Edit:What I meant by this "inspect mode" is the ability to zoom in and out of objects and rotate them, just like in skyrim and fallout 4.

Inspect items you obtained, like gear, food and so on.That would add immersion, besides icons for items and gears are really small...2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Ah I know exactly why this is here.
People have been wanting to "Inspect" other players forever now, especially when wanting to do group content. They want to pry and check our gear to see if we have BiS stuff or not, and if we don't, it's a swift kick.
Not to mention at the end of Dungeons if one person asks "You have this or this?" And the second person says no, or doesnt say anything. Do a quick inspect, find out they're lying. Suddenly hate whispers start rolling.CP2,000 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan

Nevermind then. Only reason I made that assumption was due to it being what people usually meant by "Inspect" in the past. But I understand what you really meant now.CP2,000 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan

The ability to inspect Items you have obtained through out your adventures, zooming in ans out and rotating them.0 -
idk✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Are you talking about being able to see what drops someone got or what they have equipped?
For being able to see what they have equipped I would say no for ESO. If it was not for the poor attitude of players getting grouped in dungeons with lower CP and other similar qq we see in these forums I would tend to agree.
It would merely be used by that type of player to discriminate against players further.Edited by idk on June 12, 2017 12:09AM1 -

I know what you mean.
ESO is the worst game to look up skirts, the armor and stuff in ESO, its like ancient times, you know what they wear in ancient times? bunch of cruddy rags, thats what armor style ESO likes to make.
They never make nice, modern, appealing outfits. This game, I honestly dont have any armor types I'm very anxious to get, because they all cruddy rags to me.0 -

You say "every single rpg made by bethesda" but then list only two, which coincidentally are the only two that have this feature.
Anyway, this would require making 3D art for every inventory item in the game, the vast majority of which do not have any. It would be an incredibly expensive undertaking that would provide little benefit, so I'm not chomping at the bit for this.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭No Thank You
i hope this never happens, if you want to see what i have on or what foods i'm using, or anything about the character i am renting and what i have done in eso then just ask.
i might show you if i feel like it, but if i don't feel like it then it's private. and i hope it stays that way.
we are not here for your inspection and amusement, it is set to private for a reason. please respect that it is private.
this is not new, and has been asked before and is always met with dislike and overwhelming down vote.
people don't like this and i'm very glad people don't like it.
here's 2 links to prove it is not wanted:

https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/comment/1197428#Comment_1197428
there are many more if you search them, including votes for it, and as always it is voted "No" by almost everyone.

I love the fact that you spent so much effort on that comment, op didnt even want that either and its already been explained that he wanted a inspection of item that we pick up to see how they looked like, like in skyrim. So read the thread first please. Also op, that would be nice to have.6 -

✭✭✭✭It's a novel feature that's fairly straightforward to code.- Item goes front and center
- Moving the mouse rotates the item.
- Mouse wheel zooms in and out.
The problem is, it provides little usable function (No VR coming anytime soon to ESO) and it would require higher resolution textures than they currently make use of. (Have you seen the apple baskets lately?)Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

✭✭✭It already has this feature in a way.
Go to a crafting table, look at housing recipes, and there is a option to "Preview" which you can spin and rotate the object.
But as far as OP's idea, it would probably be a coding nightmare and what kind of strain on LUA memory it would cause. IDK??
Also the 2 examples are the only ones out of 10 TES games that had this feature.Damn that title had me triggered...
It would be nice, especially with how housing items work.
There is a add-on that allows you to do this with furnishing recipes and items in guild store and such.. Edited by wenchmore420b14_ESO on June 12, 2017 12:58PMDrakon Koryn~Oryndill, Rogue~Mage,- CP ~Doesn't matter any more

If we can preview housing items why not preview any other item in the world @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom0 -

you are More then welcome and thank you for the compliment.
i just wanted to point out that type of request was not what it apiered to be in this thread because of the title, and that type of request is not what people want.
i myself would hate to have my personal items inspected. so i spoke about it and how much it is disliked by not just myself but others as well.
please try to remember that people don't want their items inspected and armor and foods and stuff like what looked like was being asked for.
it simply is not requested by the majority.

✭✭✭✭✭I dont know... It would be cool, sure (especially for stolen items), but I'm not sure if making loads of 3d models just for the sake of fanciness would be worth it. I'd prefer to see updated models for vanilla content (armor models and textures, locations etc).
That being said, I'd like to see armor previews. After all, they already have mannequin models that are used in crown store previews.Dro-m'Athra Destroyer | Divayth Fyr's Coadjutor | Voice of Reason
