    I tried too. I really did. I got to the rambling about monster energy drink and almost quit, but decided maybe once it gets going it is good. So i skipped ahead. They were rambling about Oblivion. At this point it became clear why the video was 40 minutes long. Although now i am tempted to make a video entitled Why Review Videos Fail So Hard.

    Manofmisery, this is your second time where you post unnecessary stuff on the forums. If you have something against this game, then go play another game, shake your frustrations off somewhere else.

    Why is it unnecessary to make people stand up and take notice, the video makes alot of solid points. This game is clearly markted wrong and we can do something about it. Take a long hard look at this game and ask yourself is this what you wanted from an elder scrolls game? If the answer is yes there is a big chance you are a fanboy and there is no reasoning with that. If it's no then it's up to you to do something about it. I want this game to succeed but if it keeps going in this direction it will go free to play within a year.

    You make a lot of very good points here. The key among them, if you don't agree with me, you are stupid. I think you have a promising career in journalism ahead of you.

    The last thing any one would call me is a fanboy ;) and I accept this game as an elder scrolls game. Plus why was that a video? I don't want to watch two random guys talking at least show the game you are incorrectly bashing
    Tl;dr really weigh the fun you have in game vs the business practices you are supporting.

    And how exactly will a video of 2 british people trash-talking about ESO help improve this game? I'm not a fanboy of ES games, but I can tell you that this game feels like an ES game, also ESO is not 100% great, it definitely has it's flaws here and there. But it will change and things get fixed in due time.

    If you want to help improve this game, come up with great ideas to make this game better. Watching a video like this does not help IMO, also it's plain boring to watch them speak for 44 minutes. ;)

    The subscription model is totally new for mmo's no mmo that has a monthly fee has ever locked an entire race behind a pay wall and neither did they have a microtransaction at the launch of the game.

    Here's some great idea's to make the game better:

    Don't launch it in beta.

    Don't launch it with a dupe bug that you are aware of.

    Don't lock races behind pay walls.

    Don't give player's a big advantage at the launch of a game(horse).

    Don't focus on putting out new content when the old doesn't function properly.

    Don't take ages to fix skills and awknowledge that the skills are bugged and give an estimate when we can expect a fix.

    Don't mark a server as eu when it's located in the us.

    Don't promise an eu server located in the eu and then don't deliver.
