    I agree. I was trying to just put a normal beard on my dude but apparently whomever designed the beards has never had one.

    The options go from

    1. no beard
    2. stubble
    3. GIANT TRANSIENT FACE BUSH
    4. SINISTER MOUSTACHE
    5. BACKSTREET BOY

    Yep, and nearly all the robes have plating of some kind on them, making them very unconvincing wizard robes.

    the OP didn't say that ESO takes place in that time period on earth. The OP used the term 'medieval fantasy', which does correctly describe ESO. That's what the 'fantasy' part means. The same way that Middle Earth and A Song of Ice and Fire is medieval fantasy.

    yes to more beards, or any customization for that matter.

    I really wish we had some more shorter beards. So many characters from Fantasy TV shows to recreate and most of them have beards like this that you can't get in ESO.

    My ladies are interested to see it on the men ;)

    And yes, we definitely need more facial hair. The ones we have are quite lacking and you get reminded of it every time you make a male character :/ Why is there so few "normal" beards? Like a simple short full beard.

    Better beards would be good.

    Hats that actually work WITH the hair would be excellent. Right now there are Very few hats that actually look good with the hair style. Most remove the hair altogether when the hat is put on.

    Exactly. Definitions. And the definition of "medieval fantasy" is fantasy setting with an medieval level of technology. As opposed to fantasy settings with different levels of technology. Those exist too, you know, but are not ESO.

    As for beards... sure!

    I totally would wanna see more options for all our characters! There are a great many styles they could add, in various fantasy and yes, historical settings. From asyrrian style beards a dwemer fanboy might enjoy to various viking-ish style braided beards, from long celtic mustaches to various asian style beards, there is much they could do!

    I also would love to see all the beardyness to become available in chargen as well if bought, so you can see how your character might look with a crownstore beard of hair right there, and not suffer any unpleasant surprises when it maybe doesn't turn out quite as good looking as you had thought back then...

    I'd love some normal longer beards. Right now we have a choice between boars nest and the one with braided moustache that doesn't really fit any character that isn't a Nord.
