    Even if we didn't these changes would still have taken place OP.



    So in a way yes, since I did it for my statue & mount.

    Didn't pre-order Morrowind. Shoulda been an option.
    If OP would've posted his thoughts as well, rather than just starting an empty poll, I wouldn't have posted this useless message either.

    I did not preorder it.

    For a casual player like me the morrowind will be a good opportunity to take a small brake from the game until the new balance patch will balance the morrowind "balance".

    I would most likely have still pre-ordered it as these changes won't be the end of the world. Yes it will probably make things harder, but one of the regular complaints I hear from people is how easy everything is! Given time we will adjust. I still love the Elder Scrolls universe and I'm sure going back to Morrowind is going to be great fun, and Battlegrounds are a very welcome edition :)

    Yes. I'm fine with nerfs if they are all around. They just need to make sure they are even handed across all classes new and old rather than just some. They also hopefully have kept PVE in mind to match the sweeping nerfs.

    Basically; if it actually leads to balance, then fine. I am afraid it might not be though.

    Why is everyone acting so surprised? DPS stacking and broken meta have been openly discussed as concerns amongst players and devs for, what, like a year or longer?

    I'm glad the nerf bat is coming down, and hard. No more skipping mechanics or support roles in PVE. No more cheese infinite sustain in PVP.

    Win-win.

    Exept for the fact the content isn't changed to suit and we all are left with a game we basicly cant play.

    Good job.

    I didn't preorder and I'm glad I didn't. I can preorder right up to the last day and still receive all the bonuses. Why would I give ZOS any money before I even know anything about the update other than lore related things. I want to know all about the buffs and nerfs to my character progression well before they get a cent from me. I've seen the nerfs. Still waiting for the other half of the patch notes with the buffs so I can give them money.

    I didn't pre-order it. I am mostly interested in battlegrounds and would like to see more before I buy so I will wait until release. However, the upcoming nerfs will not influence me on morrowind unless it makes the game unplayable which I doubt it will.

    Exactly.

    Adapting to change is a key skill in an MMO, and this change is a significant one. It isn't the first time they have done this, and it won't be the last.

    They have not killed the game with changes like this, despite many predictions. The game is more popular today than it was back the last time they "killed the game". Gamers are nothing, if not passionate, about their drama. :smile:

    The good players will adapt to the changes and thrive. The excellent players will do more than thrive and people will call for additional nerfs.

    Besides, every change in the game is called a nerf. The term is used too much, and is often misused.
