I think the passion and want to make a great game is there, the problem is the people with the passion are not the ones in control any more.There is unbalance between money - passion - service, times where games where made for players gone, games are on investor hands but not on creators ideas passion and at all gamers needs

I really hope ZOS is taking this seriously, because the EU problems this year have been shocking.I think the passion and want to make a great game is there, the problem is the people with the passion are not the ones in control any more.There is unbalance between money - passion - service, times where games where made for players gone, games are on investor hands but not on creators ideas passion and at all gamers needs

FYI: There are other games available. #justsaying

It just sucks that this is how the gaming industry works now.

I understand and share peoples frustrations with some issues the game has (especially the EU server issues) but I don't see how making snarky or sarcastic posts towards Gina, Jess, Rich or other ZOS staff is going to suddenly cause changes.
They're already doing their best to give us a great game and I can't image they enjoy seeing the horrible state it's in right now with regards to server performance. Also these are normal people, it's got to grate on you to go to work only to read abuse from the people on a daily basis.*
Their communication on issues could be a lot better, especially their seeming reluctance to talk about issues or acknowledge something until it reaches critical mass. However I personally (and no evidence) still feel this is the whole "marketing control" thing which Zenimax/Bethesda loves so much.
* Which once again is why I keep trying to encourage ZOS to adopt Paradox's anti-toxicity posting rules. The forums is a working environment for games developers and community staff, they shouldn't have to deal with abuse on them.
People should keep posting and keep being critical. However they should drop the snark and venom towards the people who don't deserve it.LiraTaurwen wrote: »Which is exactly why I don't rudely slam ZOS on the forums.LiraTaurwen wrote: »I do feel sorry for the devs, I imagine them having creative ideas and having all them shutt down because of money.

That just happens when people get frustrated, when people get ignored. Sadly the ones in charge will never suffer abuse or have to read mean and sarcastic comments.
Many people tried to make constructive discussions and went all unanswered so its normal people get angry.
It is a sad state of affairs indeed but sometimes people just don't know what else to do.
