    ESO is not really a traditional MMO, so we don’t use that term much around the office
    Player feedback is absolutely something we take into account though when determining future fixes or new systems. One really important bit of feedback that we took to heart was that immersion and story are super important
    The key for us though has been to try and engage with the player base as much as possible. It’s not easy, and you can’t react or comment on every piece of feedback, but just letting them know that you are there, listening, is huge.
    I think they can have a really, really long life, especially if you continue to keep the player base engaged with updates, fixes, and new content. We are committed to keeping the game fresh

    There's a WAR frees hard out there that would get my vote for best MMO right now.
    Unsubbed and no longer playing, but still checking the Alliance War forum for the lulz.

    Poxheart Nightblade
    The Murder Hobo Dragon Knight - Blackwater Blade
    Knights of the WhiteWolf

    uhm.. Sorry to break your doom & gloom bubble, but ESO does deserve the 2015 best MMO and it is probably going for 2016 as well.

    It has absolutely zero competition. Have you see what's "hot" in the current MMO market?

    -Wow is a 10+ year old game that all it still has is nostalgia.

    -GW2 is just a braindead hack n' slash MMO that can't hold semi-serious players for more than a couple of months to the game.

    -SWTOR is also called TORtanic for a reason. Going free to play helped a bit but it's still going downhill...

    -Wildstar is closing.

    -LOTRO is a complete embarrassment of its former self.

    -RIFT lost every positive thing it had the moment it became a massive P2W game.

    Check out BDO. Based on my experience thus far it's a strong contender.

    Yeah.. every game is the best MMO ever when it gets released. Tell me of your opinion after 2 months.

    From what I hear BDO has

    -No PvE end game (and I mean nothing at all)
    -Consumables on 3 sec cd... (Hello 1997 gaming)
    -One of the most ridiculous online stores ever
    -Grinding mobs to lvl up

    I'm still having a blast pvping in the Oceanic time zone. We average around 2 bars, but still hours of non-stop fights to be had. Come join the fun!
