So clothing and armor makes a difference too. Wearing dirty peasant clothes doesn't get you as far as wearing clothes from the nobility or good looking armor.Įxample: I went from crap armor to my full plate and all of a sudden I went from peasant to 'Sir Knight' which is what most people call me now all because of the armor. They will also react differently depending on what you wear too. Once I have it cleaned and repaired it shines. I'm wearing full plate armor and it looks very dull in the screenshot because it is dirty. So people will react differently with you depending on how clean or dirty you are.
I believe they can wash off your armor as well because mine always looks better after the bath house. You can also pay to have your clothes washed. Oh and going to a bath house gets you fully clean. I keep my gear repaired but even now I need to hit up a armor smith and have the dents fixed as well as cleaned up. Its hard to see in the character screen but I have quite a lot of blood on me. Also blood will get on your clothing and armor and the more you fight the worse it gets. And when you fight your clothing and armor take damage and show it. You can actually start to stink from BO and such. You can wash up your face by using a water trough but it doesn't do much for you. One thing that is cool is how your appearance makes a difference in how people treat you.
