If I had to choose one thing...

If I had to choose one thing to add/fix to ESO, I would choose to fix the way jumping works. And when I say jumping, I mean hopping up and down. I'm not sure if this is annoying to anyone else, but whenever I have my character jump, it's usually late (like I go to jump on something, click the button, and it jumps after I try and move forward) and just ridiculously unhelpful—usually to the point where it's like, "why did I even bother jumping?" Take jumping over a gap for example. The jumping actions make it, not impossible, but very aggravating to use. I think there should even be a double jump action so that way you're able to jump higher then 2 cm (it's an exaggeration).

But yeah, jumping sucks in this game in my opinion. I still do it, but it sucks. Is that what life is? Life sucks sometimes but you still do life?

What do you guys think? (about jumping, not life)

I hate how it gets stuck on little walls etc. never mind the endless roof slide.


BUT, if you played in Beta... man that jumping was so bad. Its far better now.

I don't know how often I RAN INTO water instead of jumping over it, just because the game doesn't react in time. My reacion is the same like yours, "why did I even bother jumping?".
The other jumping issue I come across fairly often is when I try jumping on top of something not too high, but my character can't make it for some reason and glides down again in slooowwwmotion. Annoying as hell. In Wrothgar it can take aaages to land on the ground again, depends on the angle from where I started jumping and glide down the long/high side of a rock. During that time, the player is unable to interact with anything and has to wait.

Game reacts fine, sounds like latency and fps lag (both very different things), from your end as your computer has to render your location, slow PC/Ram/Graphics card and dedicated Vram can really impact on game enjoyment.

The seemingly endless slide while jumping is frankly irritating however, so defo feel you on that lol.

They broke jumping with TG along with 300 other game elements.

They have acknowledged it, likely to get fixed in 6 months.

The slooooooow slide...

If you include that jumping on rocks , walls / over objects and that annoying slow time fall effect happens then YES, by Sithis YES!!!

Falling like a feather in x4 slowed time while everything around you is real time and you are unable to cast or do anything is the worst
