New Year's Wishlist! Name 2 things you want that could NEVER happen

VerboseQuips · December 2021

Here are my current two. (Might add some later if I think of more).

1. Underwater exploration

I'd really love to be able to see what's down there. It'd be a unique opportunity to discover the Dreughs' Castles of Glass and Coral (which have drawn my fascination ever since I read about them in Vivec's lessons), or the mysterious undersea kingdom of Ul'vor-Kus. It is, alas, most likely to never happen as the Devs have said already underwater exploration would require rebuilding the game engine.

2. A II-version of the base-game dungeons which still don't have one.

Most likely to not happen as the I-II format for vanilla dungeons seems to be discontinued in favor of the DLC dungeons. But it irks me terribly that some do have a II-version while others do not. Also, their stories are obviously not closed yet, even when counting the continuation of some storylines in DLC dungeons.

All the Crown packs being about 60% cheaper permanently.

Just to put it in perspective the 21000 crown pack in AU when not on sale costs $184.95, reducing that by 60% would bring it down to $73.98

Even the 3000 crown pack is $29.95, reducing that by 60% would bring it down to $11.98

To me that feels much more reasonable to purchase a currency that can only be used in game.

Those with the bordering on stupid levels of disposable income would continue to spend it, but those who are less likely to buy the current crown packs would be more willing at least in my opinion.

Sylvermynx · December 2021

1. WoW-type combat pets that hold aggro like in that game;

2. Access to cat, wolf, and bird skins for warden bears.

Ashryn · December 2021

Have a new Chapter dedicated to Wood Elves!

Ashryn · December 2021

Forgot my 2nd one...

Change my warden bear for a wolf!

Rudrani · December 2021

1. Opt-in Vet Overland with desirable loot
2. Justice system that incorperates PvP against criminals.

Elsonso · December 2021

1. Housing instances where you could see the players outside of the house (even if they cannot see you) to give the world more life when in the house.
2. Improved character animations. Hair and cloth physics, for starters, but also improved interactions with the world. Automatically climb over low obstacles without jumping. Climbing animations when the character is climbing a steep grade, rather than bunny hopping to the top. Movement animations that reflect the environment the character is moving through. I'd like the character to feel like they are part of the world, not just passing through it.

BloodyStigmata · December 2021

1. Base-game and early DLC zones re-worked graphically and difficulty-wise, with more rewards/content.
2. Stable servers.

MentalxHammer · December 2021

Ranked instanced PvP arenas, 1v1, 2v2, & 3v3

PvP_Exploiter · December 2021

1. Good Cyrodiil performance
2. Group duels / enhanced dueling system, maybe limited to PoHs.

SickleCider · December 2021

1. Skins for combat pets. I'd rather have my MagSorc summoning animal type pets ala the conjuration skill line. Anyone remember "summon familiar" and "summon flaming familiar" from Skyrim? That could easily replace the horrible little scamp.

2. I'd like a riding skill line. All of the riding perks are scattered all over the map--assault, dark brotherhood, various cp's, stable master training. Could add in a few new perks too.

2.5 Animate horse manes again.

That was my two, I guess.

DreamyLu · December 2021

- Resources sharing (waiting time before respawn only for the player who just harvested, but still appearing for a different player just arriving at the node).
- Most used addons integrated into game content, either as features like trading, or as on/off options like harvest map (optional support).

Minyassa · December 2021

Netch mounts!

Better decorating privileges, allowing those designated as decorators to actually place furniture.

No more limited time sales! Everything goes in the Crown store for months and gets cycled out like the regular stuff!

Lilmothiit player race.

Were-shark player race.

Replace all bear models with dinosaurs.

And my number one crazy wish for ZOS... customer support TELEPHONE ACCESS. No more of this cold distant email business, let us talk to real humans like in the olden days!

First, please read the title of the post if you're about to come and throw shade and negativity - the entire point of this post is to "dream"... things that you'd love to see in ESO, that you know simply would never happen (for whatever reason that may be)... now, I'm not talking "zero lag", because I still have hopes ... or asking for "no bots" because I still have faith... however waining both of those things are... so lets go for unadulterated wishes and dreams that Zenimax simply cannot, or would not, ever fulfill...

Here are my 2... to get the ball rolling and to start you getting creative.

1. Pure PVE version of Cyrodiil

A giant scale raid... like 100-200 people all fighting for the same side to defeat the NPC empire. Not just have NPCs defending keeps, but have them sieging keeps too. A new style currency (not Alliance Points, but something similar). All the fun of PVP and sieging castles etc, but without the toxicity of others ganking/griefing etc!! There could be time limits on it, where individuals and the team as a whole have a score (just like the real campaigns).. The possibilities are seemingly endless!!

2. Play the "Bad Guys"

Okay, I know you can roleplay this already... but what if your entire purpose was to not just "clear" a dungeon, but to save it from being cleared??? It could almost be PVP... you get to be the Dremora, Daedroths... even your favorite dungeon/trial bosses!! You get to control Mehrunes Dagon and swat those pesky little Khajiit in their smug mugs!! Or it could even be as simple as still working the same way now, but getting to play a Dremora race, or getting to pledge to the Waking Flame or Dro-Mathra (instead of The Fighter's Guild/Mages Guild). Embrace dark powers instead of skills like the fuzzy warm Dawnbreakers etc..

Okay.. so... what's your wishlists look like?

For your first, you already have it. Cyrodiil pop is not halved, it's like from 75% to 400% less than used to be. So you already have PVE Cyrodiil. You can call up your mates and RP things like giant fights, taking all the doors npcs down and such.

Uvi_AUT · December 2021

Reduce the disparity between bad DPS and Top DPS from about 1000% (10k vs 100k) to about 50-100% like in every other mmo.
That would make the balance of difficulty in the game less ridiculous.

DarrowLykos · December 2021

1. Having Cadwell as a companion so it always feels like I'm in my own ESO version of Monty Python.

2. Coconuts so we can gallop around in style

Chaos2088 · December 2021

-Free lag cryo

-Flying dragon mounts

Mrtoobyy · December 2021

1. Rework of animations

2.Revert back to previous patches for the sake of a better PVP.

rexagamemnon · December 2021

1)NPC romance options with either player created spouses or npc spouse options like TESV:Skyrim
2A)Akavir Zone
2B) server transfers, with all crownstore purchased items being gamertag/eso account wide, not just to one server. If i bought something in crown store, why the Fudge not is it not available on the NA server just because it was purchased on EU server. That is BS and no acceptable excuse

Braddec · December 2021

1) Actual Flying mounts with actual aerial monsters to knock us out of the sky.
2) underwater adventures
3) player craftable ships/boats - could be a new crafting class, shipwrights. (could also include craftable siege machines to install on boats or use in cyrodill)
4) ship to ship combat where boats would sink when they lost all their hps and survivors in the water have random chance to be eaten by slaughter fish/sharks
5) diplomacy system like they had in Vanguard, where you could influence cities for certain crafting buffs, or influence merchants for better returns on sale items, or influence guards to let you go when you get caught red handed, etc.

Ronin37 · December 2021

Harder overland and better spell effects

driosketch · December 2021

1) Unlimited furnishing in houses

2) Eliminate crowncrates, limited time on offerings.

Nord_Raseri · December 2021

I wish for the animal skill line of warden to be tied to race. Example: Dark elves keep it as is except ulti becomes guar or kagouti. Nord gets wolves in place of beetles, hawk in place of both cliffracer and flying squid, bear stays. Orc gets durzog in place of beetles, maybe echelette in place of squid and echetere in place of bear. And so on. Just find it weird all wardens from every land use mostly animals from morrowind.

Wish 2: Barbarian class/skill line. Make more use of weapons; Pommel smash, headbutt, get buffs (Major brutallity, savagery, resolve, and berzerk) from eating something or just inherent training vs from magic.

of course I'd rather wish for no lag, no skill delay, no positional desync, and no crashes...

peacenote · December 2021

1- First thing that crossed my mind was that I would really like to see another re-work of vampire that takes into account all of the excellent player feedback... for me in particular I would like to see it so there is a benefit for healers to be vampires and tanks to be werewolves. Included in this should also be a fix so all body markings work better with vampirism and all the different stages/looks can be hidden or selected. For example if I like how stage two looks, I would like to magically stay with that look. It makes no sense to me that people can white out their eyes or look like their skin is on fire but we can't enjoy all of the vampire stages... it's just a game. It made sense in early ESO but at this point we might as well let people look how they want. Otherwise it is just wasted art if no one uses those vampire stages. Perhaps this could be done with new quests and/or leveling... something only mature vampires could do.

2- Furnishing bag that works like the craft bag. That or a magical talisman you could obtain which allows you to see all furniture you own no matter where it is, with a location indicator, and then you can pull furniture from one house you own to another to better leverage houses as storage units.
--Also related to housing, I wish I could allow my friends to TRULY edit my homes with me, especially including the ability to move and reset dummies. It should be its own permission level.

I truly doubt we will ever see either of these things happen.

Something that I really want that I feel could happen is the ability to dye hair.

Dragonlord573 · December 2021

1. Make Ancient/Ancestral motifs not be locked behind leads. It's frustrating opening several treasure chests to never get a lead for them. Worse still when you look at the prices of the motifs. Ancestral Akaviri has always been between 100k-200k since it came out. Ancient Daedric? 600k for chests. Either make it that treasure maps guarantee a lead, or make them a daily quest reward.

2. Hide all armor options. Lemme hide each part not just the helmet.

RPGplayer13579 · December 2021

1. A point advisor for the champion system similar to our skill point advisor. Which buffs help which attacks? What's the difference between a direct damage attack and a single target attack? Which skills fall into those categories?

2. A questline that has the end result of turning one of your houses into a proper home with family or a true guild hall that is modeled after one of the guilds you can join such as fighters, mages, thieves, etc....

jedtb16_ESO · December 2021

world peace and free electricity.

Arafyn · December 2021

Permenantly kill off Bastion

starkerealm · December 2021

Spellcrafting.

An Artificer class focused on repurposing Dwemer gear.

aurorable · December 2021

1. More furnishing slots for all houses. Even the tiny free inns should have slots of at least 100+

2. Furnishing bag. It sucks having to turn some of my houses into storage homes.
