Don't give up, ESO!

Like Sgt. Scott points out in Stargate: SGU, "It is amazing how quick you can get jaded to this stuff." I realize there are still some problems, but we're working through them. Honestly, if I didn't feel what was already in the game was worth the $15 dollar investment I wouldn't have stayed subbed since early access.

The world of Tamriel truly is in a league of its own. I still find myself frequently stopping and thinking to myself, "wow." The graphical design, realism, and scale never cease to amaze me, along with all the immersive detail, like songs that stick in your mind for days and the sheer volume of fully voiced dialogue which compliment the wonderful storytelling.

I feel ESO is like an icebreaker of "old school" plowing steadily through the frigid seas of post-modern meh. Navigating the looming bergs of fear, sadness, and disappointment that have come to define this landscape, where so much is neglected for the greed of so few, ESO proudly declares "I was there."

Too often we see truly outstanding feats of creativity and passion crushed beneath these floes, or by the weight of all expectations of entire generations struggling to find their place on the same life boat.

Here all are welcome. Here, we all have a home, a place to call our own.

It is no small task, to carry the spiritual torch through these blackest of years. Many will fall, yet through our collective efforts, we may yet see hope through to a future worth looking forward to.

As long as you're wearing light armor and a destro staff, right?

Very amusing, guys.

I meant what I said.

These posts while I applaud your dedication are missing a key consideration.

An MMO is a massive leisure time investment. While the game they have is worth $15 - is it worth my time. Could I be spending that time on another game or watching the FOTM on TV (True Detectives S2 hurry). I agree in many way the game is in a league of its own. Unfortunately in many ways, the ways that matter they have blundered :
- Vet levels is an example,
- Stick and Dress homogenisation
- turning Craglorn into a Shadow grind and log off at V14
- Arena being too long with no real reward and no way to save progress,
- First boss of Serpents being overtuned to the point where its hard to get people to group back to it
- Poor balance between magicka and stamina never fixed despite months of protests
- Unbalanced PVP just a zerg fest
- No solo end game anything
- Nothing really to progress toward as a v14

These above can be game breakers for people indeed many have left already for these and others. So you can make the most beautifully fitted out night club - put the hottest dancers in there but if the crowd don't like the music it will be empty

Same thing here.
