Constellations?

I have to say, I'm a bit overwhelmed with the new CP system, but I'll figure it out.

The thing that's bothering me the most is that they moved away from the classic CONSTELLATIONS. I mean, the constellations have been significant to characters since the very first game (I think... it's been a long time since Arena... maybe it really started in ES3:Morrowind).

Anyhow, the new names bother me. I wish they had kept it to the traditional constellations, that felt more like Elder Scrolls.

    I was surprised they didn't just go with the names of the 'major' constellations (Warrior, Mage and Thief), but my guess is they didn't want people thinking they're only relevant to certain types of characters - for example thinking because they're a DK tank they don't need anything in the Mage constellation because they're not a caster.

    But it doesn't bother me much because while the constellations have always been relevant what it means has changed. I don't remember Arena and Daggerfall but in Morrowind and Oblivion you picked your birth sign and it gave you a (relatively minor) bonus, in Skyrim and ESO that's been replaced with the stones which let you choose and change your sign (hence the guy who registers new arrivals in Seda Neen complaining the some people try to claim it's changed since their last visit).

    It's probably made to broaden the boundaries of what can be added in them also not limiting in numbers when they'll decide to add more in future.
