No. Race changes are one thing but you LEARN your class as you level. Its bad enough with the buy a max level in other games

Yeah, that would be a huge no for me.

No, I wouldn't. I've got characters of all classes - I don't want to switch any of them.

I'm not against paying for more freedom in my character creation, rename, class/race change, etc. But I'm pretty happy with the way things are atm, if I want to change my class, I'll create an alt for now, no big deal as I like playing different characters.

I would almost be interested in a race change. Or even being able to buy the ability to change my looks.

No. I create my characters as I want them to be, and I accept it's part of an MMO that they will evolve with the game as changes are made down the line. I'm not a min-maxer and don't play competitively, so I happily continue with the characters regardless of any changes to them.

Why change my Class? I rolled 4 mains, one in each class and have leveled them pretty evenly.

Previous Elder Scrolls games worked just fine without restricting your character to a single class, I can't see why they ever implemented them here.

Race? Sure. I realized my error afterwards when I changed a build from magicka to stamina.
Class?
Uhhhh.... no. Why would you do that? That's like being on the 20th mile of a marathon and then bring driven back to the starting line and made to go again.
You have lots of slots. Use them.

Only thing that would be cool is race change .. for example I started my dk as a fire mage so I went dunmer now I changed him into a tank might be better off for me to switch to nord but o well

There's a difference between classes that only affect how fast you gain XP for your chosen skill lines, but still being able to learn everything, and completely blocking your access to other classes skill lines, as is the case with ESO.
I'd have no problem with oblivion-style classes where picking a sorc for example would provide you with a passive bonus that increases your XP with sorc-specific skills, as long as you can also learn the skills of other classes, just level them at a slower rate.

If we had access to every class skill line, players would quickly figure out the most OP skills and combinations, and then everyone would have the exact same cookie cutter build with the exact same skill loadout. It's fine the way it is now. Could they stand to add a few new skills to each class here and there? Yes, but I'm not holding my breath.

Heck, I'd pay just to change my hairstyle lol but yes I wish class change was an option too

Probably not until I got bored enough but yeah I would. Race changes and faction swap I am suprised are not available already.

I can see why you'd expect race changes to already be a thing, but you're surprised faction swapping isn't a crown store option? I'm surprised that you're surprised that the ability to change factions isn't around.

Don't see how that would be too far fetched switching factions. With a cool down of maybe 30 days similar to switching grand companies ala a realm reborn. I haven't really had time to play teso enough yet to know if there is anything in particular that would make this not possible tbh

Say you complete levels 1-24 via questing in AD and decide to change to EP, how are they going to transfer all of the questing and whatnot you've done to AD? Assuming there's an equal number of quests per zone they could do 1 to 1 sort of thing but consider how much time, effort and energy it would take to code that sort of thing. I'd prefer they focus on actual content.. re-rolling is not a hard thing, I re-rolled on a VR2 because I decided EP was more lore appropriate for me.

My biggest surprise, since I found out about the game almost 2 years ago is that there are factions that you chose at character creation and you belong to them soley based on the fact that you droped from the sky directly into their teritorial waters. In a TES game! Still the most preopsterous idea I have ever heard related to the game.

Faction joining should have been a mid game game choice with an option for neutrality.Sort of like in a TES game.

That's the same with fixed classes, lack of skill lines, limited enchanting and alchemy system.. A lot of things change in an MMO setting and unfortunately that was the case if the faction system. That being said, it wouldn't have been horrible if they did have a tutorial after the tutorial where you can pick which faction to side with, but either way I'm quite indifferent as ultimately your faction just influences who you can play with and PvP.

I dont think class changes should ever be an option. Players need to learn how a class' abilities work, and that means playing from the start with the same set of abilities.

However, I do want to see a faction change option come up in the future, as well as race change. I primarily play dominion, but I have characters in all 3 factions. I have a 36 dragonknight in the pact that I'd love to transfer over to the dominion to save myself some levelling time, and because I really like how that character wound up looking, but she's stuck on a faction I almost never play on because my guildmates and friends are all dominioneers.
