Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

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

    No, not at all. In fact I'd prefer Cyrodiil was optionally PvP so I could explore the region without having to engage other players.

    I'm usually left alone if I'm clearly hauling ass solo to a PvE objective. One time I tried to suicide myself with a group of four enemy players fighting a couple other players from another alliance. Ignored me and consciously avoided hitting me despite me standing literally right in the middle of the fight. This was amusing. I jumped off a cliff in the end.

    Were you on a lowbie? I know people that try to not attack low level players if they are alone and not fighting back.

    Barely ever been to Cyrodiil and I've been around since closed beta.

    So, no.

    I can play both but prefer PvE 99%.

    ZoS, you just create item scroll set player faction to neutralize that can't kill from PvP so they can do PvE content as they want.

    The game was designed as a PvE game with a PvP zone so most came for the PvE. That is why the poll is showing as it is.

    Definite NO.

    I play the MMO because there is no new single player TOS game, and so I play it for the quests, the landscape, the NPC dialogue and stories. I hate PvP. I only ever set foot into Cyrodiil to do PvE quests, or when the event hits and I can run with others to grab the AP and TelVar stones to get the furniture I like (like the banners that need alliance ranks). Zero interest in the PvP part. Visited battlegrounds once, hated it, will never set foot in them again.
    For me it's a real shame that one of my favourite parts of Tamriel got reduced to a boring PvP chessboard that you can't even set foot in without risking being ganked by some PvP guy that doesn't know (or care) that you aren't there for the PvP show.

    And honestly ? TOS always was about having great atmosphere, nice stories, lots of quests. Wasting it on PvP, which has absolutely no use for all that, is a shame in my opinion.

    I like PvP and PvE. Both are a part of the game I love and that's the way I like it.

    Cyrodiil and PvP only....nah, sounds very dull. PvP can be fun for a time, but not all the time.
    We Fight For Cyrodiil.
    We fight for The Daggerfall Covenant.
    We fight for The Aldmeri Dominion.
    We fight for The Ebonheart Pact.
    We fight for Tamriel!

    I play the game for the story, the exploring, the collecting "stuff" thing and to improve my characters. Basically the reason most people play a MMO.
    I do play some PVP now and again for the hell of it, but if the game was only PVP I would not bother playing. Not unless they drastically improve the servers and fixed all the bugs and lag.

    I have only recently started PvP-ing again, back to my solo roots.

    It's still never really recovered from whatever happened when 'the lighting patch' went live. And given some stuff I have seen I would hazard a guess that CE players are alive and well and not being impacted much by whatever fixes ZoS claimed to have put out there.

    IC is so much less than it promised before launch and BGs suffer from a perennially flawed grouping tool.

    It's fun but would I pay to play a seriously laggy, possibly cheat ridden, bug fest of a zone all the time - not a chance.

    Even though I don't really do group stuff much in PvE any more I enjoy quests and just 'existing' in game. Without that side it's not even half a game to me.

    I'd probably think something like "Oh look, a new Elder Scrolls game. Such a pity it's PvP-only. It's almost criminal to waste an opportunity like this," and then I'd promptly forget about it forever. ;)

    Now, I would play in Cyrodiil assuming the performance issues were fixed. I enjoy the large scale combat as part of an organized raid.

    But if that's all the game had ever been, I never would have tried it.

    See, I was a PVE only player. I hated the thought of PVP, except I wanted those Master Angler fish. So I ventured into Cyrodiil,

    Becoming a PVPer to the point that I'd be fine with only playing Cyrodiil was a very gradual process with a steep learning curve. I'm confident in saying that it would not have happened if the game were Cyrodiil and Cyrodiil only.

    Nope. If I wanted to play a PvP or AvA only game I would play a first person shooter or something similar.

    I'll be happy if they ditch all PVE content so I can avoid all those dailies, achievements, motifs etc and concentrate on gameplay :D

    If this game was PvP only, it would have failed and servers shut down years ago.
