Hi,

Sorry if this isn’t the right place to ask. But I was just wondering, those people that were asked to change their character names due to being inappropriate, once you’ve changed your character name, does it also change your name under personal story menu?

Basically, you press ‘H’, then I think it’s the 3rd on the left(looks like a star symbol). The very first part of your story is “My name is (your name)”. Can you confirm that the name change also changed the name here. Thanks!!

The name change is required for the benefit of other players. If you see the old name on your interface, that’s no big deal. As long as the name is changed in the game, it’s all good.

As a player, I ask myself: What’s more important? New content? Fixed bugs? Or a remedy that applies to 0.00001% of the player base, and specifically those who breach the UA?

As a player, I vote for letting our devs work on more constructive things. Sure it’d be nice if the name displayed in its new form everywhere, and maybe it will someday. But in the short term, I think it’s just fine as it is, because what matters—what someone else sees—is corrected to be within the UA and Naming Policy guidelines.
