✭✭✭✭✭Dont know whats the reason to hype new things before homestead reach live server. This is something you do after normally... But maybe the critics about homestead are to big and the hypetrain shall choo choo the critics down...
It's because Housing is not actual content, it's fluff. On the same way, One Tamriel wasn't content, it was a change on a core feature. We had no progress on the main story for a while now. After Orsinium, all we had regarding the main story was a little dialogue with Gabrielle in Anvil and some hints regarding Vvardenfell.
So, while the devs can't possibly create content as fast as players can burn through it, people run out of things to do much faster when the thing you are adding to the game now doesn't really have that much for them to chew on.
Rich said that something would happen during Homestead to kick the plot forward. I thought he meant it was something that would be added with Homestead, but it appears he was speaking about this announcement.Edited by Abeille on 31 January 2017 14:40Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.
Meet my characters:Command: Do the thing.
Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.0 -

Oh man that would be so amazing!Website, store, account and both consoles maintenance?
First thing which comes to mind is cross-platform, but i don't even...
I'm sure plenty of people would hate the idea, but I think the more the merrier, and one of my best friends plays on console, so it would be awesome to play with her as I'm on PC.
But they have said before that its basically not possible, I think either in an interview or an ESO Live.

And have you miss out on all my witty commentary? Rest assured, the thought never crossed my mind.
I am just saying that, as building hype goes, this is not the best that they could have done. It is very predictable.2 -
SamWale✭✭Whatever is being announced, I'm sure it will be awesome. Really excited to discover the next chapter of ESO.
Thanks for continuing to build and improve such an incredible game!1 -

VerboseQuips✭✭✭✭✭Do you think some of the existing sets and zones will be updated? The look of some racial motifs and some textures, for example in Rivenspire, now look a bit outdated. Orcish and Redguard equipment was refreshed already, why not the rest?
Also, remember that Rivenspire was the only zone featured in an article after OneTamriel?Do you think we'll get to rescue the Count Verandis? Also, Molag Bal basically imported a(n unfinished) Tower inside Coldharbour. I am sure this could have tremendous lore implications, and this is, in my opinion, one of the major loose ends in the side quests of ESO.
Oh, and I hope we get Loremaster's Archives again. And that the hirelings will send us new letters.

It's not DLC, it's an expansion.2 -
lehran✭✭✭To address the above questions (based on info I got from the stream)
1. Not included in ESO+, need to purchase separately (not confirmed, but very likely due to the pricing strategies employed; it's being pitched as an upgrade and not a DLC)
2. It's essentially an expansion: entire zone of Vvardenfell (storyline is roughly summarized as "Save Vivec"), new Warden class, PvP Battlegrounds, and a new trial taking place in the Clockwork City. The full Clockwork City zone is not part of this, but is being reserved for a future DLC. No word on gear cap increase, so I expect that cp160 gear will still be the cap. The cp cap will likely be raised to 630 since each new update seems to increase it by about that (Homestead is taking it to 600).
3. You can purchase either a physical edition at retail stores or a digital edition through steam or the ESO website. No crown pricing was announced, so I expect that it will be a fixed-price item in the store and not available as an in-game purchase.5
