Please, please… for the love of Anor, make aiming at someone, or being aimed at by someone watch them automatically.
Having to deliberately 'watch' targets or individuals taking an overtly hostile action that interferes with moving and other things is strange, and not doing so will actually eat up relevant combat messages.
An example:
aim at REDACTED
You spot REDACTED's intentions to do something and make your move...
(combat you attack) ...
The constant din of traffic and the chattering throng of pedestrians filtering past make it hard to hear much outside your immediate surroundings.
You move to intercept REDACTED, preventing their escape.
watch all
You try eavesdropping on as many people as possible.
REDACTED makes their move and runs for it...
You move to intercept REDACTED, preventing their escape.
