Would you like the option to play in a Solo Overland instance?
Solo/group instances for quests. It sucks doing a quest that you're immersed in/roleplaying through and some dude with his bright purple skin with a bather's towel on just runs past nuking everything. Really ruins the mood when you're actually into the game.
This is why I have EU characters. I get a mostly solo experience there since my playtime is 2-4 am in Europe. Granted knocking off world bosses or events is difficult, but there are very few others at that time
ESO doesn't have much in common with a single player TES game design-wise. But I agree that more quests should get solo instances, at least for the boss room.
What ESO sorely needs is an option to hide other players. Not having to render 50 glowing characters and their zoos would provide an instant performance boost in populated areas like cities and world bosses during events. Yes, there is a way to hide other players, I use it all the time, but it's not perfect.
