Eso 2020 I have absolutely zero hope in this game given the last year of radical changes/persecution of classes and identity loss! I make polls with an overwhelming majority that agrees and zos locks them because its not in their interest to preserve a competitive pvp system for veterans :)

    Imho people come and go. At this point I prefer fresh new players than all those overpessimistic players that plagues this game with elitism and/or overdemanding behavior, full with nostalgia.
    I just gave up to have hope to changes/satisfy pvprs and endgame community.

    Future belong to casual gamers and now I'm ready to accept it.

    I can already hear the migration of whales coming in to buy the new crates. As long as they exist the game isn't going anywhere.

    Favorite Foods and Potions
    https://media.giphy.com/media/3otPoTggaYFNd1FdAI/giphy.gif
    • Parse Food for PvE:(DPS) Ghastly Eye Bowl (increases Max Magicka by 4592 and Magicka Recovery by 459 for 2 hours).
    • Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
    • Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
    • Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).

    No, it doesn't make sense. If you're that disappointed in ESO, then stop investing time in something you hate and go find something you like.

    I just find it funny that you say you have "absolutely no hope' when you actually do have hope.

    I don't play the game these days, I quit A while ago, So @starlizard70ub17_ESO it doesnt make sense for wow to re-release vanilla wow for their mmo as a popular business model to try to capitalize off of regaining original player population coming back? last time i checked it worked really well! I would argue your perspective of just move on and don't advocate for change is incorrect.

    Being hopeful and and being unrealistically optimistic about hope/which i'm not, are two separate things my man! I guarantee if you had as much time invested in this game as I do you would share a similar mindset, or hell even if you were good at this game in pvp terms, obviously you're not because you still play consume this garbage! :)@Danksta

    Our mindsets about the game are probably pretty similar actually. I'm not happy with the game, I log on to play with my friends and then log off. I just don't contradict myself. The game is trash, I have (very little) hope that they will turn it around. So do you otherwise you wouldn't be here "to advocate for healthy transformative changes to hopefully see A game that they could possibly play again!"
