Maintenance for the week of October 27:
• [COMPLETE] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – October 30, 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC) - 6:00PM EDT (22:00 UTC)
I play ESO and other game(s): all have same importance to me.
The game that draws my attention really depends on my mood, what events are in the game at the time, and what I would like to be doing. I will go through stretches of playing ESO heavily, and stretches of playing other games more.
But I will say this- I have logged in every single day since I began playing in 2018, and haven't missed a day even if I just logged in quickly to get event tickets or do a task like endeavors. ESO is an MMO I can see myself playing well into the future, unlike other MMO's I have left because progression became impossible without dipping into the cash shop or because the devs did something to ruin the gameplay for me. ESO always has a ton of content to offer, and I haven't run out of things to do at all.
Legends never die
They're written down in eternity
But you'll never see the price it costs
The scars collected all their lives
When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
Legends never die
I played GW2, Eve, WoW (10yrs), LOTR and Rift before I discovered ESO. I lost interest in all the other MMO games after I started playing ESO. It's a relaxing game for me and the player base is a big plus. I do have other games I enjoy like the Half Life games using different kind of mods for example. I'm very busy, so I don't have the time for other MMO's right now. Been playing ESO for a few years and I have no plans leaving anytime soon.
I play ESO and other game(s): {X} is my main (optional: if you want, tell what game is your main in a reply).
I decided to just play ESO maybe one or two months a year. When Blackwood is added to ESO+, I will sub for one or two months and play through all the 2021 content. I really wasn't enjoying the day-to-day repetitive dailies. The events were taking up a lot of my time and I really didn't care about the rewards. I decided I don't want to play content that leverages FOMO.
Now I'm finally finishing up The Witcher 3 after 6 years. After that, I'll return to RDR2, which I really enjoyed when I started it, but only made it through the intro. I have a pretty deep backlog of single player content that I will focus on until I come back next year.
Some of the upcoming changes could keep me around a little longer. The skew of drops toward completing sets could get me to do something I have always refused to do--grind trial and dungeon sets. Since I main a tank, the ability to switch between tank and DPS builds at no cost will make the game much more enjoyable. Since I have around 45k crowns from past subbing (and no interest in cosmetics or housing), I will probably pick up some additional armory (or whatever it is called) slots for my main.
