Subclassing as it is could be expanded upon. Let us swap out our base class. Let us have up to three skill lines from any other class. That way I don't need to have one Templar skill line at minimum; I could instead have three Warden skill lines, or two Necromancer skill lines and one Warden skill line.

Something that gives the players total freedom over which three skill lines they own without needing to swap characters to do so. Also please let us use any Class Set and style, and make the Scribing Class Mastery change depending on how many skills on a skill bar you have equipped, i.e. you could change Class Mastery based on which Class skills you use the most of. All without changing characters.

How can they not understand that unless we get a paycheck from ZOS, we don’t care what the corporate structure is, what their job title is, what their job responsibilities are? We didn’t tune in for a LinkedIn round table.

If your position is relevant to why you are avoiding answering my questions and not fixing the QoL issues by all means slip it in. Otherwise, give me information I need or want to play the game.

I’m also kind of sick of the reveal/not a reveal game. If we cared about spoilers we wouldn’t be tuning in. Why would I want to watch you run around for half an hour trying to avoid spoilers?

They always seem more interested in entertaining each other than answering questions . I’m also always secondhand embarrassed by how badly they play their own game.

Some things I did learn today that I had always suspected. The second half of Solstice is no more interesting than the first.half. The “season pass” was a shrinkflation cash grab and they weren’t going to reveal it until as late as possible i.e. this stream. “This is a transition year” How about you transition twenty dollars back into my account? They think recycling assets, call backs and milking played out aspects of the game are fooling the players and a positive experience that they can continue to ride for another twenty years.

Well the game is still great.
If some dont like it, bye. Save yourself the grief and ours.

What do veteran players do after logging in each day?

We log out again.

Same thing I did when I was new to the game. Play content and then log out.

Honestly? Busywork. I paid for the content pass so I'm sticking around for the writhing wall and to do the story content for the other half of Solstice, but after that I'm not sure how long I'll be able to justify logging in to basically waste time.

I'm running dungeons to fill the sticker book, but there seem to be two types of pugs right now for normal dungeons. The first one has one (or two) players using the arcanist beam. When that happens, I might as well not be there. They melt everything so fast I can hardly draw my bow. Not fun. The second type is no beam. Those are still okay to run. At least I can get a hit in before everything is already dead. ZOS really needs to do something about the mess they've created with subclassing.

I have the most fun collecting lorebooks because it takes me all over the world, often to delves and other places I haven't been in ages. I've even come across side quests I hadn't done, despite completing all zones. But the fun is overshadowed by the fact that there are books in places I'll never go (like trials), so I can't complete the collection. Because of that, it's not as fun or satisfying as it could be and I could easily give it up.

As a veteran player (as in, has been playing for a while), I need to see something coming down the pipe next year that makes me want to stay. Endeavors and golden pursuits aren't enough when there are so many other games I could be playing and spending my money on. The question becomes why spend my gaming time and money on ESO, if all there is to do is repetitive tasks that I've already done hundreds, perhaps thousands of times before? I don't mind doing that some of the time, but not all of the time.

Endeavours

Levelling up Azandar so I can complete his story, even though I don't like the character.

Golden Pursuits, if they're on

Event, if one is on

Antiquities, if I have open leads

Treasure maps or surveys

Do people realize how delusional it is to think there is any possibility that ZOS would support two different versions of cyrodiil at the same time? It's going to be one or the other. ZOS is actively working on vengeance mode rather than working on fixing any issues with current live mode. So it's very confusing trying to understand why this so obvious reality is not sinking in with those promoting vengeance. It's going to be one or the other at some point, and ZOS is not investing time or money into their current live mode. This isn't rocket science to see what's happening.

Everyone who's going to PvP is already doing so. PvE players aren't going to backfill the PvP population for vengeance mode.

Vengeance can get content updates, map changes, extra mechanics, or other things, but regular Cyrodiil will never again get content updates. Ever.

Rich Lambert was pretty transparent about this on his livestreams. The reason why Cyrodiil didn't get any content all these years is the poor performance.

Some of you may remember that new weapons were datamined to be released after Volendruung, like Spellbreaker and Auriel's Bow. And even the announcement for Volendruung was worded in a way that hinted at future updates. But the performance damage caused by Eric Wrobel's proc sets, destructible bridges/gates, and Volendruung caused ZOS to press the pause button on all updates.

But if Vengeance manages to improve performance enough, that gives ZOS good ground to build upon.

Vengeance is sustainable. Old Cyrodiil isn't.

You mean the guy with tha parrot on his shoulder in this video?

Virtually nothing ZOS has said about the future of PvP or what they're doing to fix it has made it to live. That's the opposite of transparency.

Vengeance IS NOT sustainable. Live cyrodiil with performance and higher pop caps IS sustainable. We know because we've seen it before in the past. ZOS can fix live cyrodiil if they made the commitment to make it happen.

They're trying to figure out what to do with that stockpile of resources they spent years collecting, which is now just dead weight.

Well said. Me personally, I dont need them to reinvent the wheel. I dont need them to do anything but reinstate a single 3 team BG queue. I dont need em to delete two team, I dont need a separate queue for DM or objectives, I just want classic battlegrounds back as is. As was. I want to play two team if I feel like it and three team the other 90% of the time.

Side note, it is absolutely ridiculous that with the amount of feedback, with the amount of pushback, they've received regarding the loss of 4v4v4 there's been almost zero communication to the players affected other than one or two vague "hey we here you" responses. Maybe they're mad at us for not just absolutely loving two team. Maybe they blew the budget for an entire year on the revamp and there's no dinero to accommodate our repeated, pointed, and increasingly frustrated requests to give us our ******* game back. They probably think we're a bunch of ingrates who do nothing but complain and are never happy. Whatever. How are we supposed to respond to getting the silent treatment for an entire year?

And now ZOS is gearing up to, apparently at least, replace live cyodiil PvP with a version that is almost universally despised by the PvP community.

ZOS is doing what ZOS wants. Not what the community is asking for. I hope nobody is wondering why the game is bleeding so many players so fast.
