Don’t waste your time looking back. You’re not going that way.

    Maybe they chopped it off!

    But seriously, horse design is something important to me as a person that rides them and when I see their animation/anatomy not taken care of correctly it turns me off. It's the simple things :D.

    Games I've seen that have done horses right: Archeage and Black Desert.

    Males were castrated and females were sewn up because that is very inappropriate for this game.

    I'm sorry? No, the forelock is apart of the mane. This is a Fjord horse. See that long part of their mane falling between their ears? That's the forelock. Nothing inappropriate about it.

    The missing forelock does not bother me at all, but mounting and dismounting on the right hand (wrong) side has bugged me since beta. :/

    I don't own a horse on ESO yet so I didn't know. :o That's interesting, I wonder why.

    Methinks riders of Tamriel horses have other issues to deal with...

    Lived with horses my whole life, if I want realistic I will go into my back yard. None of this is really a problem. Getting on a horse from the 'wrong' side is a stupid statement. Pseudo-elitest drivel. I mount right because of a knee injury. some trail riders make sure a horse is comfortable with mounting both sides for cases of narrow trails. Only time side really matters is side-sadle and poorly trained horses.

    I own a horse . Use to have two but one passed away . There's nothing wrong with wanting better looking mounts , I get that . Maybe in the future we will see better designs . Maybe there was a clipping issue with the armors from stamina upgrades . Who knows .

    I didn't even know there was a "right" side, though I'm not a 'professional' rider by any means. I just enjoy their company more than anything :).

    Right way is just a matter or what you are taught me how horses are normally trained. it isn't really a 'right' way that will cause problems otherwise.

    I'm sorry for your loss! Hugs! But great idea! I'm glad you pointed that out, that makes sense. :)
