VIERA AND HROTHGAR COMPLAINT MEGATHREAD

[Pip_Chick]

Have there been any major issues with races like Argonian or Khajit in ESO?

Like, legit question here. I haven't played ESO. Have they ever had major features missing, poor customization, even poorer representation, features being removed for the sake of new ones existing, lack of community awareness from their devs when it comes to feedback on their races...?

Because I'm just going off of my experiences with Skyrim and Oblivion a fairer comparison is the MMO itself. Assuming it's even made by Bethesda to begin with, that is.

I don't know very much about ESO, but I did watch an extensive lore video about Khajit, half an hour in length. Their story is so detailed and interesting, it's insane! Far better than what Bozja and the 2 drunk scholars ever did for Hrothgar. It extended from their origin, leadership and clans to their fur markings and their significance! If I didn't know better I would have said they were a real race, just from how much history and lore we get on them. Kinda made me want to install ESO and try it myself, but sadly my wallet does not approve!

There are several hairstyles and accessories that Khajiit and Argonian can't use, but that's compared to scores that they can. A big matter of contention is the Khajiit breeds available to players. There is only one and players can't play the rest because the character models are too wonky. Which is true in some cases, but half of the breeds are very humanoid.

Both Khajit and Argonians have been playable since the first elder scrolls game (Arena), and have a ton of lore behind them. Viera and Hrothgar have nothing compared to them, it's not even close. THAT said, they know of the struggle to get appropriate armor/gear. I remember one game didn't even let you wear shoes lol. In eso, Argonians have hat issues as well, with the horns simply being hidden, but you CAN wear them.

They just have unique hairstyles that no other races can wear and they can’t wear from other races either generally. But helmets work, plenty of npcs too, I never felt they were limited, just different.

[Zebraoracle]

At this point, might as well. Bethesda would be proud.

We just need things to not function and for the game to crash every ten minutes, and we have a solid Elder Scrolls entry.

Hahahahahahahaha

Yeah, these races get custom racial wigs, as far as I am aware. I know more than a few here would have been happy to receive the racial specific hair for viera and hrothgar

Yeah I was hoping for more hair in general as well, racial specific or not so I cant wait for 6.3!

I was under the impression that was the original idea, and the compromise for not being able to use headgear at all. It's been claimed to have been a mistranslation but honestly it feels more like they just silently dropped it.

Probably too much work.

Probably too much work.

Which is too bad, cause personally, I would have liked to get more personalised options of hairstyles for these races. But then again, I would like to be able to use all Hrothgar hairstyles regardless of the face that I am using. At the moment each face comes with 5, but realistically 3 hairstyles cause the other 2 are the normal ones with the addition of braids... :/

Honestly, I can't wait to see if Hrothgar get anything in 6.3, since they didn't show anything am staying pessimistic. And if they do, how would they look.
What Hairstyles are supposed to come next? The ones Viera got in 6.1 or 6.2?
