I couldn't care less. This is Beth's vision.

Xbox maybe, but not ps3 we could have two-piece on demon's souls.
but when I played dark souls on my 360 it wasn't two-piece armor anymore.

Then I hope you at least care that more and more options and customizations are being taken away in favor of "streamlining"... Apathy will only ensure the next title has even LESS customization. Before we know it, all outfits and armor will be one piece.

I don't believe for ONE moment that clothing was made to be one piece because of the number of NPCs in cities. Please. The cities in this game are half that of Oblivion's. Also, it's 2012. Such a thing should not be a concern in a game these days. Except the game was made for six-year old systems first and PC last, so there you have it. Well, at least in the Creation Kit you can make clothing for specific body parts...can't wait for a complete overhaul that will make this game the way it should have been.

i played morrowind, oblivion and now skyrim. we always got less that the previous game...so i think tes 6 will be "we make the world, you modders make everything else"
btw, i don't care about clothes and armors, this way is simple for modders to create good renders and textures...clothes don't make an rpg a true rpg

Quality over quantity.

Not if you play with a female character, you can't

for obvious reasons i think LOL xD

EDIT:
btw i remember of people around the net, arguing because in oblivion the pauldron weren't a separeted part of the cuirass like in morowind
this is the same stupid story (IMHO)

Fixed.

Absolutely agree. Would like to be able to layer them, too.

This. QFT.

Always mattered to me. Still matters. And they definitely didn't give me everything I want, or even close.

With the current inventory system (SkyUI is better, but not quite perfect), it would be a mess to have all of those different items. I think that's why they disappeared with Oblivion. They got rid of the classic drag and drop UI and went for something more streamlined. I prefer the streamlined UI better than the old one, but I would really like a UI like SkyUI's or Oblivion's that puts a list of all of the things you currently have equipped on the right side of the screen... or perhaps just move the things you're wearing to the top of the list.

This applies to the combination of legs/chest. Beth said that the combo would allow for a lot more options for armor. I'm not sure if that's true.

Even if they took off the ability to enchant clothing, it would be so nice to have Pants (or skirts/dresses), Shirts, Belts and Robes. I mean, it's cold up there, can't a person put a robe on over their armor?

Renee Gade, you can still mix armor. OP was referring to clothing, not armor. You can have an Ebony Helmet with Glass armor for example.

Yes...but you can't have Elven legs with a Dwarven chest, or cloth pants with leather chest.

That's what we're looking for.

...there's a mod for that...

I'd like to see the seperated clothing come back. If it doesn't tho, so be it.

Do have a link to it?

Textures looking better and showing as they should is a lot better than mismatched armor in my book. They made it this way for a reason.

I would rather have mismatched. I use to frequently have a character that wore regular clothes with a leather chest piece.

this is one of them: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=13486

Thanks, I like cloaks, though I was also hoping for robes that could be worn over armor, as in Morrowind.

Although with the Savior's Hide, she can go bottomless.
