Can you guess anything that will happen in ESO in 2019?

SupremeRissole

New dlcs with bug fixes a year late but include their own new bugs.
New meta BiS gear will be locked behind that dlc paywall.
Increase in ping
Decrease in FPS
Major focus on crown store.
Nerfs to arena weapons
Another broken af set
Another half built trial with a bug to exploit the skin, with permabans for those who do exploit.
Pretty much a repeat of this year.
Prove me wrong ZOS please

Tommy_The_Gun

I hope I am wrong, but based on what were the changes for the past 2 years, my predictions are, in general:

- More random or unnecessary Nerfs.
- Further, gradual performance decrease, more memory leak bugs and more server issues with lag spikes and disconnects.
- More annoying monetization (making basic gameplay hostage of either Pay2win DLC / Chapter or ESO+ ).

• Another 30 points increase of the assignable champion point pool
• More skillpoints
• Yet more motifs

JD2013

There will be outrage on the forums.

Reistr_the_Unbroken

Hopefully storm atro crates will finally return, but also get ready for the huge kitty litter box dlc that I guess is coming.

WuffyCerulei

Something in either Elsweyr or Skyrim. And very hopefully Spellcrafting.

SantieClaws

Khajiit will rule over elf!

Elsweyr will open the ports to travellers once more in celebration.

Then finally Tamriel will have the hero it neither deserves nor wants but the one who turns up to work and is willing to kill rats in a basement.

It remains a mystery how so many rats still survive on an island full of Khajiit no?

Some players will be vexed by revelations concerning Khajiit morphology, especially when it becomes apparent that all seventeen morphs are already present in the game - 12 from character creation and 5 as NPC's, pets and/or mounts

Knootewoot

The next expansion will be Solstheim and Dagon Fell. Players rejoice as it is the best expansion ever. The physical collectors edition has a statuette of the island of Solstheim real size. You can place it near Greenland and live there.

Why isn't that one of the Fighters Guild daily quests? It would be hilarious if they added it.

It's 2019 and the lag in pvp is fixed. The combat is far more interesting than it used to be cause now you spend more time comboing your offensive skills instead of rebuffing again and again. Also proc sets are reworked to spice up the gameplay instead of define it. AvA has a meaning now cause it rewards players dynamicaly and I couldn't be happier to see IC alive again.
The new trial is awesome, far better than those lazy half-life mini trials that we used to have. Can you believe it's been 2 weeks since release and people are still trying to complete it!? The new class is cool too, can't wait to get my new character slot and try it but for now I am busy leveling up my new weapon skill line!
Love the cp changes as well. There are so many fun new perks and the combos you can make are countless! Also absolutely boss move from zos to remove lootcrates from crown store! Now I can manage where I spend my money! But the best part is the rework on the vanilla zones. So many new dailies and achievements to do in end game and the fact that mobs now are harder to kill makes me want to group up with others instead of soloing everything! A great year for eso indeed! Now time to wake up and realize that I have canceled my subscription and I don't even know If I want to renew it

This was so awesome ! Everything i want the game to be.

Experienced players will quit the game and new players will fund ZoS by their crown store. Endless and vicious circle.

paulychan

Q1- zos will change something and people will lose their s**t.
Q2 - another change, pvpers burn the forums
Q3 - another change, this time even the rp guilds quit
Q4 - another big name game fails to create a playable game. Everyone comes back
Last week of dec... the nerf sorcs again

Can you tell me what next week's winning lottery numbers are?

That said, the new zone will have a soundtrack I'm going to love to bits, and it and Murkmire will finally be released to Amazon mp3. I'll buy them, play them to death and finally get moving on my story idea. At that point, I'll be so giddy I won't care about inevitable nerfs or being unable to ever hit the CP cap.

*sends subliminal vibes* Release Murkmire soundtrack!

ParaNostram

Necromancy or bust, I say. If it ain't necromancy then I am not very happy. This girl wants to raise the dead to fight for her!

pod88kk

Probably more items in the Crown Store.

ezio45

racial nerf early 2019

more sorc nerfs all thru 2019

more unexpected nerfs noone asked for

introduction of a new system that will be unusable or laughable hard at launch

Iskiab

All racial stat boosts removed, racial bonus’ changed to suit the lore of the races.

New bard class released

Nerf to all passive types of healing, along with the mitigation cap of resists increased to 65 percent.

Light armour mitigation improved

MaxwellC

No removal of CP, no new class specific skills, lag persists in PvP/end-game PvE content, new DLC, and new crownshop items.

ForMalacath

Furniture slots increased for housing (I hope)

Hoolielulu

When crown crates are outlawed ZOS will sell advertising in-game: Sprint Battlegrounds, Pepsi Dolmen, Coke Tavern, AT&T Group Dungeon and New Balance Keep.

Capitalism will never be illegal.

In 2019:

• Max stat % bonuses will be removed from racial passives. (Ostensibly for "balance" but actually to pay for power creep)

Thanks for the cookie! But I'd rather just have my old racials back.

My guess is players will be upset with "balance" changes Zos makes. This will likely start with the balance pass on racial passives but it will likely not end there.

I guess we have a winner!
