Try riding one. You can dance on that butt.
If you like bling bling the horse is second to God.0 -

I didn't get the horse. As pointed out, the armor does make its butt look too big. The horses are chunky enough!
These are fantasy concepts so I'm not being serious about Ingame but cleated horseshoes are one of the reason race horses get injured on tracks so often . The help dig in for more traction but put extra strain on the limbs . A nail cover would cause splitting of the hoof after running if it was molded to the shoe . A horse hoof flexes under pressure , metal not as much . Anyways the size of those cleats are rediculous and serve little purpose other then esthetics .2 -

Well I'm trolling, and despite all the friendly teasing, I am sympathetic. I know this is the sort of thing that can drive people crazy, and I am by no means immune.ChaosWotan wrote: »I'm not trolling, just a bit pissed at my own stupidity, thinking that I could buy something blind from ESO and actually be satisfied, a bit like trusting a used car dealer.
The two paths to acceptance are exposure therapy or avoidance therapy. I recommend riding the Dwarven War Horse exclusively and excessively until you become desensitized. Ride it even when you'd rather walk. Sleep while riding. Fight while riding. Become one with your little pony.
If that fails, ride anything else and forget the Dwarven War Horse. Cross the street. Don't make eye contact. Deny you ever met. Go on like that until the pain eases, then try riding again.
That's about all I got, and now that my update download is done, it's time for me to log in and do something far more important than trolling the forums.
Trolling in-game chat.

Gedalya✭✭✭✭✭It's a white horse with golden armour, exactly as advertised... so the problem is what?
Yeah and if you had access to Beta you had an opportunity actually use it. I for one like it.1 -

I'm more used to the cleats being on trail horses. Had no idea they used them on racing horses. The cover on the front of the hoof didn't seem like it was molded to the hoof wall, but more like a shield in front. I miss working with horses. "Such is the nature of evil. Out there in the vast ignorance of the world, it festers and spreads. A shadow that grows in the dark. A sleepless malice as black as the oncoming wall of night. So it ever was, so will it always be. In time all foul things come forth." -Thranduil0 -

✭✭✭✭✭The horse looks awesome. Of course having a bunch of metal armor on it is going to make it look a little bulkier. It looks like a draft horse. I love it.
Considering how detailed it is, saying it's an "insult to buyers" is an insult.

lol Magic gets us through the details every time .
It's not an awful looking horse it just looks disproportionate to some smaller character models . Horse people in real life are very strange and flip out about the most trivial things to most other people . I get it because I was raised with horses . Equestrian schooled and taught every detail . Then when you show some cowboy a easier way to do something they go all Hee Haw on you and talk about rodeos or something equally off topic . So this post was very entertaining to me .1 -
ChaosWotan✭✭✭✭✭@Rohamad_Ali
Disproportional is the keyword. And you must love gold skirts too.
Btw, I was living in a very cold caravan on a horse farm in Yorkshire this winter. Got disconnected from Cyrodiil every 15 minutes though, because of poor wifi.1 -
ChaosWotan✭✭✭✭✭@Roovin
Yeah, it's called self-irony, smiling at my own idiocy, which you would have noticed if you read the thread. Now it's just amusing to read the comments piling on.
But designing that horse and selling it, as "deluxe", at that price, is still an insult to good taste.
@Shadow_Viper_vX
If you think aesthetics is a silly non-issue, then that's your choice.

✭✭✭✭She said she doesn't appreciate you talking trash about her behind her back and says she's going to move more slowly from now on, glitch out and deliberately get hung up on landscape features until you apologize.
My husband still hasn't been forgiven for the smart remarks he made about the flame breathing mount. It still glitches, runs off cliffs...you name it.Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis0
