This game, and its code, is a prime example of what happens when you allow players on PC and PS4 to play on the same servers -- restrictions of one kind or another (including PS3 code that really cannot be easily changed) will crop up. It's why you still can't play Elder Scrolls Online on PC and hope to be connected to your friends on XBox.

SE could have divided players into realms by platform (PlayStation and PC) like other MMOs do, but they decided that all players should be able to enjoy the game in the same way, whether their friends played on PC or PlayStation. They make it work quite nicely most of the time. But it means that some code is now so deeply embedded in the game that a complete overhaul might as well result in a brand new MMO.

And that is not going to happen any time soon. Get used to it.
Yeah yeah "The code is so w/e it can't be done" said everyone in the history of MMOs ever and guess what? Companies have always found a way to make it work. If ideas stopped at "Well it can't be done!" then we'd never get any new features in this game.
