Idea obout variable Graphic-Styles, pls diskuss!

Post » Wed May 08, 2013 8:12 am

A little wish to the software-developers:

Why don't you put a feature into the game, which allows the player to select the whole graphics-style of the game?

What I mean is, whoever played The Elder Scrolls from the beginning (my first was Daggerfall) would probably enjoy playing a MMORPG with the old graphic style.

An option to select the whole look of the game in style of the different Elder Scrolls Games.

"What do I want to play today? Daggerfall? Morrowind? Oblivion? or the ol' Skyrim-Style again?"

I would love it!

Thanks for reading,

Calle

afaik it was said there will be an API for UI-Mods

in English:
it should be possible for the community to create their very own User Interfaces (for example Daggerfall/Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim themed)

ZOS would have to re create every single model, texture, animation and whatever else in the game if they wanted to have some kind of option to change the graphics style. You can't do it by changing shaders or adding some filter over it. And no they can't take the assets from the older games either because of legal reasons.

If you don't want the graphic team(and maybe some other guys too, you might not be able to get the morrowind or daggerfall look with modern graphics engines) to spend 5 times more to make graphics style settings then this is pretty much impossible.
