    Green champion changes are HUGE for me as a crafter. No longer will I have to keep remembering to slot meticulous disassembly every time I want to refine or deconstruct something. I am also really looking forward to the add ons for console since I'm on ps5 and I know there are some nifty add ons that would be very useful for my crafting life. Cyrodill is a kind of I will see when it comes out since I cannot make judgements yet until I try it. I'm just glad they are at least trying something to fix the performance. I have died to lag and dcs so many times there that I usually hope I only encounter like 8 other players at most (its never just 8). Even if this test fails I hope they continue to try to figure out something to make Cyrodill fun to play in and not a "Hope I don't lag out right now....NOOOOOOO" zone. The visual updates that they have planned look like how I usually look for graphics mods for Skyrim. Make the area more immersive and bring up the atheistic to be on par with the current gen level. So hopefully we will see more improvements across the main base zones. :)

      Agreed! Though in my personal opinion, special treatment for zone hub cities (e.g. Daggerfall, Riften, Mournhold, etc.) would be eagerly invited on my part. So using Deshaan as an example, texture improvements to vanilla architecture used in Serkamora, Narsis, & Selfora is practical and sufficient. However, giving Mournhold a unique architecture set and handcrafted design akin to Necrom's would be GOATed!
      It's probably a bigger ask than ZOS will be willing to provide, but I think it would add a lot of value!

    I'm really surprised they don't do holiday themed events in cyro/make the anchors more of a threat to take care of. At this point Molag is just a yapping cliche npc that isn't taken as seriously as he's suppose to be. Me and a friend were talking about how having random event (STRONG) daedric armies attack other keeps at random (sorta like volunrung spawn can change tides of war) to spice things up. Actually make it feel like daedric threat/reason to fight the war. Then with the anchors, make it be like if they arent handled in time it spawns more of those armies into cyrodil/maybe a giant world boss in overland. Also having turkey/flaming pumpkin catapults in cyro sounds sorta FUN like cyro should be.

      As someone who has been playing the game for several years now, I do find the usual seasonal events to be a little bit boring, just because I've done them so many times and new changes to the structure of those events are seldom made. Incorporating some kind of special event in PVP zones during the holidays would be an awesome way to spice things up a bit!

      I haven't played since U35, quick questions, are tank/support roles fun to play again, or are they still taking tank skills and reworking them for DPS? (Like when they changed powerslam to simply reduce stamina cost because gathering stacks from blocking wasn't something DPS would do at all - instead of making it a tank skill that could scale with armor/health).
      And can we finally put helms on companions, or are we still the generic sidekicks (that wear helmets) to the companion main characters who always show their faces?

      I think it's actually a hidden but BIG thing. The vanilla game is wonderful, but it's outdated and in certain zones it feels REAAAAAALLY ugly and bad or even boringly designed, colored, textured, etc. Or in some case, the 3d model/meshes are genuinely shoddy looking cause maybe it was rushed or just not as much love was put into it compared to other areas. ZOS improving these vanilla areas gives us the opportunity to love those areas again in a new way especially since we may be getting new questlines/quests in different older zones in the future.
      I started ESO in Jan/Feb of 2020 and I could tell after just a little while that WOW, the old zones are very obviously disjointed from Morrowind and onwards. Even Wrothgar which I know is so beloved looks REALLY outdated compared to Summerset for example. ZOS doing this finally gives the game a chance to be totally unified in art style, quality, and will add more replayability to older zones not just because of the new quests that may come but also because god dang...sometimes I want to leave those older zones because they just aren't as polished or as impressive as newer zones.
      Not sure how far they're going to take this...but I hope that Reaper's March for example, when it gets upgraded, gets some TRUE love. That zone feels so much like an after though compared to the beauty of say Malabal Tor or Grahtwood. The Khajiit areas feel so...gross and red clay in a bad way...if they can make that area as quality as Northern Elsweyr and make the Bosmer areas as pretty as say Galen and Vashabar then suddenly the game feels way more exciting and together.
      So I agree. The base game areas are one of my most anticipated upgrades!!! I figured this would be necessary back when I started in 2020 and knew it was only a matter of time/knew it was possible but with those Chapter releases every year, I knew it was going to be tricky.
      If ESO can make the WHOLE world of Tamriel that we have access to playable beyond just the zone questlines and make them fun to return to all the while introducing new questlines or whatever else the "refurbish", shall we say, the world, then I think only good things could come from it.

I'll take a fresh look when U46 drops, but in the meantime I'm having a LOT more fun spending my limited gaming time playing other MMOs. ZOS have a lot of ground to cover if they want players like me (and there are a sizeable number of us out there) to seriously consider playing the game again.

    Everyone talking about those crafting skills in the green tree, but look at those thieving skills that will not have to be slotted now! I missed that in the live stream. Good deal. This is a QOL that I like. Something that is actually helpful, and also something that I never really thought about. Nice surprise all around. Also, as far as the PvP testing I am all for it. Be prepared for the top tier streamer PvP players to be horrendously mortified and shaking their fists in impotent rage while the average skilled folks who just like bopping around in PvP have a super great time. All in all though, if I hit a button and nothing happens, or still happens 1 1/2 seconds after it was supposed to occur, all the testing still won't matter.

  • @corywhitebread6519
    @corywhitebread6519 2 дня назад +1

    The entire green tree aside for some movement speed ones honestly should have been passives. 90% of them really don't affect anything major or give any real competitive advantage in a combat scenario.
    As for the Cyrodiil, this is just a test to see some data to try to narrow down the performance issues. I do wonder if they are also going to limit item set's as well. Otherwise there will be quite a power creep from certain specific sets and even some mythics.

    Hello @Arttea - fellow ESO enjoyer here to share a concern. This must be the 10th time I hear the devs say they're going to do XYZ for "server load", "server performance", "server calculations". At the exact same time, ESO is the only game I play with 100-130 inconsistent ping (that sometimes reaches 150-200 in combat) on the Europe servers even though I am in physical proximity to Europe and only get ~~44 consistent ping in any other mainstream game. In fact, I usually get 110 ping to Dota 2's US East servers- that's consistent, therefore better than ESO's EU servers. This is the one grievance I've had with ESO above all- are they just cheaping out on servers, or what? It's really sucking the fun out of the game when all the controls become unresponsive during big spikes. Also a question for everyone else- where are you situated (roughly) and how much ping do you get?

    I'd really love some Housing upgrades...House Tours is great and I think was necessary for a game like ESO where housing is so social and there are so many tournaments and so on. BUT! I think it's high time we get furnishings that serve as waypoints. So we can run up to the portal, interact with the furnishing (maybe it's like a cool Stargate or something more subtle even) and you can then waypoint out of your home. Something like that.
    Also...we have ladders and ropes to climb up in various areas of the game...we should have something like that for Housing too. It would allow for more verticality more easily. If you're building a tower for example, having a ladder to go up to a nook here or there would add some really fun and functional designs.
    While they're improving cyro performance...maybe they can figure out what to do about housing furnishing slots? Maybe they can make a system wherein, for PC, if you're about to enter a home with more slots in use than are recommended for performance, it could give you a "are you sure you want to enter this home, xyz thing could happen including slow fps, game crash, etc". That way, those of us with beastly computers can create the damn paradisical home of our dreams. OR, maybe they could create some sort of Housing template. Wherein you could save your home as one asset somehow...where you save the structure of the home as one big asset instead of individual furnishings. So let's say I put down 100 limestone wall pieces or something from Summerset and then I can lock/link them together, save, and then then they are merged into ONE asset in game once you load back into the house. Maybe the game engine doesn't actually work that way IDK that much about coding but I know it can work in certain 3D environments/games I've played before.
    And finally, while we're gettin' all creative and stuff. One thing that I LOVED back in my GW2 days year ago was when they had a community art contest and then the weapon designs that won were made into weapons for the community to earn thru in game "quests" I guess you could call them. That would be SUPER COOL for them to do especially now that we have Golden Pursuits. I think it fits well with the theme and sort of rewards for that content as well. But of course, the requirements would probably have to be that they are lore friendly...maybe it can be fantastical to some extent but not like "hey your staff is literally a rainbow that will blind friend and foe alike" haha.

    aight so how many tests they gonna do? they been doin this for periodically for years saying the same bs. circa 2014 early 2015 pre IC (there is a lot of footage on yt) you could have massive scale keep fights etc that were completely smooth. we are talking hundreds of players, peak hour eso pvp with siege etc approx 500v500v500. This was pre lighting patch (1.5). I am not sure why no one talks about this. The potential was always there, its the inability of their technical team to deliver it. the servers could, at one point, handle it easily, but spaghetti code after post late 2015-2016 around Shadows of the Hist disabled it. The fact that it is only now basically a decade after a lot of players have suggested separating PvP from PvE similar to GW2 and they are only acting on it now is baffling. I suspect it is because their servers were flawed, and tackling the pvp issue was the elephant in the room that required a lot of fund allocation, time and technical expertise that they cbf with.

    Thanks for the great video. The same exact Cyro test happened a few years ago and did nothing but waste players time, what makes this time any different? I don't think ESO will ever be able to handle the vision that the devs had for such a large PvEvE area, the game's engine obviously not built to handle such things. They can improve upon it, sure, but we wouldn't be here 10 years post-release if it was fixable. This really just feels like more hopium that ZoS is pumping into the community, which will quickly turn into copium. Another few years will go by, and they will say they're fixing it, yet again and the cycle starts over. They do the same things with the rest of the game too. This all feels like a way to boost Q1/Q2 numbers, but not long-term. I've been around this game since beta and know how much they hype things up only to produce a half-baked version of what was said and/or be wrought with major problems. Apologies to be so negative here, but I get the ZoS hope and cope gimmick far to well. This year will be THE year for this game, right? 🙄

    TL;DR: They're "fixing" the best part of cyro and not the kind of content we want. Builds are fine as is, very few pvpers complain about pvp builds. Honestly most people don't even complain about Cyrodiil performance anymore. We just want fresh content. And maybe an end to ball groups.
    ----------
    I honestly worry about the direction they're going with cyro. Part of what makes pvp in ESO so much fun is the build diversity and how creative you can get with load outs and then how effectively you can use them. Even if the class specific builds do improve performance (which I doubt), it would take away one of the things that really makes cyro fun. I mean, just look at the pvp servers right now, no proc & no cp servers are always super dead. If all you get are 15 skills (and 1-3 ultimates, depending if they're going the companion route and only giving you the one ultimate) & they're class exclusive, not only is now class an absolute dealbreaker on if you pvp with it (since historically you could use primarily weapon & guild skills if you wanted), but now you have very limited build diversity since you're essentially just picking which 5 skills you DON'T want to use, and I can guarantee there will be skills that are just objectively worse and so aren't even really a choice.
    FFXIV has roughly the same load out style for pvp and it honestly makes pvp so unfun to have no real options or variety. It's so exciting when you're doing fights and someone shows up with just an absolutely wild build and you get to poke at it, or coming up with new strats as the meta shifts around various popular sets or play styles. You lose a lot of the heart & replayability of pvp when you narrow it down to just "kill people fun." If that were the case, all pvpers would just play call or duty instead. All fights are suddenly just player skill or who brought the biggest zerg, which can be fun but it's not what people are in cyro for. It's just not fun to see who can press the same 10 buttons the best.
    I feel like zos might be missing the mark here. We DO want change, but we want new additional content, not the existing stuff to be reworked into being virtually unrecognizable. We're loud about the pvp because we really enjoy it. If performance is an issue (which I honestly think has been cleared up pretty well in the past couple years - it's pretty much just ball groups causing performance issues now) cap stacks of things like RR or lower max group size to 4 so you don't have to count as many "only applies to group members" skills. Take all the non-quest npcs out of cyro if they're really that desperate. No one is in there saying "oh wow I love fighting wolves" when there's keeps to seige. Even better, just make a pve instance and put all the questing in there and take all the non-guard npcs out of pvp cyro.
    I know things I personally would like to see in cyro are essentially new game modes, like how the hammer changes things up. It would be nice to see instead new daedric artifacts (that would double resistances for friendlies within a certain range or each kill with the artifact is an entire point for the campaign or a camp that has respawns in half the time that can't be burned) or like maybe occasionally a random resource or town will be worth going to (for double points or spawn unique things like capturing it has a chance to mail you a motif or style page or drop a lead to a new oil like we have leads for lancers or there's like one of the IC bosses guarding the resource). Imagine if cyro had a 20 minute crazy king or headhunter objective!
    For me and most of the people I pvp with, the enjoyment in cyro is from the actual fighting and refining the builds we create. The pvp itself is lots of fun in cyro; things that would be nice are excuses to do pvp for different reasons. Defending & taking keeps is still fun years in, but it would be nice to do the same pvp in different ways for different objectives. The real issue with pvp, especially cyro, is it's so good we've done it to the point of exhaustion. We want to do the same thing differently! We want life to be brought back into the game! Trials and dungeons get new mechanics and new bosses all the time where people get to do the same thing differently. We're just asking for new reasons to do the same things we've been doing. Things that pop up on the map and are worth spending 5 minutes on your horse to get out to the middle of nowhere and do combat.

    They would not be reworking old zones and testing stuff for Cyro performance and definitely not introducing new tech for add-ons on console, if they were preparing for the game to fade out. Those are changes that are supposed to be a long-term improvement. Of course you never know, what ideas some higher-ups will have, but at least the devs themselves seem to still be planning for the game to keep running for several years.

    I stopped ESO playing about 8 months ago due to being unhappy with how the console player is forced to waste lots of time with regards to selling items. Manually going to all traders all over the place and having to manually type in everything everywhere any time you need to sell something isnt how I wanted to play. IF the devs read this they need to fix this problem before I'd ever think about returning. I cannot believe I'm the only one with this opinion. Arttea, good luck with your channel. :)

    the base game zone improvements dont seem like very much, that was the one thing i was interested in from the letter in december - but it just seems like they added a few more clutter items and made the water look better. those are just random little things they should have done 10 years ago with tamriel unlimited. base game improvements to me would be things like remodeling the major cities like daggerfall to be up to par with cities like vivec, or overhauling the base game boss designs.
    this feels so minor that it's insane they listed it as a major change coming in 2025... i haven't played eso in about a year and this makes me want to play less tbh, feels like a dying game.

    Actually looks kinda based. Heard indirectly awhile back what they were planning with Cyro and immediately got terrified they’d implement it in the worst possible way. While I’m sure they’ll get parts of it very wrong, atleast starting out with a totally separate server is 100% the right move. No need to modify existing servers yet with a new experiment.
    I’m very curious what actual combat Will end up being like.
    While I don’t like simplification, I like more people with less lag.
