One idea for a future QoL feature would be a toggle to hide all player cosmetics, including Skill Styles, Polymorphs, Mementos, and Mounts.

This would allow players to improve client-side performance, improve readability of skills, and reduce flashy visuals.

Maybe this could be implemented as a single toggle to hide everyone else's cosmetics, or implemented as a blacklist to hide cosmetics from individual people. It could also be implemented on a per-cosmetic basis, allowing players to hide troublesome cosmetics from everyone, rather than all cosmetics from troublesome people.

RuneScape implemented this very recently and would be a welcome change for ESO.

One added bit for the Vampire bite and this is a female-khajiit specific problem, I think. Females already have a very longstanding eyelid problem (they don't have them; just eyelashes that occasionally blink), but on character selection they look like they have pink-eye with one eye normal colored and the other with the vampire red. When their idle animation plays (I think mine uses Brassy Assassin, so it could be personality specific in addition to being race/gender specific), then it switches and the other eye looks vampire and the first goes back to normal. Just a minor and weird visual glitch in a world without any documented cases of conjunctivitis.

This is not the only longstanding vampire bug/visual pain point. Elves who contract vampirism in game have their eyes replaced with human eyes for some reason and dark skinned/furred/scaled characters get whitewashed. All three of these issues have been in game for a long time and I would really like to see them fixed. It was disappointing they weren't addressed with the vampirism overhaul back in Greymoor, especially since one of the main characters in the zone is a redguard vampire that actually looks the part.

Thank you for bringing this up and reminding me about these bugs. I often don't play my vampire characters lately so sometimes I forget about them.

Do you notice and feel positively impacted by the Player Experience Improvements?

Some changes are amazing, but some changes already impact me negatively. I will only mention what is relevant to an old player in general (and my own wish), because some improvements are only good for the newest players.

1.Account-wide Outfit Slots: it should have been like this from the start, so it's awesome and my characters were starving for many years for multiple outfit options I have 0 additional outfit slots at the moment and I still evaluate if it's safe to buy a few now. But I still understand that there needs to be some customer appreciation shown to people who've maxed out their outfit slots on more than 1 character already.

2.Backbar XP: it should have been like this from the start, so long overdue It's awesome anyway, it might still be useful for me personally in case we get more character slots.

3.Guild Repping: good option! Now, please allow empty guilds to have Tabard as well! I have my own empty guild in other game, it has cool guild logo and I represent it for roleplay reason I would like to do the same in ESO too.

4.Hide Armor Settings for all slots: simply amazing Human body is beautiful and nothing to be ashamed of. But now we also need the option to recolor underwear of our characters (and maybe even more underwear styles), more belts (which actually look like belts), maybe some necklaces and more options for shorts/mini-skirts/bra-style outfits

Male topless with pants variant:

Male topless with shorts/mini-skirt variant:

Male topless with long skirt variant:



Female variant with only top covered:

Female topless variant with shorts:

Female topless variant with skirt:



Some outfits with uneven flaps look really unfinished. Flap in the front (and even sometimes at the sides) can look nice, but the lack of flap on the back can look unfinished (and even weird, when you can see frontal flap from the back)...

Epic frontal view VS back view:

We will also need some legs outfit styles which are just flaps on the front and on the back, similar to the flaps in this one:

5.Increased Furnishing Limits and Home Recategorization: very welcome, but I will wait for increase of furniture and collectibles in Notable homes I want to display all my Undaunted trophies, all my assistants, many pets and mounts together. When it happens, I will finally justify getting Clan Mother Tadali house guest and place her in my house

6.Increased Transmute Crystal Cap: generous number bump, nice! I would prefer unlimited number, of course

7.Respec Skills & Attributes in the UI for Free: perfection! This will make experimenting with builds and helping the group in the best way I can so easy! I do not want any limits to this system.

8.Mounts-For-Gold: awesome idea, unfair and punishing implementation currently. All but 1 of those mounts were either sold for crowns, or were exclusive promotion reward for purchasing chapter at certain date :'(
The only new mount for gold which was never released before is this:



It is fancy, it costs the most appropriate gold sum of all other mounts (I would still make it 1 million gold at least), and it is exciting and equally new for every ESO player. It has perfect description as well, just the mount which was only ever available for gold.
It was not part of any old promotion or Collector's Edition, it was not offered for real money - nobody has any reason to be unhappy when they see this mount in stables!

And now look at this, just one example of many:





Bleakrock Snow Dog was in store just a 5 weeks ago for crowns, soon it will cost 50k gold in game... I really like the fur pattern, so the only reason I haven't bought that mount was the red saddle (looks really bad on black and white dog) Otherwise it would be another 3k crowns wasted, and I would have no compensation for it. Can you please recolor this mount (change the black fur part to light brown, for example, and make the saddle dark brown/black for perfection) and sell recolored dog for gold instead?

I own few other mounts which are offered for gold on PTS, so for me it's closer to 10k crowns already wasted. It's not ok to make people buy something, and then give away the same thing to everyone else - no matter how many time has passed
There is even special Nix-Ox mount from old Vvardenfell Chapter promotion - this mount was the reason I bought that chapter back then, and it was nice to still have such simple yet rare item while the chapter itself was made base-game... :'(
There are many Nix-Ox recolors, even fabricant variants - can you please make some simple Nix-Ox recolor and put it for gold instead? So that each player would have new Nix-Ox mount to spend their gold for.

Same about all other mounts: just make a little recolors to versions which will be sold at stable masters. Not a single player should have a reason to be sad when they see new feature like this added to the game.

The way it is on PTS already stopped me from buying more mounts on live servers. New flaming Vvardvark mount and pet are absolutely beautiful and spectacular (just like Hearthfire Cagouti was...), but nobody can give me guarantee that they won't appear in stables for a bit of gold later (just like Hearthfire Cagouti does on PTS...).

9.Vampire/Werewolf/Curse: I have my strict roleplay feelings about these (especially Vampirism), so I do not like when these curses/blessings become easier to get. Wild Bloodfiends and Werewolves appear more frequently and even during the day? It's really bad for immersion... Going on an adventure every night and trying to spot these rare spawns is always exciting and feels "correct".

10.Stackable Treasure Maps: I love collecting maps as part of my adventures, so this change is awesome.
Now if only each map always granted an appropriate Antiquity Lead! For example, I own Necrom chapter since it was released, but I still don't have any Mirror antiquity furnishing from treasure maps there

Any other points of feedback?

I would love more character slots, account-wide armory slots, removal of Justice system for Necromancers/Vampires/Werewolves, and option to use Dye station for changing hair style colors for our characters, please.
