No more. This has been a great event, and I’m glad we were given the extra week, but it’s time to end it. Let the market re-balance. Let us farm to replenish our mats. Let us rest from the FOMO grind for Jubilee Boxes and get back to the regular game.

It's funny (or sad; depends on how you look at it) that doing those dailies are the regular game for me. Work-wise and other life activities, I really can't put in a lot of hours into ESO. Practically, each time I'm on (few days a week or so), I'm only able to get to those Mage/Fighter/Undaunted and the few other dailies that offers 18k XP (at its base) towards the efforts to level up whatever skills of each toon that may need so. Haven't the time to get onto trials and other contents. Well, yeah.. the event is over, but, still another day over here in this neck of the wood. Life goes on..

My poor Dragonknight is going to be suffering from health issues due to amount of cake he has consumed over the past few weeks. Please, no more. The cake was great at first, but now I'm starting to hallucinate from all the sugar - I'm seeing dolmen daedric generals in my sleep...

The event has been great for getting the executioner achievement. To bad I got that solo a few years ago.

Come on, peeps... back me up!!!

Okay!

Dear ZoS,

The last three weeks have exhausted us all. Thank you for the anniversary event, but in the future, please don't extend it.

Instead, just give everyone free boxes in our mail.

Sincerely,
One Tired Bosmer

Does this help?

You all peeps that are seemingly pooped and exhausted from this event must have spent a lot of play hours. As for me (as I can't speak for everybody) I don't have such luxury. A couple hours here and there during the week and an hour extra or two on the weekend, you can only do so much. I'm probably only able to put in a small fraction of playtime, compared to you all hardcore gamers likely doing 50+ dailies a day. I'm lucky if I can get through 10 dailies per game play. I'm sure that is the reason I'm not so burnt out as many. Well, as in anything (food, alcohol, and such) moderation is the key. However, it's just human nature to want to go big and all out, and peeps just want all those boxes; as many as they can and forget everything else. Sleep... what's that? Ha ha

You know.. this thread is not really an actual call for an extension. It is merely just for amusement. I can't recall the actual term off the top of my head, but, it's when you play on something to make it humorous (or attempt to, at least.) I'm quite aware of the ungodly amount of playtime many peeps have put in this game during this event in the attempts to get as many boxes as possible in a day. Yeahhh.. I'm also aware of the many folks that are quite burnt out from doing so. Ha ha

starlizard70ub17_ESO

The event was great but please no more, I want do normal things on ESO, undaunted, PvPing, playing on the PTS to see how much of a grind the new skills will be, etc.

By the 2nd week, many of us, including myself, started looking like this;


Thanks for the event ESO, but..... I just can't take anymore

I can't speak for anyone else, but for me, I had to take full advantage of this time to rank up my skills.

You see, I hit CP about a week before the Anniversary event. My character went from level 50 to CP400+ with one attack to a nefarious wood elf worshiping Daedra.

The game chimed in some music, and my character was enveloped in light. The achievements kept popping up, and I'm now a Level 50 hero.

But my skills, and skyshards were totally lacking.

Perfect timing, this event! I could farm skyshards and take full advantage of the 100% exp gain to level the rest of my skills quickly.

And it worked. So yeah, I'm a little tired ranking up 20+ skills, skyshard hunting, and then having to end the day pounding out some metal to earn a box filled with more metal.


Worth it.

In all seriousness, @ZOS_GinaBruno, thank you for all you guys do. Despite some of the less-than-favorable feedbacks/comments may have directed toward you guys at ZOS land about serviceability and whatnots, hats off to you guys for tolerating and putting up with such negativity. Kudos to you all as well for contributing to the success and continuation to ESO these past years in making ESO quite the entertainment it has been. All in all, keep up the good work. (Oh.. can you nudge or elbow those PvP crew some in giving some love to improve PvP combat mechanic. It is surely not as smooth as PvE.. or is that intentional?)

Get away. She's (by all indications that are any of our business) happily married and a mommy. No one needs this. Carry on.

The extension was great. I'm still doing writs on all 8 every day for the leveling and the gold to buy the motifs I didn't get. I could go either way with another extension (which is obviously not gonna happen) but since I'm doing them anyway..why not?

you think i didn't realize it was an attempt at humour?

really?

not a very good one though.

Thank god this thing is finally over. Dont get me wrong, its a fun event, but it went on way too long. I did not experience any inability to log on during the event, including the first extension they already gave us. You really want a second one? No thanks.

Dear good ZOS folks.

We’ve recently had several different issues impacting the NA megaservers that, unfortunately, happened to all hit in a relatively short time span of a few days to a few weeks. There have been issues ranging from game errors related to authentication, logging/loading on, crashes and being kicked off the servers; whereas also, some have been related to hardware, while others have been related to power and large ISP outages in the region. We appreciate your extraordinary efforts to have resolved the issues that we cannot control on our end, nor remediated by our local providers; thus, there were numerous periods of time during which we were not able to enjoy the anniversary event in its entirety.

With that said, please extend the anniversary event by one more week on all megaservers and platforms. We, with the NA megaservers, would like to enjoy this extra time to make up for time lost, and to enjoy the event to it s fullest (as it should be intended) until the event, should it, concludes on Monday, April 30th at 10am EDT. We also appreciated you, ZOS, Bethesda and Zenimax for all you do, and your commendable efforts in extending the event in compensation for the EU servers folks. In all fairness and bravado, please extend same such courtesy to your loyal fans with the NA megaservers.

Thank you very much for all you do.. and Mara bless..

I'm on Xbox NA and my friends and myself have had a horrible experience with the game crashing for the last two weeks. There are four of us that play and our games would seem to crash anywhere from two to three times avery 30-45 minutes. It's really made it a pain in the ass.

Just last night, was on for about two hours or so, I crashed a total of 4 times. All while in Cyrodiil trying to help take keeps. It sucks because I would crash mid fight with my alliance, only to crash, and reboot. By the time I got in a few minutes later, we had already either won the fight or lost and moved on.

The friends that I play with, our small group are in two different states and we have the same issue when crashing. Game freezes and makes a loud sputtering sound, then kicks us to the main xbox menu. Sometimes two of us would crash at the same time.

Edit: Not Necessarily wanting the even to go on another week (although the cake would be nice) but I wanted to express my experience with all the crashing in game.

I hear you.. had some issues here and there myself. Keep crashing with the wayshrine travel again, similarly to the fiasco we had with CWC patch. However, since, the rotating loading icon just stop spinning, and the screen will just freeze; unlike back when CWC came out, the loading icon just spins on infinitely forcing us to close app and reload/relog back in. Well, since no more anniversary event extension, free crown crates will surely fix the boo boo.

Ha ha ha.. thank goodness, somebody gets it. All in humor, folks. No need to send out the black vans and chopper after me now. Although, those little sloth youngins are quite cute. Would be cool to have such as a non-combat pet, but would have to keep up with our Speedy Gonzalez toons. Just seeing a sloth blazing by behind a toon would just be so hilarious.
