    I'm hoping for a lot of folks on prime-time EU to do the public dungeon in Windhelm this weekend.

    Sorry did that a couple of weeks ago

    i think people are miffed because we DID all think this was going to be ES but online, or at least bring some of the best elements of an ES game and make it multiplayer...but no, they didnt do that. they made a totally new game and left out a lot of good elements of ES games that make them so great.

    The TES players are miffed because of this. The people that understood what the game was actually supposed to be are miffed because those same TES players are now complaining that it's not what they thought and keep pushing for it to go in that direction.

    If the TES players would just realize that this is an MMO based in Tamriel and using TES lore, than things might get much better.

    This isn't, and never was, meant to be Skyrim 2, Skyrim Online, or Skyrim with friends.

    Really think they missed the mark there, especially in regard to consideration for casual cooperative players.

    Locked solo instances account for about 5 percent (probably a little high) of the total amount of questing. You are complaining about a small problem. There should be some that force you to solo. Challenges are a good thing imo.

    I'll post it again, and bold the appropriate part:

    ESO would be a much better MMO had the developers not locked so much content behind forced-solo instances.

    In other words, until a player gets past the forced-solo instances, a great deal of the game's content is inaccessible.
    You are complaining about a small problem.
    No. It is a major SNAFU, since the forced-solo content effectively forms a wall between it and much of the game's content.
    There should be some that force you to solo.
    No.

    There should not be. This is an MMO - not a single-player game.
