    So last PvP mount was recolour. New PvP mount is almost identical to a mount in game already. I would have to look but bed mount looks close to old bed. That is just stuff I noticed. Sure they have other reused assets I am missing.

    They've been reusing existing models since 1.0. Why stop now?

    This is not even a recolor, though.

    It's an alternate version of the Loporrit supporter units hanging around Bestways. You have the hovering ones that the tribe rewarded, and then there's this version that walks and has lopsided arms.

    ESO: We heard you like Indrik mounts, so here are some more Indrik mounts in 10 different colors! Oh, you wanted to collect a mount in a single event? That's not possible.

    ESO is king of reused assets. It's also king of putting special mounts in loot boxes you have to spend $600 to "win". lol

    Like I'm by all means defending 14 reusing assets but when others do it way way more blatantly i cant help but laugh at people who are annoyed with it.

    Like a certain MMO that just had a raid come out where the most unique models (1 or 2) of the bunch were all reskins while the rest were all literally reused NPC models/recolors.

    Funny you should mention that. I debated about typing how the 1.0 team got shit on for copy/pasting and reusing too many assets. Truthfully while they have always brought stuff back, this expansion feels the worst. It could just be huge amount of time between patches, servers being extra quiet, or a combination of other things.
