Motiviation to play the game?

Elektrakosh

I'm not motivated to play this game anymore. Orsinium is just going to be nice and shiny until you find out that it may be just another limb crudely sewn on in order to make money. Thing is, that limb may just shrivel up and be yet another waste of money for those who want something new and tasty.

Just fix the bugs. Then consider at length to make a decent dlc with content that people can get their gaming teeth into.

I enjoy the beautiful scenery. I love exploring. I love just wandering and taking screenshots. It's an interesting and beautiful world.

I enjoy the soundtrack as well.

I also like gathering and opening chests... even if I didn't need the items it's sort of an 'ooo shiny' compulsion.

I love making characters, coming up with their personalities and backstories. I don't mind playing through familiar stuff with a new character because it's new to them, and I enjoy trying out different skills and playstyles. I get attached to my characters and that's not going to change once I complete all the quests or other content with them.

Sometimes it's just fun to go kill monsters/bad-guys, and I like the visual effects and general way combat works in this game. It doesn't matter if I've already killed that boss or completed that dungeon before, it's still fun to me.

I enjoy helping other players, giving them stuff to research, food for the writ they can't find a recipe for, answering questions about where something is or how something works or whatever. I enjoy healing too, if I'm passing by and spot someone who looks in over their head, I like to help out.

I enjoy running around with friends in the game, just doing whatever. It's a fun thing to 'do' together while simultaneously enjoying the comfort of home.

I tend to be loyal and don't really spread myself thin between lots of games. I'm sure there are plenty of others I'd enjoy, but I'm here, I enjoy it despite various bugs and annoyances, so I don't see much reason to look elsewhere.

You're an awesome person.Please keep helping others and all that you do.I try to help when I can,and add to my guilds bank,etc.There's more than just gear,points,levels,and money.It's a community,..if you let it be. :}

Give it time... The problem right now is they are intent on attempting to drag content out to cater to what I would classify as the soon to be college dropout who spends 18 hours a day playing 1 character to be the l33t3st.

As a result, everything has become a chore. So while you are playing through existing content everything will be fine. When you run out of basic content and hit the hamster wheels, then it will wear on you.

What do you mean "give it time"? This is what the game is evolving into. With B2P the college dropouts who spend 18 hours a day playing 1 character are the target audience. They're the whales, the ones who pay the bills. It's just going to get more and more like this of course. Have you never played a B2P/F2P MMO?

I really enjoy this game and I am not finding anything about that game that keeps me from playing it. The only downside is the big mouth trolls in zone chat that can be annoying as they Bully other players (not everyone has a thick skin and can easily handle it) and yeah I feel for them. Thank goodness for IGNORE! Otherwise I think what keeps me going is to theory craft new builds and try them out. The more they keep offering us in the game the better!

In what zone chat do they bully? And where?

I purposefully play really slow so i never have the feeling of "what to do next".... Also i keep some other games alive such as FF14 or SWOR.

I have messed with SWTOR but if I don't play it first after ESO combat it feels clunky to me. Currently running an alt to Veteran and playing around with my lower level veteran characters. It is just a bummer that there doesn't seem enough at end game to keep me playing that build.
