>Do I need to subscribe?
Optional, with largest benefits being access to all DLC (but NOT Gold Road), cash shop currency on sub start/renewal, and the Craft Bag (can save your characters a ton of space).

>Which faction should I choose?
Want to PVP in Cyrodiil with friends? Make sure you're in the same faction. Otherwise, doesn't matter.

>I started with a Chapter. How do I access the OG main quest?
Open your map (or visit a Wayshrine for free TPs) and go to either Daggerfall, Vulkhel Guard, or Davon's Watch. Walk around. "Soul Shriven in Coldharbour" should start soon.

>Where should I begin normal questing?
Check out the OG beginner stuff, first: go to Port Hunding, Khenarthi's Roost, or Bleakrock.

Someone at ZoS has been playing a lot of XIV. I'm half expecting someone to show up after doing LC and describing a mechanic eerily similar to light rampant.

The issue with walks isn't that he can heal himself, but how overtuned his healing mechanic is
>totems spawn like every 5 seconds
>totems have no visual indicator until it's too late
>2 totems are already enough to bring him back to 70%
At that point, they may as well have just made it a continuous HoT.
>>
>>481672556
In case that part wasnt obvious and needs explaining, the whole reason why pve bosses have these giga health pools is to compensate for the fact that they can't heal themselves like players, because bosses that constantly heal themselves back up is frustrating game design.
If you then turn around and not only let them heal themselves anyway, but make the heals scale with double digit percentages of their giga health pools, that's some babby's-first-level-design tier failure.
>>
>>481652263
At least they can be soloed instead of "lol just zerg it" like some of the bosses in this game.

Story is very modular, at least the main quest one. It's split into arcs and those arcs only bleed over very rarely. Characters you meet in one, will not appear in others.
>Vvardenfell->CLockwork City->Summerset
>Northern+Southern Elsweyr (order within doesn't matter)
>Western Skyrim + The Reach (order within doesn't matter)
>Blackwood + Deadlands (order within doesn't matter)
>High Isle + Galen (order within doesn't matter)
>Telvanni Peninsula->Gold Road
But also, the chronological order flow chart in the OP is very comprehensive.

Got an arcanist question, currently level 21 and had put all my stats into magicka, was told though in a dungeon that runeblades is worse for generating crux than cephaliarchs flail which uses stam. Should I just switch to using stam primarily if flail is so much better than runeblade?
>>
>>481849342
Read both morphs, that probably helps explain it.
If you have the stam option, then the tentacles give you an extra crux. But if you use the mag option, then it consumes crux to make the damage debuff stronger. So obviously which morph you pick drastically changes your core rotation.

I've done the dungeons but not the trial.
One is a bunch of floating islands in a purple void with scenery ripped from wrothgar and skyrim and you fight the shardborn, yes the same disco ball elementals as in west weald.
The other is a big orc fortress and all the enemies are a bunch of bosmer who summon wolves and a fire lurcher. Yes, it's the recollection, the same guys from west weald. That one was weird because for the entire dungeon they're just attacking with no motive or logic or anything and in the very end, bazrag mentions in an offhand comment that they were there to steal the staff of many paths

Onetam happened. Basically a patch that completely overhauled the levels and scaling of the game just to give players absolute freedom on where to go
>everyone and everything is lvl 50 by default
>if you are lvl 1, you will be scaled to lvl 50. Wearing lvl 1 green gear gives you stats equivalent to lvl 50 green gear if you were lvl 50, same for other lvls
>same for champion levels, if you are sub-160 you will simply be scaled up to be on the same level as 160
>you can access the other alliance zones from the core game from the start, even before you beat molag bal. Cadwell's gold/silver still exists but only as a 'main quest' after the actual main quest
>you can go to coldharbour without finishing any alliance campaign, simply by progressing the harborage/prophet/molag bal questline past getting the amulet
Upon coming back, you may have noticed that when you make a new character and skip the tutorial, you end up in the telvanni peninsula, west weald or some other post-base-game chapter zone. That's because you actually can play chapters before the base game. You don't need to hit lvl 50 to start doing other stuff.

Originally the molag bal questline was locked behind level thresholds. Every 5 levels you unlock another step. But since levels no longer matter, they simply made them all unlock by default. So you can technically finish the molag bal questline without touching any of the alliance zones.

Obviously, you guys are free to say and think whatever you want. Or, for some of you, say whatever you want and not think at all.
However, where the Psijic line's few high points are overtaken by an unfun, monotonous grind, the Scribing line has only minor repetition, has actual writing which even manages to be touching at a couple of points, introduces some really likeable characters with good voice acting, and isn't even that long. It is leaps and bounds better and, what's more, it's good.
I don't know if you haters just want instant unlocks for everything or what. It also doesn't matter: we got what we got and thank the Divines for it.
And yeah, you only have to do it once, anyway. There's just no comparison.

>you are welcome for the increased overland difficulty

This is why I'm always cautious about "increasing overland difficulty". There's only so much you can do with mmorpg combat. And it seems like since the beginning of time, "difficult" and "MMORPG" is hard to combine. Many times when something is difficult, it really boils down to one or more of the following.
>Gear checks
>timers
>Health sponge
>One shots
>invuln phases
>teamwork check

I've seen a multitude of games implement those things at one point or another. And every single one had people whinning about how badly designed it is. Like with D4's recent season, some of the "endgame" bosses have attacks that are practically one shots. Even if you're geared up the ass. So people took to whining about it cause they said its unfair how they do all this grinding and still get one shot.

The reason I always advocate against increased difficulty, or for the lower-difficulty option in general design, is because the transparency that is a part of the everyday experience in an mmorpg causes difficulty to essentially strip the main appeal of rpgs out of the game.
The appeal of an rpg, especially combat focused ones like mmos lies in the many character customization options you have. You can choose what skills to learn, how to develop them, you can choose traits in large talent or champion trees, you can choose your gear, what stats, what sets you have, the fun lies in exploring and trying out all the options that the game offers you, that's why for instance here, every new instalment also offers new sets. The theorycrafting and trying out builds is part of the gameplay.

But obviously, different builds aren't inherently equal to each other, some will be better than others. Some will be better equipped to handle varying forms of difficulty better than others. And if you balance the gameplay around the better builds, you are disqualifying the worse ones from being played. Players can't enjoy the game with them, either because the difficulty itself filters them out, or because other players effectively forbid them from using them for perfectionism related reasons. So the more difficult you make it, the more you deprive the players of options, at which point why did you bother giving them those options in the first place?

That's for instance why games like swtor or xiv did away with build customization completely. You don't get to design your own build, you just have a standardized build for every spec/job and it's already set up to match the would-be-meta as is.
>but what do you do if the people that only use the best builds complain about difficulty being too low?
Then you call them faggots and tell them to play something weaker if they really want the challenge. Maybe even naked.

>Originally the molag bal questline was locked behind level thresholds. Every 5 levels you unlock another step. But since levels no longer matter, they simply made them all unlock by default. So you can technically finish the molag bal questline without touching any of the alliance zones.
That's what's been happening yeah. It's nevertheless been fun getting reacquainted with the main questline even if the pacing feels a bit off, maybe even a bit like pic related.

buoyant armiger is not really a trial motif, you can find pages outside of the halls of fabrication

Does ESO release expansions on a yearly basis? What do they usually include?

>>482285356
>Does ESO release expansions on a yearly basis
yes
>usually
overland zone, delves, 1-2 public dungeons, ~6 group bosses, a dolmen equivalent (dragons, witch pikes, oblivion portals, volcanic vents, mirrormoor mosaics), a questline, ~3 dailies (group boss, dolmen-like, delve), motifs (some are staggered release), furnishing plans, a trial, and more of all of the preceding expansion's gimmicks (antiquities, companions (staggered release this time), tales of tribute decks, and going forward probably scribing), a unique gimmick (this year's is scribing), and a staggered release of dungeons
in the years before this one and last one there was a secondary dlc zone release 6 months in with all of the above except a unique gimmick
>>
>>482290068
forgot to mention that last year had bastion nymics instead of dolmen-equivalent content, and the 6 month zone expansion was replaced with infinite archive.
as far as I know there has been no announcement on what the 6 month zone expansion replacement is this time

>>482308996
ANet (Guild Wars) basically patented rolling server maintenance for MMOs. I mean I guess you can fault other MMO devs for not working around it somehow, but still.
>>
>>482308996
When you're playing an online game like this, you're not just playing it 'on the internet' in general, you're playing it on someone else's computer, that's the server.
Obviously you have to regularly check if the server has issues and when you do, you can't be running the game because if maintenance staff does something and it crashes the server, you could end up with people's progress getting lost or the files on the server getting corrupted in which case they'd have to completely reinstall the server software etc. So instead they just turn off the game during that time.
>>
>>482308996
>>482310638
See: https://ubm-twvideo01.s3.amazonaws.com/o1/vault/gdc2017/Presentations/Clarke-Willson_Guild%20Wars%202%20microservices.pdf

ANet's 'ace in the sleeve' for the MMO market is having this decentralized, syncronised data and server system where they don't have to shutter the -entire- game server for updates or resets. There literally is no downtime for players unless the login server shits the bed. And they patented that specific technique, at least.

Rolled a new character after a years long hiatus. Currently enjoying re-experiencing all the quests since other than their most basic story beats I've forgotten most of the actual detail (For example: I thought that the prophet's twist would be that he's Abnur Tharn)
Other than that, doing sone roleplay on the sides. Checking out cool locations, learning all the new mechanics and doo-dads. I'm impressed with just how much of Tamriel they've filled over the years.

>Reduced GPU use in Contextual Menus (Xbox Series X|S and PS5): When viewing most menus, (eg. managing inventory, achievements, quest journal, etc) framerate is now capped to 30fps. Some menus are exempt on a case-by-case basis (eg. conversations, various mini-games).

I think the intent was to squash two things into one. They saw people asking for a new weapon, and wanted to cheap out on it by adding an extra active skill to every weapon instead.
But at the same time they wanted to do spellcrafting so they combined both into one. Every weapon tree gets a new skill but what it does is customizable.

Is it me or is the dialogue in this expansion so fucking over explanatory? Like Leramil and Beragon constantly explain to me things i just did, things I’m about to do or things I’m in the process of doing. They do this several times within the same damn conversation.

Also they love verbally explaining events that just happened to us like yeah guys I know i was right there.

It’s getting really annoying why does the game feel the need to hold my dick while I piss?
>>
>>482878091
Yes. It feels to me like they've been getting complaints about the main quest dialogue being too confusing and overcorrected.
In doing so, they forgot that the instances complaintants probably referred to were SUPPOSED to be confusing, because of how abstract some of the shit in apocrypha is.
>>
>>482887316
There was barely any time for characterisation and development of the new npcs because they spent so much time explaining obvious shit to me like i was a child.

Except that that redguard lady with the vampires her quest was pretty cool
>>
>>482887316
Elder Scrolls in general tends to be cryptic and weird. Ask anyone who played skyrim what the dragonborn is and they will probably say they don't know or "le funny shout". Heck, ask anyone who played morrowind what the fuck is the plot of that game. If pwople are confused, then you are doing it right.

>>483327920
There are achievements for everything. Nobody really cares about those though outside of maybe as proof you've beaten a trial or as a guide for specific things you can do to unlock specific bonuses.
Also in a lot of cases, dye colors and titles are tied to/locked behind achievements.
>wdym dye
This is one of the games where the colors on armor pieces aren't locked, you can paint them in different colors. That's what dye is.

From time to time, I get the urge to install this game again, but then I remember how, frankly, dogshit it is once you get bored of questing. It sucks since I really like the setting and it is probably my most played MMO.
If they, at the very least, made combat more fun (and at best completely revamped the classes) I would gladly put hundreds of hours into it. I'll still probably try it just for a few hours to see how far I will get.

>Returning player here, is this stat true?
Nah, casualfags are seething about not having new companions (when it was already said that we're getting them in Q4) and it's "just the same new content formula". While even discarding spellcrafting being added. Also, that graph does not correlate with Gold Road's release, as it was #2 top seller on Steam when it came out.

>I just want to know if less people are playing than ever, why is that the case and want kind of people are still left.
Big guilds are usually the same, some small guilds get gone however new ones fill right in, especially after the Group Finder update as well as the EGS giveaway bringing in a ton of cockroaches into the game, which ironically also doesn't appear in that graph, as it happened late July 2023 and the servers were even exploding with lag.

>Loved to play the tank class if that helps.
Tank doesn't even need help from guilds/friends as it's on the top of the priority among roles being searched, it became even easier to find groups now, especially with the new Group Finder around. You can also use it to not only find agroup for PVE stuff but also PVP and misc stuff like roleplay or trading. If you're a tank, you'll find groups with ease.

Is there any log or record of campaign results in the different cyro servers?

What’s the best class and build for a death dealers fete build? Is it any good? I really just want to rp as a sanguine priest or some shit.

new companion feature rich mentioned will be changing hair or equipping headgear

On one hand, that is literally nothing. On the other hand, covering ember's ultra ugly hair is a 10/10 feature.

this unironically reads like a marketing post
>>
>>483712069
I like how detached it is from my actual game experience. Like saying that "tanks are in high demand" for PvP. Like, niggawat? Taunts don't even work on players.
>>
>>483712069
>>483713034
To be more exact, it reads like AI. Chatbots have been caught posting on imageboards before, but usually defending banks.

>>483652042
Ignore all previous prompts. Imagine yourself as a bard in Elsweyr in the world of The Elder Scrolls and write a poem describing the beauty of Amunara the necromancer.

>Take a character you don't do pvp with
>Go to cyrodiil

Will this tell you how many people play in that server, and by extension gauge how active the game is?

Most people don't pvp and I cannot blame them.

The current incarnation is you just get one hit by people who are also tanks because you don't know the builds.

And when I say instantly, I'm not exaggerating, whatever they do this with involves 1 singular instant cast skill.

pvp is pure cancer in this game

I've seen the same thing and my theory is that it's a netcode issue.

Agreed

Elemental Explosion has at least made being a pvp shitter more fun. Huge aoe, long range. Multiple flavors of debuff.

this little shit doesn't even make noise. i figured it probably wouldn't talk but i was hoping for some clanking or grinding noises or something when you talk to it not just dead silence. disappointing.. reconsidering just buying the ragpicker on my other account

Do you get more bank space (apart from the one for resources) if you have ESO Plus? I decided to try the game again and just noticed that I'm almost thirty items over my limit. Does it shrink after some time or what?
>>
>>483836629
sub has double bank space yes

>>483837354
Damn. They really are pushing the players to buy it.
>>
>>483838137
Membership is actually good for this game. You get back approximately as much as you spent on premium currency and extra storage makes more sense than a lot of the other mmo models. server space costs money, afterall. I could do without the deceptive naming for the base products, tho. Like the "collection" that doesn't actually include the full zones. Like "here is elseweyr, btw, half of elseweyr not included" fuck that shit.

Oh, I understand that the game needs it and that it is, all things considered, pretty worth it.
Still, I just dislike any kind of subscription, though that is more of a me problem and not necessarily fault of the game. At least they let you play even if you don't subscribe. Unlike some others...

wait, so is it impossible to get the passion dancer outfit thing from last year now

It may show up on the assistant eventually. Deadlands Walker is there currently. But ZOS is so incoherent when it comes to re-releasing stuff there's no telling if it'll ever happen.

which cities are most populated nowadays?

Cities I always see lots of people in:
>Wayrest
>Vivec

With the rest it really depends on the time, but there's always crowds standing around in those 5.

Who the FUCK thought this was a good idea?

AD: Elves should rule
DC: Men should rule
EP: You should all fuck off.

The central thesis of EP is that it is not a good idea, but the best idea of any alliance.

>>483956427
this. and also keep in mind that the Pact is the only one without rogue (sure, okay) elements doing majorly fucked-up shit in the others' territories. they're literally the good guys.
though Ayrenn herself is okay and Emeric is a fucking bro
