The "I'm Not Flashy!" Club

Mysanne

I don't like skins. I prefer a natural look. And it's the same for my houses.

The two characters below may feel a bit flashy, but they should still be somewhat immersion friendly, even with a more generous use of colours.

Lucilla Vigilita, Imperial, looks quite colourful, but she is fully natural from tip to toes, as is her guar:

Danna Indoril, Dunmer, may look a bit more unusual to a Nirn commoner, but the look is quite common for a Clockwork Apostle, even if she is a bit wayward in her choice of attire:

I have no issue with flashy armors, skins and mounts. To each their own.

However, my main Alex is a master thief and as such will always try to remain practical and inconspicuous.

The last thing he wants to do is draw attention to himself, so he dresses in drab black clothing with a wide-brim hat that can be pulled down to shadow his features if necessary (hoods on non-mages can make others instantly suspicious) and has a plain grey horse with discreet saddlebags to carry his loot. He also doesnt keep any pets.




My sorc Runilkar is a bit on the conservative side as well, dressing in old ancient elf robes and not using skins or keeping a pet either. The closest he comes to flashy is once in a while he'll summon a clanfear (never a twilight, he finds those flappy things to be quite annoying) or conjure a spectral horse when hes not in the mood to walk somewhere (which to him is far more practical than having to keep and care for a live horse).

Handsome and practical!

What is the name of that gray horse?

Ah, but when everyone is dressed like a boiled lolly, his drabness makes him conspicuous. A conundrum!

I made an account just to share. I don't like super flashy looks. Iratoro will eventually have the ashlander gear as I lie how it looks.

Not going to lie, most of my characters fall into the gaudy category. This is probably my “plainest” character at the moment:

Hey it still works though! My reasoning is, even if its really "detailed", if it fits in with the lore setting of your character, like if you would see an NPC wearing it too, then it's immersive. Anywhere from casual Sundas attire to the armor of an Orc warrior or the garb of a tribal Shaman.

Osteos

I'm not flashy! Look at me ! Look at me! Lol

david_m_18b16_ESO

Flashy and vibrant armor ? I have not yet seen anything like that in eso. It is actualy the least flashy mmo I have ever played.

Gretzel

I can't stand glowing, gaudy, hyper flashy things.

That's the Yokudan horse that me and others requested for a come back I don't even how many times and frankly I got tired to do so.

@ZOS Really, your shrewdness in this crates season left me truly amazed, not only there are new items boring as hell, you could have put in there NICE OLD ITEMS like the Yokudan horse and the Doeskin-and-chamois-woods-wear requested a lot and that aren't around from a looooong time!

If you wanted me to spare all the gems I have left, mission accomplished, I spent none.

Every corner you look in this game you see vibrant armors, gaudy skins, glowing eyes, and over the top flashy mounts. I wanted to know just how many of you, like myself, try to remain relatively "normal" when it comes to your Outfit Styles and the Mounts you ride in order to maintain our immershun. We may be boring or bland, but we also take pride in not being an eye sore. Show us your practical, minimalist, immersive looks.

I find your attempt at making boring out to be some sort of new elite to be just sad.

I dont know, there are some users that seems constantly pulling comments out their asses just for the sake to be annoying. I don't know about you, but really... what the hell are you talking about?

You could even say "your outfit sucks" and it would make sense, you don't like it, not your taste, alright, but how in the hell you got the idea this user wanted to be "some sort of new elite"? What's that?

Damn, it's a Khajiit with a commonly used nice style and not flashy dyes, that's all, where is this sad attempt to be elite ffs.

Wow. You're just [snip]ing rude. Go watch Velvet Buzzsaw on your own time. Leave it out of the forums for people who are just trying to be genuine.

Dude started it when he started calling other's Eye Sores! Saying he takes "Pride" in looking normal. If that doesn't smack of Elitism to you you're probably an elitist!

Me too I don't like the arbitrary fashion police around "that's too flashing", "that's too sparkling, glowing" and so on, I also have some quite flashy characters myself even if the majority are not, truth is I very like to see any kind of styles and the more the better! Even if very different from my taste (for example I hate "zombie" things but that too adds some diversity), different styles makes the surrounding more interesting and less boring overall.
Though you came out as a bit rude there, it's a relaxed thread, just to enjoy pics, and I was amazed to read that about "attempt to be some elite", just that.

I literally put my obnoxious eye-sore of a character on @ArchMikem 's post and the OP didn't even say one negative comment about it. It seems like the OP was just trying to encourage the community to share their immersive characters and open up some friendly chat. Relax, man.

I'm not the one attacking people's choices here buddy. So sure, let's pile on the person who likes colors and flash and thinks people shouldn't go around calling his choices eye sores!
