I am a big fan of some of the changes and fixes since I played last. I played from beta to about 6 months in and came back recently. But there are some things that really if you're being honest are completely unacceptable at this stage in an MMO's life.
Group finder tool, still only works sometimes. There are still bugs with it where there will be no lead and after someone leaves the group you cannot use the tool to find a replacement. How is it that for over a week I have been unable to use the "tool" to find a group for the vet pledge daily? Granted, it's on a dps toon but still, a week is a bit much. Finding a group in chat is hard in that I would have to sit in a zone and wait while I spam zone chat looking for a group. Therefore stopping my proggression to wait around.
The bugs that still exist where while in combat you lose the ability to use any of your action bar. I'm not talking about negate magic or any kind of debuff. It's a random bug that happens and pretty sad.
I just had a bug where I could not use my left mouse click button in game. I alt-tabbed to close the game (which of course I was able to use the left click button in order to do so). It worked fine outside the game. Having to log out/in to fix things is unacceptable this often.
The mail system. So, this far out, mail is STILL activated by logging in or zoning. How the heck hasn't it been fixed yet? If I make a purchase from the guild store it does not show up in the mail UNLESS I log out/in or zone out/in.
This isn't something that's fixable but the guild system is horrible. Showing the account name in guild chat (I realize there are add-ons for this) instead of the character name adds a lot of anonymity to the game. I could be chatting with someone and not realize they are in my guild because I don't know the name of their character. This does not breed camaraderie, which is really the main reason I enjoy mmos.
The paid beta ended a week or so ago and there are still these issues. That's kind of pathetic. I would be more than happy to give a company my money if I believe in them. ZOS hasn't earned my sub.

    1. Nothing in the crown store that interests me. Mounts and costumes do nothing for me.

    2. No new content likely until after the console release stabilizes.

    The post actually highlights all very valid issues that are long overdue addressing. Though reasons not to sub isn't necessarily the best title. Lack of benefit is a simple reason.

    Is that enough reason to stay subbed though? I have been debating this myself. If XP were that important to me I'd be wearing the ring of mara.

    this thread should not exist, its against anything constructive and its results will be incouraging people to leave.
    its probably also against TOS.

    well pirhana got reason: ) pay the sub or go out from competition : ) the point is not the 14$/m of sub that is nothing for 99% of us. the problem is the support that zenimax gives back to the subbed users, i mean, report an hacker without recive any answer in 15days is really really sad. introduce new system inside the game with random value like the trial exp one, or the siege dmg one are not professional things, you got pts for test them and you got plenty of money for pay a damn professional player for testing them for you.. why add it to the live servers lol. if you really care about money from sub and crown , PLEASE help the players that cares about this game, i love it really and i'm sad about so many mistakes.

    Most of the bugs mentioned by the OP I've never experienced in game so I would assume its either a system issue or addon issue.

    As for me, the 10 bonus xp and getting all content isn't a selling point. Every content release has 1 or more bugs/exploits to it and is mobbed the first week or so of release. What about that sounds enticing to pay a monthly fee for. Additionally if you unsub, you still have the option to buy the content you want to access, so its a win win. Let the monthly guys get the new content through beta and then wait for a sale price or bundle pack to buy it up.

    I kind of rushed the title/post as I was seriously irritated by the mouse click bug that had just happened. I definitely could have come up with a better title. But, even though I haven't been on the forums for a while, I'll bet these issues have been brought up many times so I'm kind of beating the proverbial dead horse. This was more of a rant than anything else. Could have been more constructive for sure.

    The title isn't the best descriptor of the actual point. I rushed it. My bad. The point was the issues that I brought up have existed for too long and it's getting annoying.

    I don't care about Crowns.

    I don't care about XP bonuses.

    I care about content.

    I care about fun.

    If I don't get content for my money, or if I don't get fun for my money, ZOS does not get my money.

    They expressly stated they're not going to add more content at least until June, so they better make sure they add some fun if they want my money (fix everything that's broken, polish all of the things, and I will enjoy that greatly). Keep your Crowns, @ZOS, I don't care. Keep your ESO+ bonus, I don't care.

    ZOS makes gaming content, I buy gaming content, and that's the entire nature of our developer to consumer relationship. They can either improve the quality of that content, or improve the quantity of that content, or both, but with either in a manner consistent with what I personally want, or they will not get my money. They may get your money if they give you things that you personally want, but there in lies the problem: we don't all game for the same reason, and we don't all want the same thing. What I might praise and gladly pay for, others might make angry You Tube videos about with thousands of thumbs up votes. Can't please everyone.
