Has ZOS abandoned ESO Live?

ZOS did not host an ESO Live show on Twitch at all during the month of February. The only show during January was the High Isle Global Reveal. I believe there was only one show during December - the always entertaining holiday cooking show.

ZOS religiously hosted these shows every two weeks for several years but now it seems the shows are facing retirement. The shows were always a good way for ZOD to communicate and interact with the community, not to mention the freebies you could earn for watching or by winning a giveaway during the show. Alas.

Has ZOS delegated these shows to ESO Stream Team members? Is there some sort of communications lockdown as even Rich has stopped streaming? Has ZOS forsaken the game's players and fans?

    No big loss, the February ESO Live is usually the ESO Valentine's Day twitter-orientated rubbish which was cancelled this year, thank Dibella.

    No one is working in the office atm, they are still working from home.
    I'm sure that has a LOT to do with it. Trying to set up a long distance, at home live show is probably lot harder than having a studio down the hall and eveyone together.
    But, I DO miss how the ESO LIves were at launch. Informative, promoted guild events, dev discussions, Loremasters segments, Q&A's.
    Those I do miss.... :(

    If anything it should be easier considering the audio or something else wasn't working 9/10 times they were in the studio

    Well, given that currently mask mandates and social distancing has been lifted in most places... I see no reason why they cannot start holding ESO Live again. Considering how the state of the game (all the problems that have crept up) during the pandemic... I'd say the 'work from home' hasn't been as successful as they like us to believe. There is something to be said from person-to-person direct coordination instead of trying to coordinate something from a distance.

    It's not just because of the pandemic period. The game has been rocky for a while now and anyone who has played for over 5 years can vouch for this.

    Either way and regarding the livestreams/engagement, that is in the past now. Things were different before and we are now slowly withdrawing from what used to be.

    Well, I've played since 2015 and don't recall it being this bad before 2020... quirks here and there sure, but seems over the past two years, since about the time the pandemic started, things have gotten worse.
