I do, I make stupid builds. (Nord regen heavy attack dps build /flex) and I still enjoy the game. Even if I hate your AH system. I still enjoy the game.

Now...could we get a fishing revamp? Ultima online had some of the best fishing ever. This game has one of the WORSE fishing ever.

    I still play UO sometimes now, I hope the housing in ESO will be similar to UO housing.

    I wish it had a more interactive fishing game like Stardew Valley. Instead of just clicking your mouse to haul in a fish, you have a meter on the side, and you have to keep the green bar over the fish or it starts to get away. The stronger and more valuable the fish is, the harder it is to keep the bar over the fish.
    You also have special tackle. For example, some tackle will make getting bites quicker, some make it harder for the fish to get away, others give you increased chances of hauling in treasure chests, etc. It's actually a really cool fishing system.

    I'm all for more fishing-related activities.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    I love the game played about 30 hours (maybe double honestly don't know)and feels like I haven't even scratched the surface, currently ventured into Craglorn for first time a minute ago and the place looks amazing!

    I like the game too. With the witch's buff I reached cp162 on my first character after finishing the prophet's main quest and doing just my faction quests, mages, fighters, dolmens and world bosses. I only did a few public dungeons for the shards. I did no pvp, no dungeons, no dlc content and have two factions left. This game will entertain me quite a lot more time.

    Also I did fishing. But only because the blue recipes I found so far that increase life and magicka all need fish as a component. There was no other reason for me to go fishing.

    Even the fishing in LEGO Lord of the Rings is better than the fishing in ESO...

    And they took the master fisher achievement and made it a PS4Trophy/XboxAcheivement on consoles... Most boring trophy ever?

    The fact that it is a trophy on consoles may mean that they can't change it though :-(

    Please put the Eyevea/EarthForge wayshrines back on the map?

    I also like the game for the small things to discover. E.g. I just accidently found out, that characters in character selection and character creation will perform pissy emotes when you let them turn around a few times by pushing them (not by keeping the mouse button held, just give them a push). My main just flipped me the bird doing so :smiley:

    Agreed.

    Fishing in ESO is basically another timesink and grind that requires no skill, provides no real challenge or excitement, and again features wildly varying RNG rewards. A game like this desperately needs enjoyable mini-games to add depth to the world, and a light-hearted break from the standard questing, dungeons, and pvp it's built on and limited to.

    I wish they had spent time like that finishing so many of the things that feel half done. Dont get me wrong when i see little things like this it is cool. And you are like cool!!! But then you try to find something searching several guild traders and you want to scream at the ui.
