Please don't take this as an insult, as this is clearly not one, but a solid statement that has yet to be proven incorrect.
Personally i like the mmo side its why i bought the game, i expected Elder Scrolls online....
What i didn't expect was...meh in two months i'll walk away much wiser, never again touch a Zenimax product no matter the title..
- bugs
- broken gameplay
- dungeons being finished by other players
- Quests being finished by other players
- gold farmers and bots ruining the game
- Chest rewards not being segregated
- no bag space
- no bank space
- hardly any loot

Of course, the issue could be that you (and most other people making this complaint) aren't actually explaining any specifics about what you're missing.

my Thoughts =
Agreed ^^^
This is whats ruining it for me other than those i love the game, mainly for me tho its the bag, bank and I'm gonna say it cause i think it needs one
AUCTION HOUSE LMAO Stores are not working, proven by all the posts and nothing sells, Hell half the time i don't know what something is selling for.
Sorry had to say it.
another note this game should of had 1 bag 2 banks, 1 account 1 character.
1.) Lol. I guess I'll never be seeing you in an MMO again - that's good news.
2.) ok? what broken gameplay. Game works perfectly fine for me on all fronts. and my ava team. and all my guilds. Get your ass handed to you? you find some of the veteran dungeons too difficult and get upset?
3.) yeah you shouldn't see other players in an MMO. *public dungeons aren't instances did you see players in instances? oh you wanted to solo them?*
4.) what?
5.) Lol..... see number one! gold farmers and spammers flock to a NEW MMO? NEWS AT 11
6.) yeah they are addressing it. new MMO and all that. HERP DERP
7.) this is stupid. stop picking up every.single.thing use your brain and figure out stale bread and maggots aren't necessary. Or help your friends level there professions and send them mats. INVENTORY IS SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU CONSIDER WHAT YOU PICK UP. I'll bet your the idiot that picked up EVERYTHING in skyrim and got a mod to get infinite inventory space.
8.) see 7
9.) you complain about 7 then say this. You are a true idiot. Seriously. I am surprised you can type. The fact that you can spell is a miracle of science.
10.) With folks like you in they are usually pretty bad, it pans out over time though.
11.) Again. new game. with all the reports of spam and gold sellers along with everything else I am sure they are burdened. I know you expect miracles but it doesn't happen.
12.) 100% agree. I think everyone does. but that has NOTHING to do with the actual game
13.) oh boohoo they are fixing problems in a brand new MMO with a HUGE scope and scale with brand new megaserver tech that will most likely be the standard in the future.
you sound like the type of person who is impossible to please. I think the correct term is overly cynical. Nobody likes a cynical person. Not even cynical people.
There's a difference between offering different stuff and not offering basics at all. Like the basic MMO group experience that is treated like *** in ESO. questing? Thanks to phasing a pain in the arse. Dungeons? There is no reason to do them more than once. I for one have turned down a group who wanted to do a dungeon I already did. Why? because there is basically no loot (3 dungeons, no loot for me = no loot in my terms) and there is no xp.NaciremaDiputs wrote: »ESO is another generic, theme park mmo.

You and your friend are right.
Every new MMO is more than likely to be a step backwards or sideways at best. The player community won't allow them to be much of anything else. Every single new MMO that releases has a flood of people on the forums complaining because it doesn't have all of their favorite features from all of the MMOs they already got bored playing. Today's gamer, by and large, has lost the ability to adapt and over-come in favor of scripted content that is predictable and safe.

Oh and doing stuff differently ...like letting people level the way they want. But no, that got nerfed like hell. So no no to pvp leveling, only questing or, if you know where to go, grinding.
So yeah ...MMOs have a problem but it is basically the dev team this is simply not capable to provide both, the widely accepted standards and new exciting stuff.

I understand the limitations, but I admit to feeling some disappointment. I still enjoy the game, but not as much as I had hoped to.
Single-player mechanics generally don't work in MMOs.
And yet they attempted to make a single player mmo.
Like you said, it didn't work. Bit of a disaster really. Not a good mmo and not a good single player game.
