Moarmer as a playable race?

STEVIL✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭Other (please specify in comments).i have no objection to new content -bring it on.
But before you bring in a new race as a PC - gotta identify its function in the game other than what we have now.
What functionality does it bring in that wont already be done as good or better by one of the existing races?
Will it overshadow in function any of the existing races?
if the answer to the first is "nothing" then its likely to see nothing more than cosmetic use occasionally and drift down the whirlpool to obscurity.
if the answer to the second is not none, then a lot of existing players will be slammed.
"Exploring the maomer world and story" can be done just as well from a current race transplant in a fish-outta-water context just as easily and with all the story potential and none of the game impact issues.
its why so many stories you see or read have a "normal guy" thrown in - so the folks around them in the new strange place/time can explain and show it all "to the character" and by default to us viewers.Proudly skooma free while talks-when-drunk is in mandatory public housing.

✭Yes, Moarmer should join the ESO family.I think this could be something done in the future, once development begins to steady. I would only want it as DLC, with its own starter area, however. The race is uncommon, so it should be locked behind a barrier, and unlike with the Imperial race, this would be an acceptable decision.With cold regards,

✭✭Other (please specify in comments).Why are people so keen on additional races? Why not add a Maormer themed zone, or any other zone, that adds some "endgame content", some new story lines, some other interesting plot?
Adding a new race does nothing but force you to revisit all the same skyshards, lorebooks, undaunted dungeons and repeat the cyrodiil grind. Boring. Been there, done that 12 times.
Say no to new races or new classes. Ask for new content.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Yes, Moarmer should join the ESO family.
Nope.But before you bring in a new race as a PC - gotta identify its function in the game other than what we have now...
After all, costumes have no function in the game either, other then aestetics and roleplaying.
And thus additional races would need no function other then make people pay for something extra so they can feel extra special. Or look better. or for some roleplaying.
The only question is, would enough people pay for it to make it profitable for ZOS.
If yes, they might do it, if no, then not.
The precedent with the imperial edition is there. They could easily add to that, and bring those lore-viable races already in the game with their own crafting style as crown unlock for little effort I suppose.
Of course, they might prefer to wait until there is a good opportunity. Like... if they ever make an "sea raiders" DLC that takes of to pyandonea... then it would be a great time to add "maormer exile" as race unlock to the crown store, and see who buys it, either for new characters, or to refit to existing ones.
Same with the others - if they ever make an Reach-themed DLC, they could add reachmen as racial option. Not exactly sure how they could justify gobbos, though there might be many options, from some wild regions where goblin tribes are common, to a "Dunmer slave revolt" themed DLC in, say, the telvanni isles or whatever...
The point is, it will be up to them to decide if they want to pick up some of those ideas. We are just throwing them around...

The problem is that goblins lack the intellectual capacity that the other races have. The Moarmer are just as capable as the other races, but the goblins are not advanced enough to say the same. Also, I would love a Telvanni Isles DLC. ZOS, take my money!With cold regards,

✭✭✭No, Moarmer should stay on Pyandonea where they belong.Most people saying yes dont even know who they are or what they do.
They just want to see a new race that will probably inbalance the game.
It would also make zero sense for them to fight with the Dominion after what happens and absolutely no reason for them to be a part of DC or EP as well.
Imperials have a reason as their homes are completely overrun and their leaders have disappeared/betrayed them so they play a huge role in the story line but Moarmer? Give me a break.1 -

But the races that do make sense within the confines of the story we have? Which are already in the game as NPCs anyhow?
Why not add them at some point?
It'd be a gain for all who enjoy them, be it as new characters or through a race change token, and those who care little... just don't buy them, exactly like some people never pay to unlock Imperials.

Just like Imperials are one more choice added to the nine options you have before you get the imperial edition.
Why someone might choose that option is dependent on other considerations. Looks and for some. Passives for others. Lore for others still. And if the option was done like imperials (which it would be, no sense them not doing any possible future racial additions any other way), then each and every player cound decide for themselves if the added option would be worth the crowns for them.
And those who might consider it pointless... just wouldn't have to buy it.

Sorry but nope - have to disagree.
Costumes and such have no impact on game and little to no long term up-keep. They are just cosmetic one-shots folks will buy or not and no further investments involved.
Adding a player race adds massive new game impacts and long term constant up-tick and changes and impacts.
its a whole different animal.
So the first question i have still remains what will it bring to the game and what will it hurt thats already in the game. If those dont have well considered answers - adding a new race is a non-starter for me. Most likely for ZOS as well because if it doesn't get played because there aren't good reasons for it over the other races - its sales will suffer.
A DLC maomer approach where no extra race and all that upkeep is needed is more likely a better investment.
lets face it we could imagine 100 new races come up with lakcluster ***-hum stats and add them for 10 bucks each but they likely wouldn't pay for their long term in-game upkeep - routine testing of new changes alone would cost exponentially more.

A race, as opposed to a DLC, adds about 5 new skills in a new combination that interacts with four classes with three different specialties (stam/mag/hlt) at least. that is a lot of extra testing for every patch.
If that new race overshadows an exiting race in that race's current strength it hurts the players of that original race.
if the new race doesn't compete with existing races in its strength, it doesn't get played much at al;l but still has to be factored into all testing etc.
Lets put it this way - take your house. if someone adds a new room that you have no need for it is a net negative becauise that room has upkeep associated with it even if it never gets used. if that new room juts out and blocks the view from your bedroom that you liked, its a negative. if that new room starts to leak because you ignore upkeep on that room and that leak flows into the other rooms its a negative. if that new room is tied into the heating and air so that it has to be climate controlled - its raising your monthly bills for sapce you aren't using.
Adding cosmetic stuff is easy one shot.
Adding new content like DLCs is harder but manageable since it doesn't change the base game operations and upkeep that much. You have added X area and the upkeep is in X area.
Adding a new RACE with skills - that impacts and interacts with everything else.
maomer themed DLC adventure pack - costumes - appearances - sure - no problem.
Add a race for the sake of adding it without a defined place for it or need for it... nope.

Wrong.A race, as opposed to a DLC, adds about 5 new skills in a new combination that interacts with four classes with three different specialties (stam/mag/hlt) at least. that is a lot of extra testing for every patch.
It adds -passives- not skills. And unless one were to add completely new passives... all that "extra testing" is a minor thing - I mean, if the new races passives do not exceed any of the old races passives, there is little need for months of playtesting, right? Not after all the testing they already did for the existing races with their existing passives - they just would have to model any new races after "known territory"
And there are several pretty easy options there.
For example, you could just take the dunmer passives, swap the favored skill (I'd go with Polearms, and give them all tridents... ), change the lava resist to swimming speed, change all flame-related boni to shock instead, and have a new race of maromer stormcallers. And since nothing there would be "more effective" then the dunmer, there would be no need for extra playtesting - they'd be pretty much the same, just in sea&shock instead of lava&fire flavor.
Go on, tell me again how immensely much extra effort that would be...
True, can't have any "better then usual" races behind the paywall. Otherwise all the leaderboards would be filled with imperials, right?If that new race overshadows an exiting race in that race's current strength it hurts the players of that original race.
if the new race doesn't compete with existing races in its strength, it doesn't get played much at al;l but still has to be factored into all testing etc.
But so what? You think its so difficult for them to balance something when they already have two years of experience with ten other races? When they can use those as example and just would need to mix it up a tiny little bit for a new flavor?
I am thinking you overestimate the issue here...
Let's put it this way - take your house.Lets put it this way - take your house...
Do you want to have the option to add a room IF you need one?
Would you find it troubling if someone told you you are not allowed to add rooms to -your- house if you want to use them, because they do not wish any new rooms in -their- house?
Now lets go with a the shared house... You may not intend to use that room, so you see it as drawback. I am thinking, other people may want to use that room. And pay extra for it. I know I would. So I am more inclined to see it as advantage, to give me that option.
(And FYI - my house here is historically grown, with over half the space being rooms added over the course of the last century or so That somewhat weakens your argument in my eyes...)
And thus the only true question would be - "would it be worth the effort", and that is one only ZOS can answer. Maybe they will tally their Imperial Edition sales, and ponder the results, use it as measure if the effort of adding a race already in the game and all for players to make characters from is worth it.0 -

Well, hey, look, if you believe just mixing and matching passives from existing races and changing flame to shock and such are all easy safe and no big deals as far as testing or impact goes... all i gotts say is i am really really really glad you aren't in charge of QC/QA/testing.
The most famous last words are "hey, y'all. Watch this" but second most famous are "This is no big deal. minimal testing is needed."

Because the snow elves were all either wiped out by the atmorans, or mutated into blind falmer many ages ago. By the time of ESO, they are the stuff of myth and legends, and certainly not around anymore (as far as anyone knows - yes, I know, there are a few still hiding, we can meet some in Skyrim, but as a whole the race is as gone as the dwemer...)
So, no snow elves. No dwemer. No sinmer. No ayleids. No chimer. They're all gone for ages.
If new races, then from among those still around. And maaaaaaaayyyyyyybeee some "last survivors" from recently gone extinct people (like the Kothringi or Lilmothiit who reportedly all died in the knarhaten flu a mere twenty or so years before ESO - but with our player character stuck in coldharbour for a bit, that might be plausible - if rare, and thus should have an artificually inflated price tag if ever done)
