While I am in favor of this, I can also see how difficult it would be for Zenimax to implement since they would have to add armor to EVERY SINGLE SET they have created thus far. That's a daunting task just for a cosmetic effect on 2 races.

I would MUCH prefer they first give us anatomically correct skeletons! It's really cheap****** there is only a human version (and I have even seen a Kahjiit one in one of the quests so they even have the model hanging around)

I would use it for my argonian! Currently, the way his tail is attached to his pants is hilarious...

Quite frankly, I never understood why Khaj and Argo's would dress.
I'm NOT!!! speaking of armor, which OBVIOUSLY is a necessity in combat, but CLOTHING???
Argo's are basically water creatures, clothing would be just annoying.
As for the poor Khajiit... poor things must be melting with all that fur and clothes on top of that.
Aside, a cat shows off with it's fur design.

It's called a Furry. That's what Khajiit were designed for.

Wouldn't furries want naked cats?

um, bro you really neeed to do a little more research before you comment. because it really depends on the furry, most of them would go to these types of threads https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/96159/should-khajiit-and-argonians-be-able-to-choose-their-skeletal-structures-during-character-creation/p1

anyway, in khajiiti culture it's shameful to show your torso fur this is why they wear clothes. but that isn't to say I'm against player nudity, if anything the ability to strip naked and get a HUGE bounty for each time your saw like that would add to the game. I'm just stating the facts.

Clearly you didn't catch my joke, as the stereotype furries like to look at *naked* humanoid animals, or what they call "anthropomorphic" animals.

Yes, but I really don't think someones sexual preferences is something to joke about it's very offensive. plus I don't think furries are the subject of this tread anyway.

anyway if your going to put armor on your arms, legs, and your head. than why wouldn't you arm your tail? think about it, when your fighting beast folk all you have to do grab and cut there tails off. then their pretty much defenseless as the tail is a part of there bodies balance.

Can we also get customizable tails while we're at it? My Khajiit NEEDS a bobbed tail.

"Anthropomorphic" is the appropriate scientific term.

Especially since the Khajiit live in incredibly Arid and Humid climates with high temperatures that the common fashion would be as little clothing as possible. If the Khajiit have a sense of decency/indecency then they'd wear something similar to the Bosmer top and skirt outfit in the crown store.

That's why my girl doesn't wear pants nor anything heavier than the Khajiit Jerkin for the chest.

Same here. No more armor toggles.

Why on Earth not? How does it hurt you for people to have options? All you have to do is not use them, and you have nothing to complain about. Seriously, are you just that opposed to other people being happy when it doesn't effect you at all?

Both Argonian and Bosmer armor in those pics on the artists site are far better than what we got in game. There was attention to detail put into it. And it shows. I get that its a MMO but the cartoonish and rather lazy motif styles we got for racials is just heartbreaking.

I don't think it's just because "its an MMO".

Those artists are only creating pics of concepts of armor.

We get the quality that we have in ESO because the game is processing infinitely more information than a single still pic.

On the flip side; like many other people, I have played many MMO's over the last 3 decades. the quality of graphics and armor in ESO really does blow away the visuals offered by most other MMO's.

IMO, there's really no argument there.

I disagree. Theres still evidence of both poor and superior artistic work in this game with new motifs all the time. The Mercenary Motif is a shining example of superior work. The Ancient Orc, in my opinion, is poor artistic work. The Mercenarys armor pops and looks as if your character is wearing clothing and armor. The Ancient Orc looks like another skinjob like the Nord Motif. Nothing about that latice work of metal makes any sense. Its just a bunch of criss-crossing gray lines. Had they made the armor pop and look as if the armor was functional and not some skintight wetsuit it have been a very interesting addition to the crafting motifs.

The excuse of processing power is moot when the motifs contradict this very argument.

Look at saharan and arabic cultures, the norm isnt "bare skin", it's full covering. The clothing actually helps insulate and cool the wearer, it doesnt automatically make things hotter just because there's material on your skin.

Besides, khajiit are known for their sense of extravagant, materialistic things - they like riches.

Anthropomorphic is a more broad term, while furry usually just means this.

Those cultures clothing are heavily religious based garb, where it's seen as indecent to not be covered head to toe. Back in '70s Afghanistan when their society was more so liberal people actually wore jeans and tee-shirts. Besides even if you put it in quotations, Khajiit don't have "bare skin", their body fur already acts as an insulating layer. I highly doubt if Canines suddenly had Human intelligence they'd want to start wearing clothes.

Then again I won't disagree with Khajiit being materialistic, and fancy garb is a well known display of wealth and fortune. But for the commoner they couldn't care less.

You can't really be completely safe with the term Furry though since it's become so derogatory as well as broad. When someone says Furry they could either mean a Humanoid Animal, or a lonely twenty something that goes to Pop Culture Conventions in a full body wolf costume.

Anthropomorphic is the proper term for beast races while furry is more towards making them look cutesy. The furry term was degraded later due to other visual content. It sucks that the term is frowned upon due to the negative silliness, but sooner or later it'll die out.

dude wrong again, that's a Anthropomorphic animal NOT a furry. a furry is someone who likes Anthropomorphic animals a lot and in some cases too much. take a look at the top answer here: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=furry

Clothing is not just needed to protect us from cold.
It can used to show the status as well, and it can serve ceremonial functions.
Speaking of climate, I find it much more annoying that light Altmer and Redguard robes are made of skin-tight leather. >.< At least Khajjit light looks reasonable for Elsweyr weather.

Hell, just THINKING of wearing clothes over my fur maes even my hairs sweat sweat? XD

If they were to add it as an extra slot, one option would be to make it a cloak, or sash slot for the non-ura bipeds.
