I have played Playstation 1
I have played xbox original
I played Nintendo 64.
We played all the games.
If a game was too hard or angered us way to much we just tossed it out and enjoyed the games that gave us fun.
We didn't voice ourselfs in forums.
Life was simple.
We all ways bought the lastest games.
I think we sould all use the old morrals from years gone by if ESO angers or is unplayable don't be a baby and cry on a webpage because your not on the company pay roll its not your website. Just toss the bloody game out. There are loads of games that E3 just told us about go buy a replacement.
Lets all have some commonsense about this take action not words.

    People tend to complain because They like it :smile: They want to see it do well and become better.

    It's important to voice change otherwise change does not happen.

    remember just missing things? before wiki's when strategy guides were rare but fricken glorious.
    JRPG's were actually good.
    games were sold complete and didn't have DLC.
    playing single player missions with friends co-op was multiplayer.
    the only forms of cheating were screen peeking.

    don't get me wrong there was terrible things back in the day (oddjob and proxy mines in goldeneye anyone?), but games had a lot of soul back then before they were used as a tool to make money first and a good game second.

    The difference between then and now on this matter is that games like this are actively updated by a team of developers that are in some degree accessible to us. The complaining is an outcry to these developers to take something into consideration when developing the next patch. Some people are less constructive than others, some more. Some developers are more receptive to their community, make better decisions, or are better staffed and funded.

    People complain because they like the game and think it could be better, they don't just drop it and leave because they don't want another game as much as they want this.

    Maybe you should leave the forums and go back to your old morals. Instead of coming here and crying like a baby about people who are voicing thier concerns about a game they enjoy. This is what the second thread you have made with the exact same topic?

    Games then were also fixed. You bought it and it stayed as it was. This game is not fixed, it changes often. A character made 2 years ago is completely different today than it was then. They also only involved 1-4 players. It's a bit different when you start talking about an MMO.

    And they had an actual manual - often 80 pages or more. My partner is collecting older games in their original box - I have seen some of those manuals, they were awesome in the past.

    That's a valid justification for constructive criticism, but not for the endless whining that we see here.

    Yes this game does change often, like all MMOs. It's the evolutionary style of MMOs that is part of their attraction. People need to recognise that and adapt as necessary to the changes instead of coming here to QQ as soon as there's the slightest change to their character. Change is what keeps a long-term game fresh.

    I am not old enough to have experienced it myself - I just judge from those video game boxes my partner is collecting. Most of these games are not playable, because the discs are old and cannot be read anymore or have other issues. Some have even still floppy discs, but who has nowadays a reader for those still. And I doubt that they are still readable.

    First MMOs had maintenances that lasted several DAYS, people weren't bitching all day about that in the boards. Now if there is a maintenance 2 days in a row people come crying rivers and some even dare asking for a compensation for their lost playtime.

    First MMOS were all sub-based so you could imagine people were complaining all the time on boards cause they felt entitled to as paying customers. Guess what ? No.

    Different times, different generations of "gamers" I guess.

    Absolutely - for me for example I grew up with this technology and I cannot even imagine to live without it. Or to not be able to be online in some form - I even take a satellite phone with me, when I fly above territory, where it is not likely to get a cell phone connection - but Iridium is everywhere, I will always be able to get online and read emails and stuff - comes at a high price per minute, but to be without the ability to go online is a terrible thought to me. This might be hard to understand for someone, who had a time in his life without the technology, but to me it is absolutely essential. I am from a generation for whom a smart phone is a mobile computer and not a phone - some older people actually phone with this thing, while I use nearly exclusively internet services like email and other online media.

    Im sorry but.... what? People most certainly were "bitching" all day in those times too when the game wasnt working as it supposed to.

    And i must say im quite tired of all this "back in my days..." arguments. Im not old by any means but 38 years let me see the early stage of pc gaming and yet still i find it silly to put it mildly to argument that we should be happy with what we got and be thankful to ZOS because "back in my days..." we had to play on wooden computers and splinters from mouse were getting into our hands. Please - i judge ZOS performance only in comparison to other current year developers and in that ZOS in my personal ranking quite low, not lowest of all times, but still quite low.

    Nothing to take personal at all.
    Now if l could only work out why l keep coming here. Then l could stamp that habbit out too.

    If l have broken "same topic" Cumunity Rules.
    How can l help you?
    Ways to contact a moderator!
    Comunity Rules has a Elder Scrolls Team email address. When you send the email sending to host fails every time.
    How else can l help you?
    We are told in the Cumunity Rules to contact
    Help/elderscrollsoline.com
    Guess what you go there and its only a robot that answers information only. Very much a one way conversation.
    How else can l help you?
    If you know the name of a moderator you can fill out the online form on this website to give them a private message. You press send and it disapears and no one ever see's that message ever again.
    How else can l help you?
    You can ask a moderator on forums for everyone to read. Sure you will offend a moderator. He will delete your thread on the spot and give you a horrible warning in private saying if it happends again your account will be banned.
    How else can l help you?
    I posted a forum thread here asking a while back.
    How can l manualy delete my account at ESO.
    Guess what not one person could or was alowed to answer.
    Sorry l tried everything to help you out but l have run out of help for you. Bye

    Yes getting back on topic.
    Wii U Zombie game was so hard.
    I got a refund the next day.
    One of the Final Fantasys was so hard l snaped the disk in two.
    I am compleaty hopless.
    There l go breaking the rules about not talking about other games.

    As l am talking before bed.
    Dear moderator,
    Before you take any action on this thread if you are compelled to do so. Please take a very good read of the "How else can l help you?" as l have tried all these options on this webpage and found most of them don't even work or only work in part when the public are educated to use those options.
    As for me l don't want to be banned only because l want to figger out what my dependancy is that has me coming back.
    Once l work out that need l should be able to remove myself as l will put a replacement in this broken websites place. Please give me a little more time and l should leave on my own in a few days time.
