Re: Strange feeling
It made things a bit faster yesterday.
Didn't need to log in to my alt account on PCNA. (The free Epic account.)
Didn't need to log in to my alt account on PCEU. (The free Epic account.)
Didn't need to log in to PCNA on my main account.
Could just log in to PCEU on my main account, open a box of Rewards of the Worthy, then log in to the character I wanted to play.
Reduced my need for logins by 3/4.
However, when daily login rewards are coming from the battle pass, it might be that after its implementation I need to play more on my alt accounts. Not daily, but actually play a bit.

I’m finishing lunch right now, normally I would then log back in to do Endeavors but now I don’t need to do so. It’s nice to not feel like I have to do them, but is that good for the long term health of the game? More players not logging in every day means they can get used to playing other games and doing other things. It could lower the daily population and make group activities like dungeons, trials, and Cyrodiil harder to complete or even get engaged in. We are sort of struggling in those areas on console now anyway.
PC here, but I agree with your comments.
I'll still be logging in daily to play ESO-- I do try to collect the daily hireling mails on my alts, I do daily crafting writs on my main PCNA and PCEU characters, and I enjoy playing three matches against the expert NPCs for the ToT dailies. There are also the daily delve and boss zone quests, although I usually don't do any of those unless I'm trying to collect specific motif pages or just feel like doing a boss fight that I happen to enjoy. And I try to check my available Antiquity leads every day or two for any that are due to expire within the week. Plus, my two newest alts are still researching crafting traits.
But like you, I also made use of the daily endeavors as a way of nudging myself into doing certain activities that I enjoy but that I wasn't generally doing all that often anymore. I'm thinking of setting up a spinning wheel "random picker" with all of the activities I enjoy doing in the game, so I can spin it whenever I'm playing and need help deciding what to do next.
Aside from that, I'll probably be spending a lot more time in Cyrodiil and the Imperial City (mainly the Sewers), and taking the time to get back into questing through the zones I haven't completed yet on my various characters, or working on rounding out their skill trees. So I'm definitely not at a loss for ways to fill up my time in the game.
We shall see how it all plays out in the next year I suppose. I just think those of us on console (don’t know about PC) have been hit hard by the trader listing changes and that has shut down many large trading guilds, Cyrodiil is plagued by the Warden Charm Rush of Agony meta and population is low on GH for DC, and trials are struggling to find players because many don’t want the arcanist/nightblade/whatever required build for dps. One more reason not to log in could be bad for us.
but is a "chore" and feeling forced to log on a good thing? If thats the only reason for logging on, I feel like you are due for a break no?
I am excited to do things when I log on, non chore things. And this ball and chain being removed, means more time for things I actually want to do

Re: Strange feeling
It is kind of nice I guess, I will only log in once a week now probably for the one core trial group I do casually with a guild.
To be honest, it felt like more of a chore than fun logging in to do the "routine". I was finding myself wanting to just get it over with and get to Helldiving or whatever else.
I guess I will probably still log in briefly to restock my trade items for my trade guilds, but that won't take long.

Re: Argonian Race need a urgent revamp of passive skills
They could use a damage bonus to be more rounded out, and lacking any is a big limitation.
And their resource passive should be changed to scale with something, like Major Intellect/Major Endurance like the other races (with recovery bonuses) benefit from, or maybe Heavy Armor bonuses.
Other than that, they're a great choice for PvP and the resource recovery is uniquely helpful for tanks, albeit not enough to be optimized in most settings.

Re: TSC Price Checker and LibHarvensAddonSettings add-ons now missing PS5
Addons are notoriously unreliable. There is something ZoS can do. Those Addons that provide basic functionality (minimap I’m looking at you) should be built into the game.

That's why I said I wish they could find something to tempt players into ESO+ besides the craft bag.
and then there would be a gazillion posts on the forums about why -that- thing should be free
Re: Guild Spamming Issue
It does not help that the guild that triggered all this has some quite _creepy_ people at the top. It adds a layer to the invite spam that is most unsettling. I look forward to clear updates.
Re: What Happened To Daily Login Rewards, Endeavors & Seals
Woooohoooo!!! Is all I have to say, I am so glad these lame mechanics are dead. And I am beyond impressed with ZOS for going against the industry norms this year and rolling those additions back into the crypt they came.
Let me log in because I want to, and because it sounds fun. Not because I need to save up tokens daily, so that when I actually am in the mood I can afford a cool mount months later. This will put me in such a more positive mindset with my relationship with ESO. Its fantastic. Thanks for covering it and helping people understand, ive seen many complaining or being sad. But thousands or millions fo s have hated them since they were introduced and have begged them to get rid of it.

Re: Daily Login Rewards Update
I like these new changes. It's as many have said, a lot of people are not able to log in every day. Work, snowstorm, a death in the family ect, this way people are still able to receive their rewards if they aren't able to get on.
While some may not agree with me, I feel that the season pass is reasonably priced (the base level is free). No one is obligated to purchase the higher tier if they do not wish. That's on the player.
Some of the changes they are making are not easy and take a lot of time. The fact that they are trying to generate revenue is a good thing, it means the game will still be around moving forward. Also many of the changes people are asking for do cost money and it would be unrealistic to have such large scale changes without having more resources financially. This is true of any business.
@Zos The new communication is a very nice thing and I again commend the people who bravely put themselves before the public to further advance and improve this game. It is evident that you guys care as much about it as we do and that needs to be recognized. I will also add that you have convinced a lot of people who may have otherwise left the game to stay. Even if it seems like you don't hear from them, it's a very real thing. I look forward to the future of the game and will be there with my guildies to support you in your efforts

Re: Guild Spamming Issue
I'm gonna be honest here, I don't give two blue beeps about joining a guild, and even I have said this many since I started playing the game.- A search box that allows for searches by guild name and keywords.
