IIIDRAGOIII: I used to be addicted to this game and never missed a day. Now there’s nothing to miss—just a boring, casual game you log into occasionally.

1ofthefam: They should make the new passive avalanche only accessible for base class builds or allow only one subclass.

xx_steezy_xx9496: They lost everybody .Dead gameplay.Pvp community wiped out from their hybridization/subclass BS

uncivilized371: You never know when it will be, but just when you need it eman drops a vid!

-S-T-R-E-A-K-: IMO, pure classes should feel rewarding, especially if you've been playing and mastering your class for years. It’s extremely frustrating otherwise. We’re also waiting far too long for crucial adjustments—short-term ones, not long-term.

GrimmLegion: As a player from 2016/17 time frame this is honestly the most I've heard them say they are going to try and even things out after dropping so many game changes things. I haven't played in a while because after 39k hours the game does feel dried out but like you said some people have a lot of time and money invested and they just want the game to do good. If they don't listen to the players the game will dry up completely so good on them for listening and on you for making this video on it.

L0oseG0ose: I love your idea of swapping the below 50 campaign with vengeance

jacobslinalx89: Yes subclassing is the issue. There's no build diversity. Why not combine the class that gives bonuses to crit chance with the class that gives bonuses to crit damage. Its the only combo that actually has synergy. A sorc dk doesnt make sense on paper. Most classes dont really fit well with others.

orrinsteadwick6538: eman always with the good analysis

looopygub: Just give no subclass 5% more damage heals and damage reduction and call it a day

vdtzv4178: By the time they get to the arcanist everything else is going to be needing buffs and reworks. Never ends.

ЯрославСуський: We will get something soon, but people leaving the game now...or already leaved. As for me, the credit of trust has long been exhausted.

Sorcnado: Cyro performance is still ass even after all these years. That's what ruins it for me

PauldarianBurns: Love the video. By the way, you hit on a lot of good areas. One thing that I want to point out is and I think every MMORPG is guilty of this. You know Ultima online absolutely was, EverQuest world of Warcraft etc. Even when you go through tooling like a new feature, the way something might look balanced for released. You know isn't isn't the way it transfers into. You know real life even if it's been playtested etc. I think subclassing is a big major thing that you know they said. Oh shit, what do we do now right? But this also brings me to the point of this is one of the things that I like about vengeance. Even though a lot of people say it's very stagnant and vanilla. I think that it lets them see the classes how one thing performs over another and it lets them start to balance because at the end of the day you're balancing two completely different things right? You're balancing PVE which used to be PVM just in case anybody was wondering, even though no one asked and PVP and you're also talking about a level skill-based game that has tremendous passives which I think make it highly customizable. But I want to tell you that I appreciate this video. Just in essence, it's giving me a lot to think about but PVP balancing as somebody who's I guess been a PK since 1996. I think that that is one of the hardest things to balance. Personally again, not a developer or anything like that

renebernahrdz4236: When will these changes come?

joshuapetrak-swann5307: I think they should add a set bonus like big stat boost as a passive for having all 3 class skill lines i also think they should buff all the non dps and less used dps lines to make them more useable

fojul: You mentioned other games; I been playing Where Winds Meet instead of ESO. The class balance was bad before subclassing, I played a dead playstyle already, and with subclassing, it made it even worse to look at. That's why I uninstalled. Hopefully the class restructure may fix it, if not I'll stay where I'm at over here on WWM.

DalenDax: Im still new to ESO, but im wondering if I should download eso again

puldor00: It's nice that they're looking at reworking something specific to PVP, Battle Spirit. It was always frustrating playing in PVE with a set/skill and then hear of it getting nerfed only to see in the forums that it was because it was too over powered in PVP. Gameplay in one game mode should not be toyed with for the sake of the other. Battle Spirit is that one significant thing that will separate the modes. Fingers crossed.

ESO_PRIME: I have hope because ZOS saw this year how many of their players actually pvp when thr majority of the endgame players left in mass exodus with subclassing. With a new game director, the death of their new mmo, the death of their direct competitor New World, and the current climate of mmos, ZOS has a greay opportunity to turn this around. With class reworks, a fixed cyrodil, a new pvp zone, and cross account coming we could see a major rebirth in this game. Only time will tell

Ceraph30: I think they’re headed in the right direction from a class identity perspective but I really hate how lack luster and slow the combat in vengeance feels and that you’re abilities feel like they have no weight behind them. Maybe I’m so used to being able to line up a one shot combo

UR_AL_SHOOK_UP: Great video brotha GGs

KingNelsonYT: Good video this. Just came back to giving ESO a go and must say it’s not the same…

misterbrady100: I doubt that anything can bring back the glory days. But they might be able to usher in a new era. Hopefully for the better.

ChrisMeinert: Recently I’ve been running DraugerKin and Malacath Band of Brutality just to spite the meta. I Love its synergy -10% healing and -50% Crit damage. Super busted combo.

allen1bbb: Been playing for a long time but I've stopped for a while. Subclassing is a issue for me and the performance has needed love for a long time. With all that and the grind adjusting to changes just for them to change things than grind again just over it. No balance pvp combat doesn't feel rewarding anymore. I enjoy your content. For me ESO lost me won't be coming back. Been a good 9 years.
