What did I just tell you all?

But no. PC players will tell you that's wrong.

I play on both PC and XB1. your point is moot.

....dude? Some of your character names are against the rules. Just sayin.

only to whimpering unimaginative Carebears who are crying over the fact they lacked the wit to think of it first..

i think there's only maybe two titles i hold in this game, 1. world first vvardenfell skyshard hunter achievement (arguable, unless there's anyone else who did it within 4 hours of it hitting the PTS in closed beta), and 2. most amount of forced name changes due to carebear rage..

So you're calling Zenimax Online a bunch of Carebears? Don't criminalize those who follow the rules, what are you, some kind of Anarchist?

No i'm calling them hypocritical.

the ESRB rating on the game is M- Mature. Content Descriptors - "Blood and Gore. Sexual Themes. Use of Alcohol. Violence."
http://www.esrb.org/ratings/Synopsis.aspx?Certificate=33311&Title=The+Elder+Scrolls+Online

For a game rated M, they certainly adopt a fascist view of tongue-in-cheek names that are timid and within the ratings guidelines. As an example, one of my names is from a SNL skit a decade ago. SNL is USA TV-14! A lesser rating than the game is and that's considered inappropriate? Puhleeeease. Carebears!

Yes there is the certification delay but that does not explain why the Consoles usually only get 1 (maybe 2) updates per 3-month DLC/Chapter life cycle.

Thats because the certification process costs on average $40,000(forty thousand) per patch, per console. Putting out weekly patch updates on consoles would be prohibitively expensive, so you get updates in digest form.

@Conduit0 paying to push patches was done away with on the current generation of consoles.

I can't find any information that supports that, only thing I've found is free patching for indie devs and MS removing the patch cost for XBox 360 Arcade games. Care to link a source?
