Charm and the fact it can still put you in a wall. (snip) edited to prevent the truth
@ZOS_Icy @ZOS_Bill @ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_Hadeostry @ZOS_KaiSchober @ZOS_Adrikoth @ZOS_BrianWheeler @ZOS_CouchTato @ZOS_DanBatson @ZOS_RichLambert @ZOS_MattFiror @ZOS_Hadeostry not tagging anyone else cause seems not worth the effort.
Figured I would tag random people as this next thing will most likely be the end.
Charm......... and the damn bug. I am so sick of getting stuck in a resource tower after charm bug runs me into a wall. If ESO would put as much effort into improvement as they did the crown store items and new material that don't work because you haven't fixed the game the game from the last 45 updates we would have a damn good game. I understand its separate department but maybe to many people work in the crown store and not improving the game.
I think the thing that pisses me off the most is the fact you cant get unstuck cause you are stuck in combat.... you know another problem we have had for ages.............
Why ????? I mean most business' would have *** canned alot of people at this point, yet a broken game is still here because the cash cow is fueled by those that dont know.
When is this game gonna get true improvement? This lets take 2 years to run pvp test, dcing from vet trials, dungeons runs is stupid after a decade.
We have constantly asked to fix stuck in combat, no you seem to be okay with a *** NB running away from a fight, or a sorc streaking half way across the map to avoid a fight once they realize they cant 1v1. I am stuck in the damn wall right now with parts hanging outside after being charm in the doorway.
Please fix the game and stop revealing new crown store items until you fix the game, and at this point you cant say its how we fund fixing the game, stuck in combat has been here millions of dollars ago......

Re: Update 48 Livestream live reaction
I don’t know ZOS capacity but I hope they aren’t piling too many resources into the vengeance testing stuff. Not many PvPers want to play in a dumbed down environment. It’d be much better to focus on creating a healthy balance to Cyrodiil without subtracting from the game or people’s investment to it.

Re: Vengeance 4 perk and loadout system livestream announcement
Vengeance is better for any sort of popluation growth. Used to hate the idea to replace but then they put in a lazy unrestricted subclass system that absolutely tanked player count. Player 24hr peak is now 11039, if that keeps up it's lowest since 2017 free weekend.
The game needs new and returning players. Those players are not going to come back to the same old trash of gear first then latency then skill.
The default load out needs more for newer players though. They also need to have builds of those on the leaderboards viewable somehow. Either direct from the leaderboard or labelled as popular in the default load outs. Not just what the general consensus is, but what the successful leaderboard players are running. Also with community rating on how difficult the build is.

Re: No base game update in 48?
Two points:
- There is relevant feedback that's 2+ years old. If it's something like being stuck in combat, yes, I FOR SURE want you guys to spend time on that. Not all gripes are about a recent combat change. There are longstanding issues that are really important to folks. Just bear that in mind, that's all I ask. Completely understandable that you want to make sure feedback is still relevant though.
- Any time you guys solicit feedback, it'd be great to get a "let me read that back to you" recap post from you. I'm concerned the way you guys interpret and action our feedback sometimes results in something that doesn't match up to the actual feedback. Knowing how our feedback is aggregated and interpreted is going to make this process so much smoother.
We've been known to disagree, but this, this hits home (and I couldn't have said it better).

Sorcs have been nerfed into the ground for the last two years in PvE and I hope we can see a reversal of that next year. I am not asking to be the best at everything and realize that they are still good in PvP but as a Sorc PvE main the last few years have been painful.
I'm sorry to tell you that Brian is the same Brian we already had in charge of combat the last however many years.

Re: Overland Content Feedback Thread

Yeah, no. Vets being unable to play it because it's not designed to include them is very different from someone who doesn't enjoy group play. Normal trials and dungeons are already in the game. And many casual users play and enjoy them. They aren't allergic. It's existence does not cause them harm. Some of them don't feel like eating the sugar cookie with blue frosting because they don't like blue. But it's still a cookie baked to the taste of sugar cookie enjoyers.
It's more like I hate peanut butter so I should be the only with a sugar cookie, if we're going to treat the other content as cookies on this plate.
Obviously, I don't mean by using the term "allergic to" in this analogy that I think any part of playing a game actually harms anyone. To clarify, I was just using the metaphor to express that some players can't participate in most of the non-overland content, and that includes so-called "normal" difficulty in dungeons and trials. I won't rehash all the reasons why here as we've been over them in this thread before, but I will amend the analogy as follows: I stipulate that of the people just eating the sugar cookie, some are allergic to the other cookies (can't play the rest), some could eat the other cookies only after seeing a doctor and getting a shot or otherwise preparing and jumping through hoops, and some just don't like the taste of the other cookies just as the people in the second group don't like the taste of the original sugar cookie.
To clarify another point, there are obviously other players I didn't mention in the analogy who like sugar cookies and some of the other cookies but not all of them. This is an analogy. I was simplifying to make a point.
I don't think one group should be the only one with a sugar cookie, but whether or not they get a sugar cookie made to their exact taste is the real question. They already have access to the sugar cookie.
Analogy aside, as I've said before, I don't necessarily mind an optional increased overland difficulty solution if it doesn't affect my game play. I'm not so sure it won't affect me, but we won't know until we hear the details about ZOS's answer to the issue and test it out. I do have concerns about what a reward system that doesn't punish players who opt out of increased difficulty could possibly look like. We'll see, I guess. I do think there should be a story mode in other content as a balance, and I appreciate your support in that.
The whole reason I responded to your initial analogy is because I didn't think it was a fair assessment of the context of the overland difficulty debate. It seems to me the those who object to an increase in overland difficulty are frequently told, in so many words, that they are just selfish and unjust. It's not that simple. I don't think the arguments against increased overland difficulty (or against exceptional rewards for increased overland difficulty, as we already know the increased difficulty itself is coming in some form) are being given a fair shake. They are often just being dismissed out of hand. I was modifying your analogy to point out that there is another way to look at the whole of the situation from the other side and to hopefully dissuade people from just assuming that anyone who objects to overland difficulty is just doing so for selfish or unfair reasons.
Coming from someone who's passionate about fighting for Overland difficulty, I also do not think there should be exceptional rewards. I can't speak for everyone here, but I think extra XP and gold is enough. In fact, I'm just happy with extra gold, I don't care about any other rewards. I also do not think there should be exclusive bonuses that can't be obtained outside of Overland difficulty, such as pets, mounts, skins, personalities, etc. I'm very minimal when it comes to extra rewards. In my opinion, players who choose to not partake in any Overland difficulty should not feel like they're missing out on any prizes.
Re: Favorite alliance answer
Since a wintery-cold forum mod arbitrarily closed another thread.
I'm on standby for when mods decide to close the fashion megathread due to its age too 🫡 I hope they don't get upset either, since their thread closures are a form of public communication/posts. So mentioning it here to explain why this thread even exists shouldn't be considered a no-no (hopefully).
So you're upset your old thread was closed? Necro Posts are against the forum rules and they encourage you to open a new thread if you want the discussion to continue, which you have done.
No need to be throwing shade at the Mods over it.
Re: Subclass Hot Take…
No thanks. I like subclassing because it gives us the flexibility and freedom to more creatively craft our build. To layer on another set of limitations detracts from that freedom, trying to force builds back into some box/preconceived notion.
