As a new player scaling has made this game enjoyable for me.

I'm level 10. I installed the game about 3 days ago after trying about a year before and I couldn't get into it. I was constantly running into areas that were too high for me. If I got lost, I was screwed. There were so many quests that I would get overwhelmed easily. Now I can follow quests easier and go where I want to go with out fear of being smashed. There is still challenge but not like before, quests can be easily soloed at this level now. Not only that, as someone that enjoys completing every quest I can find it's so nice not to out level an area before you can finish them all. Good job on this change! I'm really enjoying this game a lot :)
Today is a blessing. Yesterday is in the past and tomorrow is a mystery.

    The good part of scaling is that you always get XP, whereas before if you over leveled you didn't get any XP for killing NPC's lower than you. This is especially true for players whole spend most of their time in PVP and then return to the PVE zones doing quests; for example, I had one character that reached VR 1 before completing the third zone so with the exception of getting XP for questing, I didn't get any for killing NPCs while doing these quests.

    The game seems more populated now, and in theory, it should be easier to create groups for group event now.

    I like the direction the game is going, the dueling is awesome too.

    I've not been able to get online for a week so have not been able to log on since update. Does 1t mean that old grinding spots you outlevelled now have xp and item drops?

    I wish the game was scaled when I leveled my 4 characters. Zones got really boring halfway trough them because I was already 6 levels above them, and killing enemies gave no XP and no loot. If I found sets they were always useless because they were underleveled. XP from quest was meager and the rewards were useless, non set items as well. The Silver and Gold areas were always dead, empty and also for the most part underleveled, with the drops and nodes out of synch since veteran rank elimination (another good move). Overall I consider One Tamriel a very good change.

    Wish I could be as positive as you all...I liked the empty places of Cadwell's Gold...especially for my resources, such as Columbine. That said...I will get used to this new way...

    @Da_Nutz - yes.
