I just spent two hours looking for poultry for a writ and I enjoyed every minute of it. I fought some monsters, explored a cave and met some people. Found my poultry and did my crafting. Looked at the clock to see that two hours had flown by. Stuff like this is what I really enjoy in a game.

Eshelmen✭✭✭✭✭It's the small things like this that make this game amazing.
It definitely doesn't help that I'm A.D.D either.
I'll log in to do one task, and then along the way I'll jump to something else to do "just real quick" , and then another and another and then it's time to log off..
Next time! Next time I'll do it! haha

✭Yep, this game definitely has the old TES time-warp syndrome, and I love it.
Late last night, I decided to tackle one last quest before logging off, and headed for the dungeon I needed to clear for it. But whoops, on the way a Dark Anchor dropped pretty much in front of me, so I angled off the original route to go clear that. But then I noticed a haunted ruin nearby. Once that was cleared, I saw a Mundus Stone I hadn't visited yet on top of a nearby mountain, and on my way to finding the path up I encountered a house full of hags. One Mundus Stone and an hour later, and I realized I hadn't even done the original quest I'd set out to do. XDLiving vicariously through my characters.
My Girls:"If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"
Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

✭I enjoy it, but my wife hates it sometimes!
Many a "one second, just finishing this x,y,z" has turned into 2hrs of lost time.
Glad you are having fun!2 -

On the other hand my 7 year old is showing some interest in creating a pretty little bosmer princess, guess I need to show her the ropes!2 -

dannymcgr81b14_ESO✭✭✭✭No. I played when the game came out but had to leave for a long time. Just came back and haven't joined a guild yet. I've just been trying out different characters and going through the starting islands.0

✭✭Love just wandering around - even with alts have found bits previously missed in some areas.
'Just finishing......whatever. ' is often heard in my house - like that my teenagers now get to see how annoying it is!0 -

P.S. I also really enjoy small things in this game. In most cases it actually lives up to an MMORPG name and sort of gives it a new level.PC/EU 800 CP.

It really is pretty damn good.
I remember playing the game at PAX East and being excited about it, then trying the beta and being really disappointed.
I started again a few months ago after trying to love FFXIV for the 10th time. (small quality of life things like the inventory, and the complete lack of customization of builds really turned me off) I found a game with fantastic writing, interesting quests, and almost too much customization.
I'm consistently happy with the writing, having fun with quests, and I'm only level 35. I haven't gotten close to actually theory crafting a build yet.
Game just keeps getting better too. Keep it up ZOS1 -

Yes, awesome game.. but that dang provisioning thing. Took me a while to learn I have to get recipes and cook to level up on provisioning skill. This seems to be one of the harder task to level up in. You don't get much at all for cooking something and have find and cook tons of chicken breasts and pork to level up. Sorry, chub loons and horkers, you all are dying for a good cause. Lol!
I know it's a good game and all.. the better aspect is doing all you can and what you need to get XP to reach 501 CP. I wonder though, all those 501s running around. What are they doing? I wonder, when I finally hit 501, will I see anything more to do in this game or anything more I can enjoy. It's a long road of killing beasties and cronies, trials and dungeons, and keeping on those repeatable quests and world bosses. You're pretty should have gotten all the achievements, by the time you get your 501. I don't know.. just some thoughts or rambling..Edited by GreenhaloX on June 22, 2016 12:45PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Despite of its weaknesses this game is one of the best MMOs i have ever played. After Age of Conan failed ive searched for a long time other non-manga MMO and finaly i found ESO, great story line, beautyful locations that have insane amount of details, guild stores, diversity while creating your perfect build, sieges! Even crown store is healthy (i was concerned when ZOS announced that were going to b2p model but as for now i dont have any issues with crown store). The only games that was able to drag me from ESO was Witcher 3 and Fallout 4 and that says a lot.Say no to Toxic Casuals!
I am doing my best, but I am not a native speaker, sorry.
"Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 24 DLCs. 40 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game." - @AlexanderDeLarge0 -

✭I often get side tracked while trying to complete a quest...I actually love it. Although it creates a conflict with the completioist side of my personality. It's like that annoying fly you have to swat but keep missing (in a good way).
You know painful but awesome at the same time. I really do enjoy this game, I love the pure entertainment and as far as bugs I just honestly have not had that much of a problem. Support tickets I have submitted have been answered and I can genuinely say my experience has been good. Yep I do love this game.0 -

That's when you really having fun. When time doesn't matter and seems to go just as fast as you can with speed pots. My wife and I got home from a movie a while back at 11:00pm on a Saturday night. We weren't tired yet so we hopped on the game to see what was happening in Cyrodil. There was a huge battle going on at the Alessia Farm. By the time it was over and done with, it was almost 2am yet seemed like only 30 minutes had gone by.
I love the game when that happens. Some of the battles I've had in Azura of late are like that. Wave after wave of enemy trying to siege a keep. Such good times!NA Server - Kildair1
