With all the new titles coming out here soon I always wonder what keeps people coming back. For me it would probably be the build creating aspects. I always love making and planing builds. With the dark souls 1 remaster coming out in may I will probably drop my sub for a while but I know I will be back eventually.

So with that said, what makes YOU come back to eso?

    Bethesda screwing up Fallout 4 to the point even trying to mod the game is impossible as everything is about their paid mod program now.

    I can agree being at 780 I can’t even say I’m doing it for future proofing anymore cause I’m 2 patches ahead (assuming 30 per patch)

    Gotta agree I never even finished 4 but I played the hell out of 3 and new Vegas. Kinda a bummer cause I preordered with the season pass and even got the strategy guide.

    I enjoy the terrible RNG and hours of farming for a couple pieces of gold because I never get anything that is worth anything. Oh and did I mention the terrible RNG? Like hours of fishing and only getting 1 perfect roe from 400 fish? So much fun.

    Unusual trading system. Not the best one out there, but a good one. Beautiful world worth exploring. That's mostly all. I have some other activities, but they change often. And I like the sense of humor of the guy who writes some of the most hilarious quests I experienced in MMOs and RPGs (the last one is debatable)

    Been playing for over 2 years and there is just so much I still haven't seen/done yet. I don't take any of it seriously so I still have a grand time playing. One class gets a nerf, I main another for a while, really helps break up the monotony and keeps the game from getting stale.

    Couldn't fathom playing one single class for any real length of time, sounds so boring and would have bailed long ago had I gone that route.

    I read on the forums about how bad this game is and I have to log in to see. Of course once in, I wonder what game some of the people are talking about. Then I keep playing.

    I still have lots to do. I have barely done any group content, would like to cross that off my I'm too freaked out to do this list. I'd like to do vMA at some point. I want to do the fishing on one character. I want to know every single motif in the game AND have all recipes and furniture plans known on one character. I want to redecorate my house and move things from my main house to other houses I don't even own yet. I want to farm a bunch of stuff to sell and not get bored while doing it. I want to get my mDK to legate in PvP, then decide if I want to keep playing on her or find some other character to use as my main PvP character. Once that part is done, then I want to ensure she was a proper build to be a awesome at it. I want to have millions and millions of gold, just to say I did it. I want to have most achievements on my one main completed.

    What new titles?

    ^^ This

    I don't have a clue as to what new titles are coming, nor do I care (except for ES6 - that is the ONLY one which will drag me away from Tamriel and...well...back into Tamriel :D )

    For me. it's my love for the Elder Scrolls world - the lore, the beauty of it's landscapes and the freedom to explore. Plus I've some very good friends to play with and I run a trade guild, so no escaping for me! :D

    i enjoy playing it... when i get bored i do something else, then come back. i can see this pattern continuing as long as the servers are up.

    currently splitting time between this and a heavily modded fallout 4. if there is ever a fallout online that will join the mix as well.

    I can play it whenever I like without feeling like Im missing out on something or having to pay for time I’m not using. There is so much content, I don’t feel guilty for taking extended breaks. One annoying thing with this though is having to find new (or rejoining) trading guilds if I want to farm for gold because I feel bad wasting a slot.
