    Back in my day, I was scared of Dire Wolves.

    Now a backhand or 2 makes them dissapear.
    That's it, that's all.

    Oh, if only that was still the case. I got bored one night and decided to level up DW on a magsorc. When hard-casting frags, she put both of her swords in an 'X' on her back, and it looked very cool.

    Dk was the class with ranged immunity instead of sorc.
    Templar was more than jabs and didnt get nerfed to make warden look better.
    No semi spammables that hit as hard as dawnbringer.
    Barely any proc sets.
    Cyro worked.
    vDSA and vMA were actually hard.

    Sincerity is expressing oneself without concealing ones thoughts.
    Honor is keeping ones word.

    Back in my day, a werewolf bite gave a ‘hidden’ ~25% movement speed buff (or something like that), and putting points in stamina affected your movement speed, too! My poor, little, Bosmer died from falling so many times due to running lightning fast, leaping obstacles, only to find a cliff behind them...

    Back in my day to level by grinding you had to follow a certain path and move to different locations as you leveled higher.

    Back in my day, you had to walk to the dungeon (up hill, both ways) and the only Group Finder involved the people loitering outside the front door.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Earn it.

    Back in my day;

    Soloing anything in Craglorn was a miracle.

    Craglorn was a [snip], if people were not at the same stage in the quest, you couldn't help them or join.

    People complained so much about losing 2 skill points to Sheogorath.

    There were veteran levels (the reason why dungeons are separated into normal and veteran).

    DKs were the absolute king and unless you played Magicka, you sucked (Elder Staves Online/Elder Sorcs Online)

    There were no Addons.

    We had loyalty rewards for being subscribed.

    Remembered another one

    Back in my day, overland scaled to your level with colours indicating the level of danger. Ah! It's was so good adventuring in orange/red areas...

    Also... Craglorn wasn't a walk in the park
    I am the very model of a scientist Salarian, I've studied species Turian, Asari, and Batarian.
    I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).

    Yes, remember her, but the clanfear in the mage guild quest was worse, only managed to kill it because it fell into the pit.
    Yes as level 10 she was an nightmare, also people tried to group for her. However as VR1 in coldharbor the harvesters was not an problem.

    Now my weirdest experience from early ESO was going back and doing the early public dungeon for skillpoints, Was VR1, entered Toothmaul Gully, got wiped very well here at level 10, now bosses died in the AoE.
    Getting adoring fans, create an zerg, left invite and kicking the one leaving to some farming and tell them to pass this duty on to other then they leave.
    Returned 6-8 hour later and got an invite, probably into the zerg I created.

    it was another game except Cyrodil was unbalanced but diffident, vampires was tanky bombers.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.
