    The overland is so boring. Especially compared to Abah’s Landing. I understand it’s a full on desert wilderness but they could have done a lot more with the environment.

    My 2nd option would have been Clockwork City. Can’t stand dwemer shiz

    When I saw "ESO best zone competition" thread I immediately voted for my favourite out of the ones given. I'm pretty sure many people here did the same and the results will not be reliable anymore ^^

    As for the least favourite, I'd say Alik'r.

    Malabad Tor is pretty, but is such a pain in the ass to traverse. By far the worst zone to do surveys in.

    I was torn between Shadowfen, Malabal Tor and Alik'r. All are kinda boring and uninspired and the first two are a pain to navigate. I spent most of the time between those three in Shadowfen so I vote for this one to be fair.

    To field a few concerns that have come up in this thread:

    a) I fixed the thread title for those who have issues/problems looking at words in the opening post.

    b) No, I'm not going to redo this fight because of the people who have issues/problems looking at words. Some people may have a problem with this due to their personal issues/problems looking at words, but hopefully they will surpass such issues/problems, ***since the NEXT FOUR FIGHTS are following the same format, as I also said in the opening post.***

    c) Words are our friends, especially the bolded, italicized, underlined, asterisked ones. They generally carry important information!

    I have a suggestion.
    Since those zones are obviously not all zones in game, how about, instead of round 1,2,3 etc. to:
    - Worst EP zone
    - Worst AD zone
    - Worst DC zone
    - Worst DLC zone
    - Worst zone (finals)

    Also, the title is very misleading, becosue it highly suggest to vote for the BEST zone, not the worst one. And the "***IMPORTANT: VOTE FOR THE ZONE WHICH YOU THINK SUCKS THE MOST***" looks like a wound plastered with duct tape...

    And don't forget those bloodsucking plants at ever corner, oddly placed wayshrines, PD which you either swim to or go around the map after jumping from cliff...Anywhere you want to go is a nightmare on this map.

    Surprised that Malabal Tor is so high on the list. It is one of my favourite zones because it feels like you are in a real dense jungle, a lot of the zones don't feel like they are real (Alik'r and Clockwork City when I take a look at this list).

    This, the zone is so boring, you can't feel like an adventurer there. I don't care about easy navigation in Alik'r, different terrains have different pros and cons.

    I just don't like the whole fabrications/robot thing in a 'medieval-ish'(?) rpg (I know it's lore, but it doesn't mean i have to like it)
    The look and feel of that place made it just torture for me to go through that whole quest line.

    Oh my god thank you, finally I found a comment that addresses this- seriously, which one is it op? Is it worst or best? Because from what I’m reading, the title is completely different from the actual post.

    And imo, the huge wall of: ***IMPORTANT: VOTE FOR THE ZONE WHICH YOU THINK SUCKS THE MOST*** doesn’t help when the title reads B E S T.

    Seriously? C'mon guys, this isn't rocket science.

    The title has "best" in the name because this round is a part of the overall competition, which is the Best Zone Competition.

    As stated in the OP, there were an odd number of zones that didn't lend themselves to an easy bracket, so to start out, the first couple of fights are weeding out the zones people think are the worst. Which is why these first few fights I'm have people vote for the worst.

    Again, words are friends.

    I just don't like the textures for the vegetation it looks a bit fake or dated. Newer zones with jungles like Murkmire are a lot better.

    Not voting in this one, and have concerns about the reliability of the results. Yes, it's true "people can't read/follow instructions", "topic is confusing", etcetera etcetera. Just not sure why the poll was set up this way. I understand what you're doing, but why not let people vote for their favorite (the topic is "Best") and then just drop the one with the fewest votes?

    EDIT: Just realized I'm taking what should be a fun thing way too seriously. Was just thinking about simplifying for the user that skips dialog like it's an ESO quest and just gets on with what they think they're supposed to do. Carry on. And props to @Saucy_Jack for even doing these fun polls.
