    Banner is ugly, hat is dumb, personality is just plain awful, recipes are useless.

    No motif chapters Thankfully so only had to do this crap for two days to get all achievements.

    Witcher's Festival was fun, it's all been downhill from there.

    double xp and enlightenment..? OK, fine. Once daily enlightenment cap is reached I shelve ESO and move on to watching paint dry for more excitement.
    Rule #1: RL trumps gaming.
    Rule #2: True immersion is RL.
    Rule #3: RL lag is wonderful.
    Rule #4: People matter. Pixels do not.

    Of course the same people that constantly bash ZoS refer to them as Zo$ and generally cry about everything aren't going to like the event.

    Zenimax could hand them a bar of gold and they would cry because it's too heavy. I personally like the event the writing was better than anything Iv'e seen Blizzard or Arenanet do in ages, I thought it was a bit short though.

    Anyway different strokes.

    I got the title on two characters. My main Templar and my new DK I've levelled.

    Not interested in it anymore.

    One year at one of my old jobs, we got a Christmas bonus on our paychecks. It was an ok amount, but quite a few people complained that it was too small for them. My employer decided to take note of everyone who said that.

    Next year came around. We got our Christmas bonus checks again. Well, I should say, some of us did. Every person who complained the previous year, got nothing.


    There's a lesson to learn here.

    Sounds like your employer was petty and immature, and couldn't handle criticism.

    I think they kinda deserved it for complaining about free money regardless of how much. IMO people should be grateful if they are given a gift.

    Now back to the topic. I don't think the event is boring but it definitely isn't the best one so far. I wish it had more rewards you can get instead of most of the items being purchased in the crown store although the crown of misrule and the trees you can buy when you get all the achievements are enough to keep me happy. Too many banners though.

    I was going to fill one of the full rooms with them but couldn't get it to work. Is 3 the limit on things I can put in a free room?

    Dialogs of the three "kings" are very funny.
    This event seems to be less about endless farming than the others, and I apreciate that.
    Let's see what comes next tomorrow.

    I only found Jorunn funny. The other two added nothing to my life.

    They're not for everyone, just as battlegounds isnt for everyone or trials. I think it hits the casual or rp crowd which is fine. I did it for recipes.

    After my 20th banner and 11th Princess recipe and lord knows how many of those things you throw in the air, I stopped.
    Three days of doing all of the dailies over four characters and that was it for me.
    Back to getting stuff for my house.

    The festivals are all like this. Do some basic running around quests and that's it. But the recipes are usually nice (I'm digging the 2 new purple ones a lot) and the double exp is invaluable. I'm perfectly fine with the festival.

    IF they could change one thing though it would be make the festival decorations more widespread. Several other games I have played had different festival type things and all over the map different towns and cities were decorated as if everyone was actually celebrating it instead of just 3 small little tents lol. It would certainly be more immersive. It's currently like, if it were Christmas but there was only a single tree in town square that had lights up. Kind of pathetic if you ask me.
    Hey everyone! Look! It's a signature!

    Yes, this one is the dullest of the festivals so far. I ended up just buying all the recipes in the Guild Store to get it done.

    But, it's not mandatory content, skip it if it's not your bag. The recipes in this one are not important enough to grind for.

    All the festivals are basically the same thing though.

    Go to a place, do a thing for a person. Collect a widget and bring it back. Do something to players.

    It's not supposed to be riveting new material, just a fun distraction from your other actives.

    You just explained what QUESTING is & that is exactly why I do not quest 99% of the time.

    Someone yesterday in zone chat said, 'Emily, you should create a character named 'Emily has Cake". And then he said "Everyone would want you".

    I personally don't enjoy the events for the questing, I enjoy the festival food :)

    I am an event Cheerleader, and this is my cheer :)

    Give me some cake!
    Give me some pie!
    Give me some double xp!

    ESO You are the best!
    Put us to the test!
    Give us more, give us more, give us lots of goodies to eat!


    Happy Monday :)

    Yeah, agree. Got the XP Boost pie and got sick of the rest real quickly. Especially since I only get the stupid Jester Banners over and over. Destroyed everyone of them. Junk.

    I thought it was great. It's the only holiday event I've actually finished so far.

    Plus, it was worth it just for ripping things off from Ebonheart citizens...
