Observe verb sounds - robertGN - 08-29-2015

Currently, when you observe someone, you just magically go deaf usually. Maybe make it so you can hear sounds from the perspective of the thing/person you are observing?

The 'deafness' is because you still get sounds from the perspective of where your ghost was before you started observing.

That's what I assumed, but I didn't have time to test it to be sure. It'd still be cool to hear from whatever you are observing though.

I think I was right the first time. I just tested it by flying over a loud engine as a ghost, and then obseving a random creature (A cyborg) off the observation list. I started getting no sound after starting to observe.
