Finally, it has occurred. The sexy bikini has been introduced to ESO

feast on the tears of the immersion police, my fellow ESOers, for they will be delicious

in other news, it's nice to see the crowding issue with New Life quests has been sorted out, at least on my end. Thanks zosimax!

    you call the Nordic bath towel a sexy bikini?

    1- its not, the default undies are far more revealing, and the graht climbers wear is also great looking

    2- I suppose it crazy to believe some kind of swim wear would exist huh? or is that restricted for real life only?

    I agree. We can measure square inch covered, but that doesn't equal sexy. I'd offer proof but you don't want to see me in a speedo.

    There is nothing immersion-breaking about it.

    At all.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Sexy on women.

    I'm indifferent about it on most men... But my Orc, it looks like some sort of diaper. As chieftain of the Shatul Clan this just seems out of place on him.

    That towel looks more like a dirty old and soiled wet rag than an actual towel. I wouldnt put that on my character if someone paid me.

    Dude is just baiting, no worries. If this were a reddit post I'd flag it as "looking for bite", if you know what I mean.

    Hey, need to get those Shadowfen fishes :P

    I need to get a ton of fishes in all kinds of places but I need to do the event things and to grind up the rest of my alts first, not to mention that I need to ace the last final of my undergrad career in order to keep my GPA on top. :-( What I'm trying to say is: YES, FISH, but also CAN'T NOW.

    It's way too high for me. It covers abs while showing underwear. When I first read about this, I was picturing something that went from the waist down to the knees(ish). What we got instead was a piece of leather that goes from high/mid-abdomen to pelvis. Not very flattering in my opinion.

    Good luck! Did my last final yesterday morning, just in time to run 10 characters through the festival every day (but due to the crashing and constant disconnects, I only ran it four times).

    On the bright side, maybe they will already have fixed the Nordic Bather's Towel on male Khajiit when Men'Do comes across one! An extra one, I hope. One that no Nord was wearing when Men'Do found it, preferably.

    I agree totally, it should stop just above the rope around the waist. Going all the way up to the rib cage with a second rope around it just looks tacky.

    It's probably meant to warm the core more than anything else. After all, it is for people who just jumped into a freezing river!

    It doesn't protect the core, your torso is almost completely exposed. If you want to warm up after a cold bath, wearing a flimsy rag isn't the way to do it. This towel (if it can be called that) exists only to be amusing.

    I'd even go so far as to argue wearing anything wet in the winter after swimming in ice water does not help the warming up part. I like that the quest makes you warm up at the fire *lol.
