We're Freeing up Old Character Names

Isn't it better to make, like in diablo 3 ? where everyone can pick names they want, even if it exists already, since the account name is unique . (this way everyone happy - everyone get the names they want. )
The statement is still unclear to me. Perhaps grammar is failing me. Chris' post seems to be about logging into a character, not logging into an account.


I've logged into the one and only character name I care about just to be safe.

If my interpretation is correct, announcing this the day before it happens is damn harsh. So hopefully I've got it wrong.


There has to be a low point where some people stop complaining because it's just not worth it, and I have yet to see it. - Squeakypaw, 2013

Yeah, and when a friend asks my for my name I gotta tell it to him like it's a phone number.
I already know 3 names that I need to reserve when servers go online

I agree with this. Have it display in chat like it does in Star Trek Online

Character_Name@teacherpeter or something like that, but people will know they can just contact you anytime by your username and not your character name.
Can't we use single name for entire account? Add short description to every character just like in Friend List so other players could know what build or main skill this one uses...

Sooner or later you'll face the problem with mini sentences cause most of names will be taken (by mules of course. lol). And in next update instead of content you'll have to add options to report names like "iloveugggforallthelags".

How about download? Running any torrent with updated content.ggpk?
Please allow us to have one space in the middle of the name to give us first and last names. #DownWithTheMasterraceRogueExiles
I hope my favourite name "asdfmule" will get freed as well.
