Granted, but players who rely on cheese will also smell like cheese, and radiate squiggle lines to indicate that they smell like old mammoth cheese.

I wish for nodes to be changed to where if you can't take the entire contents of the node, that you could not take any of it. Eliminate the cherry pickers!

Granted. Players are now forced to auto loot nodes. No more leftovers. But you can no longer get nirncrux from nodes in Craglorn; it's a crown store exclusive material now!

I wish we could see Castle Volkihar from the shores of Western Skyrim. We don't have to actually be able to go there (and it probably woulnd't be lore friendly anyways), just want to be able to see it there, looming in the distance.

Granted. You now have an illusion skill line, an illusion magic ultimate and 5 skills. They all have awesome visuals, but they do nothing, they're illusion spells.

I wish ESO to return to GeForce Now -platform.

Granted, but you are required to have a new premium subscription for it which cost thrice as much as the standard one.


I wish Leyawiin along with the Niben River looked more lore accurate, and actually made sense and wasn't modelled after Oblivion's completely illogical version. Stuff like looking so it would be possible for ships to travel past.

Granted. In the Alliance War area this manifests in the bridges across the Niben becoming so long that campers have an even easier time to take out anyone trying to cross them. When the bridges are destroyed, due to their size, the server starts lagging and kicking anyone currently in Cyrodiil.
In Blackwood this manifests also by making the bridge leading to Leyawiin longer. Understandably everything had to be squished a little, so the player homes and two wayshrines were removed to make space. The one inside Leyawiin and the one right east of the city. Now you need to cross that bridge every time you want to go to Leyawiin.

I wish ZOS would communicate more and better with the playerbase.

Bosmer get their stealth back, but they all start looking like the Adoring Fan.
Spoilered for disturbing content:

NOT PLAYING

I just wanted to thank Ratzkifal for actually accomplishing this, since the Adoring Fan hairstyle is now available in the crown store.

Just waiting for that stealth to come back any moment now.

Any.........moment.

And you guys thought you were just playing a game, huh? Nope, YOU ARE NOW THE DEVS.

edit to add: "By Azura!"

Saxhleel

Ok, guess the I wish cycle ended so I will start it once more.

I wish that Bretons won't look like Imperials. Like right now they look the same but with different ears. Imagine if they were more angular, tall, and looked like an actual mix of Mer and Men.

...But they don't look the same, so granted? Apparently it's not what you want so guess that's the monkey's paw!

I wish for normal looking echatere, welwa and wamasu mounts.

Granted, but your character has to remove their armor and boots and wear bed clothes. If you don't have the inventory space to hold your armor, you can't get in the bed.

I wish that House Telvanni were the Dunmer synonymous with slavery and not House Dres.

Granted. House Dres has been kicked off the slave market and no longer owns slaves. But now whenever you go to Morrowind, the ONLY conversations you hear from the NPCs are all about how the Telvanni keep slaves.

I wish we had an emote where our toons could hug our friends' toons and maybe even NPCs.

Partner-emotes are now a thing, however they cause your character to slide awkwardly into position and stand still for a second or two to synchronise so that the animations line up right, which makes them feel rather disruptive. You also have no option to refuse a partner-emote, so now in addition to mudballing, people can physically prevent you from leaving an area if they keep giving you hugs or highfives.

I wish for the daily login rewards to not suck for at least 4 months a year.

Granted. But for 'balance', the amount of gold that mobs drop overland is reduced to 1 gold each, to make us feel the impact of feeling grateful for the free gifts just for logging in like we would do anyways.

I wish we could travel by Silt Strider, with animation and everything. It could be beautiful...

Granted, you can now place 100 houseguests. But now the only houseguests available are Pacrooti clones that all tell you to buy crown crates.

I wish we had the ability to pet our pets and mounts.

Would be even better if they all said their traditional lines out of unison with each other, so that all you get is an unintelligible chaos of "--and all you need is a crate!" and "Well met, and good fortune to you." and "Shiny gems, my compliments."

Granted, but they cry out in pain every time you pet them and they have a small chance to permanently die as your player character is the strongest thing ever.

I wish for Summerset to be an alien and unique land like Morrowind, but instead of mushrooms, lizard-bugs, and ash it's more like Purple magic trees or something, bird/feathered creatures, and flowers with bright corals on shores. Maybe even floating islands, but unless it is propelled by something it would break every lore aspect ever. Maybe the Altmer claim that is prove of their Aedric heritage?

Summerset is now a unique and alien land and the houses are made of glass-like crystals that reflect the lights in cities like prisms but also conveniently refract and reflect the light in such a way that despite being made from transparent materials you still cannot see into the interiors and it is all blindingly beautiful!
However the Altmer are also 100% Kirkbride old-lore accurate, so they are almost robot-like in everything they do, their names are simply serial numbers they recite so fast it fools you into thinking of them as "names" and they feel absolutely no emotions in a human sense. None of the NPCs are relatable at all and you are constantly forced to conform to their ideals as anything else would not be allowed in their lands which would make your visit there an impossibility. But hey, at least you get to fly to space on one of the Sunbirds, log into their magic internet and eternally fight against the Numidium that is, has been and will be attacking Alinor eternally in the past, present and future.
Tl;dr: it has become so alien that despite being cool, it stopped being comprehensible and fun.

I wish that ZOS would keep subscribers in mind whenever they are adding extra incentives to buying their chapter during a special offer period "giving back to the community". (Talking about how Deadlands are gonna be "free", but subscribers essentially get less extra than nonsubs, in case it's not clear.)

Granted but if you lose your subscription you lose whatever you got for free with the subscription.

I wish ESO had a quests system like in TES3 where you had to figure out what the NPC tells you and solve the quests with no Waypoints or Map pins.

I wish Water got an overhaul for underwater swimming and exploration.

Underwater swimming and exploration are now a thing. There are vast underwater labyrinths to explore filled with enemies and cool loot. However Argonian passives were not touched and thus did not receive underwater breathing. Also looting and picking locks underwater doesn't halt your breath bar like in the singleplayer games, so you have to hurry up or drown, which would put you back at the start of the underwater area as you cannot respawn underwater.

I wish the game environment would change along with the seasons.

Granted, but you have to pay a weekly fee to use it equal or greater to the average gold sink from the old guild trader bid. Oh, and the Global Auction House spams your inbox with mail for Pacrooti's Daily Deals and Pacrooti's Weekly Raffle.

I wish for Spears and One Hand & Spell as new skill lines.

Granted, but the Spears you get is Brittany as a new Companion and to have One Hand & Spell your character has to have only one hand 🤚

Granted, but the map it shows is always a different zone than the one you’re currently in.

Granted, horses legs now look like proper horse legs. Sadly their necks and head has become worse, and their tails is so badly textured and shaped they look like fleshy tails and the manes are just painted on. Because ZoS has no idea how horses look and don't bother to check.

I wish the Short Mussed Wave hairstyle became available to players.

Granted, but all other hairstyles are removed.

I hope to see Mannimarco as a main antagonist again in a new Quest.
