I know i would be playing something else if i felt like that.
Will never understand why people post crap like this.

I don't like what i'm playing i leave and move on.
Really a simple thing try it .

I was playing another mmo that didn't have much population. A bunch of people came to this game and started telling me how great it was and how it was so full of people that sometimes it is hard to find mobs to kill in dungeons.

So I migrated to this game and two weeks later all my guilds started growing empty and when you look at the levels of people who have left they are usually VR1-VR3. It is pretty obvious here the problem is.

I haven't rushed through the game and I have enjoyed it so far but apart for some pvp it feels like just another single player game which is not what I was looking for. I haven't decided if I will sub for another month. It all depends on where things stand in 2 weeks time or if I want to play an alt 1-50.

I am hoping they will make some changes and that many people will come back but I am growing worried that even if they do make the effort people have made up their minds about the game and will stubbornly refuse to return.

The game hasn't died as in ended. It's just that fewer people are logging in and as often. It could be due to seasonal reasons. ZOS doesn't care if people don't log in as often as during the first month after launch. What matters to them is that players keep paying their subscription. The real test to see if the game has "died" will be when ZOS introduces new content.

Great graphics may sell an MMO to a lot of people, but graphics alone wont keep them playing for long.

Not a other post about this *sight*

Well i don't know about you OP but after year of playing different mmo i know that under summertime the player base number is dropping big time even in game like WoW that have been around for years and it have do with thing call school holiday and vacation you get from work and if good summer with that i mean not so much rain. Here in Sweden our schools is close for 10 weeks and most people that work take between 4 to 6 weeks vacations so ofc number will drop for people tend to go away on there vacations and not stay home.

Also WS went online early this month and many people are playing that atm many do only play the 1st free 30 days then the move on to new mmo or go back to there old ones so i would not worry that much about this game is dead i think it will pick up the close we get fall again.

I dont think the game is dead. There's still alot of people playing, especially in the lower level zones.

But I am guessing that there are some people that have the same experience I have:

Before the game was launched with a monthly cost, I was like "meeeeeh is it really worth a monthly compared to GW2 WvW? How can I know? Well maybe if the guild is moving over". At roughly 30+ possible people that where going to play ESO in the guild, I decided to sure, I'll go for it. I'll take a chance on your monthly fee, maybe the game is so good it'll be worth it.

Then the game launched and many where dismayed by the bugs, glitches and crap that should have been resolved with the beta. Personally it wasnt as horrible as the open beta for me, but it wasnt good to see bugs within hours of playing as a noob. The later server downtimes annoyed something incredible, but most people endured the lower levels at least.

As we leveled up, the guild started to grew apart. Since there is no good way to group quest in this game or go help lower level characters, we just when further and further apart. A couple of weeks later we where all over the place and lots of people had left due to bugs/glitches/annoying little things.

When we tried to go into Cyrodiil as a group to sort of buff the morale of the guild, it was pretty much a disaster because we're playing on the so called "EU" server. The latency issues and skill lag just put everyone off (even ignoring the plethora of bugs).

Then after a while there came a point where we couldnt even gather a group in Cyrodiil, because there are too few peeps. And Cyrodiil isnt all that fun solo. Its better now in terms of lag than what it was on release, but its not good at all compared to much smoother games. You can gather a pug group sure, but we're really lacking the tools for it.

And now, months later... I'm mostly waiting for my subscription to run out. Because its not really any fun anymore. EU moving to the EU may be a redeeming factor but I honestly doubt it. I cannot warrant paying a monthly fee for not having fun with my friends. ESO is a beautiful game and I like soo many things about it but when weighing it against games that doesnt have a monthly fee, I question the amount of money I will be forced to put into it.

So really, I've come full circle on the subscription reasoning, lol. I was against it at first, I accepted it later, I thought it was worth it at a glance, then I started having doubts and now I fail to see the point. Its petty, I know.

It is easy to understand if you try. One word sums it up; investment.

It`s "dead" because of stupid questions and threads like this.

First of all, please define "Dead". Everywhere I go its tons of players, its even more players in the 1-50 zones than at launch, just check a random bank anywhere.

First of all, with the megaserver architecture you wont really notice a massive drop in players until the numbers are below what it would take to fill a single regular server in another MMO.

Because developers are listen to whiners.

Or maybe fanboy trolls characterize legitimate complaints as whining

Give me "WIN" button are NOT legitimate complains!

Its a sub based game so the bar is set pretty high! By now people have realized that 'play how you like' if for 1 to 49. If you want to have fun and do well after 50 its light armor and a staff in one hand (resto). What makes it even more limiting is that if you want to DPS forget Templar! So the game is basically one build with 3 different flavors.

To add insult to injury we have no central trading house which has produced zombie guilds filled with hundreds of players for the sole purpose of using guild store....

Stamina might have been intended to be a resource that can stand on its own two feet as a main source of damage or it may have never been intended to do so..no idea and that is another negative...

PvP is ok for a start but we need more variety and more maps...many more maps...
