Would you like if veteran zones were actually new zones and not recycled ones from other factions?

    No. I enjoy being able to do all the other quests with my Main.
    (even if some additional sabotage quests would be fun)

    New Vet Zones will bring new quests to us, fine with me.

    I think the VR Zones are fun. I like experiencing the different storylines from the other alliances. I am not sure what the problem people have with the VR Zones are to be honest.

    I complete agree with this. The storyline is rather long and complete if you actually take the time to do it within your own faction. Beyond that, the Veteran zones are a storyline reason to learn more about what's going on, a way to gain perspective, and play the 'what could have happened' game. Its cool, and I don't understand the problem really. Its challenging content, end game content, meant to be after you 'beat the game' more or less from the main quest story point of view. What's the big problem, seriously?

    I think it would be nice to have the option of exploring new zones, to progress through the veteran ranks, whilst maintaining the existing system, for those that want it.

    Given that so much of Tamriel is still to be opened up to players, this may be in the pipeline.

    Yes. I'm quite happy to see the other zones - I just want quests that are continuing from my accomplishments.

    Rather, these ones seem like I didn't do anything - didn't defeat Molag Bal, get the leaders to talk, anything.

    So...they stories should have been changed slightly to accommodate for the heroic actions of our characters.

    Pretty much this. People don't quite grasp it seems that on top of what you said, its actually more like 'bonus' content. Instead of rolling an alt back at level 1 just to see all the other quests and content they wrote for the other 2 alliances, you were given a way to use your main to do it, and they added additional stuff on top so it wasn't just completely rewardless and only for quests/story/lore.

    More "in line" end game content will come with time as they always do with mmo's. Release day always is light on the end game content. I'm damn thankful they came up with a smart way to make the other alliances 'normal story content' work out as semi-end game like content for me while the game balances and stabalizes, and more proper in-timeline story and content gets released. Molag Bal ain't done and lets not forget all the OTHER daedric princes and nefarious peeps that sooner or later will be around.

    The only thing I wish is if perhaps they had written some of the questing with more perspective shift around the alliance you are. I understand though that it would require the entire quest system and quest lines for each alliance would have to be written with options for the other 2 alliances as well, which would be really time consuming and could have delayed release or caused so many more variables that could go wrong.

    I think its great to have access to the other faction zones.
    What i don't like is to much questing, or when a game is trying to take my hand.

    So i have skipped all side quests and just moved on with cadwells almanac, bosses , dolmens and public dungeons.

    Main stories are awesome and i like the background with Meridia after injuring Molag Bal.

    In the future there will be more zones like Craglorn, so basically Adventure Zones go in the direction of seperate zones anyway.

    Same counts for PvP, the announced PvP dungeon could be huge and everyone who knows DAOC dungeons like Darkness Falls or Shadow lab will have a blast to see something similar in TESO.

    The variety of zones is great but i understand that some players struggle leveling alts through all zones again. But thats the case in many MMOs ...
    Didn't like that in WoW either but still had a ton of alts running through all the crap again and again ...

    At least i am not overloaded with stupid daily routines like WoW or other games, in TESO i can do what i want. The only requirement is cadwells almanac and after that i am free in Tamriel.

    Thats why i love that game.

    Absolutely here. I am playing this game primarily for the quests and to "consume" content and lore. I want a feel for what this time period is like in Tamrielic history.

    I am also an alt-aholic, and I enjoy playing a wide array of character types. Right now VR offers me absolutely nothing in playing it. While rolling up a new alt to experience the different factions offers me a chance to play a new type of character.

    If VR content was unique and exclusive to VR, then yes... I would absolutely continue through it. I actually kind of like the added difficulty of it. However, its not worth playing since my alts have all done these quests numerous times.

    The benefit of seeing other alliance while experiencing other classes far outweighs the small thrill of it being more difficult but having to play it with the class you have played through already.

    VR feels like some Game++ console option, which I have never understood trying to implement in games. If I want to experience the game again... I want an all new character, not the same one ..over.. and... over.. I have played through Mass Effect multiple times and never with the same class/gender/personality combo twice.

    I would like to be able to play through all the other faction's leveling content plus have new and unique Veteran leveling zones (1-10) that are not tied to Adventure Zone group content.

    This would:

    - Eliminate boredom for those who have already completed the zones on other characters while allowing those with only one character to quest in all the zones.

    - Provide alternative areas for questing.

    - Eliminate some of the tedious grind of Veteran levels as you would have more content (more quests) to level up with.

    New Veteran Zones could take place on planes of Oblivion so they would not take up valuable Tamriel real estate.

    Yes. I maintain loyalty to starter faction on my characters, and helping enemies is despisable. Dark Anchors etc non-withstanding, as I already stopped the plot and slowed Molly down.

    No, I like that I can see all factions on one character. I would not object to them developing other zones for other people to level up in. I would object to taking away a part of the game I find fun though.
