ROFLMAO you do realize that ESO was considered one of the ABSOLUTE WORST MMO’s out when it launched.
And it remains the same.
OP, can I have your stuff?
If they ever work out cyrodiil lag I’ll play eso again in a heartbeat
Good luck with that one been how many years and it is still the same or worse?
Trust me ESO doesn’t CARE about pvp

ESOs launch wasn’t sunshine and rainbows and Cyrodiil is still broken.

Good look, tried the same (back to ESO) and other things (Elyon, Albion, Neverwinter) but I can’t drop this game for more than 1-2 days… Even tho I actually cannot really play right now (Firestaff/Ice Gauntlet), I keep myself dropping any other game just to return to NW ^^
It’s frustrating cuz this game has so much potential and gives me so good vibes playing it (even if the quests are repetitive), but the bugs and exploits just make me look for something else every couple of days…
Started 1 1/2 Weeks after launch, have been sick a week (not playing) thus I haven’t even reached endgame yet but ohhman…
I just wish there’d be a fix for the major bugs and exploits soon followed by either a wipe or new servers to just restart allover and give the game a completly new try…
Thinking about going back to Lineage2… (Classic) which I have played 10+ years back in the days… just for a couple of weeks… but that games dead (aside from couple freeshards) and not up2date technically atall xD
I personally am not a big fan of battlegrounds, although the deathmatch game mode can be pretty fun.
Performance wise, in my limited experience, battlegrounds has performed better than cyrodil.
I’m really not a negative person at all, quite positive actually. I was there at ESO launch(others have already posted what a bad launch that was), and they really turned it around and established themself as a good mmo game. I am hoping for the same in this game.
I’ll give you one example though, of what I mean by neglect for pvp …the Undo skill, and its morphs. That skill has been bugged since Summerset released…a skill that aligns perfectly with my playstyle, a skill I really love the concept of. When did summerset come out? 2018? That’s how long it’s been broken. Why? It’s pretty much a pvp skill…if it was Warhorn, or another popular pve skill, it would have been fixed in 2018.
Let me repeat that again, a skill that released in 2018, broken since 2018 … Its on the official “known bugs” list. …
It’s just one of many examples.

I could maybe deal with the crappy ESO combat but I can’t handle 90% of every expansion being focused on content that reads like a visual novel because openworld difficulty is so ridiculously easy.

ESO has many issues and will only get worse while New World will improve.
Brian wheeler wrecked eso and will continue to make the game even worse: More oped procs, more ptw mythics, more bad balance changes.
He STILL thinks his dot meta was an AMAZING SUCCESS.
Seems like he’s stopped balancing classes and is welcoming passive/proc set combat.
Good luck. Game is trash now.
Oof… That does make me a bit sad. Also, they changed battlegrounds to a solo only queue I think because people were complaining about premades, they did eventually add a solo and group queue later but the fact that they changed something that was untouched ever since the beginning made me a bit uncomfortable… There’s that and also the fact that there will never be ranked matches most likely
Idk. I would like world pvp if its not a zergfest, but it always ends up being like that, so I always stick to bgs
I hope that new world will continue to improve but I cant possibly play it in its current state, so I personally need to find something to play in the meantime
Well ESO is ESO. Amazing armor skins. Huge map. Enjoy.
Just about every mmo has the same repetitive quests. The flavor text is what makes the unique.

I wish ESO’s combat had substance. It just feels like your swinging wet noodles while jumping on the moon. Everything about ESO is amazing but its combat. I can’t believe they hadn’t done a rework by now.
LOL in the same boat as you, tried ESO again and found it clunky and visualy washed out compared to NW. I know the npc and quests are better, but…
This basically reflects how I feel. I know the development team is not trying to be malice filled or intentionally deterimental…the problem is work ethic. Gaming companies no longer have this double overtime blood, sweat and tears type of mentality when it comes to the games they produce or manage.
Instead people stick to 30 hour work weeks and value their time off over quality and anyone who brings this up will get burned at the stake for mentioning it. It’s not exactly laziness, its a combination of a lack of passion with light working conditions that create the very slow progress towards the problems that exist. I’m not saying there has to be 120 hour sweatshops running, a team can be hard working without having trash conditions. But maybe the times have changed.
Add this into the heavy amounts of pressure from players about gameplay, bugs, issues, transfer problems, exploits, critical game breaks and population issues all funneled through all social media valves at the same time all day everyday…and the team cannot deal with it. To be fair, its difficult for anyone to deal with it.
Which leads me to wonder…
where’s the talent?
where’s the work ethic?
where’s the humility?
where’s the empathy?
where’s the fortitude?
These are things that are very important that I feel are weaknesses in AGS at this moment. The core of this game is excellent and groundbreaking, the team just isn’t invested enough or takes enough care of this…to make an impact fast enough.
He was gonna give you all his gold, but he can’t trade it right now.
I played ESO on launch and it was the most horrible piece of garbage that I ever played.
NW seens flawlessly compared to ESO.
guys dont be suckers , ask for REFUND , we all “officialy” passed our hours in here regarding steam , but they might refund if enough of us pressure and show to steam how they deliverd to us unfinished product who is clearly not ready with this bugs and exploits.
To be fair, ESO was hot garbage when it released.
But ESO recovered as they had devs who fixed the issues. Time will tell of NW can recover as well the devs need to get in gear and dole out bug fixes on the reg.
