Remember the Bad Old Days When the Game Launched?

I remember. I've loved the game from the start, but that doesn't mean there weren't things to criticize.
PvP was kind of rough. Light armor was clearly superior to heavy, and stamina builds were for the most part behind magicka ones. Werewolves sucked. Templars had just had their only real mana management skill (Restoring Spirit) nerfed at the end of beta, and didn't have the sustain to keep up with the other classes in DPS. Their ultimates were pretty underwhelming too. Nightblades' stealth was really buggy. Sorcerors were using Bolt Escape constantly. Impulse-spamming zergs infested Cyrodiil, and postern doors were constantly bugged. DKs had really great, synergistic rotations, and were constantly spamming Talons and Standards. Vampires were a real problem too, since Bat Swarm was just so powerful. And the perma-CC stunlock was a real frustration.
Anyone remember those days? Boy, am I glad that all these problems have been totally fixed and never have happened since

✭Do you remember the good old days where Silver bolts had 100% proc on vampires which kept their population low?
Then they got fixed and Vamps became instantly OP again and infested Cyrodiil.~Thallen~3 -

✭✭✭I have been V12 for some time and i did all quests. But sometimes i feel like starting a new toon (again in DC) because i loved the story and quests. Nostalgia for a game <6 months lol.٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
"I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."1 -

Drakoleon✭✭✭✭The bad days are not over After 6 months the game is even worst
I try to progress a new toon and i found more bugs and even new ones in every map i ve been through The worst part is that i cant progress my toon ! am stuck for week in Auridon cause the "Sever All Ties" MAIN quest is BUGED!
PVP its a joke! taking advantage against others because its happens to have the buged powerful skills its just BS (i have a templar and a DK) i know

This thread makes me sad.
Its a shame how hard ZOS fails to fix the most obvious flaws with pvp.
Their gonna lose all their pvp players when CU releases and to be true, I believe most things wont be fixed until then which will be about mid 2016.6 -
staxjax✭✭✭Good thing for ZOS that majority of the player base does not pvp?Edited by staxjax on September 12, 2014 8:09AM2

Francescolg✭✭✭✭In Cyrondil, at peak times, I crash every few minutes until I have to stop the game and make a pause. Bigger organized groups cause lags everywhere, sometimes you can't even use your skills, or swap or weapon and sometimes you get even disconnected with the error message: "you got disconnected from the server cause you sent too much messages"... Lags/crashes are a major issue and nothing has changed, after they settled the EU-Servers to Germany. I stay in the game cause of the lack of meaningful alternatives.1

smacx250✭✭✭✭✭Speaking as almost exclusively a PvE'r, things have gotten a lot better. Like it is now possible to actually "fight" a dungeon boss instead of repeatedly watching a swarm of bots kill it before it even fully spawns. Or having teleporting bots blinking around and plucking all the harvest nodes. And the forums were full of "bots are killing ESO" threads, all filled with the inevitable "zeni has no solution" and "can't save this game" comments. Quest bugs? Yeah, it seemed not a major quest would go by where I didn't have to un-log/wait/re-log or abandon the quest and start over. Some are still some bugged, but it is now seems to be a small minority of them that are seriously bugged. So yeah, I remember those days...
I won't comment on the PvP issues, other than balance. From the forum feedback it is obvious that everything has always been under/over powered, and that nearly every skill needs a buff/nerf - depending on who you ask.

NukaCola✭✭✭The game feels like the beta still in some ways. It kinda feels like the devs don't know where to go with this game. There must be only 2 guys in the dev meetings that disagree with each other.3

✭✭So many funny replies in this thread. Quite enjoyed skimming through it.
Honestly, the biggest change since launch is really just the lack of bots. I love that change, but I sure do hope some of the crap gets ironed out sooner than later.EP: Slania Isara : Harambe Was an Inside Job1 -

✭Yeah, but you forgot to mention the sarcastic, whiny posts that seemed to fill these boards way back then! You know, the ones always trying to come up with some new, clever way to moan about their pet-problems that the vast majority of players weren't even aware existed, while ignoring all the fixes and improvements that had already been made?

Two things, one, the game isn't six months old. And two, the quests bugs are less now than before. I have found one bugged quest in the past two months and when I abandoned it and took it again, it worked fine.
