    Damn, game is improving slowly but steadily!

    This game has also been dieing slowly and steadily. I was here since the closed beta, but doubt it after this update. If the nerfs and lack of content were not enough, the fact that several of the guilds turned into ghost towns didnt help.

    Its like being a soldier at the Alamo: You know its going to end badly, you wish you could get away, but the options are limited and you just took an arrow to the knee.

      Taken some breaks here and there but still playing :smile: Game has seen huge improvements since beta, though PvP still needs balance. I'm too spoiled with ESO's looks and combat, I don't think I could play another MMO.

      My Imagin monkey is safely tucked away in my collection!

      I am still using mine. Until they release another monkey pet, that is. Once they do that, I will put it away and never take it out again.

      Yeah I was looking it up as well out of curiosity. Ahh the memories and the excitement, then the rude awakening, the hardships and now, 3 years in, things are FINALLY starting to move forward. Kind of makes me think that current state of the game is what a post-beta should be, not 3 years into the game.
      I bet we've really been playing beta all this time and the "beta" was actually an alpha. It certainly feels like it.

      My Bosmer, who was created within the first 10 minutes after the game went live, never stopped using her beta monkey. It is called "Snack" and it is her emergency food reserve.

      I bet we've really been playing beta all this time and the "beta" was actually an alpha. It certainly feels like it.

      I understand the ups and downs and the rough times, but having been in alphas and betas for numerous games, honestly ESO during beta was miles more polished than some things I've seen after going gold, and I've also seen some really, really, bad alphas that probably had no business being exposed to the public in anyway at that time.


      There's some ESO things that have happened, and decisions made that have really pissed me off, but overall, at the end of the day; this game has gotten treated unfairly and it continues to happen, for whatever reason. It's a lot better than many people give it credit for.

      For instance, I experienced the same things (broken quests, server instability, etc) a certain Angry Idiot (name changed for policy reasons) on youtube did, and it being his gimmick, he blew it all out of proportion and the lemmings followed, thus turning it into "fact" for many people - when truly, the game was playable, enjoyable, and many people not only lived through it, but they enjoyed the game and thrived.


      You might be frustrated, and you probably have valid reasons to be so (I've been there and was gone almost a year when the frustration and burn out hit at once) but you and I are both here now, for a reason. Frustrations aside, we know it's a good game, we enjoy it, and we think it'll continue to be. Otherwise I, and I bet you as well, really wouldn't be here.

      Overload rework. Power Overload now does physical damage and grants you the power of a tornado: You throw a brick at the target with a light attack, and you hammer your head into that brick with every heavy attack. We have decreased its Ultimate cost, but increased the chance that you get stuck in the animation.

      I played since the beta.

      I was VR10 within 3 weeks of the game launch.

      Haven't really played since Craglorn came out because it was terrible, transferred to Xbox too.

      Played on and off. Never really got back into it.

      Just tried playing One Tamriel, and subscribed for ESO plus!

      Boys. I am hooked again!

      One Tamriel is a great change for the game. The only people i see disagree are the ones who have kept playing, have about 7 alts, and near unlimited resources. For people that disagree, they gave up on the game for a reason and One Tamriel has fixed some of those.

      Onwards and upwards for ESO!
