ESO just died?

Did ESO just die with these changes in PvP? Will it now be impossible to kill anything? I probably will permanent quit this game due to Zenimax weird patches and fixes that don't balance anything. It was a good and great game but now... I really don't know.

Whats your opinion? No flame please, serious answers only.

    PvP is going to be fine, in fact, the changes are going to make some extremely strong builds for PvPers (:

    OH NO!!! The sets that did the dps for you and required absolutely zero skill are being toned down?

    Sounds like it should have been done a long time ago.

    What is this skill you speak of? Mashing keys on a keyboard/controller?
    FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.
    FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.
    FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.
    FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.
    FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.
    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.

    Balance is a "Bad" thing.
    Is the glass half full or half empty?

    ???? I am confused this patch is nothing but good things for PVP ????
    They buffed all the resources on gear.

    Well other than the last minute shadow stone nerf, I needed that to punch through impen.

    The soultion to the Penetration nerfs is to actually put points in penetration Cps which weren't even being used.

    Some of us prefer the fight than gank to our egos content. If this patch has finally got rid of hitting someone once and killing them, that's great! We already have the tools for shield stacking, tanks and we'll just have to accept Templar's aren't meant to be killed. I think TTK remains the same except for the Proctards, they'll have to work for a kill now.

    ESO just died?

    Oh, isn't this exciting? I've never witnessed a game die before...
    Do you think it'lll die with a bang, or just quietly roll over? So many questions!

    Oh... will it smell bad? I don't want to stay if it'll smell bad.

    It already died? But... but... i'm still downloading! What am i downloading, then? I hope it's not a ghost. That would be very bad.

    With health recovery debuff applied now with Major/Minor defile, its included to kill tanky builds include Templar running troll king and stacking health recovery!

    Love the changes for HotR. Not sure what they put in Wrobel's water lately but the recent balance changes have been so much more reasonable to me and seem to take into account the community's suggestions (see oblivion damage enchant reduction). Balance between classes, sets, mundus, and traits are at an all time best in my opinion.

    ESO has plenty of soul gems... but if they run out then resurrect at the nearest wayshrine.
    The nerf to intelligent internet discussion still hasn't been resolved.

    The problem with above average intelligence is that you're treading a sea of idiots.

    ESO will continue to live until the launch of Elder Scrolls 6,
    then go out with a whisper

    Not likely.

    MMO players like MMOs due to the challenge of teamwork activity, not "go get me a quart of milk and two dead chickens for my ritual breakfast quest."

    Pvp is a very small tail on the back end of a huge dog, it's never going to be balanced because the pve mob make up the bulk of the income by virtue of sheer numbers, first and foremost all balance will tend... as a crude average... to favour them. Pvp was not and never will be the focus, accept this truth or you will never enjoy your time here
