Sparetent.9756 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Is there a way to block this annoying NPC from constantly whispering me in chat? The voice doesn't bother me, but constantly seeing pink text from NPC's is unacceptable. There's a specific chat for "dialogue" in the chat menu, which allows you to disable it. If you disable "whisper" you cannot see messages from other players. 8 3 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 The chat's whisper notification sound is truly annoying, but so are her whispers. If I hear another "An ambush! Your friend's voice was a ruse. Very... clever!", I will start screaming frantically and pull out my hair. Or something like that. 😅 4 2 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, especially this line seems to have a longer range than others, that or it just plays more often. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IAmNotMatthew.1058 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Disabling NPC dialogues in chat will stop her whispers. Other than that there is no specific way to stop her whispers. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Templar.4589 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 In my opinion the whisper functionality should have been reserved for player to player chat and should not have been used for NPC verbiage. 9 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costepj.5120 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 I think a little extra immersion is good for the game. I jumped the first time Igne Mossheart whispered me in Echovald 🙂 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not nearly as bad as the consortium NPC in old LA... "Citizens! ...." "Citizens! ...." "Citizens! ...." I don't remember the rest of it.

Farohna.6247 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 (edited) As a revenant player it's more like oh good another voice to have a conversation with 😂 I like the voice, lovely voice acting btw. But can we make the whisper chat a different color? It is a bit confusing at first, especially if one does not have the volume on. Put it in italics AND a different color so I can tell in an instant that it's a non player whispering me. Looked it up: voiced by Patty Mattson, who also voiced Sylvanas in WoW...also a long standing favorite bit of voice acting for me. Cheers to the continued fantastic work!

Urud.4925 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 (edited) Personally I find more annoying the bip of the whisper. Most of the time her voice is so low that I can't even understand what she says, unless I read it, so during my second story playthrough I started to mock her "mumble mumble" every time she speaks, and I actually have some fun :D But yeah, the whispers are annoying with that sound. Still, less than the "you discovered a ley-line, but you can't use it". It bothers me though, that everyone can whisper me, and I can't block them, like, who gave my contact to these people?

Lucy.3728 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I find all of it annoying. Nothing kind of nice. Except when you first play, but once you get through the story, that should be the end of it. Because all the information is already out by then. After that it becomes a nuisance. As a Rev, I'm already frequently verbally mobbed by all the Legends with the same comments over and over, why do they need to add another unwelcome chatterbox? And the whispering problem is even worse. I get whispered at by players in WvW and by friends and sometimes even by random PVE players, but I don't want to be whispered at by NPC. They can shout at me like NPCs do. But not whisper. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KindredPhoenyx.8976 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Man some of these responses are thirsty af. Anyway as someone who's been triggering the AN AMBUSH.... repeatedly back to back not even 1 second apart because of a specific event in that area being up at the same time, I do wish there was a way to disable it. Or rather, just have it prompt once to cache that you've been in the area and it doesn't pop again after the fact. Because by god it's obnoxious as hell. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalanuLachance.4576 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 It is as Zojja said, when you told her "I'm not used to taking orders." "A lot has changed." The namechange comes with a clear degradation of your status in the world. In the future, you'll be a simp probably. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico.9361 Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I hope that if or when we kill her in the story, she'll finally stop talking to my toon. I play herald, I already have plenty of voices in my head. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico.9361 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Now that I think about it, why did they start making npcs whisper us since EoD? Revenant Legends are using Say chat, that doesn't hit other players. Did someone tangle the pasta? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the new ones discovered they can abuse players' learned behavior of paying attention to <KWONK> sound and purple text, in order to con them into "engagement". Or at least that's what they kept telling themselves when shipping that anti-feature. This whole expansion is engagement metrics padding, it's so painfully obvious.
