Chest pieces without the hip flaps

I would also vote for:
"shoulders that dont float"
"chestpieces that dont bloat your upper body"
"chestpieces that dont rip out your shoulders" (fanglair light/medium)
"hide shoulder option"
"shorter mini skirts" (mazzatun is close tho)
"boots w/o kneecaps" (trinimac heavy)
"sth that looks like a real plate armor" (if breton had cool boots/legs)
"fur parts that can be colored" (barbaric)

I'll stop before getting carried away.

Stylish, open toed footwear

I want better shoe options! Something sharp, darl and with bit of curry excellent. Then again not sure fashion is so hard, but shoes is the dream.

P.S wish hip flaps were a different option to pick from.

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

theres so many good looking chest piece on the game, the hip flaps ruined them all

TheShadowScout · May 2018

Leggings or skirts that show more of your legs

Gimme the kilts, darnit, my drunk nord warden wants to go scotsman!

But seriously, can we haz "all of the above"?

The more options the better... heck, I am on record saying I wished there were an option to have "summer style" versions of gear that reduced damage resistance for less coverage (short skirts, open strap sandals and gloves, sleeveless chestpieces), yet had and advantage in "hot" regions (or rather, everything else having an drawback, like a stamina&magicka recovery penalty because "heatstroke") and a "winter style" version with full DR and coverage, that has an advantage in "cold" regions (or rather, everything else has a drawback, like constant health drain due to "freezing")

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

Also, more skirts for light armour. So you can mix+match tops and bottoms to make your own "robes".

TelvanniWizard · May 2018

Chainmail.

Vyle_Byte · May 2018

All of the above would be my pick.

I've been spending an awful lot of time messing with outfits lately and i think my biggest complaint is shoulders. Shoulders are the bane of my existence while making outfits. Of all the shoulders I know, which is almost all of them, there are only a few that don't leave a stupidly huge gap. Its quite annoying because some of them have really nice design but will never get used.

Also, they need to take the skirts of all the robes and make them a part of pants. There just plain aren't enough skirts and all they'd have to do is cut off the top, would really open up more customization.

Something like this...

Or at least some crowned helmets.

ayu_fever · May 2018

ridiculously revealing bikini armors would be nice.
also, we can hide helmets but i would also like to be able to “hide” other armor slots.
hide shoulders would be great since it is the hardest one to get just right.
hide shoes would be nice on some outfits and costumes.

You seem to be wanting less coverage. I would actually like to see more coverage. In terms of 'realism' and I realize this is a fantasy, but a jazzersize outfit is not armor and will never look like armor. In that line of thinking I would like to see the Nedic helm for instance at the very least have chain hanging down to protect the throat/neck. It drives me nuts that you would have a heavy armor like Nedic or Breton and not cover the neck, one of the most important vitals and targets with a sword. The hip things are fine by I like when there is protection in front of the groin, this is reasonable as well because you have major arteries running up the legs (which would be pumping even more vigorously in combat) and the groin. In fact the groin was often how Knights were dealt with, as this area often had the least protection (as well as under the arms). The joints were weak points that would normally not be targets due to the effectiveness of all those plates. I like the lighter armors like the Segmentata and such but I really would like to see some greater realism considerations for the armors. In my view armors like Breton and Nedic would look much better by covering up the neck than by leaving them exposed.

Tabbycat · May 2018

More stuff like the Abah's light armor. Such a nice set. And not ruined by flappy parts.

I wonder if doing big/full neck armor leads to bad clipping. Or making them so bulky that they look ridiculous.

(heh. that reminds me of some of the silly Giant Spiked Shoulders that I got on my Hunter in WoW. She'd stab herself in the head with foot-long spikes whenever she did an emote that raised her arms to far. Foot-long flaming spikes.

)

Seriously, the hip flaps have GOT to go.

Donari · May 2018

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

They've made a few chest pieces without the flaps, so it can be done. And some flaps cling more closely to the legs and thus look more reasonable. But putting an outfit together is an exercise in rejecting almost every chest piece in the game due to hip flaps that float ridiculously out or just sucking it up and mentally editing out the flaps.

MajesticHaruki · May 2018

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

I want them to surpass the engine limitations and give us CAPES.

Zardayne · May 2018

More fur!

Tyrobag · May 2018

This is why we don't let people like you design the game, it would turn into one of those weird Japanese *** games within a month... -_-

SirMewser · May 2018

Bondage and pure leathered.

Vaoh · May 2018

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

There really should be an option to toggle on/off hip flaps.

phaneub17_ESO · May 2018

Leggings or skirts that show more of your legs

Japanese games are more cutesy and conservative, its the Korean ones that really let things fly. I just want things a little more natural exposure, is that too much to ask?

ArchMikem · May 2018

Both my mains are wearing Mazzatun legs for the skirts. It'd be perfect if I could combine those with the Lizardly Costume top. Or at least the light Mazzatun Chest without the ugly bird skull.

SydneyGrey · May 2018

Helms with less head coverage like face plates or circlets

Helms that don't cover the face. I want to see my character's face.
My 2nd choice is smaller shoulders that don't stick out.

Nemesis7884 · May 2018

Helms with less head coverage like face plates or circlets

i do like the half-long coats like mercenary or ebony

Riddari · May 2018

More plated armor that's more functional than stylish. Also the dawnguard armor as it currently should exist in this era. Enough evil stuff I want something that adequately represents the divines.

Earrindo · May 2018

Chest pieces without the hip flaps

More sleeveless and revealing options for males that don't look like they just got dragged out of a swamp.

A long open coat look with no shirt underneath

Shoulders that are more like armlets, metal bands wrapped around the top of the bicep

NO MORE HIP FLAPS (I know it's been said, and recent motifs seem to be doing better, but dang if they aren't awful)

More cuffed boots/gloves (yokudan light boots, the sapiarch boots, the tsaesci light gloves)

Hide shoulders/chests/gloves/belt/boots/pants

Head items that are more like collars or mantles.
Eg; thrown back hoods, fur mantles, gorgets, etc

Shoulders that are more like short capes/wrapped cloth mantles. Like yokudan light, but fabric to ease the transition of helm to shoulder, not a massive bloody gap between neck/mantle/shoulder

Less massive flies on the pants

More pants that flare at the bottom (dunmer, Nord, and orc light pants)

More shoes that are just on the feet (soul shriven light feet) that aren't just sandals

More long half skirts (celestial light legs are really it)

A skirt option a la the jerkin option with light armor. Pants or skirts ( a skirt from the ebony light chest would be amazing.)

More compatibility between motifs, with shoulders/belts adjusting to fit better ( both these items tend to float horribly on chests from different sets.)

That's just off the top of my head though.

Nyladreas · May 2018

No flaps plox. I hate most motifs cause of them

Banana · May 2018

More skin

You will love summerset, yes they are medium / heavy but its no issue with armor styles.

Stinkyremy · May 2018

More helms that show the eyes.
It's a shame order of the hour doesn't show your eyes, it looks like a mix of an ancient greek and roman helmet.
I am using trinimac specifically for that atm.
