"Fog of War" Effect & Draw Distance

Has there been any discussion about whether this is going to be removed or whether we'll be allowed to drastically increase our view distance in the future? What comes to mind automatically is last gen consoles & low performing PCs, but if it's a menu option, I don't see the problem. Thoughts?

    There were ways to disable the fog effect near launch and people saw that beyond the regular fog amount, the assets are very low res and low quality at the map edges. They'd need to revamp those if they allowed a greater draw distance.

    Exploits suck. Don't blame just the game, blame the players abusing them!

    -Playing since July 2013, back when we had a killspam channel in Cyrodiil and the lands of Tamriel were roamed by dinosaurs.
