Really losing interest :( and I love this game

Recent · October 2019

@valkyrie93 ,
I love your idea op, I too would want this as it's easier to find one partner to do these challenging arenas as opposed to getting a whole group of people together at the right time that suits and who are willing to put in the effort. I can't believe how many ppl here on the forums police us as if we don't have a right to voice our opinions. They all sound like they just got off the same bus but only God knows where they all came from.

I also get that you mean a pve arena not pvp ...more an areana like DSA but for 2 players and with gold rewards so it would make it worth doing and would be motivating. The only issue I have with your idea is that I don't think zos would want to give away that many rewards such as pets, mounts etc if they can't see monetary profit from it that they can otherwise get from crates and the crown store. But yea i do like your idea very much i think it's very interesting and imo it would boost the game in a positive way.

I don't think it is theoretically possible to create a new content faster than players are getting bored. Especially taking in account that different players want different content. The only way to deal with it - as many people said above - take a break, check back in a few months or in a year.

I am in and out since day one, and I am pretty happy how stable the world is. I don't have to spend tons of time to catch up - pretty much no inflation, my old gear is good enough to be used. I might want to farm a new set to try it or to be on the edge - but I am not far behind.

I find myself taking breaks from this game more and more often. There will come a time when I’ll stop playing it completely I know. Then I’ll move on. It’s the Circle of Gaming.

I have played since beta and have lost interest in playing also--I find it harder and harder to just log in. Not happy with the direction they are taking the game and getting tired of game updates that constantly destroys all your hard past work. I think a break will be nice--maybe they will fix performance issues while I am away.

You know what I do when I start to lose interest in a game?

I move on to a different one. After a month or two, my interest is renewed. It's one of the reasons I'm glad monthly subscription models as a requirement to play are dying out.

Nobody said you have to stick with one and only one game and you must play it at least ten hours a day every day whether you like it or not. Well, unless you are on an e-sports team and you're getting paid to do it.

Only if you want to literally play the worst battle royal in the world, I mean literally.

It's not just you. Check out the population numbers the last 4.5 months. We're amidst the longest downward trend ever for the game.

You can also feel it in game. Much of it feels slowed down. Sales, guild participation etc. If I was a betting man, I would not put my money on ESO atm.

We will see a surge when the next patch comes out, but I wonder how long its going to last because it seems like its just more of the same. I think people might do the main quest chain, do Halloween then dip out again.

The problem is that ZoS caters to new players, burning them out with constant changes and predatory monetization once they have played a bit. Thus, old players leave constantly, and ZoS earns money from the influx of new, unaware players. The cicle continues and, as players don´t tend to stay for long, this numbers happen.

No, if you were a betting man, this is exactly when you would put your money on ESO.

Buy low, sell high.

You know what could save my interest in the game ?

If the Bosmer I created 5 years ago, for the purpose of being a stealthy thief / assassin, could be just that. With the many nerfs Nightblades have had that turned assassination skill line into a joke and the loss of Bosmer stealth, my main, most played, most advanced character is now meaningless and uninteresting to play.

Well done, ZOS. If you don't want my money, just say so, I'll spend it somewhere else.
