You didn't get it right? It's about lore not what you can/need to do.

How is being able to play any race in any alliance "lore breaking"? So you're saying that there are absolutely NO Argonians in AD areas, or no Nords living in DC, etc? That'd be like saying there were no Japanese or Germans living and fighting for the U.S. in WWII.

Agreed nothing lore breaking about race diversity across Tamriel.What was lore breaking and indeed TES breaking was faction allegiance not being a choice you made at lv10-15.

I have no recollection of who I am but I drop from the sky in the ocean near these guys. I am certainly with them for ever. ROFLMAO Story.

Ground Oils could kill a zerg.

Wearing Aether Hats was a way of telling the ESO community you were a badass PvE player.

The Praxin fight in Spindleclutch actually was difficult and required group coordination.

You could spawn in an enemy alliance homebase and wreck havoc (more so with a forward camp).

People insisted on using the Tunnel "exploit" for the Lich fight in Wayrest (which, incidentally, made the fight more difficult).

1K DPS was considered a high benchmark

Guilds like Alacrity and No Mercy made PvP something more than a steel tornado blobfest.

The pretty light shows in Rawl from people spamming various skills.

Sanctum was actually an incentive to raid.

Playing a DK was fun.

Nothing came close to being as fun as when I got my Aether set done with.. and then they made it useless.

I just don't recall the kuta thing. I was too low level to care about Kutas yet

Reminds me of ESO Live when they said they are bringing back forwards camps, and then they realized they needed to explain to people what those were lol.

Remember when you actually fed your horse? Your multiple.. Expensive.. Horses...

Remember when Praxin was lootable?

Holycannoli · December 2015

I remember this

Illumous · December 2015

Remember when spamming shield bash provided massive DPS?

Remember when respecs costed 100g per skill point and could not reset just morphs?

Remember when doors in Cyrodiil often didn't work?

Remember when DK chains could pull people off keep walls?

Remember Mercenary Contracts?

Cos no one has said it yet.........

When Gutsripper and Doshia were actually a fight?

Actually more so Doshia because I quickly realised Sheo's pal was limited in the ways he/she could access the platform he starts on

Oh and.....

Remember when going to a new area(especially Vet ones) made you actually notice an increase in difficulty.

At one point I was feeding 21 horses 250 gold each every day... That's 3 horses for each of 8 characters, minus 2 horses that I had already fed to maximum on one character, and one on another. 5,250 gold every single day on horse food for 45 days or so.

If you were stamina you got kicked from raid

The game has come a very long way in a short time when you think about it, gj zos

When people had a very different definition of 'short time' then You did

game has been live for 2 years and has undergone some extremely big changes and changes in their staff in terms of MMO's it's huge in such a small time honestly

I remember when some racials were shockingly poor.

Now, most racials are shockingly poor (because regen is better than everything).

Kelces · January 2016

...you charged ultimates out of combat with healing springs?

...bait could be used as a provisioning ingredient?

...you raged about randoms wasting your forward camps?

Veteran mobs could one shot you.

Health attribute ratio was different to gear and enchants

You could reach most soft caps

The list of campaigns was endless

One day you logged in and your set bonuses had changed

Workable stamina builds were almost non-existent

No class abilities had a stamina morph

Endgame was vet Elden Hollow and Darkshade

When the any race any alliance perk was considered the ultimate blow to faction pride

When a kuta would give you one more spell/weapon damage than a rekuta jewelry enchant

When some combinations had unlimited ultimate generation

Random forward camps placed by spies

The main quest was bugged for a lot of people.

A resto staff was the ultimate weapon for single target dps

Some racials where shocking poor

I'm feeling all nostalgic. More please!

I remember all of dis

AzraelKrieg · January 2016

Forward camps were used for duelling in Cyrodiil.

Zone chat was filled with guild adverts.

The starting zones were filled with chatter that wasn't just trolling

Hehe I remember this, there was a guy in my old guild just to kill things by shield bashing then quit the game as he said it was boring lol
