Daedric Armor looks very ugly in ESO

On top of that some of the armor they redesigned does not look as good as before 1.6, at least for me.  Was kind of angry when I logged in and my characters armor did not look as bad ass as before like the red guard helmet and leggings for example.  But yea, I dont know how they manage to fuck up the design of one of the most bad ass armor in ES series.

    The motif in the trailer is Xyvkin aka Imperial Daedric. It'll be coming out in a future patch.

     

    But I agree the current Daedric looks retarded.

    It is kind of reminiscent of the Centurion look from the original Battlestar Galactica image

    Looks like metal spray paint on plastic.  Needs a plastic sword to complete the look.

    It doesn't look like plate armor for sure,looks more like some pieces draped over leggings lol.It definitely could use some color.

    Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

    Both pictures are completely unappealing to me.

    In ESO environment seems good but look of characters and their animations are terrible.

    I'll become concerned when we're allowed to play as Daedric faction. Until then....

    All their armour looks plastic and painted on

    I have an old PC about 5 years old with a Nvdia Geforce 580 GTX. May be it looks better on  better systems but everything I wear looks like that.

    The landscape in Teso looks awesome

     

    The Characters , faces , bodies and Armor types look terrible to me. 

    honestly i think they have the wrong designer for character designs.

     

    Only some Robes are acceptable, they look as if they were made by another designer.

     

    The Armor in the picture left looks good but the ingame design is a joke compared to it

    Looks like they farmed out armor design to Korea.

    Must be a personal preference thing, I like the way the armors look in TESO.

    No signature, I don't have a pen

    Both armors look pretty useless in a real fight. 

    I would love to see someone making a few replicas of MMO armors and let the designers of them do a mock battle wearing them. Some of the stuff is really useless.

    Then again it is still better than TERAs female "armors".

    And yes, if the thing would be useless in a real fight they could at least look way cooler as the minimum requirement.

    Daedric armor has always looked awful. I don't know why you're surprised they kept up the streak in ESO.

    Daedric armor in Skyrim was pretty amazing! However I guess the polycount would kill Cyrodiil :) One thing I found out about the armors in ESO (and not only ESO) is that most of them look much better without helm... For whatever reason.

    Barbaric armor looks the best in the game imho.  I run fully crafted medium Barbaric with 2 daggers of Barbaric as well.  It looks more evil than Daedric :)

    I'm not a fan of the Daedric armor, but i'm a big fan of the weapons.  Some of the weapon styles look fantastic.  I run with Daedric swords and a bow.

    Kill it with fire! That armor makes me sad.

    But seriously the character models and textures on the characters model look very good. Almost as good as a highly modded Skyrim. How did they manage get that right but then mess up on animations and armors. While TES series has never had great animations (at least until modders did their thing), they've always had what I felt were good looking vanilla armors.

    In War - Victory.
    In Peace - Vigilance.
    In Death - Sacrifice.

    Yes, Daedric armor looks bad. It the kind of armor that looks like it will hurt you more than it will protect you in a fight. Perfect for daedric masochism.

    Not in Skyrim in my opinion.  Someone even made a mod for the ESO Cinematic Daedric Armor for Skyrim and that looks even more awesome to me.

    Thats the pic of the mod in skyrim.  This is the imperial daedric armor from ESO and I hope players will get it sooner or later in ESO.  graphics wont look as good but as long as the design looks like that, then I am happy.

    So, not defending that at all, but, if you think thats ugly, go check out some screenshots of wildstar armor.  You'll need a barg bucket handy.  I promise.

    Its the Blizzard school of art design, what do you expect.
