Are we entering a phase of poor QoL?

I read were Morgan Goin has stated that ESO cannot match it`s pace with new content. According to the post that I read, the team at ESO is about the same size as when the Summerset and Wrothgar DLC came out. If we are entering a poorly managed and/or constructed content then we need to be prepared for a poor QoL. I just hope that the rest of the classes still gets a refresh because it would be unfair to stop the refresh as is.

I think there’s a difference between QoL and product quality.

If you mean reduced product quality, I think that’s been a longstanding issue that could certainly get worse. I love this game, but it’s had a long history of quality problems and honestly, this year is no different.

I have largely shelved the game and probably won’t return for sometime. The earliest would be when the High Seas event starts. But if I see a lot of negative feedback, I’ll turn around.

I am at a point where I don’t have any motivation to play through problematic content. And with how things are going at ZOS, I’m concerned it’s the new norm.

With no concrete info to go on, I'm not sure what the usable outcome is of speculating about this. Future roadmaps will tell us what we're expected to get as far as QoL changes.

Team size isn't the problem if we go off it being the same size as Summerset or Wrothgar (Which are zones people adore) it's skill that's important, 100 skilled developers can do things not even 1000 could do.

But as of right now we just don't have enough information to go off except feelings and what people say, but until a new roadmap drops, we really don't know anything.

Roadmap was told before the layoff, now that the company has been reduced in staff therefor the question. How is the QoL going to now!

There is alot more to this game since Summerset and Wrothgar, I know the team back then could handle the problems but the game is huge. This is why I started this subject, QoL I think will be bad. In order to stay afloat, ESO will have to make money and in that direction is where they will go.
