    I personally would enjoy seeing quality of life adjustments coupled with more solo arenas and updates to existing solo systems (companions for instance + more rewards/less monetization).

    Well, I would like more solo content, since I'm playing almost entirely solo. I think the fairest decision would be to offer both solo as well as group content, though; which would be no problem for me at all, even if I would not play a new trial, for example (but I don't expect everything to cater to my tastes alone).

    I'm not sure how popular duoing is. If it is, they might do more of that, beyond Archive.

    I would like more content that would scale from solo up to four players, but if the best they can come up with is like IA then no thank you. I want it to be similar to WoW delves in that they have a quest you have to accomplish and you can scale them up in level of challenge. I also want them to drop decent gear, not crappy niche class sets that almost no one uses.

    I went with duo since that's what I'm doing 95% of the time. In reality, anything up to 4 players is fine with us. We've been running vet base game and normal DLC dungeons since before companions and with the addition of companions most vet DLC is attainable for us. I also would never advocate limiting it to 4 player and deny those who enjoy large group activities. That's just not where we're at skill-wise. Though running the first boss in normal Craglorn trials as a duo has been something we've been able to do, it's always group mechanics that keep us from going further.

    Especially solo normal dungeons with 3 NPCs (buffed companions?) like WOW did a year and a half ago, so that those who want to do the quest can play without having to compete with the speed runners who've done it 100 times.

    It'd be nice to have content that is for a 6 player group. This could be PVP or PVE, but I think something like IA or trials but with a 6 man team would be a lot of fun.

    i would love to see a Trial designed for 6 people.

    And the option to summon multiple Companions in dungeons, could be a new type of dungeon as well though.

    More solo/duo content like the Archive too.
    perhaps the Battlespire could have that when it's inevitably added in the future

    This as well. I'm hoping next year we have something about a togglable overland difficulty and a story mode option for dungeon/trials. I've been discussing it a bit more on the soloing topic; just don't feel like repeating myself a 100 times over.

    6 person trials would be super cool. I'd love if they made that a variant for current trials and made 6 man version. Getting a group together would be so much easier.

    I can't wait for TES6 to be released. Maybe the shift in audience dynamics will motivate ZOS reposition ESO as a multiplayer game again.

    I can't imagine why anyone wants more solo activities in an online game already overflowing with them.

    I voted more solo content, but I also like the ability to run IA with a companion. So, if duo means doable with a companion, then I would not say no to more of that.

    The point is that it's an online game. Though I can understand the desire to play solo among others like during world events, Cyrodiil, trading, etc, I can't understand the desire for completely solo instances -- other than the fact that someone just wants more single player TES content and this is the only source of new content. Hence, I can't wait for TES6 to take over the reins for this.

    I'm definitely not the most social player out there, but the only reason I play online games is to interact with others in the context of gameplay.

    Duo content would be amazing. It's so nice to hop into the Archive together. The only downside is that it takes a special build to go far, whereas for a typical solo arena, you can use most normal DPS builds with minor adjustments like heals or a monster set. It's also very lengthy, something dungeon or arena-length would be nice for duos.

    I've often given up on group content due to not being able to find 4 people in all 3 roles at any time, but duo content would be nice for players to be able to help each other out. I think it would be a nice transition in between solo players and dungeon content, which a lot of people feel intimidated by.

    So duo content would be easy to pick up and create new bonds between players. There's also no duo content except the Archive, which can also be soloed (and takes hours before it gets challenging and rewarding).

    I may be unhappy with subclassing but I am very happy we're getting 4 dungeons a year again. Maybe some 6 person content could be interesting, but all I really care about is dungeon content.

    As for solo and duo, I do think we're due for another 4 or solo arena, and I'd prefer solo arena since 4-man arenas are similar enough to dungeons. I think questing with multiple people needs an overhaul because it's very not fun to quest in a group right now. But solo as in overland content isn't very appealing to me anymore unless ZOS suddenly ups their writing and/or gives us the ability to re-do quests.

    By duo content, I mean things that are for two cooperating players, not just player plus companion. That seems to be the least represented option, outside of IA.

    IA is also just one implementation, albeit interminably repetitive. Some variety of venue would help.

    Mechanics like pairs of plates to stand on are a bit cheesy for this. Separating twin bosses who weaken if apart is more the vibe I'd want.

    I don't think this needs to be a competition at all. They can make content flexible to fit people from 1-40 or whatever fits. It's very outdated to think that anything has to be solo OR group content, when it can absolutely be both. More people join -> more hp and more dmg from enemies. If there are puzzles that need x amount of people, add npc's as needed.
