I'm sure if you give people that option, half of them will run naked with some idiotic helmets on their heads in only brass pink boots. Tamriel will turn into a circus of freaks.

I'm more concern why the "hide shoulder" needs to be purchased through event tickets. The "hide helm" was just a game feature, you don't even need to pay gold for that.

Not good idea.

I'm pretty sure people said that about giving us the option to dye weapons too. "Everyone will be running around with bright pink weapons, it will kill immersion" Spoiler alert: That didn't happen.

And even if it happens this time, who cares? There is literally a Costume that is just a bathing towel, and people don't complain about that, or the fact that there's like, 3 different types of bikini's (These are actually rather tasteful).

Personally, I'd love the option to hide any Body armour. Partly because I like knowing I have options, but also some outfits just look better with no hand coverings, or shoes, or what have you. Barbarian characters happen to look great shirtless for instance.

Cause they don't want people running around with nothing on is why.

It seems like I am not the only one that wants this. Maybe the powers that be are waiting to put this in the crown store for a rainy day? I wonder if there is some sort of coding issue that makes this request impossible or improbable? At any rate, take my coins.

Yeah there was a bunch of comments about pink weapons ruining the game. And for a week or two after we were able to dye weapons there was a lot of goofy stuff then people settled back in. My thinking on this is some of my characters have had incredible body art done and would like to show it off.

Don’t play an MMO then.

I'm all for 'hide any part.' If we're going to have our collections menu filled with tattoos, the least they can do is give us a way to show them off.

What's the problem? It's not 'Lore Appropriate?' What, is there something preventing people from making fat Orcs in pink Bathers Towels? Or something that prevents people from using flashy Radiant Apex mounts?

I get the "I like the loooooore!" idea, but I'm also okay with other people in the world. And if I want to see the world without people expressing themselves, then I can go in at off hours or just go on PTS.

Now that it's coming with the next patch, I hope that the others can be inbound soon as well. I vote belts next, but I'd also love to see gloves and chests. And boots. And pants.

Besides, naked characters are lore appropriate. Have you seen the number of naked Nords in Vvardenfell?

I firmly feel that people overestimate the desire of other players to run around in "silly" outfits. Sure, you'll get a few people who do-thats par for the course. But the amount of people who do creative and interesting things by removing a gear piece or adding to it far outweighs them.

And in my opinion, if someone wants to make a silly character, so what? I get a good laugh out of most of those I see. Let them have their fun.

But with that being said, I've seen people make some really drop dead gorgeous or even heroic looking costumes by removing various pieces of gear from sight (Yes, even pants. Believe it or not, but there are those that can make fantastic outfits by removing the pants and utilizing tunics and other outfit pieces to great effect. )

I doubt that everyone is going to suddenly shriek Hallelujah and run around trouserless. In the first few days? Sure. You bet your pasted-on, standard issue black undergarments people will. But that will get old as people get used to the system, and it will begin to mellow out in time.

Full support for this. Let people get as creative or as silly as they want.

People can already just take off their gear while running around town. Nothing changes.

On pc with dressing room this is trivial, seen people in town with legerdemain clothing who is more common than in the underwear.
Now its an female npc at the harbor in Senchal who is in her underwear. It might well be an bug as newer seen others in the underwear unless it make sense like bathing or hand their cloth stolen.

Agreed. More choices is better. I am saddened that most of the motif styles hide whatever body markings/tattoos a character may have which is unseen by anyone else. Unless you’re an Argonian or Khajiit, then you cannot have a body marking and a tattooed at the same time, but that’s a different subject altogether.

I could agree with that. At the same time though, I don’t think it would be a big deal after the initial implementation.

I run a “naked Nord” character right now who just doesn’t use several slots, and so is gimped by a certain amount because of that choice. Soloing a Group Boss is about all we can achieve now, so we hope the addition of hidden shoulders will improve things.

So this is not about what characters will wear, but what they can do while wearing it.
