Event fatigue

    Unfortunately most events have this very stale feel towards the end. Got the max tickets and nothing interesting to buy.

    Some events have 1 ticket furniture which is an alternative to the rather boring Group Repair Kits, Companion Commendations, etc especially if you have all the Style Pages.

    Devs why not add a few simple things, furniture, a treasure chest, something else that preferably only costs one event ticket?. Asking for me as I have no friends.

    Honestly, I would continue doing events beyond getting my allotment (the bare minimum is my wont) and would spend tickets just to extend time spent in the event if it felt at all worthwhile.

    I would be more inclined to participate in events if the 12 ticket limit didn't exist.

    how would you feel about converting them to seals of endeavor?

    I for the most part do the event hoping to land some drop I can sit on for a few months then sell for all kinds of gold. Not sure why I still do this as I'm almost out of things to spend gold on.

    My opinion we have to many events and they last longer than they should. I would like to see more activities available with more tickets available each day. For this event three tickets, one from each zone, would have been good. And of course more to spend the tickets on. Players that have been around for a few years really don't have much reason to participate.

    The event fatigue wouldn't be such a big deal for me if they hadn't released new story content in the middle of one of the back to back to back to back events. They make this mistake a lot, releasing new content during an event.

    For the love of God and for the appreciation of the hard work you put in, ZOS, release content at times when everyone can dedicate their time to it. Why does this even need to be said?

    The event fatigue is real but I think that they're also doing this to test the waters. I think 2026 will be a very minimal content year, even though I think they need to blow us away to make up for this year. I think stuff like the wall was a test of just how much they could do before there was backlash. All it cost them was 8000 seals, a made up currency that they could make infinite of with a button push. I hope I'm wrong, but time will tell.

    I'm not opposed to a year of concentrated bug fixing and revisiting events to old zones. I think they just lost parts of the team that were important and quality and capabilities went down. It will cost them a lot with the botched event, as some are just going full casual and not doing seasons again.

    They're gonna have to figure finances out for Microsoft to keep viable though. I'm not gonna pretend to know where they're sitting there, but I do know waiting years for bug fixes isn't acceptable. Nor the main wind up to a season pass totally getting released broken.

    But as for events, keep them coming and make them more fun and a reason to do them.

    I'm not opposed to that either but we've had year of fixing stuff before and remember Q4 dlc that got axed for bug fixes? That hasn't worked out too well. Also, really, a year of tiny content would be a bad thing for the game as a whole. They can couch it however they like, year of bug fixes, year of transition, but it would be death imo. An mmo needs new and regular content to thrive. I used to play swtor. Really loved the game, bioware etc. I stopped playing in 2015 when my computer broke and I moved to ps. I recently thought of returning, and I looked over the actual content I missed in 10 years. Not a large list. The games holding on with a small community of die hards, which is awesome but they're not, as far as I know, owned by Microsoft.

    I just hope that 2026 is a year that gets ESO back on track.
