Are you even able to make Quests work, Zenimax?

I am level 50 since yesterday. And i have to say, i like the game, except one thing.
The Quests. Not that they arent well written or interesting...they are. WHEN THEY WORK.
I played since early access day one, and so far i have not encountered a single day when there was no quest so severely broken that it was simply not finishable. It started with Balreth, i guess we all know the shtick, and that one was REALLY bad cause it also blocked your quest progress towards 20 more quests.
Shadowfen, the Quest where you had to search the guy to turn the quest in, who was standing about 1 mile south of where the quest indicator showed it.
The end of the Fighters guild Quest line where you could only click 2 of the 3 gate thingies, and even after todays patch, and graveyard of ships is STILL totally broken.

Really, get your *** together and fix your quest scripting. Amateurs.

So, 5-7 broken quests out of 200+ in Ebonheart pact.
THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!

Actually, no. Maybe YOU should get your *** together instead of attacking developers.

yeah. 5 to 7. Thats why all you ever read in zone chat is about broken quests and goldspam, and english people complaining about the fact they didnt get enough education to understand french and german.

Ever heard of vocal minority and how certain people (especially entitled types one can find among some gamers) tend to focus on negative things?

Also, I mostly seen different people complaining about the few broken quest (Balreth or Anguish being my worst offenders). But even if 20 people complain about 1 quest, it's very different from 20 quests being broken.

So I think that quests are doing alright.

As for goldspam and teleporting bots..Yeah. I went back to Devon's Watch / newbie island and was shocked by spammers in the city and bots in the wilderness.
Really hope it does not spread to other zones.

I'm level 49 and there are wayyyyyyyy more then 5-7 glitched quests.

Its closer to around 20 so far, however mots of these have a work around.

So far i'm missing 9 quests in shadowfen, as that entire zone wont register my completed quests in the achievement section.

2 quests in the rift, as they were bugged last patched, i have not retried them this patch. It required me burning down tents and the animation would work, set the tents on fire, and the quest would not update.

And now i'm stuck in coldharbor trying to get this mate Jellan from the graveyard pirate ship quests to work. Its so glitched that the mobs are not even spawning lol.

I got to cold harbor, at the end of the arc, they require you to activate some doors. well one of them does not work properly, you have to jump off a cliff, and look up while spamming.

Are most of the quests completable? yeah.... Are they working properly and as intended? NOPE!

I cant even get my achievements right now, nor progress. its been 2 weeks and they still have no freaking idea how to fix their phasing. i was in beta for months and we had some of these issues.

some of these quests are so glitched that they just removed them from the game. They don't know how to fix them.
