    I think you are playing the wrong game. Classic ESO was a train wreck.
    I also recommend another option to the poll. "No. GTFO"

    TESO will remain in the end a *** game for classes more privileged than others and where everything is at the advantage of mage has damage of disproportionate ease, in short a top game to disgust the players of a category, too bad we know how to type Zenimax for this game, Probably the most confusing game to play, but kikoo magic won't be able to understand it, in short, classic or not, Zenimax will remain unable to do anything balanced and not even listen to the players, except, when it comes to their wallet...


    I've heard that Zenimax is about to make a new MMO or MMORPG, and one thing is for sure, I won't set foot on a Zenimax MMORPG any more, at least not while they're on that voice!

    I think what I would like WAY more is the ability to activate DLC storylines & quests in the main menu and/or collections menu.

    That way I can choose to start in Coldharbor and not get barraged with DLC characters like "Do you now how long I have been looking for you?"

    And yet, you will be logging in tonight and playing and you will pay your subscription when it is due because as much as you rant and rave and hate the game supposedly, you can not move on to one of the twenty two or so other mmorpgs available to play these days that all have forums full of people making the same exact kind of statements about their games too.

    YEES GIVE ME MY 1.6
    Symmetrical balance where x class = y class = z class kills games when it comes to mmo's.

    Asymmetrical balance is what I like. It's what I liked about eso's early design.

    I remember when each class excelled in certain things. That was 1.6 and earlier builds.

    My problem with eso early on is game performance, such as quest widgets not working. I also didn't care for veteran ranks, since they were just grindy levels.

    It's hard to see through the nostalgia. I do miss those wacky early days when we watched Deltia and was grinding for bloodthorn on my DK for the sustain.

    Eh, the only thing that’s gone downhill for this game is the monetization. Don’t get me wrong, I really miss pre-1Tam when levels made sense, but I’d rather they finish what 1Tam started by removing levels entirely and developing a new difficulty/scaling system.

    i dont love the balance changes at all...and i really hope we will see the last big changes with the upcoming chapter but going back? NO we need to move forward - in most aspects eso has continuously improved and we need to keep doing that...just in a reasonable way.

    Nah, that version was dreadful. The only thing I wouldn't mind getting back to is subscription model without all this Crown Store rubbish.

    WTH is up with the poll options? Just say yes, no, or other. No need for the snarky attempts at guilt tripping people who disagree with you.

    Also, no, I don't believe the game was better pre One-Tamriel. Many zones were ghost towns and it was more difficult to play with friends. I do prefer the subscription model w/out crown store to the current model, but now that ZOS has had a taste of that sweet crown store money we will never ever go back.

    You can't start (or shouldn't) base a poll on unsubstantiated opinion. You offered up the opinion that the game is going down hill as if that were fact. It renders the poll useless.

    ESO Classic would have its own issues, there hasn't been a version of ESO that's ever been perfect.

    I would like some of the old style stuff (mostly pre-CP) but do like some of the later changes.

    The game is only going UPHILL and will get better ( when one does not know).

    Come back with this "Classic" bulls*it in 10 years or go play the game that is really going Downhill and brought out a "better" classic version last year and please stay there.
