    the longer it goes, the lower the prices you can get for selling festival items.


    IMHO

    I know what will be super entertaining for people gaming at home all day!

    Run 3 daily quests that take maybe 20 minutes all total...
    Hmm.

    (As someone who is in fact at home and able to game for a fair bit of the day, a lot of these requests for extra stuff during the quarantines/isolation come off as mildly opportunistic. Maybe its just me?)

    I'd rather not. There is no cream that can deal with the event burn at this point. Let me enjoy the down time so i can do what I want to do in game instead of having the events play for me.

    Maybe given the likelihood of significant extra demand anyway, they’re actually wise not to do something that might add even more demand.

    Maybe a week to see how effective and robust the system is under pressure is an entirely good thing.

    It’ll come soon enough anyway.

    I think maybe it would be wise for Zenimax to delay it, Given the amount of people that would be playing do to the Covid 19 and then those numbers shooting up even higher to do the jesters festival events. It might be wise for them to delay it till Early to Mid May or even June or run it alongside the anniversary event. .
    That way the game isn't overrun with to many overbearing calculations from all the combat and stuff people are doing and to many people on at once because of the event. Once the bulk of people get over the Covid 19 and things go back to more normal then the servers might be able to handle things a lot better.

    Actually i think that this would be a really good opportunity for ZoS to do some kind of event and perform a community service AND get really good publicity.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    It's a very nice idea, but anything that would require extra work on their part would probably be difficult right now. I'm sure the individual humans who work at Zenimax have more than enough to deal with.

    I actually like the quiet right now after the murkmire event. Giving me me some time to grind a lower level character. Not in any rush for another event.

    Relax.. it'll all be fine. The G.O.A.T dictator in the White House just found the miracle drug to cure the virus. Hey, he said so. The pandemic will be all over very shortly. So, no need to variance anything to the Jester festival.

    anniversary event is right after and anyways, this is going to be on for a least a month to two months were people are at home.

    i think they should offer something up. Many companies are.

    Personally, i am watching how companies are handling the situation. The companies that are hoarding their profits and acting selfish, i will stop supporting, the companies that are using their profits and resources to help those in needs in some way, or showing they are part of the community will be the ones that get my support.

    I think these threads need to be stopped now.

    The fact that people are using Covid-19 to try and get themselves benefits in some regards...

    Guys you need a reality check. Like seriously.

    Oh yeah.. this post will probably be locked sometime soon. I'm just here for the drama and bored. So, then.. and the reality is, people will do anything just to get something more for themselves over others; whether coercively, illegally or immorally. That is just plain reality check. We've been seeing that run amuck for the past four years with the White House. Haaa..

    No, please. Enough of the year is taken up by events as it is, we honestly don't need any of them starting early. Events also should only be extended if some core part of them isn't working, like drop rates or something, they shouldn't run longer just because people have some free time.

    A mini event would be nice...Something to get people to complete achievements or something they normally wouldn't do

    What is the official start date/duration? Its not intuitive to go to the help tab and get nothing but a general description of things as they were some years back and never in need of updating.

    Want to make it better? Loose the dragon in random towns or at least right outside the gate. No additional reward, just fun. Mad Jester must have blown the dragon horn again Ghaaaaa!
