Here I sit...

Watching it rain. Again. It's been raining for days off and on, and frankly I think Mother nature needs some Xanax or something...lol. Not that I mind the rain, but If I can't mow the lawn, I may have to go buy a goat. I have given up most social media because it's too stressful, and in no way fun at all these days[snip]

Anyway, the point of this post is not to complain, but to say that I still, after 7 years, love this game. I am not a PvP'er, I'm a "do everything in order" mainly solo player...however, I recently discovered BG's, and it's a blast! I will be doing more of that soon I'm sure.

My favorite thing right now is Housing. I know that many people think it's boring, but If you took 5 minutes to go visit some of the amazing builds out there, you would no doubt be impressed. Have you have ever looked in a trader, and wondered who would want to buy 200 Daedric thrones? The answer is a housing junkie. Check them out.

I am just bored right now waiting to get in game, but I want to thank ZOS for marching on, through the difficulties running this thing must entail. I would also like to let them know that yes the travel to "outside" of home thing was a great idea. (I didn't get it initially.) Companions and endeavors, are great, but I am dying to know why Bastian dislikes Muthsera's Remorse....

Suggestions? Day/Night toggle in housing, and better lighting in normal outfit stations. (Yes I know I can go to my house and create the best outfit station ever...but not everyone does housing.)

Have a great day all, see you in Tamriel.

PS: A messenger accosted me in Solitude, and told me that someone needs my help in Whiterun, but there is no wayshrine...please tell me it's under construction, and my life will be complete...lol

I delve into every aspect of ESO myself.

I'm a dungeon delver at heart but I do it all... PvP cyro, BG, IC, PvE vet trials, dungeon's and arena, Solo, questing.
I think I'm addicted. I have decorated three 600/700 item limit houses and multiple smaller ones in different themes.

Recently though... I found the beauty of fishing. Got some serious beautiful screenshots along the way.

I mean come on...This game is beautiful.

I'll take your rain, please and thanks. No moisture here since mid-March....

[Re Bastian: it's the Firsthold Fruit and Cheese Plate that gets him, not the tea according to things I've read here.]

There is so much to do. I'm working on crafting at the moment. But I will do housing and scrying and fishing.

My experience is solo player games (Skyrim, Witcher, etc) but I admit I like the group stuff a lot. Good guild is everything from that respect.

PvP and BG's? I'll give them a shot eventually.

So much content. Grooving.

Yesterday it was 112f and stayed hot (102f) until well after midnight.

Now, I figured the official temp was "in the shade" so out in direct sunlight it should be somewhat hotter. Maybe, say, 120f or more.

Great bedbug killing heat. Perfect, actually.

So, my nice comfy recliners got baked in the summer sun. No bity bugs last night. But, we did have a blackout for 4 hours.

I like ESO delvs and dungeons because so far, no bedbugs in them.

Housing is your true endgame Once I discovered it I started collecting houses and furnishing them like maniac O_o it's... relaxing, amazing.
I haven't played PVP until last year. I don't play that much of PVP still but it's a blast when I do. Dying over and over to finally find that build that keeps me alive and kills others before they kill me. Defending castles, taking castles, zerging around when I feel like it. I never thought I would have so much fun with PVP O_o
Been playing ESO since 2018; game is annoying [snip] at times, the way they "fix" bugs and "introduce changes" makes me really sad way too often. But there is so much still to do. And so many things to enjoy. Music, landscapes, stories. I do hope they stop turning ESO into yet another korean-like grinder and stop degrading content (honestly, Greymoor and Blackwood fall so behind Summerset and Orsinium...). This game has still so much potential.

Day/night toggle would be awesome! Also, happy gaming everyone after all these years I too still absolutely love this game.

I really need to stop buying houses and start decorating them.

Drought and excessive rain can be equally devastating. If I am growing food for my family and there is a drought, I can add water to the garden. If it rains on that same garden every day for a month, it's toast. I'm not talking "showers" here. Erosion due to this rain has brought flooding, and property loss...glad to see there's an AP ready to show up and comment unnecessarily on people's posts. [snip]

Thanks to whoever let me finally have my monsoon this summer!

And @Jaclynn - every time I see the title:

"Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill
Who could blame me cry my fill.
Every tear could turn a mill -
Johnny has gone for a soldier."

Get a bag of diatomaceous earth, you can find it in the gardening section of places like Lowe's or Walmart. It's a powdered rock that dries out insects when it gets on them and when they clean themselves it cuts them up from the inside. We had bedbugs years ago in a small apartment and the landlord wouldn't do anything about it so we got a bag of that stuff, we got rid of them while the other tenants still had them. Because it'd a rock it's non-toxic, but you do have to make sure you don't breathe it in since it can cause problems (since again, powdered rock). It's generally pretty cheap and works on pretty much any insect or things like slugs that comes into contact with it.

Be aware it can be a problem for pets as well though!

@Jaclynn Daedric Thrones are the result of ZOS bug: once upon a time (long ago: July 2017) they were offered for 0g, so clever players packed theirs inventory mules bags with free stuff, so even now they are quite cheap

Totally agree, eso is mightily purty.
