Request to Devs to allow us to See and Show char names on PS4 instead of PSN ID

It really spoils the game for me and many others, seeing a bosmer female called DAVE50505 is just silly and i don't get why we can't see name when you have us pick a char name... and if the char name was only for the char screen then why does it not allow two people to have the same name?

This is a really really stupid thing Zenimax has done with ESO on PS4 and it's beyond disappointing, so please change it or allow a tick box to show them.

    I agre, It works alot better on console to show the characters in game name. Nobody wants to share their PSN with everybody and nobody wants steve42069 the master blacksmith wood elf

    Oh wow, that's very sucky. On the PC version we can see individual names, however on both the friend or guild lists it shows our user IDs, which people find frustrating and quite immersion breaking.. Having random PSNs thrown around everyone would indeed be an eyesore... hopefully they get on that.

    I'm pretty sure this is because of the consoles, not because ZoS wanted it this way.

    Change this, please. We named our characters for a reason.
