    I don't think Todd has played ESO.

    I'm not understanding your point.
    He is saying that there need to be better ways to access the game, any game, than what we currently have.

      I think he was snarking at ESO. Loading screens and linear storylines are major features of ESO.

      In ESO I saved the world... When my pet looked at the final boss and he melted before I could press my mouse.

      It wasn't designed to be tackled by an end-game level character (or, I imagine, even just a CP level character) and I'm so totally fine with that.
      I'm only CP390 and I haven't gotten to that fight yet (I'm taking my time; I'm only a couple of quests away at this point, though), but when I do, I'll just be glad it's finally over. I hate Molag Bal.

        Todd needs to get moving on TES VI. Get it together, Todd. We're looking at over 10 years between the TES single-player installments.

        Todd, we're sorry. We didn't mean it. We misjudged you.

        Isn't Tood Howard the executive at Bethesda Game Studios?

        If he is, he probably has nothing to do with ESO, even in hierarchy.

        But you probably just wanted to joke anyway, so nevermind, hehe.

        I saved the world, too. Or at least I thought I did. Turned out the sacrifice to defeat Molag Bal was a sham. ZOS was trolling us all along. Like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown.

        I was waiting for Sai and Lyris to tell me their quests were all a joke, too..... but they played it with a straight face. Can't wait to see how I'll be disappointed with next year's quests.

        I think I was VR1 or VR2 the only time I fought Molag Bal, and it wasn't difficult then(didn't die), I can't even imagine it at 810 CP
