Interesting idea! We'll see what we can do.

Has there been any development on this @ZOS_GinaBruno ? What was the response from the dev team regarding a contest such as this?

Glaiceana

I'd love this to be an official competition! I'd have loads of fun creating concepts for creatures etc!

@ZOS_GinaBruno You just made me super, super excited. Ppppllllleeeeaaaasssseeee push for something like this! You'd be able to see what the players would like to see in motofs and outfits!

I want this too. I'm no artist, but there are many. many, talented people here. I can't think of any downside to doing this.

I'd love to see a game one day where you could design your own characters, pets, armour and weapon styles using say Blender or mara, perhaps based on models provided.

Perhaps even go as far to create your own animations too, it could become quite a social thing where guildies could work together on projects within a specified criteria.

The resulting creations could then be submitted for approval.

Of course, I don't want to take anything away from the actual great work in-game designers do, but I think it would be a great way to perhaps spot new talent and create even more immersion.

Don't get too excited @Taisynn. That response was from over 6 months ago. There hasn't been any mention of it since.

Yea, I'm surprised more programs haven't taken inspiration from them. Of course, since Second Life is kind of the 4Chan of MMOs other devs might be taking inspiration by avoiding the practice like the plague.

Yeah I think the creations have to be kept within parameters such as game lore otherwise things would get pretty out of hand, I'm still getting my head around the fact it was 10 years ago and it was the next big thing, geez I'm feeling old

I dont see this happening. There'd be a lot of legal hoop jumping to get this done. Star Trek Online did something similar with their 'Build the next Enterprise' competition. It turned out to be a legal pain to get the rights to the image and then there were a few other ships that werent canon but generally well regarded by the community that they eventually obtained. And that just soured things for them.

I can see ZOS Legal grinding their teeth at the thought of having to do this.

How does Koei Tecmo do it with DOA5 do it @Korah_Eaglecry ?

They did the same for 2015 and are doing it this year too.
