Regarding the Map and possible QOL feature?

Is there a way to have the map show only owned Content? If not would it be worth it to have a selection in options to only show owned content in the map guide thingy? There is so much and with doing map unlocks and quests would be nice to cross reference what is owned and what is not. But I suppose this would seem mostly best for the non subscribers lol just an idea though, if it’s already implemented could anyone let me know how it functions thanks!!

    I doubt that would happen. What better way to advertise to someone about the extra content they could get than to make it visible every time you open the map?

    It's a real pain when you cant even click on a cities wayshrine because theres so much clutter.

    Theres already plenty of in game advertising, they do not need to use the map for it too. And a lot of the clutter is base game content.

    We need toggles at the Tamriel view for...
    -turn off all dungeons
    -turn off all complete dungeons
    -turn off all houses
    -turn off unowned houses

    Most of the annoying dungeons and houses that overlap the important city wayshrines aren't for dlcs- they're base game stuff li,e the Wayrest Sewers dungeon and Gardener House.

    Zenimax likely see they have a vested interest in having us see everything to entice us to sub or buy the DLC.

    at least on PC, there should be multiple addons that allow customizing which map pins appear on the map

    im sure my map is way more cluttered because i add even more pins on the map lol

    The entire map of Tamriel in general needs a complete overall anyway considering that it’s not entirely accurate regarding several regions (The holds of Winterhold and The Pale north of Windhelm in Skyrim, Blacklight and the entire left arm of Morrowind, Central Elsweyr/ Tenmar Forest etc..)

    I agree with your point of ‘too much clutter’ though, mostly when you’re looking at the entirety of Tamriel and not zoomed into a specific zone. The option to toggle the individual types of map icons would be a refreshing, personalized touch for every player. I would almost even prefer no icons at all from the ‘world view’ of the map and just have a detailed topographical map of Tamriel instead. One could then zoom into the specific zone you want to go to in order to see your wayshrines, house icons, dungeons etc… here’s hoping there’s at least some improvements to the map sometime soon!

    I just would like to see content I have so I can complete and then figure out what content to BUY next Lol. In general I don’t mind the map but being able to see what i own outright to what I do not would be extremely helpful at least to me.

    I don't get what you mean by "owned content".... Do you mean DLCs you've bought?

    Yes for the non subscriber types due to technicality’s it would be nice to have the option to see only the expansion and content bought out of the store on the map Only. That way I can get through the content I own before buying another DLC or expansion. The game plays like a very large story and is extremely immersive with that it’s like buying books you read the books and cover what you own before you buy the next book. That is how I see it at least. And yea I also have been to places where I see housing I don’t own that is pretty annoying as well on the map. Yeah it’s nice to know it’s there but if it is the ones I cannot buy because I missed the event or it’s not in the store then why is it showing up on the map Lol
