Do you feel the hype after the reveal?

5 - Hyped, new content looks dope, cannot wait

The content does not hype me at all to be honest. Looked rather uninteresting, both trailer and images shown.
The combat and system changes however... they hype me a lot. There are a lot of questions still, though this could be a great year for ESO with everything that was said.

-Server Updates
-They hire more staff! (Finally they see that ESO deserves support and investment)
-CP rework
-Companions sound very interesting, even though I have no clue how they can be balanced when allowed in dungeons and trials.
-armor changes sound poorly thought through, but could become very interesting with a bit of feedback and consideration.

Should of made it all about the deadlands......or all about the imperials....mish-mash of things just didn't really sink in and also what do we get with it other than story and companions?

Also just miffed that "The Dead Lands" a daedric prince realm is going to be in small story zone, with two world bosses and two delves......-looks at coldhabour- expecting more if going to explore there. Really sad about that part.

4 - Medium hype, sounds okay enough to buy expansion when they will release, probably will enjoy the content

I'm excited to explore a new area, particularly some territory not in previous TES games.

But I was beyond stoked when the rumors were it would be Skingrad, and I can't help but feel disappointed as well.

It's a roller coaster.

Been waiting for Cyrodiilic - lore - chapter for a long while

Looks great, and I always enjoy the storylines. Those two mounts that come with the game are fantastic.

I'm glad we'll be able to choose our own tutorial/starting location now.
I'm SUPER glad they're reverting that horrible change to heals in PvP that they'd been implementing. That's what I'm most excited about.
Companions might be interesting, but of course it'll mean that every time you look at other players, they'll have clones of the same dude who is following YOU around. It would be like how you see endless clones of the banker/merchant everywhere. You'd get used to it, but still wish there were more options for their appearances so they don't all look the same.

The trailer and new zones looked amazing, and companions are something I’ve wanted for a very long time! The CP rework looked really promising too! Going to be a good year!

Meh, just gonna wait till they release another chapter then MAYBE I'll buy it when on sale.

I think I'm biased here.
I love Argonian culture, and it was about time we got some love.
I mean, Murkmire was great, but very small.
The hype is real!

Honestly...owning this also on Xbox seems odd that no game updates were revealed or I missed that part.

Some of the partial changes were feedback given prior to converting from the veteran system to champion points.

This without addressing dmg sponge NPCs but then saying they are changing parts to TES-like seems unfinished.

It’s more apparent now that PvP and PvE don’t go together and the games going to suffer until the team separates the two server and feature/ability/skills/armor

Very hyped. Love argonians I wish we were getting a new weapon type but alas.

After such a long time, companions are finally coming! I can't wait for the release!

Seems nice. I'm withholding judgement until we see more of the chapter, but I know I'm gonna and up preordering since I love the preorder/collector bonus stuff. Plus just the bits we saw made me really excited to check out the zone. Especially since it looks like the Q4 may end up being in the Deadlands, which would be awesome.

Sure I would rather they had put in things like spears, but I'm excited to see what's coming.

Funny - Oblivion was my least favorite of the recent TES games (though that isn't saying much) and I've never really been big on Argonian lore, but I'm actually really curious to see where this is going. Bring on the Dawn!
...no I'm not going to go all "daddy Dagon" here, that was just a bit awkward...

I tuned in to the stream but then I was needed to help my husband who has covid, I have covid too and I am exhausted. By the time I returned I had a peek at the art which looked great, then I was needed to help again. I was able to watch the second half of the stream. I actually didn't see much of the chapter reveal; I like it new content is created for this game.

There are some new cool things coming no doubt. I'd say I'm between 4-5, I might get more excited as we learn more about the coming expansion.

I'm glad that we're fighting a Daedric Prince again, and not just any Prince.

I'm probably not the only one who got hyped about "new servers!".

2 - Not really hyped, I will probably buy the expansion tho when it will be on sale

Underwhelmed, but looking forward to seeing more Imperial related stuff. I won't be pre-ordering. I appreciate the mount is a "new kind" but it still underwhelmed me. Thought maybe they'd fixed the two-person mount issues. The pet is same old same old. Nothing makes me want to pre-order. Time for me to start playing hard to get with ZoS.

I liked that they kept their promise on performance and seems like we are in for some big changes, I am interested to see how those impact the game... but overall the chapter is very slim... no one is a fault and not complaining, just a fact.

[X] I didn't watch the reveal.

You don't need to buy chapter to get CP rework, servers and combat system changes.

On a bright side, this is great chapter, because you don't even have to buy it to get the best of it

I know they said 'dont expect too much', but you cant use that excuse against a new class, CP rework, wepon or skill like

They did announce a CP rework at the end of the ESO live stream, although it's not what most people thought.

I have no doubt that I'll have fun, but I'm not hyped like last year. Vampires, antiquities, last year I really couldn't wait.

Im not really a fan of black marsh, havent really liked any of the zones that have previously appeared in game.

Companions im cautiously excited for. It could be cool but I have a lot of questions and a few concerns.

Very concerned about some of the combat changes ive read.


I probably will pick it up at some point for the companions unless info comes out that makes me think their not worth it. Its probably not going to be at launch.

3 - Not hyped but will buy at launch because of reasons (i always do that/guldmates/etc)

So many missed opportunities, like oblivion gates looks like just gonna be a carbon copy dark anchor mechanic.
Imagine if they added sigil stones as 1 time use unique enchants, would already make these much more worth.
Companion system, while I see the rp value, I can't help but feel it's going to cause a lot of issues forr them in the future. Adding npca to fight alongside players doesn't seem very productive from a performance perspective.
Also I get that we still have a good 5 months till Darkwood release, but still, so little actual useful info was released on the chapter, what little hype I may have had for it was killed by the onslaught of sales pitches instead of talking about the actual game.

No, this chapter adds nothing I'd be interested in.

Sounds like marketting to hide the nerf everything including the servers

New:
smaller
cheaper
slower

seems the most likely!

Knockmaker

1 - Not intrested, probably won't be playing the chapter

Not really. I understand the hype to some extent, but that doesn't change the fact that game is still a mess. Putting more content on it won't improve things.

Although it is good that zos reverted cross healing, they still block their ears about a bigger problem, reduced group sizes, and even bigger problem, performance issues.

I am just sitting back and waiting for hype to turn into frustration again once it is live and brings more problems (not a boomer, it is history).

tl dr: Nice stuff, but I am more interested in solving core issues first, or together with more content, instead of hoping to hide them by releasing more content.

3 - Not hyped but will buy at launch because of reasons (i always do that/guldmates/etc)

before ESO, I bought 3-4 full price games like Wolfenstein a year (so 240 Euro/year).

Unlike ESO, these did not offer constant progress and refinement of my characters.

I now pay the same (DLC + crown store items), but don't have the "throw away" feeling after finishing a game, but the feeling that the new DLC added value to my setup.

I am not at all hyped by Blackwood contentwise, but see it as a welcomed distraction/addition to existing stories and regions to explore, so I am willing to pay the 30 Euro that are less than 20% of what I would pay for some full price games.

I don't need to be "hyped", some good content is reason enough for me to buy a game (DLC).

I rarely get hyped for anything these days. But I will buy the expansion as I always do. I like this game.

So hyped I threw money at the screen to buy the digital upgrade for both Xbox and PC.

Looks epic!

I was really impressed and happy for the enormous effort ZOS has put into this.

• CP overhaul
• Armor changes
• Companions
• Choice of tutorial/starting location
• Upgrades to server hardware

Well the thing I'm most excited about is the CP system rework. I'm way past the current cap, at 2308 currently - I will probably gain 10-15 more till the DPC drops - and I'm glad I will finally be able spend those 1500+ which are currently just sitting there.
