Eso has been out for 5 yrs now. The art department has learned a lot in that time im sure.

I think it would be cool to let the team go back and make updated versions of the original 10-14 motif books. Then add them along side the originals (not replace them).

A "war torn" versions of the originals would also be nice. Showing them in a battle used state we have put them through in the last 5 yrs.

Finally I think it would be good to reintroduce the original red guard and orc motifs that were altered.

Again all of these along side the current vers, not replacing them.


Im sure the art team would appreciate the chance to get out of the tiny basement room zos has them trapped in forced to work on crown store items

    While there aren't exact updates, many of the racial motifs have gotten more recent looks that preserve much of the same spirit.

    Imperial - Order of the Hour
    Dunmer - Militant Ordinator, all of the House motifs
    Redguard - Ra Gada, Yokudan
    Orc - Trinimac, Malacath, Ancient Orc
    Argonian - Mazzatun, Elder Argonian, Deadwater
    Altmer - all of the Summerset ones
    Khajiit - Dro-m'Athra, presumably more to come with Elsweyr
    Daedric - Xivkyn, Dremora
    Primal/Barbaric - Dreadhorn, Bloodforge

    Bosmer, Nord, and Breton seem a little lacking, though I may have simply missed their updated armors.

    ZoS has previously stated they will not redesign art assets, especially motifs, due to the debacle when Redguard was redesigned.

    The game director said the policy is essentially carved in stone.

    Nice thought, though.

    he said they wont replace them, adding an updated version along side it is ok

    The original motifs look dated and the newest ones look like plastic toys.

    Mercenary style belongs to the imperials. It was released along with the gold coast and utilizes a laurel leaf.
