Was going to make a poll but the forum has been poll heavy lately :lol:

For me it's roughly 6-10 hours a day, everyday. Recently it's been more like 4 hours a few times a week though.

    From Monday to Thursday I play around 3 hours a day (work takes up most of my time unfortunately), As for Friday, Saturday and Sunday it's normally 5-10 hours per day.

    I usually log in daily, but the length depends on my work schedule.

    Running a car dealership means sometimes I get home at 7:00 pm and sometimes it's closer to 11:30 pm.

    I usually get in at least an hour, but sometimes I'm lucky and get in 3 or so.

    Yeah, I haven't mastered the poop-whilst-playing skill yet either. One day... One day.

    maybe 1-2 hours or less in a day maybe 1-3 days a week but that has been my ability to play. At least until I can get my wife into the game then I can play more since she would want to play instead of watching Netflix. lol

    Well, joking aside... I'm gone around 14 hours on work days (store manager) so when I get home I have just enough time to do pledges on a character or two depending on what Gold is. On weekends its game on, I'm in-game all day doing dungeons or working on an alt. Luckily I have 3 day weekends.

    Generally 4-6 hours a day. Sometimes I can't log on on weekends though, because I'm not at home.

    I log on every day (barring anything out of the ordinary preventing me from logging on, of course) to grab my hireling mails if nothing else. Most days I play at least an hour, sometimes significantly longer. It's as uncommon for me play for more than 4 hours in a day as it is for me to play less than an hour (and less than an hour usually means that all I did was grab my hireling mails).

    I play a lot, most days I would say. I try to log in before work in the mornings to do a couple writs and pick up hireling mails. Sometimes I'll hop on during my lunch break and try to do something interesting. I usually play after the kids have gone to bed in the evenings except for the two nights a week that I reserve for specific guild events.

    It varies though, if I get caught up in a personal side project or something I might go a week or two doing not much more than picking up hireling mails. That and Fallout 4 put a pretty serious dent in my ESO time last year.

    I play every day, maybe 6 - 10 hours.

    You need to level up you RL skill line to access the quest. It's not just a quick sidequest either, it's a whole questline.

    I heard that if you do not use a hardened ward you can have a bunch of little quest givers running around as well.

    Be advised: you need to be really careful with the red dialogue choices in this one. Pick poorly and you might get roped into another whole quest line and that one can cost some serious gold to abandon.

    It's a daily npc that you have access to once you grind your reputation high enough. I've heard you can get them via cash shop sometimes.

    Once you have this npc she'll give you quests, usually involving satisfying her wants and needs. Complete them and she'll reward you with many benefits. Once you do enough dailies you'll be able to wear the "Doesn't Matter Had ***" title.

    It's part of my game rotation.

    I didn't buy Shadows of the Hist as my wife and I never run the Group Dungeons, so new content is a bit light for us currently. So while we keep up on our daily writs and in-game mail, I've played it less per day than usual for the last month as I play some other games that I've long neglected since ESO came to consoles.

    But I still at least log in every day to check my stuff.

    Our core team has 2 girls who are both OP as heck. Haha

    I play a couple hours every day. We have recently been doing 2-3 hours of raid, 3 nights a week. It's hard to do much more after that because it is rather intense and exhausting. I am pretty *** about logging in to at least do writs on 6-7 toons every day if nothing else. It's the only way to afford my potion habit. I work long hours, but the GF works saturday, which means I usually get to play all day. :smiley:
