After being a beta tester, getting in early and now also playing on official launch day I have to say.....

I've had no issues whatsoever. Which is shocking considering how poor my current gaming PC is. Other than a minor but steady hiccup in gameplay I'd have to say this was one of the smoother launches I've seen as someone who has gamed since the late 90s.

Yea I'm old.

Not a single person feels the same?

I wont deny it's been a great launch, as a person who gamed since the 90's as well, how ever it does seem that almost every story quest is broken, more so towards end game now. and minus the greenshade roll backs which are still occuring

I haven't run into many issues either aside from the black screen issues that other players had so helpfully posted the resolution for. Not only is the game running smoothly, but the forums have been great for watching for any game breaking bugs to steer clear of until a fix arrives (such as the bank thefts

Players and Devs alike have been extremely helpful in these forums!

I too am a Beta Tester who hasn't run into much problems thus far. Not to the level a lot of people are reporting.

ESO's launch has been great, and quests haven't been as broken in my encounters.... That said, I haven't even finished Auridon yet on any of my characters, as I've been taking my time and doing thing slowly. Maybe that's why?

In "Daughter of Giants" I was informed-and-then-confirmed that if I skipped through the dialogue boxes with NPCs too quickly, the NPC dialogue from Lyris wouldn't play as she conversed with her father, but if I took my time slowly, and waited a few seconds to be sure that I'd heard all I should from the NPC Dialogue boxes, it played fine.

Maybe one of the reasons the servers have been having so much trouble is because so many people are skipping through things too quickly, and the game isn't able to process the triggers correctly? I dunno, just an idle rambling from someone who has a slight headache...

I have faced some bugs , but nothing major , with some log outs/ins , i managed until not without problems. And ofc , some lag.

Im having a good launch experience like you OP.

With that said , i do understand that others can be having tons of problems , that is the trick with PCs , even similar machines can behave differently for even some small reasons.

I've run into a few bugs, not many and no where near the amount I had in beta.

The game runs superbly on my PC at a nice 2556x1440 res.

But, most people with no problems will be playing rather than typing on here, it stands to reason most posts will be from those having problems, it is the customer support section.

I've posted a fair bit the past couple of days, that's only because real life means I'm not at my PC, hence been sneaking on my tablet when I can, else I too would be playing rather than typing.

Must be pretty frustrating mind you for those that spent what is a lot of money compared to most games and find they can't play for whatever reason.

Game wise I have had no real issues. A couple of broke quests but nothing major.

Well except for the fact that I will be locked out of the game tomorrow because Zenimax and Amazon dropped the ball in regards to physical copies of the game not being shipped on time.

I was frankly singing praises about how awesome the launch was going, that's out the window.

I ran into few issues during the Betas but I haven't been able to login at all for over 24 hours and I couldn't login on the 30th either. Apparently my account shows that I purchased the game but doesn't have an actual game code attached to it. When I was able to play, I didn't run into very many bugs but, as I can't login, I'm not really having a great time.
