In the next Elder Scrolls game. And a proper sallet, and a morion too. I think modders would have a field day drawing inspiration from myarmoury.com

jacquesmartel, those are "riders only". Not much of a realism running around Tamriel provinces in that much metal on one's own two feet :)

 

 

If anyone wants to play the realism card, then its no worse then seeing leather thong and nipple piercing 'armor' though :rolleyes: . Something like those above pictures NEED to be made to offset the horrible flood of those types of 'armors'.

Well, you have a point. Historically those armors could actually exist in TESIV-time Tamriel... though I really doubt about thongs. However... people who want lore-friendliness are rare these days...

Well, I myself really hate the 'thong' armor types, its played out, uninspired, and totally un-original these days granted some of the mesh work is impressive, but we need to take into consideration exactly who is playing this game. I can probably safely assume that most of the audience here is male between the ages of 14 and 25 (?). So most of the armor for females is tailored to that demographic. I know there are the female gamers scattered about for sure, my Girlfriend is one of them, she plays this game constantly. The demand for 'realistic' plate armor just isnt high enough i guess.

 

As for good Full plated armor, heres what i can recommend

 

TDA's Beta Armoury, some of the best fullplated armor ive seen....

SkeletonK's Berserk Armor.

Anything by Pale_rider is great

 

and there was this one set of armor that looked like it was from fable, i cant remember what its called.

 

I myself am a huge lore junky, i only like to wear armor that i see as 'logical'. in words it actually looks like armor, Plated surfaces and chain mail where applicable, with VERY little skin exposure.

 

Its a shame to see artfully done screenshots with 'logical armor' get low views because it was sandwhiched between 2 pictures of scantily clad females doing god knows what, but eh, as i said above, thats just the demographic proving itself to me. :rolleyes:
