    Bots seem to cause at least some of the server stress. And they're very annoying...always stealing my resources!

    Bots seem like they would be far easier to deal with for ZOS than performance issues. The two poll options are not equal to each other. Performance issues and bots would also be addressed by different departments and are not mutually exclusive.

    Performance issues
    I had a custom laptop built for me specifically for gaming and I still have 30-40 fps regularly. my husband has an even better PC and has the same issues. I can always quest, RP, do housing alone without dealing with the economy

    Ive found that in playing very sparingly now....bots are only a problem if in an area I’m questing in. Otherwise it’s farming and I myself don’t farm other than needed items or materials so the bots are a much smaller concern

    ZOS can deal with bots but can't do anything against performance issues :D

    If they get the games performance and coding up to par they can build in a bot fighter

    Performance issues
    I look at it this way:

    If you can't play the game, you can't complain about the bots.

    Quite clearly Performance optimisation matters a lot more, since the thing that is first and foremost will always be gameplay (regardless of how you play the game). If it runs like ***, it'll impact your time with the game a lot more than bots will. Unfortunately it seems like ZOS cares more about the bots than the performance, which is how it has come to this. It's quite telling too that even on the PTS the game runs terribly, indicating that it clearly extends beyond simply just serverload issues, plus let's not forget that they also managed to bring back the memory leak..

    Bots all the way because that cant be fixed so easily and i have very little performance issues so it is not so big of a problem.

    I find bots problematic but it's not the deal breaker for this game. When people complain about something in game it is usually about performance. I rarely read a peep about bots.

    Don\t really have performance issues I only lag because of my distance to ESO servers and plus Australian internet is crap compared to other countries. Bots on the other hand are an issue because essentially it's cheating and we all know how we feel about cheaters.

    Other games have clever ways to stop bots without affect user performance. Just gotta make up something clever and put some effort. Cripple the entire player base to deal with bots is not clever. That said the only performance drop I felt was after the lighting patch.

    I play on console..I don't believe I've seen any bots before...but performance issues are a definite. My frame rate drops constantly.

    I primarily wish that the bug allowing one to play as a N'wah would be fixed, but I suppose this issue is somewhat important.

    I had 3 infinite load screens just yesterday alone. Persistent lag all night long. Some of that may have been on my end but the poll doesn't differentiate that. I could go months without seeing a bot depending on the content I'm doing. This one is a no brainer.

    Here's my thing. I'm not sure it's bots causing the prices to rise. I've played many mmo's and invariably there will be a group that care more about making money then playing the game. This group is who complains about bots. Why this fetish over fake currency? Beats me but they are the ones that drive prices up and up. My opinion but then again I have yet to see any data that points to bots being the cause. For now I'm going to go with what I know and that's human greed. It's a thing even in fantasy

    Performance issues are bothering me directly.

    Bots... So what if there's running around. My PC can handle that many players at once, and they're only in the Alik'r Desert, my most despised zone in this game, so I only come there for skill points, and then I'm out.
