    Again... if we're going with "make your own story." I want my elf cowboy with dual one-handed crossbows riding a dwemer cog horse. I could totally make up how that exists in ESO... oh and lets add zepplins and SoulSwords while we're at it.

    SoulSwords are swords that use the power of Soulgems to create a spectral blade...Here's Miaq with a pair of them now!

    ooh. and let's add Dwemer motorized carriages while we're at it!

    Surely the Dwemer figured out rolling vehicles. They had walking machines.

    Just how far does your "imagination" allow you to take when it comes to unjustified additions to ESO?

    And no one can stop you do that, if they ever add these things into the game. As I said, things that doesn't fit in, get ignored. As a RP-er, immersion to me is importance, but I don't force people to think as I do. In their imagination, they could be a Deadric Prince riding a 4 heads dragons each spits out a different element, I don't care. I won't RP with that person for sure, but if they choose to play like that, it's their right.

    How is my suggestion forcing people to think as I do @TheDarkShadow ?

    and my question was serious... Just how far does your "imagination" allow you to take when it comes to unjustified additions to ESO? Is there nothing that you think would be inappropriate for ESO?

    What ESO really needs is an Auction Horse.
    That's right... Horse.

    By forcing a quest of "how you get that mount" on people. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand it as when I buy a mystical mount on the store, I'll have to do a quest to actually "get" that horse. Well, it's fine by me, I can just do it out of character and then make up another story as I'm still doing for my mounts now.

    But that lead to another question: Why you need that quest to "explain" your horse, a quest that force down to you by ZOS, instead of make up your own story? If you NEED that quest to explain your horse, then you just killed your imagination by taking what ZOS give you. If you just do that quest out of character, then it's a waste of time for both ZOS devs and players. So I don't think it's necessary. But if ZOS choose to use their times and employees for that, fine by me.

    I also answered your question twice: Things that can't fit in, get ignored. The only thing I think inappropriate, in a RP standpoint, is someone forcing other people play like they want. That, is powerplay.

    Ack. Sorry @TheDarkShadow. I was thinking this was the other thread asking for a de-mystical mount option. My bad.

    Quests accompanying mounts would be ideal. Buying additional gameplay is always better than buying just cosmetics. I would love it if the fire horse could cross lava and there was a small quest that could be reached only by using this horse. This isn't even necessary though. As I said in my OP:

    The justification can come at a later time and can just be in one zone, one crypt, or in one quest... just please give us a little justification for these mounts and you WILL sell more.

    If there were an area in Wrothgar that had a small herd of icehorses... I'd be content with that. Heck, I'd even be content with something like an imbuing chamber being added to ESO. We don't have to be able to use it, just it's existence would be plenty. like I said the justification can come later. An imbuing stable in one town... good enough.

    I guess I'm just not able to "ignore" things like you are.
