Top three reasons you considered leaving.

Tabbycat

1. My PC died shortly after the launch of the game. Could not play for six months while I saved money for a new PC.

2. Fallout 4

3. Burnout.

Those are my top 3 reasons for taking breaks.

Pallio

1 Endless grind
2 RNG, see #1
3 "Balance" based on pvp, total disregard of pve impact.

This is exactly what many here are talking about in this very thread, you are on a path of self destruction, and it is no ones fault but your own.

Haa ok Freud... I'd say if someone keeps doing a thing they say they don't like or enjoy... that's the path to self destruction..

But I digress.. and this IS just another whinge thread, Zeni won't pay any attention to dumb posts about RNG sux, or Lag sux, crown crates suck, or fix something that I don't like in PVP!! Either be constructive... in a constructive post and perhaps be heard... Or, whine cos this ain't skyrim and you don't understand MMO's.. Also, load screens are not entirely Zeni's issue, more likely its either your hardware, console issues or your ISP is not up to speed!

It is.

There are a number of things that ZOS will not change. Some things they have actually come out and said they are not going to do, like global auction house. Some things they are just being quiet about, but will probably do something about, like lag, drops, and long loading screens, and they will not do it to everyone's satisfaction. Finally, there are the things that they won't do, but have not told anyone, like fixing the guild UI, RNG, etc.

Doctordarkspawn

I'ma add one.

Design focus: The design focus is overwhelmingly, in reguards to endgame content, the people who are allready good at said content. The meta crowd. There's no efforts ment to help get players into the endgame, and I see more and more new players get into vet dungeons, not meeting the meta bible requirements and geting thrown screaming from the dungeon door.

It cant continue for much longer before the game becomes stagnant.

1. Grind - first the guild questlines, And then furniture crafting.
2. Crown crates.
3. The push towards the crown store in homestead seems to be the first significant example of the crown store affecting game development. I dont like it...

Pvp

Pvp

Pvp is terrible in this game, too much focus on gear and burst damage, not enough on skill or strategy.

Pvp has lead to every single terrible balance decision in this game's history, and those changes have never once been good for pve players.

Forced pvp content to get items that have significant use in pve settings, like the tel var armor sets. When are devs going to learn that people don't like being forced to play the part of the game that only infuriates them just to do the parts they actually enjoy?

So sick of this ***.

1. Sorc nerfs (not anymore)

This, i'm not really a fan of dungeons, but i'm having to grind dungeons to get a helmet and shoulders i need for my build, I love games that has pve and pvp gear, let me grind pvp so i can buy pvp gear with alliance points.

RoamingRiverElk

1) PvP proc sets and balancing that has gone much worse since 1.5.
2) Endless grind for gear (like burning spellweave sharpened inferno) and other things
3) Rude and immature people (like teabaggers and enemies who whisper you)

Balance, lag, loading screens.

Rng is simply killing this whole master writ thing people with the same names getting master writs every day and even huge #'s as well, yet others like myself sit at 0 for the past 11 days on 8 chars, 36 writs a day for 0.

I will stop playing this game when they shut down the servers, but these are the 3 things that bother me the most about ESO, even though it's a beautiful & fun game, this should improve:

1) Performance, especially in Trials & Cyrodiil. I talk about the lag, ping, loading screen...etc

2) Crown Crates. I know, it is only "cosmetic" but I spend money on the CS, I don't mind it, but I would much rather just buy the mount/costume/whatever I want, instead of having a chance to get it from a crate.

3) The lack of rewards from achievements. I know that not every achievement should give an amazing prize, but most of the achievements only give dyes as a reward, which doesn't motivate me as much. I understand that mounts & pets are obtainable only via crown store, and it possibly bothers me because i used to play wow and got many cool cosmetics with achievements, but still, I think the rewards should be a bit more than a dye.

Many other MMO's have the same issues. Balance is something that wont be a real thing unless they bring the game back to one class. As most of the other "reasons" people post: you are still posting on the forums! So if you really hate the game, you wont even visit the forums normally. Still you linger about...says enough to me.

1.- Real life. I could have done more productive stuff with the time I spent playing.
2.- RNG and excessive grinding (see #1) made with the purpose of pushing us towards the crown store.
3.- Performance and lag.

projectscience

Adaption to change (whatever they call balance) instead of advancement through challenge. The game is going the wrong direction.

One reason: toxic players. I ran u dungeon the other night, and the tank, who I assume was a 12 y/o, asked for a pair of bracers that dropped, because he had been "farming them for 3 hours"... in fungal grhoto 1. I checked my bags, only had shoulders, so I moved on. He then went on to berate the entire group, asking "are you there?" and "is anyone in a group with him?" not specifying who he was asking about. He offered 1k for them. After the dungeon was over, and I left the group, I noticed I had 2 whispers (I don't pay much attention to chat in dungeons if things are running smoothly). The first was "bro, how much do you want bro" annoying in itself. The next was "u f****** c*** f*** u."

First off, he asked for something I didn't have, probably a mistake with wording on his part, or he thought I had something I didn't. Secondly, I was using the shoulders I assume he wanted, since that was the only thing other than weapons I got that run. I reported and ignored, even though I'm sure nothing was done.

The grind, new players with no clue, and some vulgar players are to be expected. I have enjoyed questing, it gives me a chance to try new builds, and some of the arcs are interesting. Overentitled players like this are what keep me playing solo, and quite often leaving games forever, as if I couldn't have possibly needed what he also wanted.

so terrible

1. PR spin... such as batching all the meaningful changes for a year into one DLC, calling that DLC a "chapter", charging extra for it, while telling us the other 3 DLC in the year will be just as good as former DLC
2. Crown Crates just because they're sleazy
3. Adding new inconveniences to the game so they can sell us its relief as with the rarity of furniture crafting mats

1. Champion Points
2. Grinding
3. 1&2
