What kind of content do you most enjoy as an average player?

    Vet base dungeons
    Veteran dungeons are the reason I keep playing ESO. Normal content is way too easy, even some veteran dungeons are, but luckily there is also hardmodes. Nothing in this game beats the feeling when you finally get that challenging hm boss down. Maybe I'm bit of a masochist but I just love veteran dungeons - even with PUG groups. They definitely bring more challenge to the game :D

    There's nothing wrong with normal content either. It's very relaxing and there's so much to do but without veterans I'm sure I wouldn't be hooked to this game. Easier content just doesn't feel very rewarding to me. I just hope upcoming veterans have more personalities and skins as trifecta rewards.

    edit // And I consider myself as average player. I'm still pretty new to the game, don't always follow meta and I still suck at playing as dd - but because of veteran dungeons I want to learn so I can try different role.

    I know its a forum poll and doesn't mean anything really... but I am seriously surprised at how much the numbers don't line up with ZOS's focuses. I would have thought that dungeons would have accounted for much more and PVP way less than what is showing. No surprise to see housing at the top though. I guess all those folks doing dungeons are there for the rewards, but aren't really enjoying it as much as they enjoy other activities.

    Well he did preface it with average player, so Vet DLC dungeons pretty much falls outside of the category, as maybe does scrying, not sure how average of an activity that is, and generally only something the average player would do for a specific purpose, like getting the current Mythic. As for the other missing choices, I am guessing their is a limit on how many choices you can put down, but dungeons in general could have been a single choice.

    Questing is my favorite, but I honestly do a little bit of everything in this game. It's one of the few MMORPG's I've played that I've done that with. I, genuinely, enjoy doing all the content in ESO.

    Questing.

    Everything else is stuff I do when I've run out of story quests. Of those, I fish, scry, chase solo PvE achievements, do endeavors (the easy ones), dailies (until I get the max achievement for a quest giver), and writs. I have empty houses I'll eventually furnish.

    But number one is questing.

    One great thing about ESO is that there's tons to do between story content drops (the dungeon DLCs are useless for me).

    If the poll included questing/exploration/overland content the results probably wouldn't surprise anyone.

    Since PVP technically includes hunting skyshards in Cyrodiil, I'd probably have to vote for it ahead of dungeons myself. I did one random normal dungeon every day of the Undaunted event, just for the tickets. So I've spent way more time "in PVP" than in dungeons, even though I'm really not interested in either right now.

    Questing! I have 18 characters to quest with on my main account (altoholic here). I may occasionally do normal dungeons, fish, and plae an item or 2 in a house, but most of my enjoyment is from questing, reading lore books, and exploring the world.

    I’m here for two things: questing and reading every piece of lore available no matter how negligible.

    The RPG aspects appeal more to me than the MMO.

    Housing
    I love housing! But it plays into my love of collecting motifs, furnishing patterns, and rare and interesting things which all feed into housing and my love of playing fasionscrolls online. If my characters are gonna save the world, they've got to look good doing it XD

    But in all seriousness, collecting furnishings, fashions, and all kinds of items and motif really feeds into my desire to build interesting and in-depth characters that I enjoy playing. I've never played a MMO which provided me with such an intricate ability to completely craft my characters down to the finest detail of how they organize their room. Customization in ESO is top notch and its my favorite aspect of the game, and I'm very motivated by it.
    Legends never die
    They're written down in eternity
    But you'll never see the price it costs
    The scars collected all their lives
    When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
    Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
    Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
    Legends never die

    How can farming, I assume crafting mats as there is no gardening in ESO, be on that list and not questing?

    Anyways, questing and completing maps are my go to activities on whatever alt I feel like playing that day.

    Its because questing is missing from the poll.

    Exploration first, Questing, sometimes farming, and housing...
    then occasional PVP Alliance war when I'm in the mood.

    I detest dungeons as they are now, since I am not much for getting together with a group and racing through things. Sure wish there was more of a solo mode so I could enjoy them! I've soloed some, but with my Fibromyalgia pains, I cannot fight for long periods at a time.

    I checked housing because I think it’s beautifully done in this game, but my real answer is exploring and questing. Why aren’t they in the poll??

    My second favorite thing is leveling and playing alts.
