Yes, and as I've stated numerous times, I have played alts. Through every faction at least once. I've played every class at least twice, although a number of them I deleted because I wasn't happy with the race/class combination. Some I've kept around for crafting purposes although they stalled out in leveling as I simply got more interested in other combinations.Ourorboros wrote: »Don't know about you, but I played through Skyrim with a bunch of different characters. Each of them had to play the same quests. Yes, there is a bunch of mods to play, but I'd be surprised if someone told me they never repeated any Skyrim content. I don't see how leveling alts in ESO is any different from that experience. Vets are not forced to do Caldwell Silver or Gold, there are other ways to level. In truth, the only reason to level past VR1 is access to gear with better stats, since there are currently no attribute increases after 50. You play alts in ESO for the same reason you started a new character in Skyrim....to try a new class, race, skills and so on.The best quest of the game (Main quest) is solo entirely.
And it's over before you hit level 50, let alone Veteran Ranks. Then it's simply going through Cadwell's Silver and Gold quests (which are only the side quests of the other 2 factions that you didn't originally play). So once you've done that, what is left? What is the point of running an alt since you've already done all the quests? They should be creating new low level expansions to give players a reason for creating/playing alts and they should be creating solo (as well as group and guild) content. But instead, they choose to totally ignore and alienate a large segment of their player base. In my humble opinion, those who need to group/guild are weak and incapable of dealing with things on their own.
