Like when the shipwright tells you "Back to Pludering" You see it in a chat bubble over his head, but not in local chat!

I believe that might have actually been intentional, to clean up the chat some.

And not only that, but even the emotes you CAN do just show you doing the action, and it doesn't give the "description" in the chat! For instance, /coin makes you flip a coin, but it no longer says "Jason flips a coin." The emotes were one of my favorite parts of the game, and I want them back, NOW! I filed a bug report about this, even though I have a feeling this is no bug.......

That however, is probably NOT supposed to have happened, and can be blamed on disney for releasing this update well before they knew it was ready.
