Console Vs Pc

I made the switch to PC a year ago and the difference is completely noticeable. Everytime I try and get back on ps4 to play the movement feels completely slower, my controller almost feels like it takes 1 or 2 seconds before my toon moves. And everything just seems in slow-mo yet I play on PC using a controller and it seems 10x faster. I seriously wish they considered or figured out on how we can just get our old accounts I understand that was already discussed and won't happen.

Stinkyremy✭✭✭✭✭Ironic as for me I started on PC eventually picked it up on console. My account name and the name of my toon is exactly the same on both though I didn't account swap to console at launch.
Disregarding my other alts it would probably no be an issue to swap my toon from console to PC as the account and name is the same so has not been able to be taken.
As for the slow down, the simple fact is that consoles are inferior hardware. A xbone/PS4 Is less powerful that a 2102 mid range PC which is what ESO was designed around. When I picked up a PS4 my PC outperformed it already. Obviously there is major hardware issues and with all the new content and crown cosmetic crap it makes the game run in toasterville.
These next gen consoles won't even be much of an improvement!0 -

What you described is not a game problem, it is a problem with your TV
Try to search for "Game Mode" in the settings so you can reduce input lag, modern TVs have this.2 -

✭For the smallest window in the history of the game - console might have the performance advantage, ATM. All of us plebs unite! Lol.

What advantage? It's miserable.
On topic, I moved to console from PC and I can say that was the worst gaming decision I made. I've recently logged back into my PC account and the grind is real (it's cp 510 that's when I left the game) but I think eventually I'll move back. It's a different game on PC altogether.
But for now, since this hopeless patch dropped and broke the game and the company's even worst handling of the disaster, I am holding on before I reinvest my time and money on PC.
I am actually on the lookout for some nice new games of similar nature so if anyone has any in mind, feel free to dm me, because I'm not sure if it'll be allowed on these forums. Companies tend to become stingy when they see they are at fault."Knee-jerk reactionist."

I will try and see if that is the case but I have never had that issue before.0 -
Mythreindeer✭✭✭✭✭Consoles are what you buy pre teens for Christmas. Real gaming is for PC.
Tragically our "real games" have all been dumbed down with resulting poor functionality due to adapting for consoles.
I am assuming ESO mobile will be next.1 -

✭Honestly, console is only good for training. People who've been playing for years on console with the lag and no addons that switched to pc make up many of the best engame players in the game. Letting us port our stuff to pc would bring a lot of "new" blood into the game.Xbox NA healer main
