Everything wrong with ESO

It's almost 1,5 years now since Zenimax neglects the game to the point where people just have enough. People trying to discuss stuff on forum but does it have any point? I don't think so. Here I just want to give u guys the list of things Zenimax should/shouldn't do. Changes which are killing the game for me and for a lot of u as well.

1. Infamous lightning patch. No matter what else it did, the performance got serious hit.
2. After 3 years, I wouldn't really mind having lagless PVP experience.
3. How bout finally doing something with Bots?
4. Invalid changes to CP system. Why did they even capped CP and then stacked effects like Elementals and Magic at the same star? It was a rejection of using great class balancing tool.
5. Casual PVE content is way to easy for average player. It's MMO, it makes sense to need someone to help u sometimes.
6. Can someone explain me what was wrong with Veteran Ranks System? Till today, I just don't understand.
7. Why are there still AOE caps?
8. Alliance War skills are way easy to obtain. Back in a day, u had to work for it. Now it's just a matter of few hours.
9. Why there is no reducing healing done to allies in PVP environment by 25%. Basically raw 75% healing reduction from ally's heal with Battle Spirit. That would reduce numbers of healing bots.
10. I don't really see Minor Slayer buff fitting into the game. I vote for replacing it with raw stats om sets.
11. Craglorn should be "difficult" content designed for group play with adequate rewards as reasons to play it.
12. Oh my sweet Imperial City, what have they done to you? Let self respawns only in base, flags system doesn't really work here, mobs are laughable easy to kill now, we need 90% Tel Vars dropping from players feature back, no more buyable Hakiejo's and making Agilty/Willpower more demanded again.
13. Obtainablity of endgame mats (v15-v16) only for Tel Vars, deconstructions and occasional survey's writs rewards. It would make IC popular again.
14. We need some more reliable ways to let PVPers make gold. Like more demanded sets essential for certain builds.
15. Just get rid off heavy armor meta please. Get back old stats with a touch better Constitution passive.
16. Resource poisons are cancer of PVP and reason so many was T-bagged for using. Poisons in general weren't good for the game.
17. Please stop changing abilitie's damage type. It's not healthy for class balance neither for immersion.
18. Bring back old animation canceling system. It's kind of a annoying now for FH and werewolves users.
19. Camo/Evil hunter was a great abilty. Worth sloting for procs and cirt in PVE just as usefull tool to work on vampire population in PVP.
20. I really think that some Master's weapons need more love.
21. Why did we get reduced amount of allies healed from 3 to 2 with FH and BoL? Really annoying in dungeons.
22. RNG factor increase by making more traits available. Well, I rather had certain traits for certain sets avaliable only, rather than struggle with 8-9 traits lottery. Limited traits are also great balancing tool for overperforming sets.
23. RNG factor increase in everyday struggles. We used to get way more golden improvemnts from raw mats back in day.
24. Say NO! to instant damage proc sets. Just leave us with relatively balanced sets like Skoria once was...
25. Let us get decent loot from vTrials we can actually sell everywhere. Still wondering what made Zenimax to screw that.
26. There is way to many sets and like 90% of them is garbage. What's their purpose actually?
27. I feel like we need toggleable abilties back. They seem to be one of balancing factors.
28. Vicious Death is not very healthy set for the game. Concept was good tho.
29. Reduce the amount of AP for zerglings.
30. I don't like recent Veteran Dungeons System with I and II vet/normal. Why cant't we have it like it was pre One Tamriel but with new veteran versions for rest of dungeons (unnecessarily DLC ones)
31. Don't throw so many monster sets at us. Most of them is garbage anyway. Avoid giving both flat stats for one piece set (Domihaus).
32. Weapon trees ultimates shouldn't ever be implemented. Some were way too OP. Instead they should focus on class ultimates to be more viable.
33. 3 years and I still can't change look of my gear.
34. Do we really needed houses? You can't even store stuff there. They spoil the landscapes as well.
35. Craftbag doesn't sound like a required feature for this game. We were doing just fine before.
36. Minor Magica Steal? Was there something wrong with Elemental Drain and Siphon Spirit Combo followed with Orbs? It's example of direct attack on healer's support role in the group.
37. Bring back group utility for Repetance. Why was it screwed up first place?
38. Blazing shards - fine stamina return as group utility and decent stun for PVP. Guess what? Not anymore.
39. Clouding Swarm's invisibilty was a really great tool for Templars and NBs to wipe out bigger groups in PVP without them knowing what the hell is going on.
40. 6 seconds shields duration, how does it affects PVP? You gotta reapply hardened ward in app. that time anyway. That was mostly PVE unnecessery nerf.
41. Bring back Minot Mending as it was. Igneus Shield really lost on it's utilty for DKs, also it's almost obvious for Templars to have that buff for longer, thats how they used to survive.
42. Harness Magica was wroking just fine as just Spell Aborbtion. Why buffing Mag Srocs anymore?
43. Just do something with those snares in PVP. Does every single skill have to snare you? No one came out with snare immunity set idea yet?
44. I'm guessing that it is immposible to keep bow drawn for longer or at least Zenimax thinks it is not.
45. Cloak is still bugged, there is more abilities that can get u off it, than u can evade. Hiding from Meteor was also a great thing and FFS give the skill the snare removal finally.
46. Wish there were actually reasons to use Reflect on DK, just let use reflect meteors again.
47. Streak could evade a lot of projectails, including Meteor. Bring that back.
48. When will we finally get ablity to change ours gear's look? It can even cost Crows I dont care.
49. Wrecking Blow wasn't that OP, was actually great for vMA. Just make it bashable in PVP.
50. Why not making 2h more viable in PVE for burst builds? Also bring back old Executioner's effect.
51. Siphoning Attacks didn't require any changes, they were fine as they were.
52. Bring back old Surge effect with cap for Overload and exception for Rapid Strikes.

That is all I have in mind... for now at least. Do you guys agree/disagree? Maybe wanna add something?

    Some of those do need addressing several of those I disagree with, but opinions and what not, I would however like to see the lower level questing experience to be debugged...many of the quest around Stros Makai and Daggerfall especially are seriously broken, it makes it harder to introduce new people to the game when the starting experience is so janky

    So I shouldn't invite more people to play?

    That is just silly, I'm really glad you're not on the dev team. In any event myself and some of my guild mates are cataloging broken quest hopefully they will be addressed at some point.

    Lots of luck with your agenda.

    Can u explain what is your problem here? It's well known that effects of that patch screwed performence over. Neither certain things weren't put to orginal state nor we got other ways achieve better performing servers.

    Considering the number of new chars I see. Don't know if new players.
    It doesn't seem to be hemorrhaging as many players as the forums would lead you to believe.

    You should of went with a shorter list of problems that really need fixing, instead of a long list of minor issues.

    I think veteran players get the vast majority of everything, all new DLC's game updates, Balancing and expansions are geared toward veteran players, I'm not saying drop everything a fix a few broken quest...what I am saying is you are not going to keep people who try the game if the initial quest state is buggy which it is.

    There are player who actually care about questing provided by DLC and well I am not one of them. What I am looking for in DLCs is group content and in fact it's actually minority mate.

    My wants are actually going to the good old days, it is basically reroll to 2.1 or at least anyone can figure it out from the list.

    Too long a list for me to fully take in before having my morning coffee!

    Most of what I did read I disagree with, except for number 3 - I agree that the bots really do need dealing with. Everytime I do dolmens in Shadowfen I encounter bot trains & in Grahtwood the other day there were 3 trains running a path along 'mudcrab beach'. I keep reporting them but it doesn't seem to be doing any good.

    No need to apologize, causal play style is the vast majority of this game these days and casual guilds don't have the issue of keeping enough members like the two or three hardcore guilds in this game....My guild has had to put a freeze on recruiting for the fourth time this year, I personally sorta feel bad for people that build their entire world around a play style that really no longer exists, but the good news is there are a couple of niche old school MMO's that are in development, who knows maybe they can keep enough folks playing one of them to keep the lights on?

    Not quite.

    It was the patch that also contained new indoor lighting (not lightning) effects where performance tanked into the 2-3 FPS range for everyone in Cyrodiil for the better part of a week.

    However it was some anti cheat code that was the issue, not the new lighting effects.

    From alexandrafranzen.com/2015/12/31/manifesto/

    Traditionally, a manifesto is a written statement where you publicly declare your…
    – Intentions (what you intend to do)
    – Opinions (what you believe; your stance on a particular topic)
    – Vision (the type of world that you dream about and wish to create)

    Let's see, intentions? - "just want to give u guys the list of things Zenimax should/shouldn't do." Covered
    Opinions? - 52 of them neatly numbered, thanks to HTML OL command
    Vision? - Not really certain, but it appears to be a totally different game that what he is playing right now.

    Minus points because it isn't simple and beautiful. Minus points for spelling mistakes. More grammatical errors than I carry to count, so further negative points. Overall reaction - had banging on desk, wondering when this this forum will allow us to ignore users.
