I haven't seen a toilet in game yet and i'm beginning to question the ability to stay immersed. I know i can find a tree or even a secluded cave, but i'm looking for both comfort and seclusion.

We need a new skill line like carpentry so i can build an outhouse or at least some rare and purple toilet paper drops for those late nights.

    My guess, BS = nails WW=planks Clothier=rugs etc. might need to bring in jewel crafting for toilets.

    Hate to break it to you but even "outhouses" are a fairly modern idea, historically speaking.

    Chamber pots is more in line at this sort of tech level... and that's if you are in a well-to-do "civilized" place.

    Trees, rivers, small holes in the ground, that's pretty much your medieval dumping grounds for the average person.

    I have to admit I have been thinking about this too. It is like in films. You see the character running around but he/she never needs the loo.
    In general I have never seen a toilet in an elder scrolls game, or a shower or any kind of hygiene. Not even a sink!

    There are kitchens and everything else implemented but none of the houses I have seen in eso have bathrooms.

    We definitely need a bathroom patch in a future update to allow further immersion or the Roleplayers will be upset. ;)

    Not one constructive thought. Leave/unsub or give a suggestion for improvement. ZoS has listened and changed via community input more than any MMO I have ever played (and this list is a decade long). In other words, this post is completely worthless and pointless, except to make an attempt at wit, which failed.

    I have but he wasn't in very good shape, poor thing. Still I suppose it's better to live out your life with corprus than to disappear with all the other Dwemer to become the skin of the Numidium.

    Let's just make ESO TSO(the sims online) and all the RPers can be happy :p I do get the sentiment, but there's a lot of biological functions we would need to cover first. If you were inclined you could go 1-v12 and never eat or use /eat, thus going months or years without food to turn into waste for the toilets XD.

    Alternatively, "Nirnians" could have highly developed systems that don't make waste but turn everything into energy. Maybe they pee from their fingers. Argonians have breast, not everything works as it does in our world :p haha
    And so did many brave men, women, and beast fall to the end of Beta, never to be heard from again. All that is left, is whispers of the adventures they had.

    No offense but I don't think there's a large demographic for a pooping simulator.

    ...could be wrong... there is a wildly successful, deliberately buggy, Goat simulator. Perhaps I'm just out of touch with today's market demographic.

    Will you take the first step OP, in telling me what kind of "Potty System" for all characters and "Monthly Period" system (with Tampon Vendors) for females?

    Will you propose the mechanics for it?

    Simple. 3 hour timer after digesting any food or drink triggers a cool-down requiring the character relieves them self or a penalty is attributed for either being bloated (reduction in magicka) or extreme flatulence (reduction in health). This is obviously the cause for the unbalanced stamina problems.

    There's multiple mentions of "privy's" from the NPC's. So they must at least put space aside for such things, which is why I never loot tomatoes from a basket behind a screen.

    On a serious note though, as odd as it may be, toilet facilities I think actually do help with immersion. Mass Effect put washrooms in the night clubs and spaceships, and while you don't do anything in them, it's something you'd definitely notice if they weren't there.
