There really isn't any reason you cannot do this.Stop saying you are thinking about it,and to be quite honest there shouldn't be anything to think about on this one.This seems like one of the easiest things you could add into the game.Plus it seems that you already know how to do it.At least from what others said they saw on ZOS's test servers.

    Clearly OP has not been around ESO very much of they would understand nothing is easy for Zos. I also do not recall a PTS patch offering us the ability to hide shoulders.

    Wasn't on the pts.Was on ZoS's test servers where they can tweak things.Besides all they have would have to do would be something like any other style available.Except with this one just make it invisible.

    More so reasoning why it is one of the easier things they could add.In fact they could put it in instead of a nerf.

    Zos has stated they are considering going beyond just hiding shoulders. Hopefully they do not do hide all armor as that was horrible in another game.

    If you tune into the Gina and Jessica hour, aka ESO Live, right now you might get an update.

    Their refusal to do it is one of ZoS' stupidest decisions ever. They want motifs to be a big part of the game, yet a large fraction of players find the armor ugly, and a large fraction of the large fraction do so specifically because of the shoulders.

    I have 15 characters, and about 45 motifs learned in their entirety. ONE of my characters goes around in an outfit; the other 14 wear costumes. Part of the reason is the cumbersomeness of the outfit system (you can't see how an outfit looks in varied lighting until you've made and paid for it), but a large part is the hideousness of shoulders.

    Except that people demand one nerf and BOOM!!!!! ZoS nerfs something completely unrelated.


    So I guess if we demand to hide shoulders, the next patch we will all be pantless...

    Honestly the furthest I can see them going past shoulders is hands and feet.Maybe belt.

    You can use some pretty hard to see shoulders like assassin league or Akaviri who looks like padding on an jerkin, only an issue with skinny tops like low level bosmer medium.
    But yes hiding had been nice.

    You can hide belt, use medium orc it does not show up.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    My main knows nearly every motif in the game yet I choose to wear "regalia of the scarlet judge" and "dibella doll mask, khajiiti" because most of the styles 1) don't hold dyes correctly and 2) look ugly with all sorts of floaty bits.

    Well I think you're actually describing part of their problem yourself right now. Their options are either to let no parts of an outfit be hidden, let all parts of an outfit be hidden, or allow the option to hide only a couple specific parts of an outfit. They likely don't want people to be able to hide EVERY part of an outfit because they likely do not want this to become a game where there are naked (or nearly naked) toons running around. But also, why would they ONLY let you hide shoulders? They would reasonably have to also let you hide gloves, belts, boots... I guess they might let people hide all parts except pants and chests. But either way you will end up with people who are unhappy that you can hide x slot but not y slot. They're probably trying to figure out this balance and the best way to navigate it, and it's probably not very high on their priority list.

    Personally,I think they shouldn't care if people choose to run around naked.This is an M rated game.
