Back in the day I used to love this game. But over time my love grew into resentment. Bugs that plagued us years ago still linger, despite being vocal about it. One of the worst is getting stuck in combat and not being able to mount or even quit the game.Each new expansion/zone feels no different from the last. There's just nothing ground breaking. Look at other MMOs like WoW - they added the dragonriding mechanic, letting you take to the skies in a whole different way. ESO will never have anything like this, not while they are using the old Hero engine. Hell, I was walking along the coastline today and bumped into an invisible barrier. I hate this in games. With WoW, if you see it, you can go there. ESO has the opposite philosophy. Mountains and invisible walls are deliberately put in place to make you travel around the long way. It's just so frustrating.Performance is abysmal. A few years ago I could run this game on Ultra High settings with everything turned up, but with each passing update I've needed to lower it. Right now I can barely play on the lowest settings, with everything turned off (shadows, grass, textures at their lowest, particles at their lowest). I was getting 24 fps in town.Their support, I wouldn't even bother. You'll continue getting automatic responses until you ask to speak to a human, and even then they don't seem to understand your question to the point where you just close it with your query unanswered.I can't in good faith recommend this game, even if I did enjoy myself at one time. It's just a front for their absurdly overpriced Crown store.There seems to be no QA testing. A majority of the major bugs are discovered by the players. A particular set has been one shotting players in PvP. ZOS are aware of it and said they have a fix, but it will take 2 weeks before they will apply it. That's two weeks of players exploiting a broken set, but they didn't mind performing unexpected maintenance in the middle of the day to fix a bug that didn't even break gameplay.I could go on for days regarding the shortcomings of ESO and its creators (ZOS), but I think you get the idea.
