unmanageable monster

Eso was a great idea but with all the races,classes,skills it would take years to try and balance them where all is equal. While trying to add new content that interupts past balance. As a gamer for 25 years just my observation.

As long as you are subscribed for all that period, the master plan succeeds.

Sales > balance.

Hence why the p2w class warden in which a stamden is the strongest overall class for pvp got even more buffs.

Or when they bring in OP sets in dlcs to sell it only to nerf them 6 months later to bring in more OP sets.

There's no such thing as 100% balance, and never will be.

No but they could atleast try to achieve some balance.

It's so obvious they only care about $ , consumer satisfaction and long term health of the game is way down the list.

I used to try and keep up but takes too much time. Im a pretty decent dps but cant do vet dungs since bloodroot. A very small percentage are good enough for the new dungs, but most like me are done.

That's the thing about balance. They don't have to be equal, despite what the min/max metasheep believe. They just have to be within the same general ballpark.

I tried once and got stuck in a rock.

Well to be fair it would take a disciplined group that knows every move. But peeps like me dont have the social requirement
to achieve said results.

I say new content is also critical to consumer satisfaction and sales are important for long term health,

True but new content should not be so drastic that your build no longer works.

It would help if the new content was good or actually lasted more than 1 week.

Sometimes we get 2 dungeons which is 3 months worth of content that i and a lot of people complete in a day.

They spend more effort in reskinning mounts and selling them for 2x the cost of dlc's than they do actual content.

ESO problem is not that one or two classes are overpowered or overnerfed.. it’s problem is that from huge variety of item sets and skill morphs only 20% are used and others are complete garbage.

I noticed that!

I wish we could have official contests to think of ways to change unused morphs or sets.

It’ll be great.. but now they continue to remove diversity instead, they killed deceptive predator on warden decreasing it’s length, and buffed his counterpart adding 10% slotted damage.

I’ve got a feeling that person resonsible for morhps is lazy clueless jer... clerk who just adds random spontaneous changes in last 5 minutes before PTS start, though he should play, test and analyze 24/7 instead of introducing absurd updates.
