New Werewolf skins

nightwalkerrobin_ESO
In my opinion, the new skins for the werewolves are terrible. Go back to the pre Update 5 skins, except make the Berserker the black skin. I think the original white skin (Packleader) could use some work. Instead of white, how about the silver/gray colors they already have for some the wolves ingame? I think they would look better.

    Personnaly I couldn't stand that ugly face, its ridiculous demonic eyes, and that stupid beard on my older WW skin. I think the new one looks a lot more feral and the texture is actualy a lot better. My only complain would be about its feet, the feet are way to small for the rest of the WW proportions and they actualy lack upper digits, which makes it look so strange...
  • nightwalkerrobin_ESO
    I have to differ with you, but then we are all entitled to our opinion. it would have been nice if they had told us they were going to change the skins. I know they were on the PTS, and I did comment on them in the PTS forum. I thought it was just something that was off on the PTS. But now we know. Whatever is "off" on the PTS will be posted live. Working as intended...

    I do feel you will be in luck as I seriously doubt they will change them back.

    What is it you personnaly don't like about them?
  • nightwalkerrobin_ESO
    I just feel the original skins looked more like fur, well as much as you can have fur with the graphics engine. The new skins look more like plaster than fur to me. Maybe it is just the way my graphics card is rendering it.

    For some odd reason I can't find a single picture of the new WW model, if you guys find one can you make a URL link bellow? Thanks! :smile:

    I actually prefer the facial structure of the new werewolf over the old one; the old snout and forehead was just... odd. But I'd like to see the new one just a little furrier. And of course, a black-furred berserker would be great.

    Also, no 'female' models. Please. For one, the gender difference in wolves isn't noticeable. I dunno what'd indicate 'female' WW. ...I'd be fine with a somewhat sleeker model but if you mean bumps on the chest, no no no no no no no no no.

    Nonononononono.

    No.
    Noooo.
    Nope.

    I don't currently play a werewolf but likely will eventually. But I've always been puzzled by the sex change that takes place on transformation. Since the body remains humanoid I'd think there would be some differences between males and females, even if not especially overt like large breasts. Indeed I would certainly HOPE they wouldn't do THAT! LOL

    Other than that, I'm with others here who prefer the changes to the head but also preferred the furrier/shaggier look of the original.

    There is no sex change happening. It's a sex removal. Hircine's curse transforms you into a sexless daedric abomination, not an actual wolf. It would make absolutely no sense for this form to be shaped differently based on the "human" form's sex. The beast form only ever has one purpose - battle. Anything not related to that has no place on the body.

    Says who? Can you show me in the lore that says we become Daedric abominations?

    Definitely agree that the models need to be improved, and that there need to be feminine variants.

    I also think they need to add some way of choosing whether you're a werewolf, werebear, or weretiger/lion. Even a simple totem for each one that you can activate would be great. I hate so much that my khajiit turn into wolves =/

    Don't forget the Were-crocodile, or the Were-vulture. And did I mention the Were-shark before?

    I always think of my Khajiit as having an identity crisis when her changes form.

    It would be nice if they made appropriate were forms for the Khajiit, and Argonians.

    Yeah, Khajiit should be some sort of WereSabrecat, and Argonians should be WereClannfears.

    Some form seemingly more primitive form for the Werecat, and yes do Werecrocodile for the Argonians.

    I'd prefer Weregators, because crocs just seem to have too much snout.

    I imagine a were-morphed argonian would look something like a daedroth (how awesome would that be?).

    For my khajiit, what I'm really looking for is for werewolf to be a sort of 'hulk smash' change. He doesnt turn into a wolf, he gets bigger, more muscly, grows bigger claws and sabre-tooth like fangs, and gets an overall beastlier and more powerful look.

    Yes on the Khajiit. This is exactly what I feel they should transform into.

    And yes, I agree that the Argonians might look something like the Daedroth, but I think they could change a few things to make the difference very visible. Maybe have the head similar to the guar, but not a guar head. Shorter and wider snout.

    If (and it is a very big IF) they were to entertain these ideas, they really need to ask for some inputs on graphics or they come up with some and let US (the were community) give input on and vote on it. Also adding some possible color modification to our were forms would help out greatly.

    Still a lot of work to do, I hardly transform anymore.

    Its not fun because of the short time period and its frustrating trying to figure out the best combination/sequence of combat abilities because of the rush to kill and stay in form.

    The fur on the new model makes Werewolves look like they have a serious case of mange. Big YES PLEASE to finally making the Berserker have black fur.

    I like being a werewolf, but the new textures look bad. The heads look great, and the new facial features look good. But the fur just has terrible texturing. I think it'd be better if zenimax had the old fur with the new head. Or just make better fur.
