Quality of Life...Will we ever ?

First of I would like to state that I really enjoy ESOTU , despite its shortcomings, I find the experience very immersive and rewarding. I've been playing on PC since release and am now playing on PS4 ( started fresh and decided not to transfer my toons over ) .
With that being said , I have become very frustrated at the lack of QOL features and to be honest am doubting whether any of them will ever be released.
I am curious as to what everyones take is on a timeframe, if at all, some of these will be implemented.....

My list....
1) manageable inventory..seperate tab for crafting mats with unlimited space

2) Non guild associated trading...not necessarily an AH, but at least a more centralized area and the ability to sell your items if un-guilded ( slightly higher fee perphaps )

3) Better search features on traders...I mean seriously?? Why do i have to put my search filters everytime..give me saved preset filters PLZ

4) PC controller support..i known I would probably go back to PC if this happened, but why is this taking so long...they have been working on it since last summer ( link is in one of my previous posts if anyone is curios )

My personal outlook is..
1) probably never :(
2) probably never :(
3) probably never :(
4) probably by next summer

Doesnt look very positive :(

After looking at this, seems like to summarize I'm looking for some PC addon features to be available on PS4, or PS4 controller support on PC...Am I dreaming???

    We absolutely need better search capabilities for guild traders, but adding a global AH is one of the worst things they could do to the game. I'm talking lighting patch and removing ground oils bad.

    Curious as to why you say this? From my personal experience i feel a global AH keeps costs much lower, undercutting anyone? I think its sellers with high/max level toons that dont want an AH, but the buyers with low/leveling toons ( especially unguilded ) that are in favor.

    Global AH's are very easily and very often exploited. AH bots, buying all of a certain mat/gear and basically creating your own price, etc.

    The guild trader system keeps the economy in check, keeps it competitive, is much much much harder to exploit, and provides an awesome gold sink (trader blind auctions for spots).

    With the 500 person guild roster cap, there's no reason why someone couldn't join at least a couple trading guilds to sell gear. And for buying gear it's not hard to browse a few shops. On top of this, I personally like people spread out throughout the world, instead of all stacking on the Global AH NPC in the capital city.

    Nope, because they can't sell this stuff on the crown store.

    Fair enough, i respect your opinion but disagree. I just have never personally been victimized by this " buy all up and relist higher" .
    Are Console AH Bot's possible ?

    For the PC side:

    1) I have heard them talk about that, but I'd have to look it up.
    2) Zone chat is your friend. You don't even have to "Sell" stuff. Just keep an eye out for people wanting to buy what you have.
    3) AwesomeGuildStore add-on. Your life will never be the same.
    4) I know there is no official support but I do have friends who play with a controller (using Xpadder, I think. I can ask) and they wouldn't play the game any other way.

    1)If there was unlimited space for crafting materials, there would be less incentive to purchase bag upgrades. The game needs gold sinks.

    2)JOIN A GUILD. It really is that simple. No one says you have to converse or play with them.

    3)A search feature would be nice, but I'm also a PC player and have addons that help me with getting around guild stores.

    4)PC controller support is coming, and I am waiting patiently for it too.

    "Quality of life" term has absolutely NO business on a MMO forum lol..
    Anything useful that players are wanting added into the game all fall under the category of "Yer ruinin my 'mersion!" Sallington

    No text chat?

    I'll laugh when they add pc controller support before they allow console players to remap their buttons and run around like idiots yelling on our mics every time we need to find a group
