My 4th times a charm first person improvement thread

dsalter · September 2016

Old thread is ---> HERE <---
it contains 2 older threads i made, one with images regarding what i mentioned.

so... can we see some improvements this time around? nothing major just lower buff "aura" density around the screen (we can has sliders?) and switch destruction staffs to be held normally instead of like Javalins (see one of my older links above for images) and maybe just MAYBE allow us alittle more freedom with first person camera adjustments.

please don't leave me hanging

My issue is I feel like even as a max height altmer my range of view is at throat level on the shorter characters weapons are way to close to camera and glows

Yeah I'm behind this as I play exclusively in 1st person - in fact it's the only reason I still play I suspect - without 1st person it's just another mmo and I have a lot to choose from. But no others offer a 1/2 decent first person view.

In essence the biggest issues are 3 fold:
1. Inability to see self buffs effectively without an add-on.
2. Overly bright abilities and/or enchantments.
3. Animations - I don't much like the staff animations but I can live with them, I really don't like some of the stamina weapon ones though esp low slash which is horrible in first person. Oh and gap closers that move you through your opponent or leave them out of your fov are really annoying.

I'll do more of a review and post more later, but I'm not hopeful as 1st person view is the minority and unlikely to warrant dev time.

I do realize I'm necroing a 6 month old thread (which is not that old in the scope of things), but it's been very hard to find any information about this issue so I'm doing it anyway. The screenshot in the original thread is exactly my problem, the "aura" from buffs in first person is simply horrible, too bright, too big, immersion breaking! Please make this smaller, or give us an option to change the brightness of it, or let us turn it off. I don't think there's a mod out there that will do it, and it's really annoying!
