Add-On Type features on Consoles

ThePaleItalian · June 2016

Hello fellow ESO peeps!!

So moving from the PC to console I have come to miss a few things. I am not talking addons to show book locations or hidden skyshards or anything like that. But I do have a few ideas, figured I would share with the class:

1.) After you find a Skyshard, show it on the map. I don't need to know hidden ones, and yea I know you can always check on the interwebs, but still. Just my personal opinion.

2.) Please give me loot history on the side, I get how you can turn off auto loot but sometimes I have missed set pieces and such because of the loot history. Just a thought. Maybe a feature to turn it off, or how long it stays up. I know it shows up on the left, but I guess for me just have it on the right side and let me look.

3.) Show me what traits I need to research instead of flipping back and forth between my bags and what I need to research... looking at you clothing with your 50 things. Or at least a symbol when you are breaking equipment down to show that you still need that piece to research.

4.) Dyeing costumes, I already have a post about it. But it would be fun just for more customizing.

5.) Barber shop. Doesn't have to be full body type make over, but that could always be a small crown charge. But Just add a few hair styles here and there. Or tats or body markings, I mean as the story progress more should be added. A thieves guild symbol, like on the places in the city. Or the BD hand. Just thoughts.

6.) Maybe a mini map. I am torn on this, I really do love the clean UI that is on consoles and I don't want a million things, but at least to toggle it or something.

7.) I do love the story and questing in ESO, I can get lost and just explore and play none stop, I have a VR16, so in no rush, plus with the new DLC it will be nice to not hammer through VR zones. But I would love to have at least some account wide achievements. I don't know, guess I was used to WoW.

Sorry for the long post, I have an issue with that. But I figured I would share. I love this game and these are thing personally I feel would streamline the gameplay for me.

Thanks!!
KCCO!

I have to say this...

It really doesn't need to be an add-on, as I started on PC too. A lot of that should just be in the settings as an option to turn on/off by character.

Give them a little bread, leaving them wanting more. If you give them a whole banquet they'll just want it all the time.

Fallout 4 is either in the process or is live with addons on console. I have read in several locations the up coming remastered Skyrim will have mod support. I have also read that if these experiments go well we will see mod support on the console for ESO.

I have never seen anything with a date on it so there is no confirmed go live, but it is a small light at the end of the tunnel.

I played since Beta so I am not demanding more or complaining. But the ability to do so much on PC would be nice to see a few things on console.

I can live without all of them, but I doubt I am the only one who wouldnt like to see more. I am sure there are things you would like to see added.

For the love of goodness PLEASE move this to the right.

...playing gamepad mode on PC makes it so your chat covers your loot and it's super annoying. Chat is supposed to come to console too... and I betcha it'll go in the left corner...

Well it's that way because it would cover voice chat prompts on console so it can't be moved there unless the UIs are merged and redone entirely when text chat is added to consoles.

One last thing..

I would like a buff counter or debuff counter. Once again. Not asking for all this. But its nice to just share some things I want, not that I need.

But showing how long until your rally or shields are going to last would be nice for me since I am always trying to not waste resources or at least have the same buffs and they don't stack. Maybe a little icon or something, in larger raids and PvP its hard to see your character period. So maybe a little love to the consul master race.
