What is really nice about this, is that it will be possible to click on our NPCs after the next update. So all you lazy folk, and we all know who we are! Will no longer have to type "trade" or "handel" constantly. This is a good progression.

Does this mean that if i double click on an NPC, they won't say "DON'T TOUCH ME" anymore?

It will be so nice not to see "don't touch me" when I forget and click!

But we could add options like "Touch them!", so there is always the option to bring that back. :)

I'm sure that wasn't touched. The noise spam is still there for those selling hundreds of things at a time.

Well, I see the General use for Players, but yet, I DONT like that. Why?

Most players say just the keywords, that is right, but some players really even rp with the npc's. The creates atmosphere! Another reason is, that it would take some charm off illa.

The old way with talking to NPCs will be remain just like it is, completely unmodified. So, you won't have to use these menus if you do not like them. The damage to atmosphere by characters saying "buy", "quest", "done", only, is from my point of view much more severe than any drawback I can imagine.

I like it. It's much more simple and user friendly, and it's less frustration for new players.

I mentioned the game to somebody in one of my classes, and naturally he decided to try playing right away. Once he made a character, he immediately skipped the tutorial, went to the first NPC he saw, clicked on her, and got REALLY confused about why it was "impossible" to talk to her. He was also really confused by the "Don't touch me!" reaction.
