Future Chapters, New Classes and main story concepts

Intro
@ZOS
@other forum users this is my opinion. No opinion is wrong. No opinion is right. Perspective and interests define that (but them again.... internet).

I won't be buying Morrowind.
Imperial City had more PvP. It was very fun the first days with tel var farming and fighting. It also had two beautiful dungeons. There was also a big variety of gear sets (jewellery, armors, weapons) and some of them were rly useful.
Orsinium had maelstrom arena and I had to get it. Most builds need the top weapons. In addition there were nice group activities on the open world.
Thieves guild hit on nostalgia. It also brough a new Trial and new activities. Nice story too.
Dark Brotherhood. I was expecting it because it looked cool (ESO was my first TES game). I believed that there would be a cool complex story but instead I was met by two religious cults, one of which were inhumane and ruthless without anything Good, just, meaningful about them. No trials, no dungeons. Just murder and instanced murder. I didn't care for it.
Black Marsh. If it wasn't an instant regret, it was very close to it. Why the hell did I buy this DLC? Anyway, cleared the dungeons. No need for their gear. Never going there again.
I did enjoyed all the Quests of the game, except Dark Brotherhood. Just evil.

I won't be buying Morrowind. Battlegrounds seem to be in a very bad state. There is nothing else that I NEED from the chapter.
DLCs and Chapters must have something that people NEED in order to sell to all players.
I'll say one thing about Morrowind which I think was GREAT. You added a new class and you locked it in Morrowind.

You need to do that again. And again. Keep the players bussy. So here my suggestion about:


NEW CLASSES

Prior to returning to ESO last month because of my inrl friends starting here (I left ESO 1 year ago because PvP requires no skill, just number crunching and the will to NOT PLAY AS YOU LIKE) I played Skyrim. Because I played Skyrim I understood the love people have for content which is related to previous TES stories, cults and companies. I read in one of the posts these days about vampires and Dawnguard being used in ESO.


NEW CLASS, NEW CHAPTER OR DLC

The story. You join the Dawnguard. You go up against vampires and the companions (werewolves weren't they?) Chapter? DLC? Dungeons? Map? Main Story Quests? New gear? Use whatever you want, the concept I suggest is the Dawnguard vs the supernatural.

What people will WANT AND HAVE TO BUY THE CHAPTER FOR
A new class. And I want to introduce a new concept here to you ZOS

A MOSTLY stamina Warrior Class

---

Nightblade is too roqueish for me, Templar is too Paladinish, Sorc is a mage and doesn't rly use muscle. Dragonknight is cool, but has 0 stamina utilities on his Class skills.

First skill Tree
Ranger themed: Bow passives and maybe a evastion/attack active skill and One-Handed Weapon Only damaging skills and passives. (UNIQUE FEATURE)

Second skill line:
Brute themed: Two-Handed passives and defensive abilities + One-Handed/Shield passives and defensive abilities.

Third skill line
Warlord themed: Dual Wield weapon passives and CC/utility abilities. No damaging skills.

This class will have NO ULTIMATE SKILLS. (UNIQUE FEATURE)

It is obvious that this class will focus on Stamina and Stamina weapons skills, passives, resources EVERYTHING. Just even further.

If possible I'd like to introduce to the game Classes that truly and mostly rely on either stamina or magika. Let's start with Stamina. It might lead to a good path which will achieve balancing.

Now as a Dawnguard you are send from the Order to fight vampires and werewolves. What if at the end you had an option to turn against the Dawnguard and become a vampire or a werewolf? Plot Twist!!!!!!

The next Chapter/DLC can be about necros and what they are related to. I've only played ESO and Skyrim so I won't offer a scenario. People like necros. I hate them, but I like it when they are in the game.


This is firstly what I want to see from ZOS, this is what I want to buy. There are personal agendas in there I won't lie, but this is something that I would pay money for. Morrowing just didn't happen to do it for me.

This is a very rough idea of how I think the chapters should go down. They might seem extreme but I cannot come up with solid concepts since I am not being paid by ZOS. I am being paid by another employer to goof around and spend time at the ESO forum, instead of doing my actual job from what it seems.


I also would like to apologize for being arrogant to ask you to sell us this concept. I haven't studied anything in relation to creating video games, yet here I am pushing my agenda with little regard to what the creators of the game ,who spend years to learn how to create games, might actually have in their heart and want to share with us through ESO.

If you can make ESO a better game because of these suggestions it would be great. Use it and sell more subscriptions and copies of the game.
The secret is to LOCK SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE WILL WANT inside a CHAPTER/DLC.
Keep it up

Personally, I loved Dark Brotherhood. Yes, they are evil, but its a necessary evil. The world can't always be what you want it to be. Somebody has to be there to rid the world of those people who appear to be good and innocent, but do in fact run a league of villainy that has to be stopped.

Now we have had a new class, we need another playable race. I know, we have nine already, but its always occured to me that there are gaps in all of that.

My choice? Dremora.

Yes, they are a race of Oblivion, but Oblivion, like everything else in Tamriel, has facets. Not all Daedra are absolutely evil.

In Bangkorai, you meet a Dremora woman who works for Hermaeus Mora, and she is there to ensure that Nature takes it course.

The world around us cannot always be a good and nice place. Who says its our place to be the Hero? Looking at the story, we are hailed as the saviour of whatever zone we do, but in some cases, that isn't always a heroic thing.

In some cases we have destroyed a "villain" who had a genuine case for overthrowing the order of things as they are. Not everyone was working for Molag Bal.

Hell, can we definitively say that Molag Bal himself is evil?

It occurs to me that us beating him in Coldharbour was merely a test. He is going to need the vestige in an upcoming fight that will blow the current storyline apart. In the end, we will fight FOR him, to stop something far, far worse.

So, my preference?

Give us another RACE, not a Class.

Personally, Imp City was he best DLC as it has longevity. Orsinium re kindled my love for the game, i did everything in that zone.

DB and TG i still haven't got into, just didn't click.for me despite rolling a thief specifically.

Not started Vvardenfell, mainly as the marketing images all looked a bit avatar for me. I like European medical style and ideally snow / mountains. I got it tho for Battlegrounds as i didn't want to miss out. But i concur, its draw wasn't great as an actual DLC.

But then I'm new to MMO & ESO franchise.

I'd love to see a stamina based class. And I wish that the game had one when I started ESO.

But I don't like the idea of no class ults.



Though one thing I really want to see is an Elsweyr chapter that gives people the choice to make different types of khajiit.

A khajiit's appearance and physiology changes depending on what lunar phase they are born in. Some are more human looking while some are more cat looking. Giving people the option to choose which one they want to play as would be amazing

Then they could also do the same thing for argonians since their appearance changes depending on the hist sap they drink as hatchlings.

new classes:
Necromancer-probably next class to be released if they make another one.
Dwemer artificer?Slim chance of a dwemer themed class but I wouldn't be shocked.

New skill lines:
one hand and rune-Allready been datamined.
Spears or Polearms? hopefully
javelins?probably not even though some npc's use them.would probably go into spear skill line anyways.
