"We can't add much more fur because of technical reasons, so we will add longer fur where nobody asked, oh, there is nothing left for bald places, they will stay so."
Please, transplant some fur from mohawk and back to better places.

And I very-very hope mohawk and those silly pointed ears will be not so ridiculous in correct pose.

However, it really look better than first version. There is a lot of things that can be improved, but at least It doesn't look sick and mangy now. Not yet something I will want to play, but now it is not a thing I would strongly avoid.

Engagement vs enjoyment (they’re not the same)

Engagement (what studios measure):
• Logins per day/week
• Time spent
• Tasks completed
• System interaction (tomes, passes, currencies)

Enjoyment (what players feel):
• “That was worth my time”
• Memorable moments
• Meaningful progress
• A sense of place and purpose

You can have high engagement with low enjoyment.

Chapters lost their appeal very fast.

Not for me. Farming for cosmetics is what I find boring.

If they would stop doing these tests (as the very vocal anti-Vengeance players demand it), what should ZOS be doing instead? If the answer is nothing, then you've pretty much doomed Cyrodiil for everyone.

Just stop taking away normal Cyrodiil, it’s not a hard concept. They have to though cause participation in Vengeance is abysmal when they run side by side.

I suspect it won't be used all that much even by those that asked for it. And I don't think it will be used for questing, but rather just toggled on for world bosses, etc..

I wish the points didn't vary as much but the tasks themselves have a good mix.

This will drive regular PvPers away during peak hours as they will have nothing to do if GH is pop-locked.

Oh no, like 12 guys are gonna log out, how will the game survive.

A lot more than that will try Vengeance and actually like it, or at least find it "good enough" for waiting in queue. There are a significant number of players who log into GH because it's the only game in town, not because they love ball groups, proc sets, and one shots.

Hmm,,,, the reactions here range from enthusiastic approval to deep regret, though I’ve also come across players who actually describe the changes as “the worst update in ESO’s history.”

I don’t entirely agree with that, but I’m not thrilled either. I’m more afraid that this—or rather, the DK—is just the beginning of yet another never-ending “balancing” and “improvement” frenzy.

Sometimes it’s better to just leave things that have proven themselves over the years, as they were.
There are currently much more important “areas for improvement” that have opened up for the developers.

From what I'm seeing, it actually seems like the majority agree that the DK should be left alone. 4 people out of probably a hundred calling for nerfs isn't what I would call both enthusiastic approval and deep regret. Its more enthusiastic approval.

The support for the DK speaks for itself. By democracy, people like the route the devs are taking. You can even look at the approval through likes and awesomes on posts supporting the new DK.

I think alot of the complaints about power differences are valid, but they are misdirected and often not taking into account anything besides short-sighted nerf-buff cycles, that everyone and their mother is exhausted from experiencing time and time again in this game for the past decade.

Just let the *** unfold, because at the end of the day, this has kinda always been ESO's weak point, the cycling of nerfs and buffs, that often left some classes unusable for half a year at some points in the past(try using sorcerers before subclassing came out in anything besides a niche pvp use case, it was awful)

The consensus though is clearly very positive reactions to DK. The only negative ones im seeing are people who come from PvP, whom, btw, has always experienced the most imbalanced environment compared to PvE. They could alleviate that problem by making PvP separate instances instead of connecting it with PvE.... you know, something like Vengeance.

Fate needs you proxy.

Even if a bear does 1000 percent damage, it will not be difficult. As it stands now, I cannot even use my second skill before they are dead. And that is in all heavy, no armor sets, no cp, and sword and shield....

I still don't understand why being strong and powerful is a bad thing but I like it that way.
