    The game is so easy now and people still want it easier. Pretty soon you'll be able to create a character and complete vMA on it in your lunch break.

    Some of us did things the hard way and are proud of it; Master Crafter without using research scrolls, maxed out horse training on all characters without without training scrolls, reaching and passing VR/CP cap without XP scrolls, taking our first character to other alliance zones by doing Cadwells Silver and Gold before 1T allowed you to go anywhere.

    That was the game we bought and we accepted it and got on with it, instead if whining about it.

    I totally agree with you.
    I reached everything on my own without fancy xp potions, events, or scrolls. My main is mastercrafter since 3 year, i reached it in 2014. damnit. sweet times was those. allways knew every motif. My 2nd character is also a master crafter. maximum on everything. never whined. i was glad i reached it. fed my horses to max lvl on all char of mine. 13 char. rly. i never whined about stuffs like this. but nowadays causal players are everywhere. and making topics like THIS. jeez. ...

    this and the account bound skyshard and book. etc *** is annoying me.

    yes game is to easy, basic content you can solo with LA withou gear gg but this is not same as jsut mindless grinding same things which you have done before..these are jsut grind like old veteran rank..if you really like this grind over and over with achievs then I think you chould be in heaven in old time where we have veteran ranks and can add from myself an suggest to make cp character bound like everything else in this game ;) or atleast gear character bond, also nice option to add soe more grind if game at higher lvl is still to easy as I understand with yout thinking...game to easy - make more grind to leave game to be more played!

    thats why I wrote at end most important thing...option to link character for account progression or no for these roleplayers
    That is basically saying the same old, tired "Oh, it could be -optional- so all the others can still work for their stuff... but just give the stuff to me, Me, ME!!! Gimme! Gimme stuff! So I don't have to spend the effort to earn it!"
    Its one of the "arguments" that always vexes me. Its like saying "Oh, you can work for your salary if you like, but I demand to be paid without working because reasons!"
    You can see how people that did spend the effort might get a little annoyed at that sort of reasoning, yes? ;)

    As I often keep saying...
    ...if its worth it to you, well, then you will spend the effort, on your main and any of your alts you deem worthy.
    ...if it isn't worth spending the effort to you, then you will have to do without on this or that character, main or alt.

    and I dont really see people wanting to learn same motis again if they learned it for their crafter...
    Whoever said they had to? Just craft your stuff on your crafter! There is -literally- no reason At All to learn motivs on more then one character, -except- achievement chasing... and well, if that is worth it to you, then you can do so, but you do not -need- to in any concievable way. (unless you were foolish and split your crafting between two characters before you knew there were enough skill points in the game for doing it all on one... :hushed: )

    The only benefit there would be being able to do writs at "master crafter level" on -every- character... and that is not something people should be able to do unless they put in the effort to get there on -every- character.

    and eso gives more account wide stuff than other games?
    Then all the other MMORPGs I ever played, yes.
    Maybe not more then the non-rpg MMOs... seeing how I never played those... but when it comes to the (admittedly not too many) MMORPGS I played... most had no account wide banks (some had those as extra cash store purchase, one had a very limited account bank in addition to the normal character bank), most had no account wide mail, no or limited (like, cash shop stuff yes, lockbox and quest drop stuff no) account wide outfit options, and I never ever saw an acocunt wide alternate advancement system in any other game...
    And the only account wide "achievements" I ever saw were the "gamerscore" things on console which are something entirely different...
    I agree that titles etc should remain bound on characters, but would love a system to see overall progress. It's also braindead easy to do. There already is an addon doing that, worst case ZOS would copy-paste it :D
    Indeed, I really think that giving people more things without effort is a bad idea for a game, but an overview across all characters... that would be nifty! All the achievements avaibable at the character selection screen, each with a list of "done by -name- at -date-", and a "total achievement score" across ALL your characters, so you see just how much you have achieved as -player- while still keeping the usual journal achievement screen for the particulars characters achievements (and for checking how close they are to gaining the achievement).

    And like I said, they could add some rewards for multiple completions, like stuff that was discontinued from the crown store (I'd love to see the blacksmith and cook costume there, or the old "loyalty rewards" like the ice wraith, sphere or senche mount... and of couse, so many "NPC only" visuals that they could give out that way... expecially if they made something available in two ways, one way through some very difficult and/or lucky like rare drops, the other just by completing things in multiple ways - like those monster helm/shoulder visuals, either get lucky on the time-limited drop, or just beat the boss like in every alliance for the sshoulder and with every class for the helmet to get it that way...)
