Does zos read polls asking for more wereforms

Argonianwerecroc212
I mean there is so many polls asking for more wereforms like werelion, werecrocodile, and werebears etc.. but they don't add them or respond to them.

    Just because "there are so many polls asking for them" does not mean ZOS has to make it happen or comment on it.
    They add or fix what they believe would be in the best in the best interest of the game or the fans.
    For example if everyone wanted a playable Dwemer race based on what the forums said it does not mean ZOS has to be like ok let's do it, it's much more complex then that, they have their vision for what's reasonable to have in the game, they can't add every single thing into ESO that may exist within the lore so they compromise and pick the most reasonable things so for example in this case of the "wereforms" they picked werewolf.
    Would kinda be crazy having a bunch of what would essentially the same type of thing available for players to pick especially in a MMO where there are a ton of variables.
    Kinda finding it hard to believe there are so many polls asking for them because I've never seen one.

    If they did different physical forms id be interested, its just werewolves and vampires are so cliche. Same thing with the warden ultimate, why is it in every fantasy MMORPG that the nature based magic character either transforms into a bear or has a bear companion. Its boring and over done, why not a lion ultimate? Or a wolf ultimate, or giant boar, Gorilla, dinosaur, leopard, some kind of mythical creatur, anything for that matter!

      Don't hold your breath OP, bare minimum is what they do best... and even that they manage to inundate with bugs or horrible low res.

      I literally lol'd

      But I don't think you went far enough. It also needs to provide instant dps dungeon queue pops, while permabanning fake tanks, rain down limited time event items like candy yet still have them retain high market value, while s****ng vma and perfect Black rose weapons, and sneezing Transmute crystals. Only with such a wondrous mount will forumgoers be happy.

      It would be epic.....EPIC if they added more forms into the game.

      But how would you do it?

      The more immersive would be to create different skill lines.....but the headache of balance, where that attention is needed on already existing skills would be a problem I think..

      Or you could have it as a skin, where all the animations and sounds are adapted to the new form...Werelion, Werebat...etc. But then would that be a crown only thing?

      Its not impossible but a difficult one to implement straight away. Zos probly has the next few years of content planned out and this might be already on the list or on the back burner...

      I do think it will come at some point...just a case of when.

      My flying weremount will be a “subscriber since beta only” perk, and will permanently mark people who kill me in pvp with an “Exploiter” title. Everyone I kill will get a “Scrub” title.

      Its name will be “Cliche AF”

      Zos reads the forums but they put forum polls in here for entertainment value. They realize they offer not statistical meaning.

      Beyond that, Zos does not accept all ideas and there is no real benefit for adding different appearances. Clearly they are not going to design another were line because that would be more trouble that any benefit they could gain.

      Zos would likely not even sell a skin to change ones WW appearance as that would require more complicated coding than the skin could return in sales.

      I don't recall seeing "so many polls" on this subject, but if there have been some they were probably rendered useless to the developers and players alike as 99% of polls on this forum are by the overtly biased setting of the options designed to support the poll creator's own opinion.

      Forums are barely representative of the playerbase. A self-selected tiny minority. Polls that rarely achieve 1,000 votes are statistically insignificant and barely worth bothering about.

      They’re still fun and all that, but nothing more than that.

      I think it's a missed opportunity since beta tbh. I did want race-based were transformations back then, something like Were-lion for Khajiit, Were-crocodile for Argonian, Were-bear for Nord, Werewolf for Breton/Imperial maybe, Were-boar for Orc, etc. Only problem is that there's not enough variants to match each of the playable races, and the were-vultures would be hard to implement. The game technically has Were-bats but they are all enemy NPCs.

      Its better to be persistent on feedback than to just accept the trash situation that is current ww.
      the community has left soo much evidence for other players to decide not to be werewolf, or otherwise.
      the players care about the game more than the devs, the only reason to post in these feedback threads is for other players to see.

      the devs dont care.

      Just because it's asked for, does not mean the devs should do it.

      Is there any precedent in the lore for other wereforms? Werecrocodile and some of the others seem kinda stupid
