How is looks from other set is inferior to looks from whatever style you want?
How is looks from other set is inferior to looks from whatever style you want?
Ehum... Compare like old basegame sets like Draugr and Woodelf (as in Bone Pirate and Spriggan, just as an example) to some of the newer styles. If "superior" equals actual better looks, higher resolution textures etc., there you have the answer.
It's always subjective when speaking about style, of course. But quite a few of the old styles are very simple, very low resolution, and at least imho not aesthetically appealing at all. Many of the new styles looks really nice in all ways.
I think the ESO method is way inferior to the GW2 system where you can mix 2 sets and get stats from one and looks of the other (they also have costumes).
Does anyone craft in specific styles outside of master writs?

Interesting... I think ESO has much better outfit system than GW2 Sure, we can hide shoulders/gloves in GW2, but that's the only good thing about it.
If the character has profession (class) that can only wear heavy armor, you can only change your look to other heavy armor styles - you can't use medium and light styles
In ESO, outfit system is almost perfect. I think about old pre-outfitting times with horror; and there was time when we couldn't even dye costumes

Always wonder this anytime I select 'No Outfit' on a character and am horrified at what I look like when you strip away the wonders of modern cosmetic surgery (aka. Outfits).
Was everyone running around tinted red wearing the BIS gear of the month, with ghastly monster helms and shoulder gear? Or did lots of people wear off-meta stuff that visually appealed to them when they were doodling around in towns? If not it must have been very...samey.
On the same topic, I feel like style materials when crafting gear are pretty much obsolete. If I make crafted sets for myself or others I always just make them in daedric or whatever I have a lot of, assuming that it'll always be covered up by an outfit. Does anyone craft in specific styles outside of master writs? If so, why?
Assume the GW2 system is the same as in WOW where you change the look of an items by making it look like another item who fit the same slot / are the same type.What I dislike a lot about ESO outfitter system is
- that you always have the same look
- without outfit monster sets mostly look terrible even if you just show the shoulders
- mostly if you dye a set it looks like shiny plastic
