The High Elves' faces

[Lykreios]

Look at them in TESO... And look at them now..
Seriously guys. Inbreeding is bad for the offspring.

[Urm the Mad]

High Elves have always been ugly

They look good, but their skin color is frequently too greenish. I played ESO for years. Someone joked that Altmer look like they have liver damage.

Most the Altmer look like they have down syndrom in this remastered version . Not that I have a issue with people with down syndrom but just pointing that out .

Yeah, too bad they don't look anything like that picture in-game. Just look at good ol' Mannimarco in the CGI trailers and how he looks in-game. Vastly different.

I am wonder why most of the NPC.s have these gigantic wide mouths. It looks so weird especially when you get their eyes so close together they are touching.
I think it must have something to do with using the same lip-sink for all the creatures in the game. The dev was talking about it. So humans have the same size mouth as the lizards and cats.

There are some mods on Nexus that are aiming to fix alot of the ugly faces, keep an eye on them. There's already a mod that fixes the younger faces and skin quality.

Eso made them not look like they are supposed to look.

Old Oblivion just made anyone look odd / bad (because the tech wasnt ready)

I think the truest depiction of them (as in how they actually should look like) is in Skyrim, whether you like it or not.

But ESO is definetly not the way they were supposed to look, they were beautified for marketing reasons and barely differ from humans (probably because of lazyness / effort reasons)

Don't really like ESO character designs in general. Definitely the weakest and a step back from Skyrim, they're very generic and most races lose a lot of their identity. (Skyrim has the best designs imo).

Honestly the only issue of most Altmer NPCs in particular is that their eyes are always very close together.

Yes original oblivion displayed NPCs the way they did because they were limited by the tech of the time. Really no reason for the remaster to still have such awful faces.
