Elder Scrolls 6: 10 Ways To Make The Perfect Sequel

3. Greater Character Customisation

Skyrim already boasts one of the best character customisers in the business, so how do you actually improve on it?

Well there are more than a couple of options. While the fifth Elder Scrolls game did allow players to mix and match armours to create their own look, it could've been a lot better. Full armour sets repeat themselves constantly throughout the game, and while you do have the opportunity to smith your own weapons and kit, there isn't any major visual difference between armour you've created and the stuff you can find littered across the map.

The next Elder Scrolls should try and make repeat clothing a thing of the past. Let players better layer their clothes so they can really place ownership on their character, and add further customisation to weapons like unique engravings, bows, arrows and quivers.

There are all sorts of ways to really up the customisation for Elder Scrolls VI, whether through better distinguishing different combat styles, player clothing or even home ownership.
