It's still the same person doing it. They might not be capable of doing it on that particular character, but with the way combat changes so frequently, that could still be true even now.

1) people use and notice titles?

2) I thought achievements as a gauge of "can they do this hardmode" were already "useless" due to paid carry runs.

I've mixed feelings about it,on one hand it's cool on the other hand am a bit... Well I've alt characters for specific stuff to unlock, I don't need all DB achievements on my main character for example as I specifically have a character for it.

For account wide archivements just mark what character got it.

I am concerned that people will claim non meta completes weren't done on those characters. There will be mudslinging saying it wasn't x and x wasn't done in such such build

Could it not be optional?

Titles have been meaningless cosmetic fluff for a long time.

I'm happy about account wide titles, but then I've never cared about proving how many times I've done a particular thing. I use titles purely for thematic reasons - if they fit the character I use them, if not I don't. This will give me a lot more options for titles to use on each character, including things which are otherwise impractical like using Explorer on a new character who is just starting out.

I'm not sure about the achievements, I want to know how it will work first. If it's like the existing addon (which I can't remember the name of) that gives you the option to see achievements per-character or account-wide then that's fine, if it means all achievements you've completed are now shown on all characters that will take a bit more getting used to, because I'm used to seeing achievements as a record of what that character has done, and some I specifically don't want on certain characters (like the murderer achievement). But that could be avoided by having two lists - one account wide and one per character - or by showing which characters have completed it.

How?

I'm one person playing a game. If i unlock something, i want it to be UNLOCKED for me, not conditional. I don't want to have to go through and redo it over and over and over again for every character. How many times do i have to earn something before i've actually earned it?

Finally someone who understands it.
I don't get it why are some people mad about this. Haven't they played other MMOs? In other MMOs titles and achievements are also account-wide. It's like they would say that account-wide skins/pets/mounts are a bad thing "because you earned it with only 1 characters". Sheesh.

I'm personally happy about this update.

For the few people who have everything/most of everything... getting the titles/achievements on multiple toons is the main reason to continue playing.

It's fine for games that have different rewards for endgame, but when titles are pretty much all you get in ESO for endgame achievements, it ruins the fun/replayability for those that have it all.

Pretty sure ship have sailed on that one already. I also think titles should be character bound (but not achievement itself, just title attached). Won't bother me much though, would just quit replaying some content on some alts, that's it.

trust me when I say no one is impressed by your titles, except you

I'm thrilled with account wide achievements becoming a thing. It's huge.

Could they not make motifs account wide
