Something fun would be to be able to not use real world money to obtain a mount other than a horse. Takes some fun out of the game for me when I see there are only horses that are purchasable in game with the money you have earned.

You can make money so easily in this game you just have to give up crafting to do it lol

Yeah earning gold in game isn't a problem. Maybe I should have been more clear. I don't like that more mounts are available on the crown store than in game. You have to spend real world money to get anything other than a horse. There should be other mounts you can earn in game that are unique as well. Perhaps a Fighters Guild, Mages Guild, and Undaunted specific mount by completing some unique questlines.

I already quoted Mini games in my first quote
did you even go to the link and look? and add WHAT mini games are listed in that link instead of puking out "i already quoted mini games"

Technically there is a reason why that post exists separately. I don't go copying and pasting people's ideas unless its in this thread.

Ya I understand that would be a lot better than our selection of ingame purchaseable horses. That cold/ice looking horse would be great coming from mage guild.

I second or third the water balloon fights.

Text chat for consoles.

Player housing: In city instances preferred over a housing only zone.

waterfairy · July 2015

Friendly fist fights with players that can be initiated like group invites "Vigarr has invited you to a fist fight"

ugh, lol.

A ingame card game. where you can get cards from npc by beating them or randomly in chests and what not. it will be a fun original ESO style card game but in a way like the card games in the witcher 3 or FF8-9

obviously you can play against other players too, you just wont lose any cards if you lost the card game :P

LOL that's a great idea.

Mini games where you could play other players, such as draughts or snooker or tennis or football.....okay im getting carried away. Small games would be fun.

Well first they need to add dueling in the game then we can talk about some kill the carrier football but I guess stealing the scrolls in PVP would be considered football although, you run miles to the touchdown line lol

ghostwise · July 2015

Not so sure about a Gwent or Triple Triad type of game but some form of gambling such as dice or poker would work well I think.

Also, duels. We should be able to duel.

Kronosdevourer · July 2015

Add more Customization for werewolf's and vampires, also change motifs for crafting make them more changeable for when you use diff ingots all looks the same, going back to werewolf's and vamp's add vamp lord please they need it and make werewolf's more Skyrim like, because those Werewolf's were awesome and I miss them also more skill customization for both of them just going to 10 points is cool but I crave more

Thanks. I would love this to mess around with friends or challenge that annoying player to a fight so I can feel satisfied punching them in the face.

I would challenge you. We could meet at a pub and have a knock down drag out good old fashioned fist fight. Loser buys drinks.

Gaiden'Densetsu · July 2015

-I really would like a hand to hand style with some kind of brass knuckle like weapon, call it brawler.
-Player housing
-Full IU with mini map and name plates, would like to not use an addon just for a mini map but can live with it, but name plates would be great. For all you that cry "immersive" please let them toggle it off.
-The wabbajack

Fun Idea: no lag in Cyrodiil.
Fun Idea: responsive skills
etc

Bow class

ARCH3RB13 · July 2015

Bow specific class, i.e. ranger hunter

Please elaborate. Do you mean crossbow?

-Armor embellishment/customization: be able to add different textures (worn, shiny, aged, battered, scratch marks) to our armor like an overlay of sorts, patterns to be engraved into armor (like the breton armor engravings, just with more choices), and jewels spikes bones to be added for decor.

-More hairstyles and adornments

-Bard skill, ala fable style with collectable songs

-Shield dying, and metal weapon 'dipping' in silver gold bronze or copper to change the look of a weapon.

-Brawls/friendly pvp

-Certain drinks/potions give off fun effects. You can be drunk, smelly, sparkling, for a short amount of time.

Make a minigame out of item crafting, like the rhythm based minigame in Fable 2 for blacksmithing.

The amount of tempers you put into it will determine the difficulty of the minigame and the rest is player skill (Can opt out to current RNG based failure rate).
That will distinguish the good crafters from the bad, as better smiths can reliably provide higher quality gear with fewer tempers.
A key part of the system is adjusting the minigame's difficulty so the 'average' player has a Win:Loss ratio approximately equal to the Success Chance if they had opted out to the current system.

Not sure how to implement something similar for consumable crafts.

That was fun for you? I hated that timed minigame. It's a good idea for RPG's to never follow Fable for anything.

Really? I thought the Fable games were a prime example of a perfectly executed western Role Pla.... ppttthhwahahaha! Heheheh. Sorry. I thought I could get it out without laughing.

An enchantment to change the weight of the armor you apply it to—so you could make Heavy armor into Light armor or vice-versa. The actual AC would be affected based on the strength of the Glyph, so for example:

You start with a piece of Light Armor that gives you 100 AC.
A piece of Heavy Armor at the same level gives you 1000 AC.

(Kindly ignore the fact that I'm pulling these numbers out of thin air.)

A Ta-level Glyph would increase the AC of the Light Armor by 20% of the difference between the Heavy and Light, so 100 + 180 -> 280.
Jejota would increase it by 40% of the difference
Denata by 60%
Rekuta by 80%
Kuta by 100%

A Glyph to turn Heavy into Light would instead cause the item to KEEP a percentage of its original AC in spite of now being considered a Light armor piece.

Regardless of the Glyph strength, the item would count as the Enchantment weight for the purpose of passives and perks. This would let you use set pieces that only come in Heavy armor on a Light armor focused character, or let you have the aesthetics of Light armor while getting the benefits of Heavy, etc.

1v1 options.

Joust

Arena

Archery challenges

traigusb14_ESO2 · July 2015

Oh forgot.

Ability to use lower level armor styles at higher crafting levels.

There are some great looks that people use for 25 mins, then level past. Then you get locked into the same look for each racial at vet levels.

I never counted, but it seems that each racial motif has 3-4 looks per weight.. but we get stuck with only the heaviest at vet levels.

I'd love to wear some of the chain looks and lower level leather armor looks at max level.

Escorting trade caravans across the pve zone. From a town to a guild trader, with various conflicts along the way.

allyoudpsesarebad · July 2015

heres a crazy idea a box with text in it called text chat

Regarding archery. Obviously free aim is out of the question so I propose a rocks paper scissors style quick draw.

The range could be full of targets requiring a heavy attack, two light attacks or a sniper shot. The trials could be timed and it would be a challenge of selecting the proper shot.

NotSo · July 2015

I want to see a dark anchor open over a neglected Cyrodiil keep, sectioning it off from players momentarilly, wiping all the friendly NPCs inside, then revealing the keep as a daedric stronghold that would require 20+ player raids to recapture. Also meteors are raining down as an environment hazard, specifically aiming at players who stand still for 5 seconds (1 meter travel distance every 5 seconds to avoid being aimed at).

Daedric keep spawns would follow simple guidlines: can only spawn when 0 players are present within x radius of keep; keep has to be absent of action for x hours; only one daedric keep can be active at any time.
