    According to this, ZOS needs to make an ad showing cats playing ESO as Khajiit and utilize youtube as the delivery system.

    Because everyone knows the internet is for funny cat videos.

    More Khajiit is always an good thing, except then they are guards trying to stop this one for looking inside chests.

    And as someone said earlier for ESO an superbowl add is an message in it self.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    But it's not targeted at you. You are ALREADY an ESO player. The ad is targeted at people who don't play ESO yet. As in potential NEW players.

    By now everyone who's more or less aware of what's happening "on the internet" (call it "gamers", "nerds", "geeks", "techies", whatever) will know about ESO and have tried/not tried it already. No market share to gain on this side on the audience. Such an ad is not targeted at people like us. It's targeted at people who are more outside this little "internet gaming techie world". It's also targeted at investors and competitors, as a pure muscle show like "we've got the money to buy a superbowl spot, and we're releasing new content. We're there, we're strong".

    Valid point honestly the handful of folks that whizz and moan incessantly on this forum are the last people ZoS (or anyone else for that matter ) wants to connect with, Blizzard talked about advertising like when they were at their zenith their marketing and the reasons behind it were solid. Honestly I think hearing the hate machines disdain over the decision pretty much solidifies that they did the right thing.

    Hello everyone,

    This post is to let you know that we've had to remove a few posts from the thread. Please do try and keep the discussion related to the commercial that was aired rather than focusing on real world professions/incomes. As always be sure to keep the Forum Rules in mind to prevent the derailment of the thread.

    Thank you for understanding.

    And.. here it is..



    I hope this brings in a lot of new players!

    I feel like they missed a golden opportunity there. If they had added one of the voiced lines from the trailer (presumably the last bit) and that beautiful Morrowind soundtrack over top of the video it would've gotten a lot more people interested. Those are the kinds of things that make a trailer interesting and stand out (I know it did for me plus the nostalgia for the original Morrowind game... my eyes might've watered a bit lol). Regardless, however, I do agree. I hope this brings in more players and gets ESO the support they deserve.

    There you go, I just summed up every sports player in every sports game ever. (For ladies' sports, simply switch a couple words out and *bam* it's true again.)

    WoW.....millennials.... SMH

    They don't understand or care about athleticism or the skill it takes to play sports at the professional level, let alone in the Super Bowl. Those players are almost superhuman, and perform with talent and execution in amounts that 99% of people in the world will never approach in any venture they do. There is a reason those guys get paid millions of dollars.

    Because of the invisible forces of supply and demand?

    They could have at least had the line "Return swiftly Morag Tong and bring any allies you meet. Morrowind has need of you all.".

    Again, ZOS/Bethesda prove they have no idea what they are doing with this IP. The game is good but this advertisement was such a waste.

    @Osteos There was a commercial. It just wasn't very good. If you had your back turned to the television you wouldn't have known it was for ESO since it was 30 seconds. There was zero V/O.

    For most, if not all people, the spot played prior to regulation time.

    Hence, why articles called it a "Pre-Superbowl Slot"

    And based on the follower-to-interaction ratio, the Super Bowl engagement on Twitter fell flat.

    It had to have aired during the pre-game because I watched every commercial once the game started and it wasn't there which is pretty disappointing.

    Tom Brady plays ESO

    Uses cheat engine, gap closes into keeps, multiple mundus exploit, and tea bags you after using a proc set.

    Sounds like you're jealous.
    He's a 4 time super bowl mvp, and you probably live in your mom's basement.
