16:00 shocker, you try to humanize them and they show you who they are by being themselves hahah nobody should be surprised

I havent really played eso in a while. Was Update 35 really so bad? It seems like a people left because of it and game became more empty player wise.

Got out of this toxic game years ago... Not worth the effort

Thanks!

It took you a long time. ESO could have been the best mmo ever. But the devs didnt live for it enough. I stopped more then a year ago. So i understand you completely.

About the Zhaitan fight, it's worth noting that the story instance where you fight Zhaitan used to be THE end-game dungeon. As in, it was actually quite hard at the time, and meant for multiple players. In order to get to it, you also had to fight your way through all of the Orr zones, which was quite the climactic undertaking. You had to push multiple dynamic events as a community basically, to battle your way to that final dungeon. So if it feels anti-climactic now, it's because they had to change that to make it doable as a solo player once the playerbase at large moved on to the expansion zones.

Thank you for your service bro its been a pleasure. Iv cancelled my subscription for eso+ today as i dont agree with how they treat people so fk them getting my monthly money and my £3k yearly sum on crown crates!! Wish you all the best mate in future endeavours 😎

Я играю в ESO с 2015 года, и сейчас не могу сдержать своего возмущения из-за того, во что превращается эта игра. После обновления 35 я просто не выдержала и ушла. Одни и те же события, которые повторяются из года в год, вызывают только скуку и раздражение. Раскрашенные под копирку маунты и питомцы больше не вызывают никакого желания играть - смотреть на это просто тошно. Как хилер, я чувствую абсолютное бессилие. С каждым обновлением наша роль становится всё менее значимой. Это разрушает баланс боёвки, которая когда-то была ключевым элементом игры. Но больше всего бесит тупость разработчиков, которые, похоже, вообще не играют в свою игру. Они ломают лор, уничтожают классы, портят механику скиллов и разрушают ту оригинальную логику, которая привлекла меня в ESO. Я искренне уважаю NefasQS, который не только вкладывал душу, но и мозги в полный разбор механики игры и боевой системы. Этот человек активно поддерживал сообщество и вдохновлял игроков. А что теперь? Он ушёл, как и десятки, если не сотни старых игроков. Закрываются гильдии, рушится коммьюнити. Недавно была распущена крупнейшая гильдия RAWR российского кластера. Это была огромная потеря для сообщества. Играть в эту "эпическую" игру больше не хочется. Когда я задумываюсь о том, что разработчики сделали с ней за последние годы, волосы встают дыбом. Для меня это равносильно насилию над беззащитным животным или изнасилованию того, кто не может дать отпор. И да, совсем недавно Viva La Dirt League выпустили новую серию роликов про Dev. Это же очевидный и очень толстый намёк на то, что стало с ESO. Эта игра больше не приносит радости. Она превратилась в пустую оболочку, полную платного мусора и лишённую души. ESO больше не та игра, в которую я влюбилась 9 лет назад.

You think the same problem might be related to Apple keyboard????? . I got this problem with space marine 2. Game when playing freezez completely !! Only solution is to RESET the computer ..couse it got NO response!! Its better when i got Limit my Fps to 60 ! But still happens … I got 4090 i7 14700 k and super fast SSD , so not my gpu. Also i Lower my refresh rate to 144 hz in Windows screen settings. Got HDR on. I use Native resolution in game on 4 k. Game is super smoothie and still… i got freeze completely ….( only lower fps to 60 help - limit ) Really dont know what it is couse i can genarate easily 120 fps in Game and have to limit fps to be some better but still doesnt fix the problem 100:/:. Also i on and off v sync in Game - i have g sync monitor - ( it is said that when you use g sync you should off the v sync in Game ) Still i think it is some related to the monitor and gpu Frame rate or refresh rate. Any idea ?😢

Heyyy. Im still doing the. First game. ,im at the stage of getting my powers. ,,,,,, so is it possible. We can switch over to the new game. Then swap. Back later. ??????

Honestly, had they worked out how to make the dungeons and POIs more procedurally generated (I am thinking like the dungeons in Daggerfall, built in parts and connected that way... Then having that many planets might have been cool.

Heyyyy do we still have our same. Companions with us in our ship. ,, 😊😊😊😊

Godspeed, Nefas. ESO is a sinking ship; better things surely await out there. 🙂

i just can't over the white nationalist thing.....i'd believe it but you never know if its muslim immigrants .... its getting insane .....and all we worry about is DEI

That woke crap of "black samurai" not worth to play it, the game will be destroyed by most of gamers

Dude has an Elder Scroll right behind him! Don’t let pvp’ers know this! He should fortify his house!

Having a small lore team should help. If you don’t have others that can cover when time is needed off, for vaca/sick/family, that’s when things actually ”come to a halt”. Plus it opens up availability for collaboration with designers etc.

I can tell you why Betheda sucks now. They take no risks in their stories any more. Their characters and stories... there are places they cannot go, and it's been that way since Skyrim, and it's only gotten worse. So they have all this dark lore, but it's not really explored. Todd fired all the risk takers post Morrowind, and that was almost 20 years ago and all that lore was from back then. Now their personal politics are in play especially now that they are with Microsoft (a totally politically infected company), which further prevents them from exploring difficult topics. We'd never see a character like Therana who hates men or Divayth Fyr who cloned himself some wives... err "daughters." All this other stuff, the bureaucracy, that's just a part of a organization growing larger. If they move to Unreal Engine, it means Bethesda is truly dead because it will mean that they don't even care to train their employees any more and I say this as someone that has used both engines for 20 years.

ESO and Zenimax/Bethesda don't deserve you.

Emil Pagliarulo is and was an overconfident hack.

my main concern with the lore and the lore teams idea is that all of the little stories will come out neat but the bigger story threads and beats might be overlooked and/or retconned. the numidium, whats left of lorkhans heart true heart? are we ever going to find the dark heart of lorkhan submerged under the ocean? the whole meta story of creation being seen as a trap by one side, but as a test and a trial by the others, the psijic endeavor and all that. im just afraid that some of the bigger ideas are gonna be ignored for tight little in city stories.

Buzzy, this showed up on my KZbin recommendations. Cool reaction video to my interview Thanks for the support NefasQS, another Bethesda interview drops tomorrow

Every time I go back to a game like Skyrim (typically because I need a break from an MMO) I realize just how inadequate it actually was/is on every level without mods. Just a random thought in the first ~10 mins or so of watching. Another issue that came to mind when hearing words like "play testing" and "player feedback" is how ZOS is yet again, in year 11 of ESO, using the entire community to test for them in PvP. A statement was made in the most recent "Live" that they would've rather done so on the PTS, but that not enough players use the PTS. I couldn't help but chuckle as one of the main reasons I didn't bother with the PTS in ~5 years was that player feedback was largely ignored. I know that MMO =/= Single Player... But, I believe the overarching theme is simply poor management and contempt for anyone who dissents in any way.

Why do these people in charge of folks who know what they are doing claim otherwise and pretend to know better, boss them around and make them leave, and then when something flops hard and more people are leaving, they act all surprised like they have no idea what went wrong? Or to put it simply - why everyone wants to be EA, these past few years?

Heard this somewhere, not sure where. “People don’t quit jobs. People quit managers.” I don’t think that’s ALWAYS true, but it’s true A LOT.

Guarantee the Elder Scrolls VI will flop and be nothing what we expected. Its been a pattern with bethesda and Elder Scrolls VI will be the straw that broke the camels back

I have lost all confidence in Bethesda Game Studios; Todd Howard is a con man. The success of Skyrim and Fallout 3 were just well-timed flukes based on the then current on offer video games, where there was nothing like Skyrim and Fallout 3. The modding community is the only reason we got rereleases of Skyrim and Fallout 4 and why Skyrim remained relevant for the last 14 years. Today, both games in their respective vanilla formats are beyond rough and they, somehow, have regressed in their design philosophy, or lack thereof, their quality assurance and their relationship with the market for their current products. I don't even want TES VI at this point.

he even get a new haircut, nefas war mode...Evil nefas lol

Why are you even doing the interview? You declared yourself to be moving on from ESO but still I hear you talking about the game and developers. Be free NefasQS. Spread the wings and fly!

did you see gina putting mike down hard on stream about having covid then telling hiom to clean his teeth after stream?? how the fk does this still happen in this day and age?

Another great video! Thanks for sharing this, I love this kinda content!

I love it . NES means business. Heel yea . Expose these clowns

As a dev, I get what he was saying at the start is you got to push yourself to grow.

You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.

Saying you won’t be able to get opportunities with other companies is ABSURD! Wtf is wrong with them they act like NPC’s more than real people

The games DOA and so is Ubisoft

Damn bro I just saw the part at 28:49 that’s so low and lame on her and their part. That’s so wack

You’re a real one and a legend in the community bro you’re a very influential, important, kind, cool, caring person bro. A decent human being who actually cares about his community friends game work and in everything you do etc. And this game has been part of my life for 10 years and I’ve never spent this much time or money on a game in general. I love this game but it’s sad to see what’s happening not to mention what’s probably going on back doors

Damn bro sad to see you and ESOU etc go. I understand you’ve been one of the main people in the community and have done a lot for them, content etc.

Bethesda supposedly has all these emeployees yet farmed out Starfield to 23 different studios and then wondered why people think the game is a disjointed mess of systems.

I saw the whole interview. Shen said he redid A Taste of Death after Emil's criticism, so we don't know what it originally looked like before that.

I really miss that game, was happy to play for 10 years but nobody is playing now and it's hot garbage at its current state, so I moved to Wow.

Just stop with UE5, lots of games feels generic and run like shit cause of it.

i respect you Nefas o7

I remember that neverknowsbest guy coming to bat for Emil and in turns out people were right to criticize him about his ego and his bullying to make it his way or the high way what a narcissist

I relate to what he was sayin about identity, I’ve been feeling that lately in my own career/life😢

Dirty laundry time...

second?

first?
