First Person Mount Riding?

Something I found interesting is in a old game like Oblivion, we had both third and first person riding, but then Skyrim and ESO don't even give you the option.

So my question is, would you like 1st person riding? And a sub-question, perhaps 1st person WW form as well?

    Don't see a reason not to have the option for both, people love having options! :)

    There is actually an addon for 1st person horse riding, which actually works. There's an old one for werewolf form, which is discontinued so possibly doesn't work anymore.

    Personally, I like to see my character/mount, and my wolf form. But again, no reason for the option to not exist.

    I have to say that the weirdness of First Person horse riding in Oblivion is probably why we don't have it in this game.

    Yea, as silly as that video is above, is just about how silly the First Person horse riding was in Oblivion. And, this is coming from someone who played all previous TES games in First Person exclusively. Moving around with a horse head sticking out of my lap was just too much.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    1st person mount riding seems like it could already be in the game. Get on your mount and back up to a wall to force the camera into 1st person and you’ll see it. Seems like all they need to do is remove the automatic shift to 3rd person when mounting, imo.

    For PVP I use third person because first person would put me at a huge disadvantage, but switching to first person for PVE is a lot more fun, breaks up the monotony and makes the game a lot more interesting.

    You can already do it on PC since forever, though I will warn you that it is a bit clunky.

    I'm a derp and pressed the wrong one, I meant to select yes to both. It's always good to have the option to do it, in fact i've been wanting first person horse riding for quite a while now
