I like the idea with mixing at bit of 'realism' I think there should be limitations to hairstyle, skin tone, weight, etc. Basically theoretically things that could change over time or through grooming, eating, etc. I realize this is fantasy, but I think complete alteration of appearance just breaks some of the basics of the character's unique identity.

I don't mind the mirror concept being limited to quick changes. Just as long as a mage can be found who can change your race, sex, even class or name. For a humongous fee, of course.

My character's have unique identities. I understand your point there. But I build each character from their backstory up. It's the way I play and the way I prefer it.

But even I recognize that other players are more fickle, may have had less pre-planning, or may have fallen in love with the lore. ESO has a lot of first time roleplayers who are now regretting their pink lizard named 'runs-into-walls'.

I've had to come to terms that, other players changing their characters is dramatic ways, is no different than those players simply deleting old characters and making new characters with the same name, which means it impacts me not at all. And if it makes ZOS a few more bucks in microtransactions, or earns a few more happy subscribers, then I actually benefit from something I don't personally care for.

if there's a mirror in the game

I'd just stare at it whole day instead of altering my appearance

unless u duh ugly
