Dark Convergence ruined this game's potential imo. I played this game religiously through thick and thin times since 2015, primarily PvP. Despite the many setbacks others have had with changes made over the years, I never minded really minded myself. I definitely had frustrations at times but I ultimately still made the best of them and had fun. I'm nowhere near being one of the great PvPers but I can handle losing and still have fun, so this isn't just a salty post. So many fun memories in PvP - wins and epic losses! But everything changed for me when dark convergence came out.
Whole fun fights just get sucked into it and decimated with a few ultimates. What used to be a fun PvP experience with drawn-out, adrenalin-pumping combat is now, for me at least, completely contingent on whether that set is around or not. When dark convergence is around, there is no fun battle flow anymore - you're just pulled out of combat so frequently and frankly, pulled out of the in-game world experience that takes you away from your real-world troubles.
I've taken several breaks from eso since dark convergence's arrival hoping to come back to it being nerfed or removed. I came for the PvP so I can only stay distracted by PvE content for so long. Now that I'm realizing this set is here to stay, I'm honestly thinking this just isn't the game for me anymore. I'm sure it's dramatic - all over one set. It just ruins the whole experience for me and I'm really that disappointed in the kind of PvP play it has led to - what it was before and what it is now.
