Which would include:
Guild owned ships
Daily quests like escorting trade ships or hunting down pirates
Maormer/sea elves quest line
Playable Maormer race
Exploration of underwater caves
Sea monsters as bigger raid monsters since dragons are out and daedra overused by now
Expansion/revamp of fishing

    I don't think that ESO engine could ever handle ships and ships battles. (Even tho Havok is a great engine, I don't know what happened with ESO)

    Havok is the physics engine. This game was built with the hero engine and modified to a 'custom engine'.

    Hmm well you wouldn't necessarily have to battle. Just sail around, and let's be honest, when player housing comes in how are they going to fit everyone in there? WE COULD LIVE ON BOATS.

    Instanced housing probably. I really wish I could see a sea dlc happen, but they barely handle Cyrodill :(

    But only if they make swimming interesting, like for a start, being able to actually go underwater.

    Also all for the pirate theme(not necessarily the underwater stuff cause water levels are notorious for being the absolute worst in gaming). That said, Hero Engine doesn't seem to support true z-axis control, every game I've seen/played on it only allows for surface swimming

    There is so much ES lore about the seas, but no game so far as had anything to do with it. I think people want more water-related stuff because we can't dive and explore under water, which we are used to from the singleplayer games.

    I would love to see something naval, although I highly doubt there will ever be a DLC with it as a focus. But we can dream :blush:

    Sea based dlc would be great, but only if it includes PvP.
    Every alliance has a coast where you have quests to drive back enemy invadors, so sea fights would perfectly fit in the lore. In one of the AD areas you already have a quest where you are on a ship and fight on deck while shooting a sea serpent with a ballista. This could be perfefctly modified to allow ship to ship battles and if you fall in the water during combat, the slaughterfish will be happy.

    Without proper swimming and underwater exploration it would be a farce and the chance they introduce that is so close to 0 that we as well might say there is no chance.

    I thought about PVP with it too. Like you need restock supplies, so you pillage villages and whatnot, so you find PVP on coastal towns and stuff. I think Ship battles might be a bit advanced for their engine at the moment.

    Especially if open seas are PvP content. Attack other guilds ships...yes please. Could be awesome fun!

    If not, I still loved Skies of Arcadia...if they could incorporate some sort of ship to ship combat, with guild members oroviding unique roles in the ship, that would be amazing!

    I want to say yes but since ZOS hates Argonians, inevitably something like this would come with a swim speed nerf. Can't have that passive being useful for something.
