Character level shown next to name

Could you please put the players levels next to their names, for streaming. Every time I watch a streamer, I wonder what level they are and have to try and pause the screen so try and see when they open inventory. Its so hard to tell what level they are and this game is going to be heavily streamed, obviously, so it makes a lot of sense to let the viewers see what level the character playing is from the screen. Thanks!

    Seconding this, as a streamer, I don't want to have to keep answering that question.

    In addition to this awesome idea, I'd also like to see a tiny icon that displays their primary archetype.

    And, in Beta: A double tiny icon for their primary and secondary ... to see what unique class combination the player has chosen.

    As a non-streamer, I consider this a waste of screen real estate. I know what level I am.

    Is there anything you can’t argue?

    That is an inherently odd question.

    There's a level indicator at the bottom of the screen, to the left of the exp bar. It's on screen at all times.

    Indeed.

    However, my take on what is being asked is for a level indicator large enough to be clearly readable when watching a low resolution stream.

    This is why I don't consider it worth the screen real estate - it would need to be fairly large to accomplish what is being asked for here - imo the streamer should just sort something out in an overlay if they are that concerned.

    Would rather see what node their citizen off next to name for other players :p

    Not if it sits next to the class icon on your life bar.

    Since the level is already shown on the screen, yes, it is a waste of screen real estate. Why show it twice on screen?

    It shows the level prior and next level on the XP bar. If your audience can't do the basic calculations required to figure out what level you are...

    Also they should remove level indicators from other players nameplates out of group. It creates more tension when trying to figure out if you want to start a fight with someone.
