Correction: it was "What's up in Winterhold?"

Susan was talking about what ifs when she mentioned Winterhold.

it could mean it is in development (i hope so), but could also mean they just used it as an example of someplace we might get in the future,
in which case they could have also said Whiterun, Torval, or Blacklight.

edited to add:
the Dawn and Dusk Tamriel Tome has
- a wolf named Winterhold Emperyan Wolf.
- Dwemer armor for Kireth and Raynor Vanos, Skyrim has Dwemer ruins
- Dwemer spider mount and Dwemer Theodolite pet

thank you so much!
2026 is very exciting to me♥

i especially love that we will be able to Hide all Outfit pieces.

Ohhhhh....I completely missed that. That is going to open up some outfit doors without sacrificing stats.

Guys. I HAVE, to be suspicious though.

This just feels like a wrap up. They announce ALL of these QoL changes the community had been asking for years for. Now they tell us it's all coming at the same time, after having ceased the Chapter model. It's like others have claimed, this feels like the game is entering maintenance.

This would make it much clearer:

I'm not happy with the upcoming changes, but I'm over them. Just like I refused to buy Crown Crates, I have decided I will also not buy any Battle Passes.

ZOS is being greedy IMO and I'm not going to support that. I would have continued to sub, but I'm not subbing and buying battle passes to replay fundamentally the same old content I've already played way too many times.

What will likely determine my continued interest in ESO will be Dragonknight refresh on PTS. I expect them to butcher what has become my favorite class.

It's fine though. All good things must come to an end and for ESO that was when they announced the 2025 content pass. It's been downhill since. I'm glad I returned when I did to experience the last couple of years of ESO in its prime.

I was just thinking about this today, actually. Who knew that putting a wall up, rather effectively blocking the roads to your new content might keep people from playing it.

Please @ZOS_Kevin can you at least give a date for the come back of the french voiceover, the "as soon as possible" was already said in august and sound kinda like a lie. French community deserve a real answer!

If someone wanted to harass you not wearing any clothes they can already do so now, by taking off their armor.

so... what's to stop them from doing just what that person did and just un-equipping them?

Yes, I know. But as @spartaxoxo said, that does take away part of an armor bonus. So you have to do / undo it specifically for harassment purposes.

But Hide Legs will make it much easier, specifically, to harass. You can just use it by default.

I would have asked that they change the default underwear years ago, but there is a real Puritan feel to that which I really dislike. I'm not overly modest, nor fond of laws regarding it. I'm fine with folks running around with very little clothing.

But this, specifically, will become a problem. And the "solution," reporting the harasser, is again put on the person being harassed.

Harassment isn't an annoyance. It's harassment, and very disturbing. I didn't play for days after that original IC harassment.

So you think people who want to sexually harass think to themselves, "I'd hate to have to click once to remove my pants. I guess I won't harass today."

Or according to Spart - "I wan't going to harass anyone today, but now that I can remove my pants at the costume station rather than remove my armor, I think I will!"

This is just absurd logic to me.

The people who harass have personality problems that go beyond these options, and if they are inclined to do so will and need to be reported.

I wasnt able to catch the stream and didn't see anything in the article. Is this battle pass going to be in addition to ESO plus?

I could rationalize a once a year purchase on top of ESO plus when it brought so much content and access. But Im not looking to pay extra every 3 months unless the full year is equal to or less what it would cost for a Chapter.

It's every 3 months but it's also mostly cosmetics as new content will be largely free. Also the base tier is going to be free. So you can pick and choose which ones you'd like.

Given they're making so much content free now, I can live with the battle pass system.

I don't do hope. They either deliver and I'll consider playing again, or they won't and I'll spend my time and money somewhere else.

Finally we'll see it in the next few weeks, when the feedback for the new update will flood the pts forum .

I can say I will not reinstall PTS for this update. I mean, what for? To test that the horse update includes 3 points a day instead of 1 now?

The Night Market is the only actual content (changing daily endevours and golden pursuits to that new thing, or changing event tickets to event bars is no new content for me), and that's not enough for me to bother with cluttering my disc with 100+ GB.
