What the hell is going on, first time in five years that I'm trying to login and face a login queue (currently 8:30 pm friday EU)? 8 minutes is actually enough to watch a series instead given the high amounts of time I get disconnected/ kicked when playing. Did the servers just come up?

They most likely re-allocated the premium servers they own to another Zenimax/Bethesda company service, or sold/rented them on to a 3rd party company for another game. Either way the service we have now especially on PC EU is not even close to the performance we had pre-January. Which is saying something because the service/performance prior wasn't fantastic either.
PC NA most likely haven't noticed because they only have to deal with the Japanese (JP) & Central/Southern America playerbase whereas PC EU has alot of the African/Oceanic/Asian playerbase + a larger playerbase in general.
TL;DR They are running the game on minimum resources to maximize cash & trying to flip it to market it as a positive.

You overestimate average gamer's IQ and lets be honest here - there is no other branch where you can completly disrespect your customer and get away with this like in gaming industry ;-)Kilnerdyne wrote: »It's just mind-boggling that they have any paying customers left at all. If the game didn't have the Elder Scrolls name in it it would have been dead as a dodo years ago due to the constant incompetence of the decisions made or not made.
