That wasnt a nerf, that was a minor tweak. If they nerfed it , it would have been a negative 5. When ZOS swings the nerf bat, they arent interested in hitting it out of the park...They want to hit it out of the solar system.I get that people are upset with performance but to rate it so low is unfair.
The Elsweyr chapter is great, the new dungeons are fantastic.
I do feel Southern Elsweyr was a little lack luster and should of came with a trial or a new arena.
Where I feel things lose points would have to be the huge nerfs and the terrible performance we have all been suffering lately.
For that I will rate 8/10
Considering your criticism, id say for you to give it a 1, an Elsweyr dragon would have to come to your house in real life and burn it down.Edited by Anotherone773 on November 20, 2019 10:27PM1 -

Why on earth would you play a game that you have clearly rated so low?
That makes no sense.
I play this game because I enjoy the overall experience (When the server is working of course 😏)
You're entitled to your opinion, I'll never understand why people like you, however, feel the need to push people out of the door.
A lot of us were here when One Tamriel changed everything...basically a rehaul of the game. Some of us are hoping Zos will recognize the need to do so again.
You can love something and not be happy with it. Your spouse, kids, or even a friend, might be going down a bad path. Doesn't mean you love them less. And it's a disservice to the thing you love as well as yourself to ignore shortcomings and mistakes like they are nothing.
We don't leave because we still love this game. Wanting to see it improved isn't a bad thing. Being silent won't magically make things better.
Push enough people out the door, will there even BE a game to love?
Telling someone to leave has got to be the most useless, self destructive thing to tell someone.
Hope...hope is why some of us stay.
Not pushing anyone out of the door, I just don't understand why you would continue to play a game you think so little off.
Performance aside Zos have done an amazing job.
That's like saying your girlfriend is going through a bad time so you're going to rate her 3/10
No you wouldn't do that, you would rate her much higher, because you love her despite the fact you are just not enjoying her company right now.
Ah, that seems to be the disconnect. If I'm unhappy with something, I rate it appropriate to that moment. I rated ESO a 5 as that's how I feel about it right now. It may get better and I'd rate it higher at that time. You are taking an alternate (but still acceptable) approach of rating it based not only on how it is right now, but previous experiences with the game as well. The time you've put in previously is counting in your rating. Understand that others do not rate things the same way. If it's a dumpster fire right now, they will feel it necessary to rate it a 1 even if it might have been a 3 last week or a 9 3 months ago.
But the Question is...
How would you rate your 2019 in ESO?
Not how was your October and November experience.
Fair enough. I'm just not sure the girlfriend analogy is quite right. Perhaps someone would rate January as a 10, February as a 9 and a gradual decline from there. If there are enough 1's on that list, then you can realistically rate it a 1 overall. Maybe the recent nerf update was so colossally bad that a person would rate that a -20 and drag the whole average down. I also can't see how the game could be rated overall a 1 for 2019 but I also can't see how it could be a 10 either. At the end of the day, it's a subjective rating and a subjective rating system as there are so many variables. If someone honestly feels the game is worth a 1, that's what they will rate it. I don't have to agree or even understand where they are coming from as it's all subjective.
I can want to enjoy something that I rate a 1 and maybe I'm still playing that game in the hopes of it improving. I probably wouldn't be doing that forever, but holding out hope that the next update is an improvement is something many will cling on to.4 -

✭✭✭✭✭3Only rated so high because the stories are well written and the world is still as gorgeous as ever. Questing and exploring is 9/10.
However.....
Do I really need to mention the dumpster fire that is this games performance and constant fatigue from class/ability changes? What could I possibly say that hasn't already been said?
3/10...and that's being generous.

I'm guessing you didn't read my original comment then. Think so little of? I said questing and exploration was a 9/10.
Performance issues and the blue screen fiasco in Cyrodiil have significantly lowered my overall score, since I predominantly play PvP.
So, despite your blanket statement about how I think so little of the game, I actually don't. ESO has done a lot right. Unfortunately it's had a banner year of mishaps.
I stick around in the hope it'll get better.
You don't have to understand...you just have to accept it.5 -

Horrible analogy. You don’t pay for your GFs services. Now if you were to say, let’s say a lady of the night, then that would make more sense. And if the service was that bad, yes you would be upset.3 -

I would have given 10/10, had it not been for the one book I missed in Southern Elsweyr, that can no longer be accessed - after finishing the quest.
This has caused me no end of stress and disappointment. It has seriously impaired my enjoyment of the game.

lemonizzle✭✭✭✭4I gradually played a lot less, and finally stopped being active. Only bought Elsweyr, and completed the main quest which was fine; did not touch small dlcs'. Story and art/design section is trying, but performance-wise the game is a flaming garbage truck this year. All resources should be diverted to fix these daily issues, else all the work that went into improving the launch-reputation will be in vain.1 -

A great cure to fixing the majority of technical issues would be to actually hire a bigger team that are specialized in certain departments. Instead, they have very little people working on this game so much so, you have one guy working two departments.
Mario Bros #1 and Donkey Kong had a bigger development and technical team than this game2 -

Yes because what you put before that about a dragon burning down my house was really meaningful. 🤷
I Think you are mistaking me for someone else, this is the only comment I made about you.
My bad, it's an honest and easy mistake because of the way you defended what they put.
I learned how to interact socially with people and reading comprehension in school. Also i learned the meaning of "passive aggressive" and "condescending". I also learned to make sure of the target i was attacking and what was behind that target. I guess it was not a good school though like you went too. But i digress, my post was about your very generous critique and subsequent follow up post concerning your disapproval of our low performance scores and lack of comprehension of why we are still here and still play.
On a last note, i feel like we have learned so much from each other and grew as people today. Dont you?

You cant reply to anyone without directly insulting them can you? Also, while you may be arguing, i am having a conversation about (y)our communication problem.

The negatives you mentioned outside of the DLC have been ongoing issues ALL YEAR and account for the bulk of the content you mention when weighted.

✭✭✭✭13 or 4 out of 10
Not a great year by any means. The good bits are mostly due to the many great people playing the game. The bad bits are entirely due to poor performance and lack of professionalism on ZOS’s part.
I just meant to leave a mark, not a bloody monologue....
Great for
- Friendship and camaraderie of my guilds. Met some really great people
- Personal progression. Really enjoying trying to break some of the harder content
- Dragonhold. Despite being completely steamrollered by the Witches Festival, I like this a lot more than Elsweyr
- Witches Festival. I really loved the extended Witches Festival. I did arena content and organised trials, which I enjoyed and which I would not have done otherwise. It should always have been a 2 week thing.
- Symphony of Blades. A great final boss ruined by a truly terrible dungeon.
- Scalebreaker. Aside from the crap name, which instantly confuses it with Scalecaller (and again speaks of imagination vacuum at ZOS), this was a solid pair of DLC dungeons with fewer of the normal issues than usual.
- A year long story. A good idea averagely exacted. It should have started in Q4 last year instead of Murkmire and climaxed with Elsweyr. No one I know still cares about it. But the concept of a year long story worked.
- Grappling hooks. Could be quite interesting.
- V2 dragons. Still not perfect, but this is what they should have been in Elsweyr. That the V1 dragons were not speaks volumes.
Meh for
- Elsweyr. Uninspiring and tedious at best. Really felt like the very long, saggy middle part of a trilogy rather than an important part of a treasure hunt.
- Wrathstone. Frostvault is still buggy as hell. Depths of Malatar is full of incomprehensible mini boss mechanics. Rushed out and badly implemented.
- Sunspire. Badly designed, poorly conceived and no fun to do.
Bad for
- Service. PC EU has been a badly managed, poorly performing ghetto for the entire year.
- Service. PC EU is a disgrace.
- Service. You can’t say this enough times. All the creativity and content in the world won’t help if your servers are garbage
- Communication. Aside from ‘dragons’, I have no idea what ZOS’s intentions are. The impression is this is a game in managed decline. And that’s a bad look.
- Money grabbing. Massive increase in monetisation of content and progression. Not a great look either
- Low Quality. Too many content elements are being released in a beta or buggy state. V1 dragons a prime example. ZOS do not appear to give a rat’s arse about this.
- Low Imagination. Far too little genuinely imaginative elements. Far too much cookie cutter, just repeat what we did last year laziness
- Events. The early part of the year was too full of unnecessary events, the 5 week Anniversary event seemed to drag on forever. And the only really enjoyable one, Witches, only really worked because it had to be extended because PC EU once again could not cope. It’s a shame when the release of the final piece of your year long story is totally overshadowed 2 days later by yet another event.
- Indriks. They are horrid.
- Instakill and ‘no indication’ death threats. V1 dragons were great (ie terrible) for both. The new tendency to only very lightly colour indicate significant threats is a very bad idea.
- PvP. Just. Utter. Garbage
- Game explanation. Want to know how any aspect of the game works? Don’t bother looking in game or on ZOS’s website. They explain nothing.
- Service. You really can’t say this enough. One day it might get through.
- Caring. I don’t feel ZOS gives a ***. And that should worry them.
TL:DR a great game being ruined by atrocious service, averagely produced content and a crappy company attitude.20
