unless i'm missing something the cost to get all the shit now is $230 per year, $140 eso+ & $90 for premium battlepasses per year (1 freebie battlepass per 12 month period)

some of the stuff they're announcing sounds pretty good if they can stick the landing (personally pretty interested in the night market stuff), but it's undeniable that this game is consistently one of the most expensive mmos, which is a hard sell compared to it's competitors and to most video games in general.

Glad they're working on base game stuff instead of churning out a new zone. I would rather new zones be spaced longer apart, but they work on more updates to everything else in between. Dragonknight changes seem cool and I'm looking forward to the rest, and hope some sort of buff to pure classes shows up. I personally think subclassing was a disaster in both mechanics and flavor, so it's nice they are actually making changes, whether that takes the form of pure class buffs or some sort of additional restriction on subclassing we have yet to see.

All in all, seems like good stuff. I'm happy.

I didn't quite follow the part about eso+. I tend to subscribe on and off often throughout the year since I like supporting the game, it seems like zones and stories will all be free moving forward, and subscribing mostly just gets you various small gameplay things and extra rewards like the battlepass. I'm not a huge fan of battlepasses on principle, but they're doing the more relaxed version where it lasts 3+ months, if you buy it then you have no time limit at all, and it's just weekly missions of things you're doing anyway to complete it rather than specific things, so that's the way to do it if you are going to do a battlepass at least. In general, this seems ok relative to most battle passes. Replacing login rewards and event tickets is certainly a nice part of it that everyone will like, at the least.

Good stuff.

We want to remove the barriers to new content we’ve had in the past, and now all ESO players can enjoy all of Tamriel’s new features at no cost and at the same time, together.

they explicitly say the new shit will be mostly free so why are you all acting like it's not? I hate this general so much, you will complain no matter what

worth it during sale, often at $10 or less

Also this year, starting April 2nd, they will add 4 key DLCs (Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood, Orsinium and Imperial City) to the base game. These give you the full worth of playing the game.

So we went from full chapters featuring entire new zones, with actual effort put into them and new assets. With a full story, side quests, and usually a new gameplay mechanic like scribing, jewlery crafting, or entire new classes.

To the season of the worm garbage for the same price, without actual new gameplay but well, at least it's a new "zone" even if it's 99% reused assets and it had a FUCKING GARBAGE timed event.

To now not even having new stories, or zones or anything, just a battle pass, QOL and "timed events" like his new fargrave "Night market" shit?

I only got into this game because i wanted to explore Tamriel and see Elder Scroll related stories. Not to grind for Fortnite emotes and "INSTALL THE GAME DURING THESE 7 WEEKSOR YOU'LL NEVER EVER GET TO SEE THIS STORYLINE!".
I already hate Diablo 4 for doing this shit with event seasons completly locking players who don't want FOMO shit to reinstall and play just to not miss out on the story or new gameplay features, and they put this garbage here?

Seems the only good thing ESO was for is for me to meet my boyfriend. Guess i'll have to convince him to move to Final Fantasy 14 with me.

Nobody but whales are gonna buy it, that's not the point. Entire 2026 will have no new content, and since the game will keep dying and failing there's 0 change of 2027 having a return to chapters and zone stories.

2025 should have showed them what a horrible idea seasons are and they doubled down.
>>
I'm thinking its fucked. Not because "BP bad". The content model they're attempting COULD work well with a competent team, the problem is that ZOS has repeatedly proven incompetence. They're a D team that barely knows their own game and only lucked into keeping their jobs because they weren't good enough for Firor's doomed pet project, these updates likely won't be good enough or fast enough to maintain players much less gain them.

I'd love to be wrong, but I'm expecting EOS or actual maintenance mode within 2 years.

I just feel like ESO is going to learn the lesson GW2 learned the hard way, and thats that you need big expansions to keep people coming back. Go too long without expansions and you just stagnate and eventually die.

Not to defend z*s but it’s hard to do big expansions when you have basically no budget and a skeleton crew of staff after cuts

Honestly I don't have many complaints about 2026. This game needs a lot of work to bring it closer to modern standards (it was outdated when it launched lol). We've all seen people say they got filtered by the floaty and piss easy combat within an hour of starting the game. Those things NEED to be fixed if ESO is to have any hope of lasting another 20 years. That and crossplay/progression. Lots of console players jumped ship to PC and dropped the game because they don't want to start over.
I wouldn't mind ZOS taking off multiple years from making new story/zones to focus on those things. In the meantime they can make easy money selling Naryu/Darien/Raz/etc companions and houseguests in battlepasses (they do that in Fallout 76)

They are absolutely doing the right thing taking a season off from making a new world space to instead focus on fundamentals. They're upgrading animations, combat feel, class identity, and they even said they're addressing the multiclassing fiasco. Literally every single thing they said regarding base gameplay is good and I'm more than happy to take a season off from new zones for them to shore up areas of the game that need some love. Absolutely correct for them to do.

I'm not keen on "battle passes" but they're doing it the way where there's a free track and you have unlimited time to complete it if you buy it, which are two check marks for doing them the right way if you're doing them at all, so at least there's that. And judging by some of the comments I'm reading here and on twitch/etc, I think people also forget that they're a business that needs to make money. If they don't post profits, Zenimax shuts them down. It won't be fast, but it'll happen. So I'm happy to buy a battlepass or subscribe here and there throughout the year to support the game. It's actually really nice that ESO goes on sale for like 5 bucks regularly and it's really nice that all future story content will be free, so how exactly do you expect them make money otherwise? Everything they said is completely reasonable, and free2play players do not seem like they're getting shafted, the opposite in fact. They want tons of free to ply players trying the game and trying the new zones etc, because every free to play player is a potential customer in the future.

I've been playing this game for over a decade and I'm so glad to have a season where the devs can focus on fundamentals instead of churning out a new zone. Best news in years. I feel like the negativity around this is honestly by people who don't understand the reason for it. It's a good thing.
>>
>>2176720
It's neither good nor bad, it's their job. I don't buy the idea they are selling us that it's new content, they are just undoing or fixing errors of their own making. Whether it's good or not, well we'll have to wait and play but for that to happen a lot of players are taking a biiiig break because all those changes will make it into the game after at least three months.

Their word, including their announcements, mean nothing, they destroyed every single bit of credibility they had as a company.

>it’s hard to do big expansions when you have basically no budget and a skeleton crew of staff after cuts

Strange. Indie games manage to do that and so much more. Yet Zenimax can't even be bothered to do things like their old small zones like Thieves Guild, Dark Brotherhood,Orsinium and Murkmire?

Nobody is demanding more chapters after Gold Road when their studio is closing, but going from "Ok we'll do seasons like this Solstice shit" to "Timed zone events! if you don't play for 7 weeks this small place in fargrave will NEVER BE ACCESIBLE AGAIN! PLEASE PLAY AND BUY OUR BATTLEPASS GOY" is just shitty behavior.

Fire all women, hire men, and the game can stay afloat even with a 5 USD and a pack of peanuts budget.

>Fuck off, the poison aspect is the only interesting thing about the class.

Stam DK having fucking puke green magic instead of actual fire and dragon themed stuff was always trash dude what are you talking about?

People don't pick the DRAGON fantasy to puke on people, we want fire. I had to play my Nord as magicka DK because i don't want to fucking PUKE GREEN, i want to SPIT FIRE.

Improving the fundamentals is a very good thing, but I'm not convinced this is "taking a season off". Are we supposed to believe that updating some abilities, making two new werewolf models, and cobbling together a few seasonal minigames is equivalent to the work of making a full chapter? This is the kind of shit other games bundle into patches alongside expansions, you don't see WoW freezing expansion development for multiple years when they need to rebalance classes.

They're trying to spin this as a choice but all signs point the studio being a crippled shell that simply can't do chapters anymore. We're looking at a two year content drought followed by what will probably be more Solstice-tier garbage unless they go on a hiring spree to undo Blackbird's damage.

the only dk skill I use is flames of oblivion and that's just for the passive. all the other ones look and/or feel pathetic

Every PVPer and PVEer said this.
Not to mention that many ESO streamers quitted for the exact same reason, always wanting to fix the game instead of releasing new half-baked content to break it even further.

I recall Fengrush quitting for "ZOS refusing to fix the game".
>>
>>2178277
ZOS won't fix read remake from ground up combat with or without new zones/
>>
>>2176720
Yeah and it's exactly what a lot of people have been asking for.

The game is not fucking fixed because now you can hide legs and chests. The list of "QoL" are the most meaningless shit nobody will fucking notice. Ohhh wooow now your horsey and research will go faster? BITCH UNLESS YOU STARTED TODAY WHO CARES YOU ALREADY HAVE A MAX LEVEL CRAFTER

An actual new zone and actual new story to make it worthwile to open this shitty game would have been interesting.
I don't know who's gonna see "woooahhh a battlepass AND now DK looks more anime and firey red!?!? i will tots come back to the game!".

My boyfriend got banned for 3 days and was threatend to have ESO "report him to the government" because he said "nigga" in whisper chat to me while we were roleplaying as redguards.

AI bans are so retarded

ESO will never be "fixed" until ZOS reworks the combat from the ground up.
I personally doesn't have any issues with ESO's combat but no matter where you look that is always the top 1 reason people refuse to try or quit early on.
>>
>>2179894
It look retarded, it feels retarded and it amounts to busywork. I am honestly not sure how they even managed to fuck it up so much because i played much, much more barebones alt tab combat mmos for hundreds of hours and it didn't annoy me nearly as much. My best attempt at pushing through was arcanist that did tentacle flail x2 into laser beam.

>Reported to the authorities for saying nigga
You must be European, I doubt the USA reaches these levels of dumbfaggery
>>
>>2179894
I just want the attacks to have some oomph. lightning staff heavy attack is one of the few satisfying attacks and they made it worse by nerfing the damage distribution. pvpfags ruin everything
>>
>>2179894
I think they're already halfway there with class reworks and buffing overland, they just need to bite the bullet and kill animation cancelling. Fuck "muh high APM", that stupid exploit-turned-mechanic makes the combat look terrible no matter how many animation reworks they do and effectively nerfs skills across the board to compensate for the expected free damage. The prevalence of HA builds and beams shows that most people would rather avoid it given the option.
>>
>>2179749
You gotta be lying because I type the most heinous stuff in whispers to my friend daily and none of us have been banned.
They did AI autobans a year ago but a ton of normies and RPers got banned and they scaled it down hard.
>>
It's true, I've been filling my partner's cloaca with the frothiest ropes of House Dres cum for weeks and neither of us have heard a peep from moderation.
>>
>>2180199
I agree
PVP retards should be hanging from trees
>>
>>2179894
ESO combat was redeemed in 2023 when they dropped the retarded spamming and thumping and flailing in favor of lasers.

They should make a new class that has a different channeled ability in every skill line. And streamlines the tedious buff/debuff upkeep limbo since no one wants to play support.
>>
>Upcoming changes
Is ESO worth coming back to now, or should I wait a few months for the changes. I'm a F2P Scumbag who got made when the Oakensoul(?) ring is locked behind paid DLC.
>>
>>2180386
Can you get the Oakensoul ring during a free ESO+ week?
>>
>>2180386
the expansion with the antiquities system will be made free later this year
>>
disgusting things i am reading here.
>>
>>2180386
No. Wait until April 2nd. There is literally nothing to do right now.
>>
>>2180397
>>2180403
You can but aren't there only 2/3 of these a year? I have the expansion that gives the skill line, but the Oakensoul lead is in another paid chapter
>>
>>2180397
Yes. That’s how I got it. Farming boxes in murkmire sucked though.
>>2180403
At least one lead is always hidden behind some dlc dungeon/zone.

GOD FUCKING DAMN IT

I fucking told my boyfriend, I TOLD HIM, "they ban even for whispers now we shouldn't do roleplay" "Come onnn they won't see whispers let's roleplay you're a big black redguard and i'm a little white boy!"

And now fucking permabanned. I spent like two years mantaining that account, so much money and time wasted. God fucking damn it. I should break up with him.

I'm gonna send appeal. I'm so mad at him, i never got to fucking play the story of the chapters and main quests i always wanted to for fuck sake, and now account gone, god fucking damn it!
>>
>>2180733
kinda concerning that companies these days don't tolerate just a bit of roleplay
>>
>>2180766

The game's been dead for years and them adding AI that instantly bans you if you whisper your friend words like "retard" "nigga" "faggot", etc drove most of the population away, specially the roleplay one since now if you do anything rape, pedo, slavery, etc. it's an instant permaban, and that's 99% of the roleplay.
>>
>>2178704
Someone please trick them into playing OMORI.
>>
>>2180733
Holy fuck. Imagine being the human that has to review this case hahaha.
>>
>>2180848
A human won't see it unless he appeals (won't work, that pubic hair line doomed him) multiple times. All the "little" and "boy" stuff set off the AI's pedo alarm and then some Indian rubber stamped it without looking away from his email scam tabs.
