✭✭What does "AAA" mean?
Everyone probably has their own meaning but I have always looked at it like big name devs and big budget. Like a gigantic game basically with lots of money put into it.
In comparison I am going to guess ESO has a medium sized budget but this next one will have a lot more.
I could be WAY off on this but this is how it was explained to me.

That desire to play with friends in a TES game is where the housing community, the RP community and LOTS of money and support for this game comes from.
If you want to play "something else" go do it.
Many many many of us are here because of TES and would appreciate more (and more accurate) use of TES lore.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 Draconis2 -

✭✭What does "AAA" mean?AAA (pronounced and sometimes written Triple-A) is an informal classification used for video games produced and distributed by a mid-sized or major publisher, typically having higher development and marketing budgets."The Heritance are racists yes? Idiots. But dangerous, destabilizing racist idiots." - Razum-dar
"Wood Elves aren't made of wood, Sea Elves aren't made of water. M'aiq still wonders about High Elves" - M'aiq the Liar

You seem to be defensive when my statement has nothing to do with demeaning what this game is. I know full well why many play it. My comment still stands, there is more creative freedom in a brand new ip.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭TequilaFire Neither of those is being developed by ZOS. Starfield is being developed by Bethesda Softworks while Commander Keen is under development by id Software.
From the leaks back during 2018, this game whatever ZOS is developing for the last three years, was slated to be a live service MMO of a completely different IP.
Id software is original creator of commander keen series but ZoS took the mantle and announced their commander keen game in the middle 2019 as their new product they're working on.0 -

This, note that the current scale of updates are much lower than making the game, one and a half zone a year basically. Having both the chapter and dlc in the same region saves a lot since you can reuse lots of the content.If ZOS gave up on ESO why do they add QOL features? Why do they bother with Cyro performance tests and combat tweaks? They could just roll out some Smolder Scrolls-level quests and crown store shinies and fix only absolutely game-breaking bugs. No pettable dogs for you. No nice characters. No balancing attempts. No new activities or mechanics. Maintenance mode.
But I guess this is "sky is falling" thread, so... Gamer out.
Grinding just make you go in circles.
Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.0
