Guild Wars 2

When I untick the ‘/say’ option for a chat tab, it doesn’t disable the speech bubbles that pop up over peoples’ heads in the world. While this might not seem like much of an issue, it’s a ~big~ problem for me, and I imagine many others.

While I’ve got a great guild and the community is generally pretty wonderful, there are parts of it that really aren’t, and during some open world content (especially world bosses) a lot of people say some really offensive, hurtful, and trauma triggering things. I know I can block and report, but there’s only so much my sanity can handle, and it would be fantastic if I could properly shield myself from things that make the game really unpleasant during certain content.
I know everyone must be busy pushing the expansion out, but this would be a really big quality of life improvement!

That option is in your full options panel I believe.

Edit: Last option in the chat panel using the cogwheel is a check box to show in game bubbles.

Wow, I never knew that was there! Thank you SO MUCH!
