I agree, there should be transmog in the game, I’m lvl 15 and I still look like a peasant. Once I reach lvl 21 I want to wear the Cerim armor only for its looks, but I’m certain I’ll have better gear stats wise. So transmog for me is a good option to change how you look any time you want
Exactly. Honestly, I wasn’t a big transmog fan until they added it to Horizon Forbidden West, but now I’m always going to want it in a game. There’s basically no downside. It’s just a win for everyone.
Just a (probably useless) sidenote, “transmog” is a term specific to WoW, and also didn’t even exist there during that game’s most popular era. Every game seems to have a different name for it (e.g. Monster Hunter World calls it “layers”, Final Fanasy XIV calls it “glamours”, LoTRO used “wardrobe”), so for your titles and descriptions when asking for this sort of thing it might help (clarity-wise) to use more generic terms for cosmetic appearance options when describing what you want.
On topic, I do like when games provide this feature.
Well, cosmetics are more skins outside the ones from gear, they are usually sold/attainable seperately. Whilst transmog means transmogrification, where you have a set of gear on you but you use another gear just for aesthetics. But to each their own. Overall, yes, call it what you may, I just wanna look cool without the downsides of stats.
I see. I guess I’ve always understood transmog to be the more general term. What term would you prefer to see?
I don’t have a preference for a particular term. I simply mean that when asking for a feature the developers and other forum users might not recognize what you’re talking about if you rely on a term used by one specific game rather than using a more generic description.
Ok. I think most people understand transmog as the most generic term for what we’re talking about here, but if you can think of a more generic term let us know. I’d be curious to know if there is one. “Appearance changing”? “Cosmetic customization”?
I wouldn’t mind transmog and other customization being money/resource sinks, instead of the way the economy is based around tedious item management right now.
There’s so much cool stuff the game could reward us with instead of reducing artificially implemented tedium.
Hah, I honestly don’t know. “Add option to apply other armor appearances as a cosmetic-only skin”? At least at a glance everyone knows what that title means.
I’m all for cosmetic options so the more eyeballs on this the better.
I’ve honestly never heard transmog used to describe the system outside of WoW or players referencing WoW. I stopped using it after having to clarify what it meant a few times to non-WoW players. WoW is not as popular as it used to be and the transmog system didn’t even exist until the end of Cataclysm (and that was past the game’s peak).
Big agree, every game that features swappable armour skins that 3d modelers have worked hard on deserves a Transmog/Glamour/Layered Armor system… in addition to that, every game that features a customizable face deserves a hide helmet option.
Let the players express themselves to their utmost desires.
Oh yes good point! A hide helmet option is a must as well imo.
All of the armor designs in the game are excellent, but you have to keep replacing them with stronger armor to progress through the game, so even if you like the design of low-level armor, you won’t be able to wear it. So I wish there were individual armor slots that don’t apply to stats. I would like to see players fight in more diverse and unique costumes when cooperative play is added in the future. (I hope Google Translator conveys my intention correctly.)
I want to make my character more handsome. Can you add this feature in future updates。
This is often called “transmog” short for “transmogrification” in English. I definitely hope so too! I love the outfit my early mage was using carrying big baskets on her back. ![]()
While I’m not against transmog, I’d rather it were a endgame mechanic, because I think part of the visual appeal of the world is the mismatched and ragged appearance of adventuring gear as you survive the dangers of the island.
I WILL say, though, that I’d love it if you were able to gain access to clothes like town-persons wear.
They could make a wardrobe item that you can buy for your house, and only transmog through it.
Thats a dope idea. More decor for housing is never a bad thing.
You can get the candle hat the rookery researcher wears! Alas my enchant got a terrible roll but I can’t wait to find more of it.
I would say you couldn’t transmog later appearances without finding them anyway, so you would still take time to go from that rags to riches look naturally no matter when the actual feature is unlocked. Getting the feature earlier is just a boon to those who want to keep the rags look for longer.
Exactly! Let us appreciate your artists, Moon Studios! I love the art direction, just give us a little more control over our appearance please. Heck, I’m fine if they only ever add a hide helmet option. Would I want transmog or layers or wardrobe stuff still? Absolutely.
