Sadly, this is becoming more and more true. There is a whole generation coming that doesn't know what "RPG" stands for, let alone what it means.It's a good thing nobody gives 1 flying *** about your definition of an RPG.

Of course, I will allow that there are different ways of enjoying the game: there is a right way, and there is a wrong way.The bane of every MMO (and I guess pretty much everything else in life) are close-minded people like you that can't accept that there is different ways of enjoying the game.

Can you elaborate on what have thus been nothing but vagueposts? You seem very convinced about something but it's not clear what.

Here's a hint for you. It's an acronym.
If you're not doing what the letters stand for, in some form, then you aren't doing it right.
It's not a complicated concept. ESO is an RPG. If you aren't playing a role in some fashion, then you aren't playing the game right. Sure, people pay their own money and they can play how they want. They can log in and spin in circles for all I care. But the OP has the gall to call people that don't have a role-play bone in their body the "best" players.Can you elaborate on what have thus been nothing but vagueposts?

Sorry, but no. These players are not the best - no more than a golfer that tries to putt with his nose.

Good riddance.

I heard the new raid coming with Morrowind was implemented just to trigger you.
In all seriousness, at least, for as far as that is still possible
LMAO. Also, I always go throw mudballs at roleplayers in Wayrest when I'm waiting for the raid to start.

A way to balance this, is to keep coming up with new and challenging content. Players who did not complete content like Vmol and maelstrom arena, will have a better chance with time, and those who do not feel this is demanding enough after a while, will get new challenges.
Meanwhile, the priority have been heading in the direction of the more casual part of the game. Housing, decoration, motifs and general everything related to crown store. 16k crowns for a few square meters of space and crown crates.
Meanwhile, to "balance" end game together for more demanding players and CP, we are getting cheap solutions like increase hp on monsters and nerf stats and sustain to keep us busy. I haven't felt real character progression in over a year.
For my own personal reason I'm staying with the game, is to keep the effort of having stable raid groups, not because I'm always enjoying the end game content itself.
I'm sitting here waiting patiently for some changes, and really hope the balance and raiding with Morrowind will be better than the current situation.
There have also been alot of suggestions how small changes could change the end game, with more reasons to do high scores as well as calling it "season" instead of current "leaderboard whipes".
We just lost one of our best players because of disconnects and end game priorities. Customer supports are not taken seriously. It's almost like the answer are auto replies based on the subject. The best players will keep dropping out. If game continues like this, the meta will have a lower standard. Even though the money income are so insane on the crown store and new players, I think investing more in end gaming would give more stable players and a better reputation among the whole gaming community.
Gonna link a video of a player we just lost because of the end game priority. You don't see 57k on rakkath with meteor catch and backyard running every day. Will also post same player on Rakotu with 61k dps single target. Limits are infinite. Impossible is nothing. Haters gonna hate.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgZjIjG8H5A&feature=youtu.be

Also, sometimes people seem to forget that mmo, means that you are playing with other people, which means that the rules are not the same as a single player game.
In a single player game others won't give a *** how badly you play, but in a mmo if you play too badly, and stand in other people's way because of it, then you are dead weight, and dead weight get's kicked from groups.
Sometime ago i did an icp run.
i'm kinda of a minmaxer, not an exeptional player, but a pretty good one.
There were 2 dudes that were your average player, and one that was absolutely terrible, spamming light attack on both aoe and single target fights and using his ulti when it popped up (sometimes).
Guess what happened, we initiated a vote kick, and he was kicked.

Did anyone offer to spend like 15 minutes of their entire life trying to help this guy out? We ran with a 70+ year old guy who did the same thing, but he didn't know any better. Once the concepts of dps rotations were explained and what skills might best suit his lack of motor functions he went away and worked on it and became a 'better' player. This poor fellow who it SOUNDS like you just booted now has had an NPE, a boardgame term that means Negative Play Experience. And that can seriously effect someones attitude towards a certain group of people or the game itself. Be a man / woman. Step up and offer people help when they so desperately need it.

Iv'e got tired of doing it seen that the results. Most times they aren't very good.
Also i believe that if you wanna get good, you should be the one to do the first step, you shouldn't expect people to do that work for you.
Maybe if someone enters a dungeon without knowing even the basics, maybe he or she..... just doesn't give a single ***? How about that?
Because if you were interested in doing at least decently you would look for some information.
