Jesh and I had some fun with our accounts for Jester's Fest




That's right, 4 clowns

You have to be more precise with your issue. If you write your reports like this post you will get nowhere. Support rightfully shouldn't take actions against players based on vague allegations of trolling.

That is indeed extremely annoying. I’m surprised no one else has complained about it yet... does no one play dungeons? It’s very irritating when a message suddenly pops up during a boss fight. I had the task of killing 20 shadowy daedras... It kept popping up in the dungeon all the time. Really annoying. Please change this!

There have been tons of people complaining about it in one of the pinned feedback threads.

Agreed that it's really annoying. Make it like endeavors - claim it automatically in the background.

PTS testing had this at about a 1/5 chance per day, so anyone consistently playing events is going to get most of the fragments for free if this is the model going forward. Over the course of a year, there would be a few gaps where you have to spend the Trade Bars.

Compared to the system before where there was 0 chance to get these sorts of fragments for free, this seems way, way more generous.

Please add this it's so annoying to have all the items carry around all the time. I don't understand why we still don't have this. These armory slots even cost real money if you want more

If you google "define excursion" you will get 'a short journey or trip, especially one taken as a leisure activity' and 'a deviation from a regular activity or course'.

Question as a non-native English speaker: How clear is the focus on leisure? My native language also knows the word "excursion" (though written slightly differently), but it has a strong focus on the aspect of education (in English that would basically be a "field trip") and science (closest in English would probably be "research expedition" - in the real world that would mean: Exploring a yet unknown region, charting it, researching the geography, animals and plants of the region, etc). Historically (17th/18th century), it was also used for short war campaign.

What I'm trying to make sense of is if the usage of "excursion zone" hints more on some short, more or less "guided" storyline through the place, or if the focus is exploration, which would hint as a bigger zone.

Even if you were not interested in the story, you got a massive new zone to explore with dungeons and delves, new antiquities to dig up, new lore books, new NPC characters to meet, new towns to explore with unique furnishings, new trader spots for guilds and so on. That's all gone now, and let's face it everything in the Tomes and Trade Bar stores is cosmetic junk that makes no difference to gameplay.

While I'd also have prefered a well-designed chapter with a well-written story, I think we need to be realistic: Quality was dropping from year to year, the writing got worse, which to me simply looks like they just can't keep that standard anymore - creating that much content a year while keeping a good quality. So considering that, I'm fine with smaller zones and storylines though I'm still sceptical if the quality will improve or not.

We do get new lorebooks in the Night Market, by the way. There are new characters around. The two stories in summer, the High Seas event, the Sages Vault, and the new Favor and Rumour systems will probably also introduce new locations, npcs and possibly lorebooks. It's different to how the zones were, of course. But it's not nothing at all.

It sucks liking fantasy games and being a biologist at the same time, some creature designs are either too cartoony or miss small things (proportion/detail-wise) that would make a huge difference, immersion speaking. But that's just me I guess. I've already told my feedback, I hope it's heard. Werewolves don't always need to have "Monsters Design Tropes".

Zerith was gloriously written. After the trajectory that ESO's writing has been on, it's nice to see that there are still some lines that they can knock it out of the park.

I actually have an entire character idea specifically because Zerith got me interested in that part of the lore.

Garrus Sharp is still my ride-or-die, and Basti is my bro back home, but it felt really good to bring Zerith along. I hope that the next set of Companions we get (pls new Classes!) will be much more along the Zerith side in terms of story as opposed to the Tanlorin side.
