Me and the wife are still having a blast!

Don't you know our forums terms of service?:

"The Elder Scrolls Online forums are only for complaining and whining, ensure you use emotive language, label words and provide no proof of anything you say.

Respond to any comments about your post that you do not like with scorn, abuse and derision."

So those guys are only following the ToS, well the one they think they read anyway.

You forgot the bit about polls being compulsory.

Wait. This is a cry about the criers? Sheesh.

"I've played MMO's for 10 years and never changed a thing I was doing blah."

Really? So that means paying customers should just shut their mouths, stuff their ears and cover their eyes? LOLs.

Leave them be and let things get sorted out in the arena of ideas.

It's a fun game, but based on your opinion I'd say you shouldn't care one way or the other what people do, say or complain about. Your going to have fun anyway. Gawds

You're exactly what I am talking about, Vizier. One who reads but does not comprehend. There is a difference between providing constructive feedback to improve the game and...just whining. But that just flew over your head, apparently.

I really like the game. Are there problems? Of course. Will there always be problems? Of course. But at the end of the day it is all stuff I can live with, or work around.

A couple of points; the grass in not greener on the other side. Problems in this game will plague every other MMO to some degree. They may not be as bad in some areas, but then they will have serious problems that Zenimax handled quickly.

At the moment I see Zenimax working hard and having a plan. If you don't agree with that plan, then I understand, go elsewhere for your MMO. But I have played MMOs that had no plan, and shot down every idea from players (cough LoTRO cough) and those MMOs sucked.

I initially had eso pre ordered for ps4, and had been psyched about it since it was announced. In the time between the pc release and the console postponement, I was following the forums and other reviews, and the predominant negativity made me hesitant. My sister's boyfriend told me how awful it was, but then admitted to not having played it, and based his opinion on a gamespot review. I can understand disliking a game for legitimate reasons. I couldnt stand ffxiv arr, even though I thought it was very well done. Both games have some pretty big shoes to fill, But it seems like there was/is a feeding frenzy of negativity around eso.

people love to complain. Studies have shown that alot of obese people over eat because of an increased pleasure response to eating occurs in their brain. Im pretty sure that similar studies would show that alot of mmo gamers complain because of an increased pleasure response while complaining.

Anyway, ive been playing for the last month, and this has turned out to be one of my favorite games played, and my favorite mmo. One of the things I like most is the combat. Id always avoid mobs in other games, but I go outta my way to be violent in eso. I think they did a fantastic job capturing/relaying a sense of kinetic empathy, like, hitting someone with an enormous burning sledgehammer feels very satisfying.

No where in the TOS does it state that you are allowed to have "Fun" We kindly ask that you cease and desist all acts of fun immediately and continue with the mandatory whining as per the TOS (Note: The TOS does provide free cheese and crackers).

Lot of boo hoo on the forums. Lot of waa waa waa. Is anyone besides me having fun?

I've played MMOs for a good 10 years. Seen all this many times before. Seen buffs and nerfs. Never once have I changed classes or specs. Good or bad, somehow, I still manage to survive encounters. To tank raids. To...have fun.

Providing constructive information on some disparity in-game is all well in good, but coming on here crying that ZOE loves mages and hates tanks is not useful.

Just sounds like a lot of people not having any fun. Might I suggest a game of Cribbage instead?

Oh, but then... the cards are two stiff to shuffle.

When you read the forums, it taints your perception of the game. Hundreds of thousands of people enjoy the game.

Hundreds don't enjoy it.

In the game you'll find those hundreds of thousands. On the forums you'll find those hundreds.

Just keep that in mind when you come here.

Having a lot of fun, and finding a great community along the way.

Yup, or I wouldn't be here.
