Toxic positivity.. one of ESO’s biggest downfalls never good for a game or for the loyal player base to ignore critical feedback and only cater to casuals. Your right they only like “YES” people on the stream team, I think most of us as content creaters who make vids about this game are actively looking for other games to play it’s sad, great video!

I find it funny and telling that no ESO employees visit on the XBOX platform and ask for input from players. I don't expect that to change.

The 10 year here still wasnt as bad as Destinys lol.

Hope you’ve been well man. ESO leadership has slowly been ruining one of the best games of all time 🥲😩

Quit ESO and never looked back. There are so many other good games to play. For those who still hope and cope in ESO, stop giving your time and money, they are milking you!

From my limited programming knowledge the problem should be proc sets which trigger very often. If it is once every 6 seconds that should be ok, at least fron what I understand. But of course this damage heal set will probably trigger like 4 times per second.

Wow you have changed name... I have been away for a long time since I quit eso a long time ago.

We’re through the looking glass on this one

"Let the snake oil flow". These big words that were dropped by someone that has nothing to do with the coding and designing are so big that nothing will be able to be moved. MS started lashing their assets and everybody is still running on fire to sell the next "easy to make" crap aka dreams. People thought that MS will make the things better, but it is in the same state as before or even in a worse one. ESO will go COD and even more people will leave that thing rotting. Eff Bethesda, eff ZeniMax, eff MS.

im a casual player i would just wear whatver looks good and even i got bored with it i can literally just stand infront of a guy and he will never be able to kille me if i have an health regen they attack sooooooooo slow

Part of the reason we feel so sad about ESO is because we see how good it could be.

I played the full 10 years and I pretty much quit this year. Not a break- I am just tired of all the promises and hope and never getting the things we need in the game. Its just homogenization of the game and out of touch decisions. Year after year, I get hyped and let down and I'm so tired of the disappointment. One tamriel? Great! Card game no one asked for? Bad. The good decisions are so few and far between these days. I am not holding my breath for these promises. If they do deliver though I'll come back. AND it wont be their official channels I'll be watching to see if there's change.

My guild told me to join vyra, that shit is dog water!! I can’t even play the damn game because there’s so many ppl. Game is either choppy or game crashes RIP

At this point I assumed the chapters were basically a formality and excuse to keep giving their VAs work. There is zero passion. They need to hire an elder scrolls nerd to write for them.

Oakensoul is good in BG's

Devs have listened and then you all whined and cried and complained. Any game sucks when you play it everyday for 10 years.

I like the new 8 v 8 battlegrounds

One Tamriel killed the game. Zone based difficulty needs to come back.

They've also been sticking their hands in the DEI jar with Tamlorin

To everyone who's played this game since launch or high-school...... welcome to adulthood. Lol.

I've played like 4 years on pc. It's the only game I play. I've seen the quality of plat wear down and the resigning of old content and calling it new. I believe the players wiser than me saying this game is on its way to maintenance mode. It is a bummer. Hopefully they've got a game in the hopper that's awesome

I’m mostly into questing, housing and selling on the market board and even I’m worried. According to my guild mates, this is one of the worst market crashes (I suppose you could call it) that they’ve ever seen. So it’s even harder to save up for furnishing and mats. Plus I’ve been kind of drawing out zone quests/main quests because I’m worried that I’ll get bored and stuck once I’ve gone through every story. So even for casual players it’s been rough. 😭

Agreed. No1 >> Michael Jordan.

ESO switching to seasons just reenforces the idea that this game is heading to maintenance mode around the time of TES6 release. For 1 they only have so much space for large map exspansions which i feel is a reason they have been cutting content for the past 2 years and only having a single zone and now not even that. The changes they speak of are good on paper, making overworld content harder thats good, making more end game zones like craglorn cool, updating the visuals of the base game zones neat and new stories in old zones with continueing old ones as well nice. But as we can all guess ZoS is probably going to fuck it all up and i dont see a reason to come back snd i dont have faith they will actually pull this off. I quit before high isle i was already burning out and getting sick of everything ZoS was fumbling and everything i have seen from youtube or reddit has just been negative from people getting banned because of an AI and the devs still banning and removing anything they dont like on the forums.

I felt like the sudden focus on improving the content within The Crown store back around the time the pandemic started was out of the blue. You might call it a sudden stroke of creative genius, but my initial thoughts was that between the badass new crown store content and the new buy a chapter for the new overpowered mythic sales meta they created, That they probably saw writing on the wall, and decided to start cashing in. Everything since 2020 has felt like there, just milking the dairy cow. For every last drop, they can, and this letter right here feels like we're getting called out to pasture I genuinely am not looking at this from a cynical lens. I've always looked at it more from a business perspective, they've been bleeding a player base. They've been facing lots of backlash. They don't seem to have any clear direction of which way they're going to take the game or improve it, let alone fix player versus player performance. And I believe rather than throwing their head against the wall, for a solution, they decided to cash in. If it's true, they have another game, they're working on the past couple years could have literally just been them siphoning money out of the elder scrolls online player base to fund the new one

The performance is better during Midyear Mayhem because fights don't last as long due to there being a lot of noobs who die faster or are not as good at defending objectives. It is not related to the hardware. source: talked to devs about this in person

Surely they will live up to their promises this time and not somehow make it worse like they do it every time surely (I’m coping)

I commented elsewhere that it sounded like they were done with that game and got slammed. LMAOOOOOO

Im clean of eso 3,5 years now, i miss the game but the game before one tamriel. Sadly I can't get hooked again(I was a day1 player)

something that would make guilds more reliable is removing the guild traders from guilds

This game had to much potential man. Went from my fav gaming to just a big poop stain on some dirty underwear - because of the devs.

Quit ESO for FFXIV in 2019, never looked back. XIV has its flaws, but it’s a polished game that actually works.

The keys look so cool

So fucking dramatic over things we literally don't know enough to say anything about. The worst part of ESO in 2024 is the community.

So.....GTA6?

So....GTA6?

0:26 gonna suck when ESO is just fine and running well 6 months from now and your missing out on what ever boons content creators get. I really think the sharp reaction on a game that is a long term game, with the ups and downs from the start is futile when I’ve seen it get bad real bad by content creators complaining standards don’t get me wrong I complain too but I’ve come to a realization I hope you guys do as well. All of these games are the same, WOW all of em it’s the same meta program across the board. I play several of these MMOs and every community literally has the same exact complaints literally the same. I can easily find every type of video scaling from this patch or that expansion changed the game fore ever and this is the new era. I can show you a video on the same patch saying how it destroyed the game it’s dead and gone. Then next week they are all still playing the game and now those content creators opinions have swapped. This becomes nothing more than what the legacy media does lol. All I’m tryna say is switch it up bud take a break it’s not that bad your burnt out play another game but no reason to say the game or any game is dead and gone when it clearly is not, ESO alone has like 7 layers of dedication to it you choose to enable yourself including the subscription. You can literally dial your time back on eso and treat it like a model grand theft auto and still love it. I do that all the time. 😂 chill Brothah. If you go to WOW be warned same issues lol. I’ve been out there searching it’s all the same.❤

absolutely agree with you this is abysmal for people that have been playing this game for 10 years now there turning the it around or so they talk about change

On point in all ways, you pinpointed so much that i came up with throughout the years of playing, trying to figure out how this game was losing its stability in performance. All these calculations, all these synchronisations, they are too much to bear for a game, especially one with that age. The amount of times ive sent feedback, out of love, out of concern, out of support and nothing ever came out of it. I caught actual hackers doing the wackiest stuff just to see them getting a not even a ban, thats the moment when i started to understand the hackers (and i am not supporting any of it), but it tells a big story of management into the devs core essentials of the game. Its like a themepark, where you have to throw 2 dollars into a donkeys butt to get 1 ride of the rollercoaster, just to find out there is even more but you'd have to spent even more. Worst part is, it isnt about spending money, its about spending trust and a pack full of respect. Ive quit this year too and it felt so great. And since im basicly only an Elder Scrolls fanatic, it speaks books. Great video. It was too the point, honest and even tho loaded with criticisme, it was the healthy part of criticisme. Since there is no other way to take it into account without lying to yourself for the sake of hope and love. Have a good years end. Cheers!

Cry cry cry cry cry. PvPers are the most dramatic babies in literally every MMO that exists. Always calling for nerfs, always claiming the end is near, always saying they're going to quit, always crying about SOMETHING. ffs 😅 y'all are the most toxic bunch of players in gaming history.

ESO is milking the cow. You are the cow. I quit and moved to Guild Wars 2.

My dude says that PKers will just be cool and let RPers, crafters, etcetera walk away to "take a break." Whatever guild/server you were in must've been heaven. And all because you're bothered by discussions online about which server is better? Hope the player drop off is worth it.

I would like this not to be your last ESO video. It’s great to hear your perspective on the changes the devs make whether you’re currently playing or not.

You sitting down in front of a microphone talking about a video game while having a flu was by far much much more impressive than some dude playing a simple game while having a flu! Jordan who? That’s all I have to say.

Having to be an a server with Pirate Software, thank you for saving me $100 Steven!!

Great video No1! Happy I got to see your last ESO video :)

Love your excitement

I quit years ago because of how brain dead easy the PvE was, getting on Qs for dungeons made me understand why they did that, The Elders Scrolls is a boomer franchise, so a BIG portion of the player base is boomers with poor motor skills and reflexes and it wouldn't do to make the game harder

Really loving the idea you have with syndicate. How would one be apart of this guild or atleast be on a waiting list?

I feel guilty for dipping out, I wasn’t getting the pvp I wanted and got invited to play tank for a marvel rivals team. I’ll be around in phase 2 I’ll jump on the same server so I’m still pick up viable.
