They did do something like this in Shivering Isles, didnt
They?

Only for warring factions but if its just a mage guild person walking into the Battle guild, all the battle guilds guys will whisper: Wuss....

Yes, that makes sense since even if you were completely naked except for a single ring on your finger, for example, you were considered fullly clothed. Like in the quest to join House Hlaalu, Crassius Curio asks you to take all of your clothes off, in order for him to sponsor you. If you leave a ring on, he still considers you dressed.

Also, another thing they did in Morrowind with faction specific armor was the Indoril Armor worn by the Ordinators (you know, those masked guards in Vivec). If you wore either the cuirass or the helmet when addressing an ordinator, they would attack you and permanently put you on the hate list of *all* ordinators. However, you first had to address them, they didn't do that on sight. But that can be done too with different scripting, as seen in later games.

Imagine!

Put on your Dragon costume and it makes people run away and the city guards hostile and at the ready!


Imagine!

Disguise as the Bogey Man makes children run away with fear!


Imagine!

Disguise yourself as a guard and you can yell at people randomly: "Stop right there criminal scum!"
*NOTE: You can also give them the option to:
-pay the fine (To you )
-Go to jail (in which case, a random basemant)
-Resist arrest.


According to these examples... your idea is great!

If no-one knows who you are and you come into a city wearing necromancers clothings, of course they should do something about it. However, those who knows you should know who you truly are no matter what kind of clothing you have.

I like this concept so I say hellz ya ! Would also be cool to maybe give some of your clothes to street bums and then later see them wearing it.

Another thing I would like to see are NPC's showing up each day with different clothes, so maybe they have 5 different outfits they randomly swap between.

Well thats will be very good if will be implemented thats was nice feature in morrowind but need some tweaks with mods trough for example wearing an ring still counts as wear clothes on undressed character, Ordinator attack player in Indoril armor even if we receive it legally or %PCname leader of Tribunal Temple or Nerevarine.
In oblivion I use great mod by kuertee
Clothing matters

Awesome greatly improve game experience.

This was not related to your choice of clothing, but your rank in the Mages Guild. He attacked me at one point as well without provocation. Here's the entry on the wiki:


Edit: whoops, didn't see the post was from the 28th of february

Still, I would love to see people respond/react based on the clothing/armor you wear. I found it rather silly to be dressed up as a Dark Brotherhood member and nobody (not even guards) said anything. Same thing while running around naked. At least in Morrowind people commented on that

Thanks, Dragon_Stalker!

My mod that Dragon_Stalker mentions above does attract the gurads to you when wearing the DB armour.
Being naked has no penalties per se'.
But wearing the correct clothing when in dialgoue with NPCs have bonuses.
E.g.: Expensive clothing when interacting with royalty will give you some bonus.
While the same apparel when interacting with the poor will not.

Also, another not-so-well known feature of Clothing matters is guard uniform can be used to inflitrate guard factions.
Be careful, however, because there are "conditions" for this: E.g.: the longer you impersonate a guard, the more suspicious guards will become of you.
And the more complete your guard uniform is (e.g. helmet, shield, etc...) the better your disguise will be.

My experience with Nords says this is common practice in Skyrim. There were so many naked Nords in Morrowind...

Running around naked in a chapel should make npcs react in some way, maybe it could even get us a fine

I totally agree with the OP.
I kinda found it silly when I could walk around in my Black Hand robes without any guard trying to bust me or any other NPC trying to run in fear.
They should work on that.

I guess this should be a feature that they work on, wearing the clothes associated with criminals or enemies of a certain factiion should decrease people's disposition towards you. Also running around in your underwear should have the same effect too, maybe you could even get arrested for it?

Or, depending on the circumstances, a cat call and a proposition?

Yes people should comment on your clothing, inappropriate or otherwise.

Like in Morrowind where they'd comment if you were naked (or so I heard), or if you are wearing very expensive clothes (which I have personally heard).

Also if you are sick (diseased) or not, like in Morrowind were they'll tell you not go come close if your sick because they are afraid of catching it.

I also think there should be some consequence in going out in the cold without clothing that is warm enough.

But comments on clothing like it being nice, or crummy, or inappropriate or from a rival group would definitely add to the immersion and would be a great feature.
