Dead, really? I see people everywhere I go and my guilds usually have 75-100+ on at any one time. And you know it is harder to tell how many people are on given the megaserver tech, right? It isn't a static server like WOW. Sure WOW has more people, always has, always will (don't ask me why). No other MMORPG can compare but many hold their own, including ESO.

I guess I am lucky. My trials guilds are extremely active. My PVP guild is extremely active. My trade guild is almost excessively active.

Umm, OK.
I disagree, my friend disagrees too. We're both still playing and having tons of fun, especially in Cyrodiil, playing against large numbers of enemies. Not NPCs
mind you, other players.
So much for "dead, nobody plays".
And comparing a game's population after 5 years against another's after 5 months is....asinine.
I grant you, ESO could probably do better. It could do a whole lot worse too.

Well at least you got 1 thing right : rude people. And not just in game but on the forums too...

Dead. Nobody plays.

Good thing I started a side guild, way back in the beginning, to get the free guild bank space LOL hundreds of days since any of them logged in... w00t I got 500 free bank slots, thanks!!!!!!!

Your reasoning is a bit funny.

Just because your guildies are no longer logging on doesn`t mean that the server is empty.

You clearly state that you started a guild for the free bank space , which means that your capabilities for being a good guild leader are most probably very mellow .
And in return you failed at keeping any of them interested . I`m sure any successful guild leaders out there will back me up when i say that being a guild leader is quite a big responsibility. You need to show your followers that you`re involved and that you care otherwise they will leave to join other guilds or simply stop playing the game because they relied on you to keep them entertained.

Now that being said, i don`t agree that the game is dead, major cities are still crawling with people, every public delves i enter , i come across other people. I also always see people working on the same quests that i`m doing.

Everytime i walk by the entrance of a dungeon i see people waiting , either they`re waiting for their other group members or they`re looking for more people to join their group.

The game isn`t dead just because your guild is dead lol.

Draxuul

Agree. I'm sorry but coming onto a games forum and whining how it's not like another game is not productive . if you can't provide a constructive and realistic comment on how the game can be improved take your whining somewhere where people care, especially if your one of the many trolls who don't have an active sub and play the game.

Lol, this whole post just made me laugh. Plenty of people playing try going out into the world rather than just checking your mails and whether people in your guild are on.

When one guild dies people just move to another guild like rats from a ship. Try joining a better guild where people actually want to stay in the guild.

Loved the amateur dramatics of the syntax in the post as well. Keep it up OP I need more laughs today!

What did I just read? Was that an attempt of trolling? ...anyone?


I think I might need to see a Psychologist after reading that...

I won't drone on. It's heart breaking. There's no point in comparing this game to ANY other game... it's still a fail. Five months. Dead. Nobody plays.

@Gokmak‌ , I completely understand your perception, and it can be very depressing.

I am a member of 4 guilds currently.

The 1st guild is dead, with nearly 350 of the 400 members gone for more than 1 month. The GM and the other two officers have been gone for 3 months.
I am the last remaining officer, and a responsible person, so I am also in the middle of the exceedingly difficult process of gathering up as many of the remaining folks in this guild as possible, so I can bring them over to my main guild (see below). This is both a depressing and challenging process, but it is, thankfully, almost complete.

The 2nd guild is a straight trading guild. Lots of active members, virtually no chat and no player-to-player assistance (This is understandable, it is strictly for trading)

The 3rd guild is the "sister guild" of my main guild. We do joint Cyrodiil and dungeon runs together. These can be Very fun.

The 4th, and final, guild is the most important.
My main guild is loaded with decent, helpful folks who are always willing to lend a hand. It is seriously excellent being a part of this group. Think of the "old-school awesome" guilds of days gone by, but without all the "kiddie chat". My main guild only has 340+ members ... but over 1/2 of them are on literally every day.

If you are willing to give it another shot, my main guild, Tamriel Traders Reserve (TTR) would love to have you. I am the lead officer at TTR (2nd in command, so to speak), and I will gladly extend an invite to you if you whisper me in-game.

Looking forward to changing your mind ,

You know, assuming the OP isn't trying to troll or something along those lines, I think what they meant by the 5 months/5 years thing was... they feel that after 5 months, ESO is already losing people and they are noticing it where as in WoW it felt like it was constantly growing over 5 years.

Of course, I could be totally wrong, but given what he mentioned in his post, I like to think that was what he was getting at.

Sorry but in terms of values this is the second game after wow about subscriptions.
1 week ago UK charts eso was on top-buy.
Lot of ppl in Cyrodiil ,and when i started i was alone , now i'm playing with 6 realmates. Only if you have official numbers you can be sure what are you talking about. I can't understand of ppl that takes WoW as an example, if a lot of ppl play it , it doesn't mean that is the best game like if a lot ppl eat McDonald's it doesn't mean that is the best food.

"WOW grew more in 5 years than ESO did in 5 months"

DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

What a stupid thing to say, you do realise what you wrote in the title?
