What is the main reason you continue to play ESO?

HalloweenWeed✭✭✭Other (explain)I haven't found a game that I like to play better yet.
ESO inventory management bothers me, too much time spent not in combat or not exploring.
If only they had something like ESO but less non-combat time and more exploration time. Step 1: reduce the number of things you can get in your inventory. Don't misinterpret, I do like looting/harvesting. Less variety, bigger stacks.0 -
Skogsalf✭✭✭Other (explain)I enjoy just about every aspect of the game, so I couldn`t possibly pick just one.1 -

✭✭Other (explain)All of the above. Especially the community.
To the despair of my teenagers who cannot understand why I play such a ‘rubbish’ (in their eyes) game. I tell them that if I didn’t enjoy it, I wouldn’t play it, and that it’s more fun than watching crap telly such as soaps, which are apparently fine and ‘normal’.Edited by Hallothiel on December 18, 2018 5:27PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Other (explain)Waiting for a better mmo with similar graphics (not cartoonish),great pvp focus and a team that actually listen to feedbacks and efforts from the community to make the game better to come out.
Can you imagine how great ESO could be if they actually listened to the feedback from the test server? It would be nice if it was more than just a bug reporting venue.2 -

✭✭✭There isn't currently another MMO which peaks my interestCurrently there is no MMO around for me that beats ESO, despite its flaws.
For PvE, I am looking forward to Pantheon, Rise of the Fallen.
For PvP I look forward to Camelot Unchained.
Will they hold my interest long enough? I don't know, I will find out when I play it.٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
"I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."0 -

On like my 4th generation of ESO friends as others left the game and never came back, and if these guys move on, it will time for me to hang it up. Probably won't get sucked into the MMO Microtransaction world again.-- @xaraan --

iiYuki✭✭✭✭✭I've invested so much money and time into ESO that it is difficult to play a different gamePlayed several thousand hours so it feels like I wasted my time if I dont keep playing now, I don't enjoy the game much anymore and basically only log in for the 3 undaunted, check my guild store and my crafting mails."Play how you want... unless its not how we intended you to play in which case we'll nerf it".

If you enjoyed it while you were playing those hours then they weren't wasted. If you continue to play despite no longer enjoying it then that is indeed wasted time.2 -

dovakiin5574✭✭✭✭✭I enjoy the content and the new content releases (dungeons, trials, quests, zones, etc)Its something I'm actually good at and (for the most part) the community is kind and welcoming. The lore is also really cool. ESO helps my depression and anxiety. Its like my home.Edited by dovakiin5574 on December 18, 2018 7:46PMPAPSMEAR - Positively Against Paws SMEAR campaign - Say YES to crown crates2 -

I was going to include an option for those who no longer play, but I was worried the thread would get locked if too many people started talking about why they quit the game.3 -
crjs1✭✭✭✭✭I enjoy the Elder Scrolls loreLove elder scrolls lore and landscapes and actually enjoy most of the quests - that’s what keeps me playing. I also take breaks fairly frequently to keep it fresh, but breaks are getting longer as in some ways the game is getting all a bit samey and recent changes to balance just don’t seem to make any sense...0 -
Tannus15✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I enjoy the communityMy friends are why I keep playing more than anything else, however I have to say I don't see any other MMO even close to how enjoyable the ESO core game play is.
Sure, there are lots of things I'd "fix" if I could, but it's still better than everything else.
If something better came out and my friends were keen then I'd probably leave.Edited by Tannus15 on December 18, 2018 9:57PM0 -

✭✭✭✭I enjoy the Elder Scrolls loreReally wish there was a poll option for multiple answers
I’ve made good friends here, the world building is great (bits of retconning aside), the graphics and art style give me “Asian MMO cringe”, and the fast combat style doesn’t leave me feeling like I spend fights waiting around for my cool downs0
