    As long as the cape isn't stapled to my character's butt, sure. I don't want a repeat of the Breton Hero Character's "cape".

    The developers have covered (#wordchoice) why there are no cloth physics in the game and why they cannot do so. The character models were all made with a very limited pool of "morph points" available, and that did not leave room for cloth physics.

    The game engine does not support separate physics on the player models. This is why robes and long coat-type armours/costumes are glued to the player's legs.

    A perfect example is the Breton Hero costume (compare promo footage with the in-game result).

    Yeah skyrim was limited aswell, but the Nightingale cape was actually not that bad.
    Definitely not as bad as the Breton hero armor.

    Well they have done a lot, cut off support for dx9 and ten I think as well as cut off windows 32 support. Because it limited them. Maybe now they could do something with them. But in a limited form. I'm sure the capes from Alpha might still be located within the data files and I imagine they have the means to add those in. They did not add them in because the game could not handle them at the time. But now without 32 support, it might just be possible to add them in.

    I honestly don't know anything about MMOs or game engines- but couldn't ZoS update the game to have capes when they update their game engine? Assuming it's within a few year? Hasn't WoW updated its graphics/physics throughout the past 10 years?

    @Savos_Saren yes Blizzard did that but you cant compare blizzard budget on WoW with ESO...looking as it is ESO sadly struggles to survive and with no $$$ I see no way they gona put time in remaking the game on a new engine...lets face it ESO is a cow that gets milked until its going to die...unless a miracle happens...I for one don't believe in miracles.

    ROFL.. That's adorable. You think "consoles" are the ones who are dragging this whole texture-mesh-mess down.
    I wonder if there are any other MMOs that Consoles have that allow Capes, have good physics, and run just fine.

    i thought the elven hereo costume has some dangle action between the legs? might be wrong tough
