New Statue of Almalexia Disappoints
MidnightDuel
✭✭✭
Players have been wanting an Almalexia statue for a while, but the the new crown "Almalexia, Mother Morrowind" statue fails to deliver. It doesn't fit with the style of existing statues of Vivec or Sotha Sill. It is too cartoonish, and looks like something from World of Warcraft, not ESO. At 4k Crowns, it's a complete pass.
Other recent statue furnishings leave a lot to be desired too.
The above are likewise too cartoonish and don't fit in with the style of ESO. The "harvester" and "hero" statues were originally "free" from Golden Pursuit rewards or they would have been a pass as well. Now they are for sale for Trade bars in the Gold Coast Bazaar. I won't be wasting my Trade Bars on them either.
Please stop trying to make ESO look and play like WoW.

"Cartoonish" lacks realism, both in terms of the figure and material/textures used. It's like a cartoon charactaure of Almalexia in plastic as opposed to the realistic representations of Sotha Sil and Vivec:
Almalexia's statue is like something you'd see in Toon Town, rather than a museum or civic plaza. Her features are exaggerated, including her body markings, which unlike the lights cannot be turned off on the statue.
Until recently, statues in ESO were made in a classical style, emulating natural materials, like marble and stone. Departing from that style loses the look and feel of Elder Scrolls as an IP and puts it closer to the realm of anime. Some may like it, but it's not ESO.
