Don't get me wrong, I love the customization options but this is just silly.

    We already have much more ridiculous skins in this game, why this one is worse in your opinion?

    Maybe because it's literally glitter? I know glitter sells but.... this crown crate is literally pure glitter :D

    Didn't say it was necessarily. I just haven't played in awhile and saw the latest.

    And also, I'm fine if people want these skins. I just think this one is over the top but to each their own.

    Make a character named "Nebula" and stand in your Nebula furnishing with this skin on.

    Well, I guess it will look good on some characters that are purely comical (like big orc in pink dress, most popular out of not-so-immersive looks).

    Wait, pink dress? I thought big Orc males preferred to wear white wedding dresses?

    Depends on cultural preferences, mine orc tank sometimes wear blue bikini when he wants to feel the freedom during the dungeon run

    I think this skin is beautiful, personally. I'm just thrilled to have an actual ATTRACTIVE skin and not one with ugly wrinkles like zos is so fond of giving (I hate almost all skins in the game for that reason... they ruin the character's face and body). As for if you find it immersion breaking... that ship has sailed a long time ago. Every batch of crown crates has something flashy in it.

    To me this is one of the tamer ones compared to some of the other skins, but to each their own.

    To me this crazier

    What about Void Pathosis that doesn't cover the chest? You simply can't use it wearing a dress or something more wide open because it'll look ridiculous.

    Or then the fact you can't see your face with Sunspire Fire-Ice and/or Crystalfrost.

    Or even that pretty much all "creepy" skins (bloodfiend (?), dremora, spiderkith...) make your character get 50 years older in a click.

    I miss high-quality skins like dro-m'Athra and Meridian Purified...

    I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).

    While I agree, I want the black glitter to live out my fantasy of having a Khajiit be black and rolled in glitter.

    I would rather have some costume, style or dye options for sparkles and not my character themselves nor the mount. I agree that most of the skins in the game are over-the-top or ugly or both IMHO. I like most of what I use to look like it belongs in the world of Tamriel — and not as a result of a planemeld or something! :tongue:

    I just want basic skins that change the colour with no face markings.

    On the flip side…glowing skins would be ace…like moon kissed or something like that :)

    Skins in ESO were always ridiculous. I don't know how you can say this one is silly without mentioning all the other weird nonsensical skins that came before.
    And don't get me started on mount skins...

    Might as well start adding lolis and wings at this point.

    I think they just crank out so much stuff...it's hard to keep the quality.

    I just wish they would come up with radiant Apex mounts that didn't look like Disco Balls
