ESO Needs to make more DLC's like One Tamriel

reguvin · March 2018

I have been playing since PC Beta and i have to say that One Tamriel was the best DLC ever, the game was packed on both Console and PC Servers. Also alot of players returned to ESO to try out the many major changes made.

We need a new DLC that is on the same level as One Tamriel each year to make the player base Happy and even more Interested to keep playing it.

One Tamriel wasn't a DLC. Homestead was supposedly a One-Tamriel-esque update and so is the Outfit system. You are demanding something ZOS has already said they will do.

ZOS' annual release schedule:
1Q Free content update (+Dungeon DLC?)
2Q Chapter
3Q Zone DLC
4Q Dungeon DLC

Now the main question is, what kind of major content update are you looking for that would make players happy the way one tamriel did?

I think it might be time for this MMO to fail so that we can get a proper Elder Scrolls VI in the pipeline. As long as ESO thrives, the singleplayer RPG will never arrive.

Separate company and development teams. I'm sure the two can coexist just fine and ESO has no role in delaying TESVI

Tell me you wouldn't drop ESO in a hot minute if you're singleplayer dream came true and you had tons of mods to apply. It would directly compete with the online game. And knowing the developer, you'd still start in a prison.

I can't speak for everybody but I would play both. I mean, I'm still playing skyrim and at the moment I'm playing ESO.

Zenimax is not Bethesda. Bethesda said they have plans to do TES6 in the future, but they don’t have the technology yet to do what they want to do with it. It’s going to be a good while, but when they make it, it will be good.

Be patient padawan.

And I don't believe that 1 bit. Todd repeats what Pete Hines tells him. Zenimax owns Bethesda --- don't they? So, how are they not the same? Zenimax doesn't want one of its subsidiaries competing with its online MMO. Thus, you get statements like above.

"We have rad ideas. But, you know, the tech hasn't caught up to our ideas" Meanwhile, cars that drive themselves are being sold today. Elon Musk's company has successfully developed re-usable rocket boosters. And companies like Ubisoft and CD Projekt Red ( a smaller studio) run circles around Bethesda's graphics department.

Heck, they may already have it and can't release it. You don't know and neither do I. What amazing tech could they possibly be waiting on? Wearable tech? VR? What?

Well, I won't do that. I didn't really played any single TES games before, so I'm not missing a new one.

It is safe to say most TES fans would though.
I tend to agree with some of his opinions.
Warcraft 4 never came because of WoW.
MMOROG games make the most "cheap" profit with comparatively low investment.

I don’t think Zos owns Bethesda. I could be wrong. But, wouldn’t it make sense that if they did own Bethesda, they would want to sell as many products as possible? Single player TES games have a huge fan base, but not everyone likes MMOs, and I’m sure Zos understands that.

Aside from people like myself who would happily play both games, there are even more people who are salivating at the idea of a new single player game. Zos would be losing out on a lot of sales if they were actually responsible for TES6 not being released.

Loved Skyrim, Love ESO

will I play TES6 sure. but ill return to ESO

You cant play a TES single player game with friends. Unless they change the whole TES model.

JungleBoot · March 2018

Returning to ESO after TES VI:

I completely understand that. But, the massive departure could seriously hurt their bottom line and people would return in stages. Some would be back the next month. Many others wouldn't return for 6 months. Still more might not return at all once they got out of the hamster wheel. That is what you are failing to see.

Loss of Sales and Why not both?

The primary product would suffer because the newer product would fill that "void" or "special something" that players get from TES. Crown store sales would instantly drop and there would be a decline in subscriptions. They could survive the short term disruption. What about the long term? They have to pay the bills to keep the servers running, the employees that maintain them paid, and all other support functions. So, how long can they do that without steady income? Let's say they have enough to continue for several years with low subscription numbers. How many players would actually return? Those are the concerns amongst others. And I'm probably listing basic concerns.

Sanctum74 · March 2018

They've been doing exactly what you are asking for, but instead it's had the opposite affect and is driving players away because they keep ignoring performance issues.

I too miss the days of everyone being excited for the new dlc, but a quick search of the forums will quickly show that people are at the point that they dread new patches and dlc's because the performance keeps getting worse.

2 patches ago they broke respawning and travel in pvp and took them a month to fix it. The latest patch we have random resource drain, no cc immunity, invisible groups of players, and many other bugs with no eta of a fix or if it will even ever be fixed.

Sorry to ramble on, but I think we need to stop asking for new content and stop supporting them financially until they make a serious effort to fix their game.

One thing I will commend them on is storage, it's great now I can finally cancel my eso+ and no longer need that crafting bag. 4 days eso+ free and counting

Nope, because it would have that whole "Creation club" and I don't want to pay for mods.

Considering their completely different genre's, they could coexist just fine

I...don’t think that’s how people operate. If that was true, then every new game that came out would eventually steal every customer from every old game. People tend to bounce around depending on how they’re feeling on a particular day.

Single player TES games are also a very different gameplay experience from ESO. Playing both offers quite a bit of variety.

ESO has given opportunity for Bethesda game studios to try other genres and make other worlds.
They don't want to make only Elder Scrolls and Fallout and they like to take their time to make a quality product.
We can get Elder Scrolls with ESO while Bethesda makes something NEW

Stinkyremy · March 2018

"Playing since beta" yet only like 460cp in game, not gained a cp in over 2 years.

You only want more people in the game so you can exploit them and create even more of a monopoly so you can sell gold for irl cash.
We all know what you are doing, yet ZOS don't gaf and let you get away with it with your xxx amount of dummy accounts, fake guilds, glitching traders and having a monopoly.

You are a cancer to this game, for honest players, and for breaking tos yet never getting permabanned.

I wouldn't. There is no need. I can and have played, simultaneously, an MMO and a single player. One doesn't exclude the other.

I wouldn't. I'm playing both. With a little Dragon Age: Origin/Inquisition thrown in. And some Doom when I want to blow things up. [youtube, Miracle of Sound, the fun metal DOOM song] And latest Wolfenstein. Dishonored. Fallout4 once in a while.....

And yes, it seems to be a tradition for Bethesda to start the player in an Elder Scrolls game off in a prison/dungeon/prison transport ship....I'd be disappointed if they didn't, actually.

One tamriel wasn't a dlc lol and it might have made the servers packed with people but it didn't do justice for pvp it makes no sense to me that someone you fight in pvp you have to be on the same server with them in pve I liked it the way it was before one tamriel especially for pvp purposes there was actually loyalty to your alliance now pvp is not competitive at all if they would make faction lock again revert the changes that they made with one tamriel the game would be better pvp wise idk about pve but I have no interest in pve it's to boring

Jake1576 · March 2018

Eso use to feel more like a single player game before one tamriel I remember having places I use to farm mats before one tamriel was released and enjoyed farming with only a few ad then after one tamriel every spot I use to farm was packed there was to many people there I also use to like going to are alliances werewolf shrine and vampire shrine and giving bites but since one tamriel was released those spots are dead most the time now if you ask me one tamriel sucked in my opinion lol also everything I'm referring to is about ps4 na other people's experiences might be different on the servers you play

Anotherone773 · March 2018

FYI Bethesda and ZOS are owned by the parent company Zenimax Media which has a pretty large portfolio of developers, IIRC. From what i read, Bethesda is taking a break for a few years from a new TES or Fallout because they want to work on other projects, rather than go TES> Fallout> TES> Fallout like they have been doing. I think ESO was designed to give us our "fix" while they work on other projects.

AFAIK ZOS just manages ESO. If they are keeping with other similar setups from other companies. ZOS manages the front end. Website, general support, GMs, IT, and other day to day operations. Bethesda would operate the back end: content updates, bug fixes, etc.

Updating an MMO is a less intensive task than making a new game. Especially since they can use filler content...things that are repeatable such as delves, dungeons, and dailies. It doesnt take much time to create instances, i know i use to make my own dungeons. Its the zone content with the level of detail one comes to expect with ES titles. And the cities as well. A city like abah's landing would of took a lot of time.

So imagine that gives them more time to work on other projects, rather than big projects like new TES and fallout titles. Also would explain why a lot of bugs dont get fixed. Likely put minimal effort into bug fixes, sort of a "spare time" thing.

Jake1576 · March 2018

A video I recorded back when I use to farm the saber cats outside of riften way before one tamriel there was only a few ad that would farm there but today if you go to this spot on ps4 na it's over ran

I wished the game would go back to the way it use to be before one tamriel
