Does the game get worse with every update?

Blacknight841

It has now been a year since launch on the xbox one. Let us recap some of the great memories of the past year:

*Game launches
An MMO but with no friends list?
UI Error when bidding first appears - After a year this issue is still not even considered on the list of things that might be potentially looked at for fixing.

*One month after launch
Many bugs plague the game however the issue of the flickering grass was fitted! Yay

*Imperial City
Entire guild store and trader system is ruined due to the fact that the prices don't appear.

* One month after imperial city
Finally the prices are fixed

*Orsinium
Updated the roster system. I can personally guarantee that there were not enough people complaining about the old pages system that this should have even come up as something to fix. SINCE IT WAS NOT BROKEN. .... But as per ZOS style, they broke this too.
- Rosters scroll to the top every time someone logs in or out. Accidentally send mail to the wrong person since it scrolls to the top while you press 'send mail'. Terrible!
- ZOS response to the a request "The rosters are fine. If you are having trouble finding someone, add them as a friend." This is not even a joke but lets just remember for a second that the friends list is still broken 6 months later.
- WHY? This is a great question. They took a system that allowed faster movement with the triggers and took that away. Why indeed is the question.

*Thieves Guild
Finally some good news. No wait never mind. Orsinium is broken and it has intermittent loading everywhere. Good luck questing!
Update on rosters> Still broken.
There was good news though! Friends list is finally fixed!!! After nine months the issue is resolved. Except no one cares anymore since they have no reason to add anyone in the game anymore.

*Dark Brotherhood
- Rosters are still broken after 6 months. Ridiculous! However they now have added a few new obstacles to make the gaming experience more enjoyable!
- Loading into Orsinium, Grahtwood, Bal Foyen, any starting zone really.... Can have the result of being kicked immediately and not being able to load back in with that character. Contacting customer support will get your character moved, after a few days of email, of course. Now I can confirm that this issue IS being looked at, or at least it was on May 26 when ZOS commented on the post that is still hovering on the first page of technical support and has over 7 pages of posts.

* 1 year later
-Still playing Russian roulette with the loading screens. I can sit here and come up with at least another 10-20 things that ZOS has failed at fixing, but I only have so much time to log in and out hoping I can continue playing the game.
-Announces 'Tamriel one' along with a 'gold edition of the game' due to declining server population. Surprise!
* I almost forgot about all the money that people deposit into the guild bank, and then it just vanishes... Another issue that is still not fixed.

All in all it was a wonderfully unsuccessful year! I cannot wait to see what wonders bigger game changes, like guild housing (that might come out sometime in 2017, maybe) will bring to the game!

Thank you for giving us reasons to continue paying for ESO PLUS!

BONUS: After thousands of support tickets issued to you many customers, we can unanimously say that the most common go-to fix for any problem was "Delete your game data. That should fix your problem". FYI: it doesn't fix anything.

As a console player I feel that it has honestly.

SammyShotBothSides

I'd agree. They break more and more at each new release, without spending time fixing the historical bugs/features. Time for them to slow the DLC rate and focus the entire team on fixes.

Nevermind!

neville_bart0s

Yes.

Methadone_Man

Yes. I dread any upcoming DLC. I honestly don't care about any new DLC or any new Crown Store contents because the glaring technical issues should be first priority.

Vaoh

Oh c'mon now... don't discredit the good stuff they added.....

Tons of great content, lots of bug fixes, and many good balance changes. ZOS did fantastic in the new content department with regards to what new zones/quests were actually added.

Performance-wise it is an ABSOLUTE ATROCIOUS MESS right now..... but they could probably care less until every campaign is as empty as Azura's Star (PS4 NA). It is already happening. Can't tell you how many fed up players I've seen leave ESO since Thieves Guild released from the stability problems. Dark Brotherhood made it twice as bad. Likewise, those who came back since Vet Ranks were removed are quitting again from the performance issues

But this game is so great. I can't wait for the next 40$ mount reskin. Oops. Forgot to drink bleach first.

But honestly if you REALLY think about it and put aside wanting to play the game. The loading screens aren't that bad since they use the concept art. Whoever drew the concept art must be the only competent person in Zenimax. I think the concept art is really good in my opinion. I don't know. I just really like the style.

I have nothing better to do anyway because I'm stuck in Wrothgar. So I'm just waiting for customer "support" to... respond.

Lol yeah. It was a fun few weeks untill the nuke called Dark Brotherhood dropped on Tamriel. I wonder if they're going to add a DLC that explaines how The Elder Scrolls became playable between the events of ESO and TES Adventures Redguard.
