    How much do i mind them? It depends on when they are used. Between zones ok. When i am in the middle of a battle with a dragon with 200 people as happened the last night of the last event, no thank you.

    They have improved for me but this is because i got a new pc, so they obviously have been shortened significantly.

    I don't really have issues with load screens. They're a few seconds, during which I either drink some coffee, let the dog out, whatever. *shrug*

    Too the point that I do very little but train 'horses' and check my mail and leave for another game

    They need to be gone from everything but needed changes of 'zone' and even those need to be cut to 1/100th there current length (as lets be fair for most it is the server 'hamster' that is holding things up)

    The worst game I've ever played for loading screens was the original Legacy of kain on ps1? (Ps2?)
    This is the second worst.

    I don't mind them in general, aside from those stupid cases of overly long loading screens when your going from one Wayshrine to another in the same zone, especially when running dolmens in the Alikir only to miss the entire dolmen due to the load screen only for it to happen over and over until you either re log or simply giving up and logging out for awhile.

    And were they better, worse, or the same for you in ESO during 2019?

    Anecdotally, Id tentatively say that load screens have got longer in 2019. But I doubt this is a significant deterioration, if any, and the load screens have always been on the long side. The running joke among my friends being "This may be a usually long load time"!

    With that said, ESO has a LOT to load, in comparison with many inferior MMOs. I personally do not mind a load screen, if beyond this the game is stable.

    Don't care if they're fast.
    Very frustrating otherwise.

    They serve the very important function of allowing for bathroom breaks, drinky breaks and small to medium nap times.

    I hate initial long loading screen, which leads to me not even launching the game, even though I need to feed horses.
    I hate spontaneous loading screens, when you're in the middle of combat or crossing the town, like Stormhaven. The rest are fine.
