For me it's been more of an attrition due to being jerked around by nerfs and skill adjustments. There have been too many combat changes that make little to no sense. Take for example AOE costs. While I'm glad they've come down 25%, U24 sent costs through the stratosphere...along with sustain issues that ensued. I mean, come on. What player anywhere in the universe enjoys sustain issues causing you to fight the combat system itself? ZOS seems to. And now the trashing of IceHeart? I just don't get it and am getting tired of feeling like I'm playing a game where the combat devs don't have a clue as to what players truly enjoy.

The sum effect is that it's just wearing away my enthusiasm.

As long as the ones who stopped playing were the toxic few, we're better off.

Yeah the ones expecting a functioning game are the toxic ones, not the ones insulting an entire portion of the player base.

mag regen bug is there too. its awful

The people who have "completely stopped playing" might not even bother to come here and vote, maybe?
The poll options are weird.

Just curious, I logged in on patch day, saw how horrible it was, and kinda gave up. Now I just come to check the forums and see that nothing has changed...anyone else in the same boat?

Quite apart from the fact that asking this on a game forum would never, ever give you anything that a approaches statistical representative result, the fact that this polls only have options for negative values of gameplay makes it worse than useless and goes straight to viciously misleading.
Way to go OP. I've seen a lot of bad attempts at statistics in my time on the internet, but you damn sure take a special prize with this.

Was going to vote, but its a loaded poll.

I have cut back. I was on hiatus for about 6 months, my main reason was performance in PVP (and yes, I am traditionally mostly a PVE player). I came back about a month before the update and found myself playing (mostly PVP) farily regularly.

After the update, my first thought was, wow this seems to be a big improvement. Frames were way up, and my first PVP expereince was as good as I can remember.... for about 30 minutes. Then the crashing started. I crashed 4 times the first night (about two hours), and have played to two crashes the next two nights. Made it about an hour on Tuesday and 15 minutes on Wednesday. Game stability seems to be deteriorating.

The other thing I have done is get my mDK all geared up in Elf Bane and took a stab at the new rotation. The difference in PVE performance on a target dummy has fallen noticeably as well in just 24 hours. Lots of weird rubberbanding and skills/light attacks failing to fire. I will probably keep logging in to get some event tickets, but I am going to avoid any serious playing for a week or two.

How about the fact that cyro is a ghost town for almost all factions and campaigns? Campaigns that normally would be pop locked across the board 8 hours a day minimum are now ghost towns. Keep in mind each campaign can hold 450 players.
