Do you feel bamboozled, hoodwinked, flimflamed, and hornswoggled?

I feel like what is about to be implemtentedshould have already been in the game as an MMO. Such as housing(obviously not in yet. yet...), better and more diverse costimization of skills and character(pets, mounts, spellcrafting etc.) Even with spellcrafting i feel like they will, in a way, make it limited. For some reason ESO is limited in many areas where more creativity and actual effective mechanics and content could have been used. Many MMOs already have everything that ZOS is planning to do with the game. Many MMOs have a Mini games and other activites to make it feel like a live environment and not a i come on to slash and smash some enemies, grind in one
spot all day and zerg in pvp. Does any one else feel like they have paided to beta test ESO up untill 1.6 hits? Does any one else feel hoodwinked? I feel like making this a poll. SO BE IT!

    Except in this case, a mile wide might be saying too much about the game

    I don't feel swindled in the slightest. I knew what I was getting into and I appreciate this game for what it is. I may have said this in another post, but the amount of unhappiness is just boggling. Zenimax is basically saying "HEY LOOK! AWESOME STUFF IN THE FUTURE!" And everybody goes "WAAAAAAH!"

    Also on a side note, Has any one youtubed upcomming mmo's? Even the top mmo's of 2014. ESO i feel like, didn't try being innovative or really outstanding mmo wise. Sure you got your skyrim quest loving people happy. Crap ton of quest for you to do and repeate but stuff that really make the game come to life is just.. nonexsistant. Were my dragons at? being a ww you feel like your wearin shackles. You can't even dye all your armor. Forget changing your hair style. Why even have Inns if it really a place for NPCs to idle in a endless loops of stairing at the wall and the few lucky npcs that have another npc to stair at. fishing is hogwosh. Other games with BAMs omg i love me a good BAM or a biiiiiiig boss. Im talking a real giant and not the im slightly taller than yao ming giant.

    I feel betrayed but I is very forgiving. I am optimistic that the new changes have some positives. So it is not all bad. The negatives are worth criticizing for the betterment of the game. It is complicated, there are many pros and cons to the decision.

    I am happy that I will save money with the new change but the problem is "is the game worth playing" Being F2P/B2P means nothing if the game isn't worth playing.

    This decision wasn't made yesterday. They should have communicated this plan to us as soon as the decision was made. I have no issue with them changing their model of payment - it is their right and their choice. But I do feel like they mislead their customers in the process. That is more meaningful to me then any choice of payment model.

    Taking their word on the future of the game will now be harder. Hopefully this new monetization model allows them to hire better Communication and Public Relations Management.

    Zos has made a fantastic game that I love to play. And I'll pay using whatever model you like. Just please be honest and upfront about upcomming changes in a timely manner.

    I have not been happy since launch, but I AM happy about this change. (So last option)

    This is the hardest game to group in that I have ever played. The game population at end-game is just SPARSE.

    I know many kind, intelligent and mature adults that buy games but think it's ridiculous to pay a subscription fee to play a game. These are engineers and pharma reps and stone masons. These are not kiddos with momma's credit card.

    I am happy to see a model that inspires them to join.

    And people who generally liked the game, but got tired of paying for a beta game. Well, they don't have to do any more. They can come back for free.

    More population = more groups = maybe I can do more trials. GREAT.

    I think they must have already cut back on their staff. 6 months ago they would have been in the forums closing threads left and right.


    either that or they just don't give a *** and figure were stupid enough to just keep giving them all our money.

    In DC, I have spent hours posting in zone looking for such a guild only to find various guilds with 30 people online who group for trials Friday Night from 8:30-9:00pm. Big Whoop.

    Hey new guild, I know it's a tuesday, but there are 34 of you online, want to group for a trial? "No. go away I'm watching pern and eating cheetos".

    I have had lots of fun the last year playing an unfinished product. I hope I find the finished game as much fun.

    They lied, like a rug, repeatedly. However I still enjoy the game and, while I do, I shall continue to subscribe. It's like a replay of LotRO however; eventually the store WILL take over and I shall move on. That's life. (Still don't like the fact that they're lying weasels, mind.)

    We should all take away the song from the Lego Movie:

    "Everything is awesome"..... Hi everyone, in case you didn't know, my name is Awesome.

    And you forgot:
    Molly mopped
    Brow beaten
    Had the wool pulled over my eyes
    Befuddled
    Duped
    Pigeon Holed

    Or I feel like a:
    Patsy
    Easy Mark
    Chump
    Sap
    Schmuck
    Stooge

    Or the all time favorite: BOOB
    Follow me if I advance, Kill me if I retreat, Avenge me if I die.

    When this immediate evil power has been defeated, we shall not yet have won the long battle with the elemental barbarities. Another evil, it may be an invisible adversary, will attempt, again, and yet again, to destroy our frail civilization. Is it true, I wonder, that the only way to escape a war is to be in it?

    If I die, you are forgiven, If I live, I will kill you.

    Betrayal isn't my main emotion. My main concern is not with with the past, but with the future, which suddenly looks very, very uncertain now that the first steps towards "pay to win" have been taken.
    Please stop making requests for game features. ZOS have enough bad ideas as it is!
