What has caused you to quit the game or barely play any more? What would bring you back?

The Paladin in Diablo 4 is so much more fun to play than Templar right now

I love its Jab animation, maybe ESO can use it as inspiration.

I love those godly light ray tendrils that whip out and crucify enemies, so satisfying!

Fun is a factor...and it's sorely lacking in ESO...I want to go on an adventure instead you just grind dalies and grind through phoned in quests

I just don't have the heart to play much these days.

This I think is the essence of what is currently wrong with ESO, the FOMO stuff. When you log in nowadays you do the daily endeavours, the daily pursuits, the daily quests, the daily event, the daily dungeon.... then you notice your playtime is done while still not having done the part(s) of ESO that makes the game fun for you, and so you log off. Realizing you didn't have fun, but were 'forced' into the daily chore list.

ESO should be about free-roaming, adventure, discovery, rewards, the fun! Being able to play the parts of the game which we enjoy most, instead of having to go around and do what the daily lists orders from us.

PS: Personally I am at CP 3600, and doing anything in-game now feels like a waste of my time as I do not get exp anymore. Even though I still play a lot!

Right now, I log in just to grab my daily reward and do some Infinite Archive as I’m saving up my fortunes. Then I log off. The whole process takes about 40 mins to an hour.

Normally, I’d be doing quests and going on an adventure! But with the lack of Overland/questing difficulty slider, it’s hard for me to be immersed in any story, no matter how great it is. So I’m just waiting for ZOS to add that feature into the game.

I used to be an endgame raider. Constant combat changes that destroyed my progress, extreme RNG grind, and long standing bugs made raiding exhausting. Also, the raiding pop declined, so I quit raiding and became a PvPer. Constant combat changes that deleted my progress, extreme RNG grind, long standing bugs, and lag made PvPing exhausting. Also, the PvP pop declined, so I quit PvPing and became a trader and a casual. ESO was actually fun again for a bit as a casual and I figured this could be my casual game, but constant unwanted changes, extreme RNG grind, long standing bugs, and lag made that exhausting, so I quit that and became a former ESO player.

I logged in a few months ago after months of not playing, and my character was at a survey harvest point. I noped back out and haven't been back since bc that was just a reminder of the sheer amount of tedium involved in playing ESO. I don't know what would make me come back to play again, but I still check the forums from time to time to see if things are getting better, but it doesn't look like it.
