Orsinium and why we play this game

I got on the PTS last night with my crafter with the intent to check out the new crafting stations. I got diverted, big time.
I happened to run across an Orc chef and the result was more fun and laughs than I've had in ages in ESO. I don't know who's responsible for the concept and dialogue but they deserve a big raise (or least lunch). It is by far the best series of quests in Tamriel. The conversation with the Orc is hysterical, the final quest reward is basically the Holy Grail for a particular profession, and it forced me to explore a lot more than I intended. Like I said it was just tons of fun and that's why I log in. Thanks for reminding me ZOS.
People are going to find out the same thing I did last night. This DLC is all about enjoying yourself out there in a big bad world. It's going to be mobbed just like the starter areas during April last year. From what I can see you folks did a great job with this DLC. Yeah, I know we got people complaining about the master weapons and such in the arena area but what else is new. They would have complained no matter what.
By the way, could I get some signed copies of that literary masterpiece "Old Orc Sayings - Shields" to give out to some of my friends? It should be required reading for all sword & boarders. I spent a good fifteen minutes reading it because I had to stop and laugh so often.

✭✭✭✭✭It's good to be back in Orsinium after last seeing it a decade and a half ago. The content as well as the changes to the base mechanics show ZOS is learning from past efforts and listening to thoughtful feedback from the player base. I found some bugs yesterday that made the experience a little less fun but if those things get fixed a little more polish is applied, this will be the best new edition to the game yet.
I hope this is a trend that continues (the learning curve, creativity, etc). How amazing might Dark Brotherhood/Thieves Guild, Murkmire, etc be if they get the same treatment?

It is highly unusual to for me to get sidetracked in PvE because it's mostly just rehashed versions of the same material elsewhere. But not in Orsinium. By the end of the night I had come to the conclusion that there's a more than 20 hours worth of stuff to do and it's going to be thoroughly enjoyable experience. And after the incredibly boring grind of IC we're all in need of something like this.
