Pre-order dynamic theme for Morrowind on PS4?

I have yet to see what it actually looks like, does anyone have it who could share a screenshot?

I dont have a screenshot, but it's basically the cover art on the box with dynamic smoke over the top.

Is it only from pre order?

Yeah it's pre-order only.

Interesting... Any icon/sound effect changes? And does it feature an ESO logo, or is it just the cover art sans any writing?

AdamBourke

The icons have changed - and are hard to see to be honest.

I'll try to get a screenshot or video when i get home - if no one posts one first

Awesome, thank you. I'm always on the lookout for good themes, so this might compel me to preorder. That being said, with the ability to set custom theme/backgrounds coming soon in the next firmware update, it may end up not being worth it.

Apparently you can't take videos of the home page, for some reason. But here are some screenshots. You can see in the first image that the icons such as library are not easily visible.

If you open the images in separate tabs and lfick between them, you can see the bits that are dynamic - the smoke moves, and the lava glows, You can see bits of the rock glowing just right of the morrowind symbol in one picture, but isnt in the other.

There is some music - I dont think it's the music from the trailer but i might be wrong - it has a similar feel to it, but has some choral parts as well as the orchestral layer.

I would wait until the next update if this is the main reason you are waiting. But you do get a couple of things for preordering, so might be worth it anyway? It does require immediate payment though. Personally i prefer that, but I can see why it would put some people off.

Thanks for the screenies! It's disappointing that they didn't get rid of the logo... I haaaate text/logos on PS4 themes, as it makes reading other text on the screen a pain in the butt. I'm still going to preorder, but not right away. The lack of access to nice preorder goodies prior to the actual expansion release is a bummer. In other MMOs I played, pre-ordering immediately granted access to pre-order cosmetics, mounts, pets, etc. I still want all of that stuff with Morrowind, but I don't feel the need to buy it ASAP. If the theme had been worth it, I may have considered doing the early preorder thing, but it's just "okay" at best.
