    Monster Hunter is great, but it's no ESO. It will last about as long as every other Monster Hunter game.

    Ahh bandwagon jumpers. As soon as a new game comes out they all jump on the bandwagon. Then another comes out and they jump on that bandwagon. I play a game until i get tired of playing it, then i play something else. I dont care what everyone does.

    My friends left ESO to found a religious cult in the mountains, marrying goats and living off (their) nuts and berries.
    I'm joining them as soon as Star Citizen leaves alpha.

    Wait for me, bretheren!

    Lost track of the amount of times ESO has "died" because of another game, devs must be necromancers...

    No @Milvan you aren't allowed to leave.

    You haven't tidied your house, and you still have another 756783 daily quests to perform... Only then can you leave and go out to play! :D

    Im pretty sure ill be leaving monster hunter always had a better goal for endgame.
    Goal hunt the monster to get its gear then use gear to hunt bigger badder monster for its gear. Then when you have best gear hunt the baddest beast of the entire game once you do that hunt a larger one for bragging rights. Dlc comes get new tough fun hunts sometimes insane huge beasties.

    Eso run same dungeon 300 times get trait you need clear trial get the trial gear thats inferior to current gear question what do i do if ive already got best gear... re run the same thing again because ppl say so zos does update same gear still bis next update new trial same gear still best...

    Its like i wanna stay for eso given the time investment... but lately its just that a time investment

    Three of my characters are named after Monster Hunter... monsters (and a fourth inspired), so yea I'm definitely excited. You don't have to dump ESO for it, though. I fully intend on playing both. They're different types of games.

    ya true but not as much as this one. Prior to 2010 people stayed in MMO's for much longer periods. though they had smaller pop bases due to premium payment models. ESO has the most churn of any game ive ever played. there is very little retention just more new people recycling through the turnstyle. Its a large reason the end game community is non existent now, when it used to thrive there was constantly pugs for normal and Vr trials and honestly more dungeons going on with out a group finder then their are now with one. In EQ 2 you could have logged in for a month at launch left and returned in 2008 and found a lot of your friends list still playing and launch guilds still working the raid progression. not one person i knew out of 500 is sill playing and ive refreshed my friends list and been part of at least 35 different guilds here that no longer exist.

    Older MMOs also had less competition. Today, the mobile market reigns, as teens and kids spend more time on phones and tablets than on console or PC.

    There are loyal players in ESO. My trade guild and social guild has a bunch who have been playing since launch. Those guilds have also been around since launch.

    So, why does the OP get 250-300 ms ping? I get the same; basically because I live in South Africa. I knew that my ping would be high when I started playing, so I don't really see it as a reason to complain. Maybe the OP's problem is also distance related?

    Not elite, not the best. Just enjoying ESO.
    Not the worst either. "Casual" != "totally ignorant"

    People always leave for the newest, hyped game. That doesn't mean anything. I still remember in 2014, when people were saying that Wildstar would destroy ESO and steal all their players.. Good old times.

    Wildstar was predicted to kill ESO, then so were Witcher 3, GTA5, Fallout4, Black Desert Online, Divinity2, Destiny2, Secret World Relaunch, ARK survival, PUBG, and whatnot. And... look how dead ESO is !! :D
    Oh, and who makes those predictions ? ESO forumers, of course...
