• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 13
Update 50 is now available for testing on the PTS! You can read the latest patch notes here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/categories/pts

Would you play the game if Cyrodiil were only zone to play, and PvE wouldnt exist at all?

    Yes, but if this game was open world, seamless, and PvP I'd be in Heaven.

    I feel PVP works best in short objective focused instances, not running around for three hours to get to a keep, die, then have to drive back for another three hours. Sustained open world PVP like that is an antiquated form of gaming that doesn't fit with modern trends in games.

    If you like it great, you got an outlet. But the majority is quick play.

    Maybe for a little bit but not for all the years i have invested. Pvp is this games mini game.

    I enjoy the odd pvp but cyrodiil alone is far too one dimensional to keep my interest for this many years. I lived in it for the first half of my playing time but after a year or so of tower farms it's time to find new challenges.

    Fun Fact:

    "Arena started, as the name might suggest, as a medieval-style gladiator game. You had a team of fighters and went around the world fighting other teams in each city's arena until you became grand champion in the Imperial City."

    While I mostly play pvp nowadays (95%), this is still an elder scrolls game which is why I bought it first. When a new zone comes out, I will play that and be amazed at graphics and stuff and then return to Cyrodiil.

    That's sadly due to the majority of gamers these days having shorter attention spans.

    Hahahahahaha! Absolutely not. You can't role-play and tell stories in such a hostile environment. Also, there's virtually no content in Cyrodill. By "no content" I mean no significant questing or story, which is the only content I really care about.

    Yes. I would actually love a game that was basically Cyrodiil without having to PvE to supply my character there. Would be great.

    As it is; I think I might start playing Anthem when it comes out with only PvE and this will be my PvP fix.

    Or Would you play ESO if they took out Cyrodiil out all together. Just left PVE and Battlegrounds in should have been one of answers.

    I would say yes to that.

    I play in Cyrodiil most days and after the usual performance issues come up I am left wondering if my time would be better spent in PVE land.

    there isn't a poll option that I agree with.

    A pure PvP spinoff of Cyrodill and BGs is something I'd be very interested in. Balancing the game just for PvP would be good, being able to level, equip, and support a character just through PvP would be good, fixing the Lag/server issues would be great.
    ZOS would have to fix the performance issues, if they simply seperated cyrodil as is, then no.

    This would also be good for ESO PvE players in terms of balancing, gearing, skills etc...

    Cyrodiil the only zone and no pve?

    Impact of this proposal.

    - no storyline
    - skill points reduced to about 100 maximum
    - no mages guild, fighters guild, etc You have your weapon skills, class skills and alliance war only
    - limited item sets and no set crafting stations
    - no housing
    - new character will suffer with a slow horse in a game that essentially requires a fast mount
    - no warden, no necromancer. those were introduced in updates that don't exist
    - good luck farming materials (but you won't need ore/wood/etc as there are no crafted sets)

    I'm sure there are more that I'm missing

    In this theoretical world where only Cyrodiil exists, the game would be wretched.

    Cyrodiil is not very fun, I find the area boring.
    PvP is a lot of fun especially when it's balanced numbers against each other.
    But if that is all there was to the game, I'd have been bored within the first month, like Overwatch...

    I would, but I think forcing that should have a new pvp system for alliance battle.

    You get an alliance outfit and if you wear it you are flagged for pvp as your alliance.

    If that works think of what types of outfits and pvp flags that could add.

    19% of the people do not realize how pay2win a sole PvP game would be.

    As a fan of the franchise, I'd spit on ESO if it were a mere ''kill players'' simulator.
