left before summerset dropped. thinking of playing again.
most interested in crafting+goldmaking, questing, roleplaying
...and healing.

it'd be quite tedious to go through all the patch notes, got a couple questions:

how's the healer meta?
what's the best city to do writs in now?
have there been major changes in addons used?
is minion still the premier addon program we use?
what about sites, what sites do we use these days?
how has the economy changed over the last two years?
how has the meta changed over the last two years?
have there been any significant changes to game systems?
have there been any significant changes to how we build toons?
can we f@#^$ hide non-combat pets already?
how ya doin, how's eso been doin'?

    We are back to the skillless proc meta
    Jewellery crafting has been added to the game
    Lag is worse than ever
    We have the overpowered necromancer class
    Devs still do exactly the opposite from what players ask for (on the pts forums)

    Devs wasted our precious time doing vDSA and vMA, now filthy casuals can get our hard earned weapons from normal mode.
    Devs are trying to blame the poor performance of Cyrodiil on the community and implying illogical fixes that will dumb down combat.

    have there been major changes in addons used?
    Some add-ons have been integrated in-game. Guild Traders are a lot better with the search function now. But you will still want add-ons.
    how has the economy changed over the last two years?
    It fluctuates, but if you're market-savvy, it's still definitely lucrative
    how has the meta changed over the last two years?
    This requires a longer answer but basically, newer sets, while still CP160 are more powerful, but the sets you have now will still do its purpose be it for tanking, dps, or healing.
    have there been any significant changes to game systems?
    The changes to some major and minor buffs (and more upcoming changes to this system) are quite significant, but generally, you'll still be okay for PVE.
    have there been any significant changes to how we build toons?
    Do you mean leveling toons? Not really. Still good old questing or grinding. If you meant theorycrafting characters, then definitely it has changed because of combat changes. But again, you will generally be okay for PVE.
    can we f@#^$ hide non-combat pets already?
    Nope. Also, sorc matriarchs still block you when you're fixing your outfit.
    how ya doin, how's eso been doin'?
    Taking a break from ESO, not playing hardcore anymore but still playing. Cyrodiil lag sucks.

    Hmm someone has a superiority complex? The content your mentioning isn’t necessarily difficult it’s just boring and Grundy once you’ve learned mechanics. The argument that just because you had to suffer through grinding the same content for hours and new player should too is a weak argument.

    There was this time in an update recently where DOTs were signifcantly buffed, despite PTS feedback that it was too strong. So next update, DOTs are nerfed into the ground and costs doubled at the same time. Then the next patch the costs were reduced again. A lot has changed since Summerset, but most changes have been reverted or doubled-down on, depending on the season 🤪

    ah yes, let me just shift through two years' worth of crown store nonsense, repeating events, and other irrelevant marketing...)))
    thanks i can find the news page on my own, and i know that being on an mmo forum, wanting to play an mmo game, one would assume i have the time to actually shift through the news & not interact with the community,
    but you'd be wrong to assume that! i only have nonsenical time for lengthly replies!
