Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only person with a strong negative opinion of the Night Market.
Personally, I'm stuck in a difficult place between wanting the rewards before they're taken away and not wanting to subject myself to the impossible-to-solo content. At one point, I got stuck deep in the Skittering Precinct and didn't want to quit back to the plaza because there was a quest objective right near me surrounded by enemies. Bless my guild, because they formed a full 12-player group to come rescue me; unfortunately, it was a mess of people at different stages in the introductory quests struggling to figure out what they were supposed to do, some guy saying that my group marker was invisible and that he had no idea where I was, one or two people in completely different districts, and one or two others barking conflicting orders the entire time - the group quickly crumbled because nobody knew what they were supposed to do.
At some point, I realized that I had spent ~6 hours shambling around the zone, constantly questioning why that thing was lighting up or those things were exploding, not having any sense of direction, and having my resources and health drained from 100% to 0% in 2.5 seconds with no discernible cause.
My Impression: Who thought this was a good idea? Who designed this? This is not as player-accessible as they made it sound. My guildmates and I joked that the Night Market was actually set in Ohio (the Ohio meme).

Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
It was fun with the premade group and was fun with random groups.
Also it was fun solo (soft-grouped) when some random players ran around.
This night I ressed more people then for a month in vet trials
Roaming dune ripper is awesome!
The thing I don't like is consuming the keys to obtain other ones. It will turn out grindy fast, I guess

The first time it happened I just Googled it and discovered what it was about. The player isn't being reported or actioned for anything. It's just informing them why they were disconnected and how to prevent it.
While it seems to me that it’s meant to be informative, this use of the term “messaging” is very technical. The message assumes that players will know that technical meaning, which many do not.
Explanatory text must be clear to be successful. When it results in confusion, especially when that means people have to resort to searching online or asking others, that signals the messaging should be clarified.
Since they include an example (“e.g. spamming”), they could expand on that to clarify that add-ons or lag may also be the source of the “messaging.” Listing only one player-sourced culprit implies the blame is on the player, and saying “please avoid” further implies the cause is within the player’s control.
A message such as “You have been dropped for excessive messaging. This may be due to spamming chat, add-on errors, or high latency.” would be more informative and clearer.

Just hopping in to say the Night Market is the most fun I've had playing ESO in a while. Outstanding content drop.
Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
They sure didn't make it for me. I only went in to get the house and I won't step foot in there again. What gets me is they did this exact same thing with Craglorn when it was introduced as an "Adventure Zone" and it failed miserably. And the Night Market sounds like that version of Craglorn on steroids.
What I want to know is what made anyone think this would have even a remote chance of being successful now?
I will be very curious what all the players that are loving it now will think when the new has worn off and there are a lot less players for them to group with.

I'm missing several mounts and it also weirdly removed the chest piece of one outfit that I've found so far. Check your stuff and submit a support ticket.

Hey @Apollosipod what is your support ticket number, please?
The issue has been fixed! Thanks to you and the support team!
Has it been fixed for all players?
I did just get a message that said “16 collection sets updated”…is this the fix?
Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
(Also the blue and green look waaaaaaaay too much alike there’s always bottom rows mirrors I can’t tell apart, especially as they’re all moving at the same time)
Re: Night Market: Getting started and basics
Too complicated unless you are a professional gamer.
Re: Night Market Opinion Poll
Who did they make this for? My guess would be for the 1% definitely not for average players. I strongly dislike being railroaded into group play. This game is becoming less and less like TES every patch.
Re: Official Night Market Feedback Thread
The fear of missing out is too huge with this event. A whole mythic and monster set needing 10k favor against such hard content is crazy. It's going to take 3 or 4 hours each day for weeks just to get 10k.
