Further player character customization awareness thread

Runefell · January 2015

There are two things I desperately want.

First, accessory/hair change. I made the mistake of choosing red flowers to put in my khajiit's mane when I created her. Now that we can color-customize our clothing, that somewhat limits my options. Also, it looked very out of place when she was a vampire. I would love to give her a haircut and earrings or something.

Second, voice change. I forgot to choose the voice when I created her, and now my small, delicate, adorable female khajiit sounds like a male orc every time she gets hit, jumps, or falls. I created her with the intention of her being a bard. Manly grunts and growls do not really become her.

A race change for some people would force them into a new alliance area,

Good point. I keep forgetting that as I got the Imperial Edition.

AGAIN ZOS just allow character changes at the Character Selection page. This is NOT rocket science. ALLOW changes to everything except RACE and CLASS. How does this change the game for anyone except in a positive way. Why are we having discussions on whether hair or face or tattoos or this or that can be changed. It is pointless, JUST ADD THE FEATURE in the CHARACTER SELECTION Menu.

That makes TOO much sense... There's got to be some technical reason why this can't be done...

I have an idea about "epic" disguises.New disguises.
What do you think?

MornaBaine · January 2015

C'mon ZOS @GinaBruno , et al, no word at all on plans for character customization???

Lord_Draevan · January 2015

I agree with weapon and shield dyeing. OR, if ZOS is dead set against this for whatever reason, simply allow us to revert to previous tier colors, i.e the grey of Iron and Steel gear.

BETTER LIGHTING is desperately needed in the character creation screen. I'd also like to be able to get a better close up view of the face.

Being able to pan 360 degrees in all directions besides sideways would help a lot too. Other games I've played had this so you could see the upshot, downview, top of head, etc and tweak the appearance based on all angles. The current chargen still afflicts me when making new alts or re-making ones I'm still not happy with. The lighting and limit of panning angles really hurts this.

Still the best solution is to either make the body and face sliders from char creation accessible at the character select screen, or add barbers, tatoo artists, and mage body sculptors. Then when we want to tweak something, it won't be as drastic as re-rolling a hundred times.

Well it was not necessary for me to die of shock as ZOS seems to still be dragging their feet on this issue. Here's hoping for next month! I really hope they pull out all the stops as I felt what was presented to open the Crown Shop was sadly pretty lackluster.

Customizable mount saddles as well, crafting them and dyeing. And could we please change the color of the pets as well...not all housecats are the same color, fgs.

You have NO IDEA how badly I want to see more and BETTER hairstyles!

Supported.

It's not really customization for my character per se but.....

I want to style my mount. With how often some people use their mounts they might as well be considered an extension of the players legs.

I'm not just talking about armor either. I want iron brands, tattoos and at least a few hair-style options for their manes. Maybe some jewelry piecing on their ears. Plus optional scarring. It doesn't have to be that high of quality or anything but I want customization for my mount.

There is just something about my nord riding a rugged looking brown horse and my dunmer riding with a highly tattoo tribal guar.....

As long as its purely cosmetic with no implications to any stats....do what the hell you like.
Except swords, shields and armour are hide or metal....not pink pocadot or flower power floral designs.
Just no....limit the options.
Don't want to see rainbow unicorns running across tamriel....thanks.
Go play wow if you really want that stuff.
ie...lore friendly
