Should Zos make ESO a single player game?

They could literally make this game a single player game and 90% of the community (casuals) wouldn't even bother.

I say yes, so many people ruining my immersion while I try to sneak in the new awesome TG. I want to be the hero! :'(

    How would ESO as a single player game be any different than a new release of a Single Player Elder Scrolls Game? The whole point behind ESO was so that people could play with their friends, it was never intended to be Skyrim 2.

    What? NO! I play this MMO because I like to keep an MMO going, to be around people when I play, and this is easily the best MMO out there. I also play single player games (currently still Skyrim and Fallout 4, and Cities Skylines)...and don't want or need this to be Skyrim Version 2 thanks :)

    I almost cut myself on that edge.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    You misunderstand SemiD4rkness's point. Babylon said it's the best MMO out there, he said it's not in the top ten. That's a comment on the quality of those games, not the number of players they have.

    Because it's an MMO. It asks a long term investment from players, at least in time but often financial too, to see all of its content, and promises continual updates to support it long after launch. People who made the investment obviously liked the game for some reason, but would feel their investment more worthwhile and would be willing to invest more if the things they disliked were changed.

    Ok so then you are saying it is 100% subjective and only in his opinion are those 10 mmos better than ESO. I wish he would have just said in his opinion rather than stating it like its fact.

    Single player TES is Todd Howard's domain. We should leave it up to BGS to make the next TES installment and just let ZOS continue to do whatever it is they are doing with ESO.

    This has got to be the stupidest poll in the forum to date.

    Clearly this game isnt your thing and it will never be to your liking. ESO is not the next WOW clone. ESO is not and will never be a hard core only game. If you want hard core, you might want to look elsewhere because this game will never be what you want no matter how much you complain or wish it to be.

    I really resent you throwing the term "casual" around to describe anyone that does not agree with you.

    Myself and others have been playing since early beta, and play every day. We are not casual players, we just don't agree with your opinion on what the game should be.

    Is it perfect? No, but right now it is the best game out there for many of us.

    That's fine for minor everyday improvements, but to suggest changing it from an MMO to something else altogether? If a game is so far from giving a player enjoyment then it's surely time to move on.

    "90% of the community (casuals)"? Really?
    Do you even understand the word "casual"?
    This is what it means:
    "lacks serious intent or commitment."
    Most of those you indicate are casual players are both dedicated and committed to playing every day.
    We are NOT casual players at all.
    Just because other idiots use that word,doesnt mean you have to show your lack of understand by the context you are using it in.
