I agree with the OP about a couple of things. Mostly, I'm reading a player that needs to adjust to the differences, as many of the rest of us have.

What's broken for me are not necessarily the bugs and glitches - although my character consistently drops his quick slot potions and I have to put them back, and my ultimate resets to zero all the time for no reason.

What I'm twisted about most is lack of an auction house. I'm not sure where the money goes that's deducted from my sale "for guild," but I get the sense the guy that started the guild is getting it. And that's just dumb. But more importantly, there is a whole style of player getting left out because of this. There are days that I would log in just to walk the wilds for hours farming mats. Then put those mats up for sale. And then - this is the best part - logging in a day later to see how much I sold. What a feeling to find a full mail box! Not here. This system is completely fail, in every aspect, in my opinion.

Why not toggle nameplates? Who's it going to hurt?

The naming system. Holy cow, I can't stress enough what a fail this is. This is an MMO, where grouping and socializing are encouraged. And this ridiculous account name system is absolutely ruining it. No, I don't think I'm exaggerating. Many RPG players have a identity, created over years of playing, or writing, or art, or role playing, that is intricately tied to their character name. And Zeni has erased all of that in one feel swoop. Instead of Trog the Deadly, I'm Bob123. This is having a very negative impact for many players.

Why not toggle account names? Who's it going to hurt?

I'm staying. I have made friends, and have a guild to run. But I really think that, in an effort to not be an MMO clone, Zeni has dropped the ball on some things, and I hope that continued discussion in forums on these subjects ultimately reaches their ears.

Inventory Inventory Inventory.

I bought this game to play an elder scrolls MMO, not an inventory management simulator.

Group tools can use polishing. I should be able to go LFG for a lower level dungeon that I need to return to to complete a quest. Why was this not added to begin with?

Fing dismount times. Seriously, WTF. current dismount times are long enough a single person in PVP can kill me before I am even able to react. Why was this not balanced in beta? A group of 2-3 NPCs at my current level can down me before I can react. You shouldn't have to spec a tank to survive a dismount FFS.

Did I mention inventory? It's nice we get a robust crafting system. Too bad a single character can't do 2 professions without inventory issues. Create mules just for inventory space? *** poor workaround. Why was this not fixed in beta?

Fix those things and I'll enjoy playing for a long while. These are basic things that make the game frustrating. If I'm frustrated playing a game, I stop and pick up a game I actually enjoy. So far, This game is 90% there, but the inventory issue in and of itself is enough for me to say F it and play something else. Seriously, fix the broken inventory.

im staying but i want to see them fix Werewolves and Vampires

I don't think Im going to quit the game however my time in it will go down dramatically and that's because of the ridiculousness of forced questing and/or doing the usual Anchor/World Bosses/Delve running groups through each zone in the VR's. 1-50 you had options of how to progress. Whether it be via grinding on mobs in groups, solo grinding, questing, dungeons, cyrodiil, etc. You had options and never felt bored. Once I hit the VR's, I don't mind the amount of exp required to achieve the levels, I dislike the ways in how you go about getting xp in the veteran zones. You are literally forced to Quest or do the usual group run through as I said above and it has become EXTREMELY boring.

Grinding on mobs(for those of us who enjoy it sometimes) is practically non-existent. Mobs in the 30s and 40s were giving anywhere from 200-500 xp a kill. In the veteran zones, monsters are giving 42 xp. 42. Zenimax, you seriously need to do something about this ridiculous amount. I know theyre supposed to be more difficult to achieve the levels but 42 xp is flatout pathetic. I dont know.. I love the game, I dont however love the ways of being forced to quest if I want to achieve my lvls. And dont get me started on Alts... I currently have a VR6 character an a VR3 character. I absolutely dread having to do all the same stuff again.

Fanbois gonna Fanboi

Right. And some people have to label and criticize other people who don't agree with them.

This game needs massive improvements i think we can all agree on that.
I read alot of posts on diffrent forums and i tend to agree with many of them as they make solid points.
People making comments like "dont let the door hit you on the way out" well let me say this, ESO has not meet the target of box sales.
And every player leaving is bad and every player making a post about what needs improving is a step of making this game better.

With people thinking that the game is fine as it is, you dont have high standards and in this age and day people do not pay for unfinsihed products.
As ESO is a looooong way from being a good mmo.
Once the bulk of people leave, this mmo will reach a critical point of revenue and might be forced to go the route of every mmo that launched the last decade >>Free to Play<<
Only 3 sub games alive and kicking and over 20 mmo's launched with a sub went free to play.

In current state ESO is making players way to frustrated to keep paying and playing.
Once people hit the veteran contend they will unsub and might come back over time or play another mmo and never look back.

We have seen this in every major mmo that launched in recent years.
Warhammer / Aion / SWTOR / Rift / Secret World etc etc etc etc

Soon we can see ESO among those as the developers failed to produce a fiinished product and made the game way to shallow and frustrated to have fun.
Not to mention the horrible veteran grind that starts to wear on you after you reach Vet level 5.

Oh i also readed the new patch notes and still no skill / passive fixes / infinite loading screen / mass group crashes / respec reduction cost incase you picked the bugged skills and passives who do not work / the logout login that you need to do as passives bugs out if you die / Softcap sucking the fun out of min maxing / Veteran grinding to boring / gear decay to fast / gear repair cost to high / wortless quest rewards <----final quest in the game gives you a blue necklace :P great job hero ! here have a good one for all saving the world !

This is but a tip of the iceberg that is starting to anoy alot of people.
And thats not good for such a young mmo.

Its not all doom and fire tough as underneath all these problems lies a realy good mmo.
But in my opinion this mmo was not ready for a launch, not even close.
Many design decisions needs to be looked at asap.
Most of us know that if you launch an mmo and people get to frustrated they look for better pastures or other games that dont require you to pay for an open beta.
or make syou log out frustrated or losing the will to continue leveling.

For me it was a big lie what Matt Frior said:

Play the game how you want to play.

its a pure quest grinder with nothing in between to gain exp.

Wow was thinking i would see more of these with a lot of ppl leaving,
glad i was wrong.

That's because they have already left and wouldn't likely be posting here at this point. The one's posting are the ones staying.

there was an interview done, and if i remember correctly they did not expect people to blow through this game. most were in the 2-3 zone at the time of the interview but there was a hand full of "power gamers" he even released some online loged in times with no names. He said he sees some of these times being 14-17 hours a day and he thought "go out side and get some air!" they ARE working to add more content for Vet ranks and are also working to fix some of the game breaking bugs. They are even fiddling with the FoV and the chase camera. it is all in the dev discussion thread. For those of you who are leaving i advise you to come back in a few months and try it out again. Those of you stay i will see you in game.

You dont want to play ESO, you want to play WoW.

I hate it that there is no way to lock down the chase camera. This annoys me a lot. It has been my preference for over decade to be able to play this way.

This game should take the route of FF XIV - Beg forgiveness for releasing a shallow, average MMO and promise, and deliver, better when they release ESO:Reborn. For those that are not aware please wikipedia it. There is too much similarity for comfort.

Yes, this. This is the worst launch of a game I've ever played. I've been a fanboi all along, but I just can't anymore. Zenimax, you've broken my heart. This was Elder Scrolls. How could you?

It's like they got a chance to cover "Stairway to Heaven," and hired Miley Cyrus to do it. It's just plain wrong.
