The game as it's meant to be, is absolutely glorious. And just the possibility of making awesome crafting/housing, demanding trials, chill questing, and hardcore PVP content - is pretty unparalleled if you ask me.
But it's wrestling with huge issues regarding performance, and outright glitches and bugs that have remained the same year after year. It's making places like Cyrodiil basically unplayable, and if they fix it with intended upcoming changes, it won't be nearly the same anymore.
I hope the performance - and so forth - gets better, this is like the "to be or not to be" of ESO. I know many who have been playing since start, who have been saying like "I'll give it a last chance with this performance improvement plan, if that doesn't do it - I am out. I can't take this anymore". My "IRL best friend" never even started playing this game, because he knows of all these problems. Quite a few people do some research before they start something big like starting to play ESO, if it seems like a waste of time because of issues like these, they'll never even start. This is of course sad, but still true.

Lore wise they did pick a good time as not much is known of the second era as well or numerous as the 3rd era is known. Issue with that they have lore masters that allow the devs to violate established lore of the game that contradict the later games that already spoke of a specific time of the 2nd era.
Bugs, Connection, graphical problems, balance issues, race issues, and so forth that have been reported multiple times kick the game down from a great game to a game with issues with no real solution or actual effort to address, and fix, mentioning the problem is different from addressing the issue. They said they tries to address the issue with Cyrodill and there solution was more unpopular than ever before, made the issues that where there get into PVE areas, has made the community more angry and upset then before. SO instead of fixing one problem they create 3 more problems trying to fix the original problem in Cyrodill as an example.
Races and the factions they belong too was done away with the moment they announced one Tamriel release and the Imperial release just to make quick cash destroying factional pride and the game that was actually well balanced faction wise. Each faction had a race that tanked, did magic, and, DPS, all gone for quick cash grab that again made more problems and issues for balance that didn't exist before. Yes there where some but not like it is today, and not by so many either that players generally cant play right for various reasons.
Racial Lore and bad choices at no point does this make sense Nord never liked the Elf Races yet somehow they are allies yet in ore they never where hey helped one another that was it. They didn't make the Alliance that is in the game. For example, same goes for Kajit and Bosmer they didn't like each at all eitherthey fought each other according to some of the lore books found in the other games.
These are just a few that players have brought many many many many times in the past that i can mention here, sad when someone tells you hey wanna know the true lore ask the players not the lore master. As most likely that conversation has been done and talked about for many years now and debated many times so the players know it better than anyone else.

Performance is a problem, a big one that bleeds across the game but is nowhere more noticeable than Cyrodiil. Beyond that, I don't believe any of your lore arguments are particularly strong here. Even in the game the alliances are ones of convenience which is heavily noted in dialogue and story; they are uneasy alliances of necessity, not kinship nor because the races have respect for each other, they are wrought with mistrust and prejudice. Initially, you are correct, there were archetypal roles per class which were solidified by racial choice, but that also goes against established TES concepts, allowing for the breakout that any race or class can fulfil any role is much more aligned with how TES games play and work, and is a paradigm I'm happy they have worked toward keeping--despite the flaws and a few imbalances. You make many sweeping statements regards lore in particular which you should backup with examples and sources in my opinion rather than just vague mention. I mean, TES lore lives and breathes unreliable narrators; there are books and snippets throughout the entire franchise that are contradictory--real world history is much the same, and in many ways that is what makes TES lore so interesting, it isn't perfect. I've yet to see anyone formulate the argument you make and provide actual concrete example of anything explicitly lore breaking or that doesn't have wiggle room for interpretation.

was using theme as examples by the way don't get me wrong lore is fluid n game and even in arguments many things that where considered are now not for various reasons don't get me wrong, but if you want examples and me take up more than i did ok but it is your eyes not mine all you have to do is go Imperial Knowledge UESP not final just another good source elder scrolls wiki and read up on it. are the alliances not exact no but some of theme just don't make sense like Nords and Dunmer when the two hate each other with a passion. Is it a convenience yes but one that wouldn't stand any pressure of war. See for the Kajit and Bosmer, I can see the Bretons and Redgaurds due the established lore available but not the Orcs Bretons and Redgaurds though.
Has there been no real good argument of Lore vs the game yes there has Dragons in Elswyre never happened on any of the official books in game books or even brought up ion any way what so ever on an level of lore till ESO decided to completely break lore. Even the lore that is there on Dragons state that at that time period all fo the dragons where dead in fact the last dragon to be killed was even a controversy, had two names and did two different things in the same time. By the End of the First Era most dragons where extinct little any in the second era but just a few and none of theme ever in Elswyre till ESO put theme there. So there has been good points lore just cause i didnt go out of my way to satisfy you with a thousand pages of proof doesn't mean it didn't happen or isn't true is there room to wiggle yeah don't get me wrong nothing is exact in the series.
Even the prior lore master stated it was a very controversial subject when elswyre was added as he even stated that there was evidence against the idea then for it at the time, things have since changed and is generally accepted but isn't very popularly accepted with many of the those that the lore a lot better. But yah there is arguments both ways but just as much against it also even the whole 3 banners war is controversial in the lor community as there is absolutely no mention of it in games or on any offical lore books at all will work a list for you that came before the game on lore so i can waste even more pages for you.
