Positive experience of the day:

Greetings all,

We are always glad to see a positive thread. To keep this thread positive, we have taken a moment to remove the negative, non-constructive posts. We would like to just add a friendly reminder that we keep this thread positive and constructive. Thank you all in advanced!

Hum, how do we as a community tell YOU, the company running this game what we dont like about it as feedback if all you do is remove them? what is this, russian propaganda?

This is true

Yay they updated the forum background, no more gumpy orcs glaring at me!

GreenGhostMan · March 2016

Thank you for the scrolling combat text!!

I'm impressed by the amount of content ZOS has released recently. And I appreciate the crown discounts when releasing new DLC.

I also like the recent damage buffs for templars!!

Positive thought for the day:

I'm positive ZOS has no clue.

I wish I would have been a million reasons happy, but I am still happy. I would like to see a little more change in the way PVP is played out like implement a small scale 5v5 or 10v10 scenarios. The forward camps have added a crazy element which is nice. Still my favorite game.

You take that back!! That Orc background was beautiful!

Daraugh · March 2016

Oh and I just got Oblivion, I wanted to play even more after all the 10th anniversary stuff! I never had the chance, too many time constraints already, but Green Man Gaming has an 80% off sale and I had a birthday coupon burning a hole in my virtual pocket so I bought it and started playing it this morning. At about 5:30 am... After just a few hours I'm even deeper into the lore of the entire Elder Scrolls universe and even a couple things I didn't get before, like the quickslot wheel, make sense to me now.

When I have more time and the patience to fiddle with the dosbox emulator, I can't wait to play everything from the very beginning! I just love this lore!

Each day I log in I find nice individuals to interact with, whether for dailies or throughout campaigns.
Recently I've had a lot of fun in pvp nonCp as well; we were like 3-5 ppl playing off each other's strengths without actually being in the same group (initially), and managed to overthrow a zerg vs zerg lumber fight from the other 2 alliances with some fwd camps, sieges and clever play

Being a Morrowind lover I also appreciate the "easter-egg" lore aspect of the game and in this direction, I'm looking forward to other potential bits of tes universe to be implemented in the future. Oh and I also find the environment/graphics pretty.

Although I am apprehensive about the developers changing tanking, I think that they may do something good for the role in the future.

@Personofsecrets thanks for being positive in the thread!

I am new to the MMO experience and maybe ESO should not have called it an MMO,.

They didn't. It's been marketed as an "MMORPG" which I think pretty much does describe it.

I like.... the kitty pet, and the fact that it's clearly the same one that roams around IC

I like ... un-killable guards (go Justice!).

I like ... the way the fennic fox's ear twitches

@newtinmpls thanks for leaving something positive on the thread!

Positive thread for real!?!?

Nice try tho!

Hey @VoiDGhOs7 thanks for buying the game and playing!!!

Beta testing since beta and still beta testing but don't worry lag on PS4 is going to be worse after every patch then you'll see the truth.

@VoiDGhOs7 Been here since beginning as well through beta! I am still thankful that the game has been created and I am positive that this game will get way better. Thanks for sharing your opinion on PS4 Lag. I actually don't experience it.

I'm not sure about arena, but Daggerfall is quite something.

@houimetub17_ESO you can say what you feel as long as it complies with forum rules. This is their platform and the big thing that they ask is that you at LEAST keep it constructive. Thanks for your post.

You mean the other 100+ threads aren't enough, there can't be one thread for people who want to share positive experiences and what we like about the game?

I've been in since beta and am ingame daily. Family and friends join me at times.

SAME!

If you want to leave feedback do it in another thread. Dont hijack this one. Thats what I think the mods are trying to say.

@qrichou I understand how you feel, however WE as the consumer DO NOT HAVE a clue what is going on within their world. We are assuming they aren't doing anything......if ZOS are in fact busting their *** then I among most would feel pretty bad if we consistently bash them. I made this thread so that the people that actually enjoy this game for all the HARD WORK already invested get heard. I also hope some of the ZOS employees don't feel we take advantage of them.

That's all. I understand your concerns and I know you are annoyed but we should remain optimistic of this games future. sometimes I feel like this community comes off like spoiled children.

anyways thanks for sharing how you feel.

I like how the devs have been very responsive after patches go live for each system for instance on another post regarding the questions about combat text and the colors and what it all means here is the dev quote. thought I would share it here

We use color, punctuation, and position to communicate the type of event in combat text. Color tells part of the story but isn’t fully accessible for everyone, so we use contextual positioning and punctuation to reinforce what color is communicating.

Here’s a breakdown:
