Emotes! (Yes, really.)

How about a emote hot bar too?

/hug
/kiss in some form that's not just blowing a kiss

I'd love an emote that would let us sit on existing furniture.

That's basically not true.

@MornaBaine‌, what, are we supposed to be housecats now?

My Khajiit does not purr.

Ever.

Oooh. No. Nonono. I'm still traumatized from seein' my poor (male) char doing /danceimperial. *shudder*

@YulianMcElroy‌, wait until you see a mail orc do the whole "Hula" dance in full armor.

The could make macros with keybinds. Someone should make an add on that does that sort of thing...

Yeah I'm looking forward to them figuring out how to use furniture as well. it always baffled me when MMOs have the stuff all over but all it actually does is get in peoples' way because you can't actually use it. WHY Zenimax???? LOL

You could always /bow in front of a table to look like you're banging your head in frustration.

Can't see class-specific emotes because there are no real classes in the traditional MMO sense.

A nightblade emote that pulls out a pair of daggers and spins them deftly wouldn't really work for a NB tank or healer.

Other than that, I like the idea of adding more emotes.

/drumredguard The Red Guard would produce a doumbek and play Middle Eastern riffs.

Doom atek tek atek tek Tekka doom tekka doom tekka tek !

Glad someone else knows there can be more to banging a drum than just one crappy beat. I was pretty disappointed they didn't have more drum beats in the game. That definitely needs some love.

I also wish they would create a way to sync your group when you all play.

Well, you must be one depressed Khajiit cause they do purr, a NPC even mentions purring.

I'd love to see anything that expands on the music options we have available. And I'd REALLY love to get some cultural music. Middle Eastern music seems a natural fit for Red Guards. What kinds of music do you think suit the other races as cultural music and what sorts of instruments should they play?

Dunmer
/Dunmerdisgust - the Dunmer calls those infront a s'wit and other less-than-desirable-names
/brandslave - the Dunmer reveals a hot iron brander to brand a slave [if guild heraldry enabled, brands guild symbol temporarily onto player or npc, this is laughed at by npc's in Kragenmoor at their pathetic cat-man slaves]

Dragon Knight
/wingstretch - the Dragonknight extends and protrudes their wings briefly, having a stretch [think that thing from Jeepers Creepers]

Vampire
/eatvampire - the vampire produces a light-snack, revealing a heart and having a casual bite to eat

Werewolf
/monstermash - the werewolf does a dance, worthy of Hircine!

LOL Some of those are pretty fantastic! However, I don't think we can have emotes with speaking. Reminds me of the jokes the characters in WoW used to tell when I played that a really long time ago. The Blood Elf ones were pretty funny!

They've added emotes several times so far with there being dozens upon dozens in-game now... I'd rather see further work go into fixing other Quality of Life aspects of the game such as the near-featureless UI and lacking camera options for third-person, as well as gameplay problems such as rewards system/progression, design work for class balance, etc., and animators spend their time working on newer content instead such as the Imperial City.

Just my two cents

One of my favorites...would be even better if there was more juggling.

It's more of a /produceflame followed by /owthatshot, /switchhands.

I'm never sure why people feel the need to come into a thread talking about stuff people might like just to trash it and list off all the things THEY think are "more important" as if, because there are more important things, no one should dare speak of anything else. Why is that? Even when you say clearly in your OP that this isn't anything anyone is demanding NOW and that no one expects to see it all implemented at once but rather as a place to share fun ideas that may be added here and there as the game matures... STILL someone has to make sure we all know this isn't as important as X, Y, and Z.

Okay Attorney...duly noted. *insert eyeroll here*

The more the better. People should use more of them, I think.

If they could link some emotes at some areas with the future justice system, this could be great for RP. Here's some examples:

/bucketsplash at a guard triggers hostile action; guards will try to arrest you. Players may also be able to get you. Options: fight and/or flee, surrender and go to jail or try bribery/intimidation/persuasion. Arrested? Escape jail or pay your time. Player gets some sort of bonus or achievment as reward.

Placing your toon at certain sites like over a temple's Aedric altar or throne room and typing /drink3 and /dancedrunk flags you as enemy for guards as well for players who felt offended. Survive and gain some bonus from your beloved Daedric Prince.

Sure, abuses may happen, like a VR14 doing one of these at a starter island and wiping away low-level toons and NPCs...
