I am a big fan of MORE EMOTES and MORE IDLE ANIMATIONS and MORE DANCES, etc. All those extra character movements bring LIFE to the world, and help prevent a sense of stagnation.
That being said, I hate the recently-added feature that makes my toon turn her head to look in the direction my camera is facing. Mainly because it looks extremely unnatural. The head cranks around too far, and the body tilts up or down at weird angles.
Besides, my camera angle is generally set ABOVE my character, looking down at her from an angle. That means that whenever I am standing in town looking around the place, my toon appears to be searching the ground for her lost contact lenses.
Please make this a toggle-able OPTION.

I was wondering how on earth I never noticed this, then I realised it’s because I always use the left mouse button when I’m looking at my character.

This isn’t recent, either. PCs have always looked when where you point the camera with rclick.
No… It’s new-ish, definitely (within the last 6 months). I have always used right-click for both viewing and movement (my arthritis bothers me less with my middle finger, so I prefer the right-click). I am trying to get used to left-click for viewing, but then I find myself dashing off in the wrong direction when I want to move again.
It saddens me that GW has always been about changing and removing stuff without giving us any options. I (mostly) love the look and feel of the game, but the direction in which they’ve been steering it from launch has had me screaming for an alternative for a long time. THAT is the option I want to see the most: I want to be able to play a comparable game that isn’t always taking stuff away from me, and that has some definite sense of where they want to go. Guild Wars pulls us in so many directions that none of the destinations feel polished, and the bugs keep stacking up. But I haven’t found that mythical game yet, so my options remain limited.
