The upcoming changes in Dark Brotherhood makes this game to me in a way refreshed. The removal of Veteran Ranks and the improvements for console players that show percentages and total amount of resource pools makes the game a bit different. The needed improvements to stamina class are coming and ofc the balance will lop-side yet again but we also have a new area that is a fan favorite for many. Lastly we have another favorite guild 'Dark Brotherhood', which many loved from skyrim. The removal of Veteran Ranks allows players both old and new to obtain the highest level in the game without the extra grind that made it annoying to make alts in the first place.

With all that said I think this is a perfect time for ZOS to fix a lot of the lag issues with the game, polish it a bit more in terms of sound and skill icon changes/upgrades; these together especially the sound will make it seem very different. Making sounds of swords clashing/hitting objects sound more rich brings new life to the game and one thing I left out some improvements in armor textures would make it better for role players. The lag in the game is pretty bad it and in PvP it's the worse; prior to TG the lag has spanned through-out PvE as well for example solo instances such as vMSA are riddled with lag and group instances such as trials/dungeons are receive that lag as well.

As this is a core game change I feel that ZOS has an opportunity to fix a majority of the issues and if they polish/enhance things on the way it would like I said before breathe new fresh air into the game (IMO).

-Discuss is this upcoming DLC a chance of redemption or is this game far from redemption?

    While there are more lore to squeeze into DLC, bug fixes will remain at No ETA stage.
    I am the very model of a scientist Salarian, I've studied species Turian, Asari, and Batarian.
    I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).
    My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian, I am the very model of a Scientist Salarian.

    Either the bug fixes are at a No ETA stage or they're progressively working on it as each DLC releases.

    One can hope! :)

    PvP lag won't be "fixed" until they introduce smaller venues of limited number of group combat that uses a different instanced server. That would cut the number of players within Cyrodiil reducing how much each player has to load to keep up. I don't think people realize having such a large PvP area means your game has to load the entire zone and everything going on inside of it to some degree.

    @phaneub17_ESO I'm curious, what kind of smaller venues? :) Like battlegrounds and arenas? :open_mouth:
