so many bugs... =( disheartening I have many bugs with the nightblade class skills but would hate to have what happened to force happen to me with a main quest bug.

This sums up my frustration with the game. I enjoyed it so much until this happened to me.

These things will get fixed, and while frustrating I think it is kind of the price you pay for being on the leading edge of the leveling curve. This person had played an average of 9 hours per day each and every day since early access. Those are the people that will unfortunately run into the bugs at the upper levels and since they are some of the first to find the bugs they will probably have to wait longer to see them fixed.

For the average player I assume many of these issues will be resolved by the time we start on VR content.

I don't really buy that. It's not that there are bugs, all games have those when they are new, and ESO seems to have fewer than many. The problem is that those bugs prevent you progressing. In other games, if you come across a bugged quest, and there's no quick fix, you just move on. Unfortunately, in ESO, there are only really just enough quests to level up. Also, and most problematic, there are main quest arcs which are essential for progressing, and it is these quests which are the bugged ones. It wouldn't be so bad if they could at least just advance you over the bugged section.

Have to agree with this post. In all my years of gaming, MMO or otherwise, there is a sort of understanding that bugs are and will happen and most will be ok with them unless they are in the 'main quest' of a game. That is just a big no-no. And ZOS really needs to step it up.

OR

They can unlink the main quest from so much stuff.

Until they fix the insane amount of bugs (I'm currently on a bugged level 20 story quest and am ***, even though I'm VR1), they need to make it so if you hit level 50, you get a quest to do the other factions.

There is NO way I'll stay subbed when I've already been stuck doing nothing for over a week now, with nothing but terrible response from CS (this latest patch may have fixed it!!! Solved. lol). I've sent in probably 5 or 6 tickets, and still have yet to have my quest fixed.

Great game, absolutely awful customer service and communication. Just nothing else to say.

Funny , i dont remember he ever saying he got that bug fixed.

What he did say , is that he got past it by getting help from other player , who shared the quest with him.

Which is not the same at all.
