You should stop making DLCs and "Chapters" based on previous TES games.

    Build a new zone that you didnt copy and paste topography from a previous tes game.

    Like? Rainbow zone with unicorns, right? Or how about colourful Mushroom zone?

    No like summerset isle or blackmarsh or somthing other than *** ive already done before.

    Ah, its nearly impossible to create zones what draw people in modern MMORPG world. Its been all done before.

    As someone who didn't get into the Elder Scrolls franchise until the legendary game that is The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion(still has one of the most awesome and epic intro cinematics btw), I have absolutely no qualms about them revisiting past locales from previous Elder Scrolls titles in the series and putting them into ESO. I loved Oblivion and Skyrim but nearly every Elder Scrolls/RPG fan I speak to always mentions Morrowind as one of, if not their utmost favourite game. I happy that I'll get to experience my own travels and journeys to Vvardenfell, Red Mountain, Vivec City and the like as I've heard about them from others or from reading the lore books in game(yes I once read the whole Imp City bookshop in one go when I first played Oblivion - don't judge lol).

    Cool its an mmo though so your questing will be *** in comparison to an actuall rpg and there will be 600 different players running around doing exactly what your doing! So I hope you experience is equivalent.

    It is, questing is amazing in this game, the writing quality is on point, it's even slightly better than skyrim's.

    And? We already have Eastmarch and The Rift now. 900 years prior to when TES V takes place. If they added The Reach and Hafingaar (west skyrim fyi) then they'd also be set in the same timeline 900 years before TES V. Considering there are even Reachmen in the game now, this wouldn't even be a big stretch to justify bringing in, so I say they go for it.
    Morrowind I understand, Skyrim would be a bit pointless as we have lots of Skyrim already.
    Reachmen would be the interesting part.

    One race does not has its own zone now, just an starting island, yes orcs had priority as reaper mach is mostly Khajiit.
    Elsweyr could also let the add the ohmes-raht from Daggerfall, they would be popular with its anime catgirl look.
    Wrothgar was an good zone and as said an lack of Orc content.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    For a 600 CP-level player, it sounds like you don't enjoy the setting/game itself/MMO genre. You're more than free to quit, and I would advise doing so considering that it sounds like you're just angry that The Elder Scrolls Online isn't The Elder Scrolls VI

    Playing Fallout4 right after Orsinium was such a jarring experience. By now, ZOS is streets ahead of BGS in terms of story and questing. I'm much more looking forward to ESO's new chapters/DLC than TES6 because of this, sadly.

    Bro this game has been out for 3 years. Adding battle grounds and a class that was in alpha isnt an improvement. Its making up for *** that should have already be in the game. But instead they were to busy copy and pasting TES games and making subpar storylines to cater to players who are chasing there old tes highs. Your an easy source of money compared to actuall mmo players.

    This is precious. Has not even seen the content and knows almost nothing about it and makes this kind of comment.

    Ok, yea, no.

    Based on what he says everything in ESO so far since it all falls within territory of the previous games. My only guess is he has just started playing the game.

    You keep using those words copying and pasting but I don't think you understand what those words mean. I don't think you can call it copying and pasting when they're using absolutely nothing from TESIII outside of the heightmap (which wouldn't change because a continent doesn't change in 700 years).

    Things like buildings/armor/weapons/items/various objects in games have a mesh and a texture. They're using neither of those things because it'd look horribly dated. Just as much work is being put into the Vvardenfell expansion as anything else they've done. By using a heightmap which does not require changing at all, they shaved off a week of development. Good for them for being efficient.

    What was bad about Arena? Serious question as I haven't played it.

    Its a 90's computer game.
    So was Daggerfall, however Arena mostly predates lore and is different in many way.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    As someone who didn't get into the Elder Scrolls franchise until the legendary game that is The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion(still has one of the most awesome and epic intro cinematics btw), I have absolutely no qualms about them revisiting past locales from previous Elder Scrolls titles in the series and putting them into ESO. I loved Oblivion and Skyrim but nearly every Elder Scrolls/RPG fan I speak to always mentions Morrowind as one of, if not their utmost favourite game. I happy that I'll get to experience my own travels and journeys to Vvardenfell, Red Mountain, Vivec City and the like as I've heard about them from others or from reading the lore books in game(yes I once read the whole Imp City bookshop in one go when I first played Oblivion - don't judge lol).
    This is the exact attitude that makes zos not fix bugs and not actually improve on the mmo because theyre more interested in snatching these guys up to buy thier *** and then leave after 40 hours instead of actually trying to make a better mmo

    For a 600 CP-level player, it sounds like you don't enjoy the setting/game itself/MMO genre. You're more than free to quit, and I would advise doing so considering that it sounds like you're just angry that The Elder Scrolls Online isn't The Elder Scrolls VI
    It's actually quite the contrary i love eso as an mmo. But its an mmo. And they need to stop catering to rpg fan boys like yourself. And make the mmo better.

    How are they catering to RPG fan boys (me allegedly) by releasing an expansion pack that improve ESO by adding more features and content?
    Bro this game has been out for 3 years. Adding battle grounds and a class that was in alpha isnt an improvement. Its making up for *** that should have already be in the game. But instead they were to busy copy and pasting TES games and making subpar storylines to cater to players who are chasing there old tes highs. Your an easy source of money compared to actuall mmo players.

    You keep using those words copying and pasting but I don't think you understand what those words mean. I don't think you can call it copying and pasting when they're using absolutely nothing from TESIII outside of the heightmap (which wouldn't change because a continent doesn't change in 700 years).

    Things like buildings/armor/weapons/items/various objects in games have a mesh and a texture. They're using neither of those things because it'd look horribly dated. Just as much work is being put into the Vvardenfell expansion as anything else they've done. By using a heightmap which does not require changing at all, they shaved off a week of development. Good for them for being efficient.
    Idk where you heard that they just copied the height map. They copied alot more assets than that youll see. And just because you photoshop the image doesnt mean its not copy and pasted.

    Again, what are they copying? They can't copy the mesh because they're low poly, they can't copy the textures because they're ugly, they can't copy the sounds.... What are they copying? The burden of proof is on you my friend.

    watch the eso live from the 10th

    I'm ecstatic I get to visit Vvardenfell in ESO and am even happier it's arriving as a full-fledged expansion. This is fantastic for the game.

    Suit yourself :/
