Quakecon - Just wanted to say, these updates are fantastic!

ZOS you have really, really excelled yourselves here and pulled a massive success out of the bag. Having read the summary and watched the vids over at Dulfy, I'm more excited and confidence about this game's future than I've ever been.

The sheer number of large updates coming is (I think) more than I've seen from any other mmo I've played - it shows that our sub fees are certainly not going to waste and that while you've been taking hits in the press and on these forums, you've kept your heads down and been working your asses off to continually improve this game.

The justice system is really going to give a full Elder Scrolls vibe, the new armor skins are awesome (hope we get style tombs for them at some point too) and the new solo and group maps look pretty swish too.

And facial animations for NPCs, they're such and improvement over the current animations and will certainly make a huge difference in my questing when levelling alts.

Thanks again, the future is looking very bright, can't wait to see what else you guys have up your sleeves!

Edit: For those who haven't seen what's in store, the ever diligent Dulfy has the full report here.

Yup i'm converted.
No more negative posts by me anymore.
Quakecon panel has instilled the confidence I needed to see this is only the beginning of the ESO legacy.

I went straight and bought 3 Guar Plush and will definitely be renewing my sub when it's up in a couple weeks.
Take my money...take it all!!, just so I can kill NPC's as I soon will be able too

While i agree they do look good, i try not to get to excited About mmo patches. A long history of mmo playing has taught me better. But i can hope ESO is different.

The one thing that does disappoint is as i watch these clips, i cant help but feel yes, the game was released before it was done.

Ohh there's bound to be bugs, it's almost unavoidable. But I keep thinking about the sheer number of man hours and the investment it must've taken to put this lot together - it's a metric tonne of content.

And of course they've managed to pull this together in just four months of live gametime! It's incredible! Give it another year and who knows how much more will be added?

The only thing, if there was anything, that gave me pause, is the mention of dailies - I do hope they 'obligatory' simply by having something you cannot get anywhere else?

That Imperial Daedric armour has me sold. It's bloody amazing. Not to mention the justice system, it doesn't look washed up and slapped on, they definitely took time in it. And they had me when he said "Stop right there, criminal scum!". I've never been so excited to pay in-game money that I don't have for going on a killing spree.

ItsGlaive

Agreed! I'm looking forward to hunting down criminals too - an inspired implementation of open world PVP that doesn't impact on those who don't want to do it.

Want to stay safe? Pay your fines or don't be a crook, for the rest of you, I'll be seeing you!

I'm not sold until they put these into the game. They can say all the want. We already knew that had plans for a lot of that stuff, but whether or not they actually get it to us in a timely and working manner is another matter all together.

Let's say they'll put everything in ESO what they talked about yesterday. How much time or we talking here? A year? 6 months? With the 4 to 6 weeks update schedule we can get lots of these things before the year is over I'd imagine.

Again and again you just said wow, but at the end you sat with a nagging worry... What about crafting?

What is going to happen to the important of the 100+ skill points and several hundred hours crafters has put into the work of gear once all these new item sets and season gear enters the game?

They did not mention crafting once, so I worry a bit.

What? You didn't see that Imperial Daedric that can only be crafted in Imperial city?? Glass armor/motif?? Dwemer motif? Crafting is gonna remain awesome as is the case now!

pema

I think I was half asleep at that part....

Well I hope crafted gear still will be the source of the best overall gear in the game, this is one of the main reasons for me to play this game because I HATE HATE HATE gear races.
