Modders deserve more recognition and support, I would suggest a dedicated modding forum or a more streamlined mod upload process.

Fishing and cooking could be more engaging and rewarding experiences with new mechanics and recipes.
More Pet Options
It would be awesome to have more pet options, including different breeds and customization options for my in-game cat.
Fix Combat Balance
I believe the combat system would be more engaging if there was a better balance between different classes and ranged/melee approaches. This would encourage creativity in build designs and make the game more enjoyable for players who want to express themselves.
Unique Builds
I loved the uniqueness of builds in the early stages of the game, but when everyone started playing the same way, it lost its charm. A way to maintain or revive this aspect would be greatly appreciated.
Content Expansion
The game could benefit from regular content updates, including new dungeons, puzzles, and expansions, to keep players engaged and excited about what's to come.
Improved Performance
Lag, latency, and performance issues were a significant problem for many players. I suggest investing in optimization and improving the game's overall performance.

Make the game free of pay-to-progress mechanics, so players can enjoy without feeling forced to spend money to progress.

Include more content in the base game, instead of forcing players to purchase DLC packs for every additional feature.

Improve bag space management so players don't feel forced to spend money on additional storage.

Make it clear what value players get from purchasing DLC packs, so they feel it's worth the cost.
Free DLC
I think the developers should make the DLCs free for players who have already purchased the game.
Loot Box Changes
I would like to see the loot box system changed so that it's not based on gambling and doesn't encourage players to spend more money for a chance at rare items.
In-Game Purchases
I think in-game purchases should be more straightforward and not based on chance, allowing players to make informed decisions about how to spend their money.
More Accessibility

No Paywalls
I think it would be better if the game didn't have paywalls that restrict certain content and features unless players spend more money.

More Transparency
I think the developers should be more transparent about the game's monetization and how it affects the player's experience.
Fix Server Stability
After 8 years, it's unacceptable that Cyrodiil's server stability is still an issue. I believe it's crucial to prioritize a long-term solution to this problem.
Accountability
As someone who's invested in this game, I think it's essential to hold developers accountable for their promises. If they can't deliver, they shouldn't receive funding.
New Revenue Streams
Instead of relying solely on revenue, consider exploring new revenue streams to ensure a more stable financial future for the game.
Provide Translation
I think it's unfair that the game doesn't have a translation yet, even though it was released in 2014. I suggest providing a translation to cater to a broader audience.
Volunteer Support
I appreciate the community's efforts in translating the game, but I think the game developers should take responsibility and provide official translations to support the community's hard work.

The lore was distorted, it's essential to maintain consistency and accuracy to enhance the gaming experience.

The current UI for filtering and sorting comments can be clunky and time-consuming. A more intuitive design would make it easier for players to find and engage with relevant comments.

世界观宏大，可玩性强，老玩家对新手很友好。但是：画风建模略显老；卡顿掉线时常有；官方汉化虽经过优化但仍有些许错误和机翻遗留；不开会员没有无限材料包搞不了制作；买了收藏版依然还有很多内容需要开会员或者游戏内购买才能体验。 建议：如果你也和我一样热衷魔幻题材，直接开会员入就完了，否则慎入。

  • Sentiments

    • Great world view, high replay value, and friendly to new players.
    • However, the graphics modeling may be slightly old.
    • And sometimes the lag will drop connections.
    • Additionally, official Chinese localization still has some errors and machine translation leftovers.
    • It's not worth buying the collector's edition without a subscription.

Positive

I treat the game like a big singleplayer with the occasional social interaction. Lots of lore, stories, collectibles and a beautiful environment. Not much of an end game player. Got my main geared up as good as possible for a solo player and can tackle much of the game on my own at my own pace.

    • overwhelming experience, engaging story, and high replay value
    • environment feels spent.
    • collected lore and collectibles are amazing.
    • story gets really boring as you progress.
    • easy to get lost in the open world.
    • endgame has some diversity.
    • highly suitable for a single-player experience.
    • players can decide their own pace.
    • not very need for social interaction.
    • not very satisfied with the replay value.
    • Frees up quite a lot of fun and possibilities.
    • Mix of surviving and application and loot.
    • story and mechanics work well but ground to.
    • birthed so many opened ended concepts.
    • game is quality overall depending what things applied.
    • 75/100 overall mission dear reader.
    • worth the price if its the new.
    • Good For returning to custom disparate some end.

Don't purchase if you are from the SEA and Oceania region. This game has no servers besides NA and EU, and is relatively unplayable from other regions. You have been warned.

  • Sentiments

    • warn against purchase from SEA and Oceania region
    • warn about unplayability from other regions

Negative

Legitimately the most predatory systems I've seen in any MMO still being run by the original publishers. Holds inventory space hostage, employs arbitrary timers and restrictions on shops and crafting to ensure daily logins, extortionate cash shop with lootboxes and to top it all off, disrespects established Elder Scrolls lore. Bugs persist for years before being addressed, if at all. Quality of life features are non-existent. This game does not respect your time in any way.

  • Sentiments

    • an extremely negative experience
    • exploitative monetization
    • disrespectful to customers
    • exciting and difficult
    • amusing
    • highly frustrating
    • incredibly poorly designed
    • steep learning curve
    • mostly annoyances
    • unfairly harsh
    • reporting issues is challenging
    • errors are numerous
    • exploiting the player's emotions
    • game's reputation is severely damaged
    • it's a technically impressive but most annoying experience
    • one thing many players will not tell you
    • a very very bad game

Day 4 of trying to play. Got in the game, played it for a bit, bought a membership. game crashed and i had to reboot. Did that... logged in, need a code sent to my email, logged into email and no code, told to try again in 24 hours. contacted support and they don't reply. found out i was banned within the 30 minutes of playing because my name was extremely offensive to the point i had to be instantly and permanently banned without a warning or a ticket to change my name, MIND YOU THEY MONITOR NAMES AND APPROVE THEM PRIOR TO CREATION... SO HOW DID I GO THROUGH THEIR SO CALLED BREACHED TERMS AND CONDITIONS... My name was "Drunkenelf" If thats so offensive then why have alcohol in the game? there are literally NPC's stumbling around with ale... bruh

Was literally the best mmo with the most fun combat system. Crafting was unique and well made. Every expansion was awesome filled with dungeons and puzzles. Made great friends with this game. But with every game... the devs pushed out all creativity. They watered down and kept watering down and kept watering down all uniqueness. Eventually there was no difference between a magic character or a melee. The fun came out of creative builds but when everyone runs the exact same thing no matter class or range it isnt fun. (if they fixed it I would love to come back but now its a memory of once was.) We overlooked lag, latency, performance, and lack of content for months at a time cause we believed in the combat system.

  • Sentiments

    • The game was initially very enjoyable with unique combat mechanics.
    • The crafting system was well-made and unique.
    • Every expansion had a lot of content, including dungeons and puzzles.
    • I made great friends while playing the game.
    • However, the developers eventually lost their creativity and watered down the game's uniqueness.
    • The game eventually became uninteresting with too much repetition.
    • A lack of content and poor performance issues also detracted from the experience.
