    Two things.

    First: why they refuse add more housing items in game? Especially what people request.

    Second: why some random old sets get buffed to be better than veteran dlc trial sets?

    I don’t quite get light attack weaving, I have tried for years (1255 CP), watched guides, read builds, had people explain it to me like I’m 5 for all to no avail. In the shallow end of the dream pool :(

    ok fine some serious ones:
    Meta chasers.
    I find winning in pvp on said builds....ehhh...boring.
    I find such builds boring full stop. where is the theme? where is the flare?
    This current meta that has sprung up since last year has gotten to me the most. because its almost forced. you cant run half of the off-meta builds anymore because of the popularity of the current meta. its boring,and pvp becomes stale as a result.

    What bugs me is why Bosmers are not stealthy.

    Or rather they were stealthy, become un-stealthy, and then later on they somehow become stealthy again.

    Ah yes, an optimistic meme from the early days of the protest. I think at this point Bosmer won't get their stealth back before we have a new combat team. The sad reality of it and the worst part is that we still don't know the why, making it truly "something in ESO I don't quite get".

    They get their racial passives back when argonians shift sliiiiightly towards the meta again. its sort of a bundle deal.

    All MMO means is multiple people are playing the game at the same time. There is no expectation or requirement that they need to play together in groups.

    That being said, there is plenty of content for grouping. It doesn't all have to be.

    I never understood having no children in game. Like none. Kind of creepy tbh. All these couples and absolutely no children in sight. Are they all locked in the basement of those houses we can't access? What about orphanages? I mean there is a war going on... you can't tell me there aren't orphans out there! It's just weird. At least in ES4 they made an attempt at it. Maybe with the up coming companions and *possible* romantic interests they'll finally solve this mystery of the children.

    Oh, I know this one! They've eaten a poor soul but couldn't manage to digest the staff and boots!

    I always assume my guy is cutting it from the monster's stomach and leave it at that.

    No, because you're (generic you) wanting it all to be turned into single player content, instead.

    And I guarantee if companions don't turn out to be the ez mode people are hoping they will be for dungeons (and trials) the forums will once again be full of threads wanting a single player story mode version of dungeons and trials.

    There's just as many people asking for single player story mode versions of group content as there is people asking for vet versions of overland content. 🤷

    No mystery, it is to avoid possible lawsuits, they will never be in game.

    I don't know, but in Skyrim they probably responded to the questions with the kids and I found them kind of ... weird.

    Hip flaps and groin/backside rags. So many styles have it, but why, what is so appealing on them? Some armor look nice, but when i see that rag hanging out , nevermind i just won't wear it. I don't think it's really practical to wear something like this. I just find it really funny . It took me quite some time to make outfit for my 14 characters without rags and flaps. Also some outfits you can find ,could look way better without them (Looking at you Dark Passions Regalia) .
    Better try something and fail , than don't do anything and not know the result.

    How heavy attacks restore resources instead of depleting them

    How on Earth you can change your race, e.g. Argonian to Bosmer

    Ah... so many things lol. My major "why??" point of pain with Zos is that there is no separation between pvp and pve balancing. I'm sure I could come up with a list, but that stands out to me as the most baffling decision, second only in my levels of personal grief to the lack of character slots.

    Why the devs don't invest into more PvP or PvX content. It's a huge and untapped market that they could easily expand into.

    the answer is two simple reasons

    1: PvP has a learning curve akin to a sheer cliff
    [snip]

    those two factors combined means that pvp isn't as popular as pve, and those that do partake with it typically are already "spent" as a result investing into pvp to any meaningful degree would be a bad idea from a business standpoint.

    Implementing PVE-Story within PVP heated Imperial City zone was and will remain the worse mistake ever that must not be repeated. It caused an influx of upset and frustration I never quite get why did they went that way. It never ends well when you have PVE-PVP Clash together. It has to be a separate zone and Cyrodil in entirety must be overhauled.
