Really?
I'm not trying to elitist but you look at the complaints levelled against this game (not just here but in various other sites) and for every decent complaint there are 10 "I want a mini map to tell me where to go" "I die too often, mobs are too hard" "I don't understand how to skill up, it's too complicated" "I don't like the big world I want hubs" sort of complaints. It is indicative of the newer generation wanting what they have always had, an easy ride.
I know I'm tarring everyone with the same brush and that's not my intent but when you look at the wow games and their derivatives that is the type of player base you generally have.
Please show me evidence that disputes this if you truly believe otherwise and I will listen.
Someone mentioned it was down earlier, about 1 and a half hours ago.
AndrewNR when i was hardcore wow gamer i got on my main
real first 80 playing 76 hours without sleep then i had 5 hours nap and farmed heroic dungeons for next 16 hours.
This is PRO level of gaming we are talking here about. And playing in world top 150 guild
It was 5 years ago or so when WOTLK came put. Now i am casual playing 7-8 hours a day + 13-15 hours on weekends.
Dont have time for more due to work running aerobics and gymnastics.
After week of playing eso i lost 2.5kg of body fat and got ripped NO **** i was living on corn flakes with milk and protein powder + vitamins. As no time for cooking

Warcraft syndrome right there. I want to play a multi player game but I actually don't want any negative experiences from other players, therefore please compartmentalise my entire game play.
Your statement is even worse because it's not even a given it's going to happen, yet you get put off a mechanic because another player might get there first.
Attitudes like this belong in a single player experience and have utterly ruined what the traditional MMO was all about.
I find it fun running to wood or whatever before someone else and altho i'd rather not lose out but it I do enjoy that I can and other people have effects on myself with their actions in the world.
Could not agree more.
I have found this game surprisingly very good, but I'm still feel a bit put off, in fact maybe a lot more about how instanced the game is, and the ever ever so slow loading screens
Oh shut up with your condescending ****. I have never played WOW at all.
I am not talking about a guy getting there two seconds before me and opening the case. When I get that to that region after exploring, the guy who gets there 20 minutes before me finds the case and opens it. I do the same exploring but I get nothing.
It's not that it might happen, it is happening.
With mining and gathering it's no big swing because you just run along and find the next one. You don't have to go out of the way to get them. IT's not about that either. I have no problem with a guy getting to a resource before me.
It's specifically about the rewards Zenimax have gone and on and on about for encouraging people to explore. It's an MMO sure, but, firstly it's PVE, I am not in a competition with anyone else. There is a whole PVP world for that. Secondly, it's still my game experience.
If it's case that other people are affecting the world around you, why are barrels/crates/sacks lootable by everyone? Shouldn't they work the same as gathering? Is that not ruining the whole MMO experience for you?
Never mind that you quoted me all out of context. I was giving out that the loot inside chests is rubbish. Not worth the bother of going exploring for. Coupled with the fact that when you do find an out of the way location the chest is usually gone, found by somebody else. The loot inside is definitely not worth waiting for. And if you quoted my sentence right to the end you would see I said that Rarer chests with better loot would be a more encouraging system.
