launcher window play button........

As of yesterday, it is taking upwards of a minute (or longer) between the time the launcher shows up and the "PLAY" button appears. (Whereas is used to appear almost immediately) Nothing on my system has changed so can you give me some reason why this is now happening?

I am fed up with ESO's perpetual waiting screens.......It takes minutes to load into the game, switch zones, port to a player or enter a dungeon......NOW I have to wait even before the game starts?

    I am having the same issue since yesterday. I started getting black loading screens yesterday too. I'm not sure if they are related.

    Same exact problem since yesterday (Saturday). I launch the executable, and then I have to wait 30-60 seconds for the PLAY button to show up. Fully patched. Play many times a day.

    Ditto. In some cases, to get to the game fast, I've had to open it from eso.exe in the program folder.

    It's now a shortcut on my desktop. No idea why it takes so long for Play to show up, especially if I have had to exit the game due to another error.
