implement back again. I loved that.

By default, common should not have a tag (since it's the default). Other languages should.

It's a clarity thing.

In my opinion.

Yes can we have that as per default would save some time having to type that for each login/Server reset.

You don't have to type it each login. It persists, just like console_mode.
