"Breaking point: The seesaw in Sea of Stars(map). Because the problems with this update isn't just the bugs, the shameless money scam dye crystals and obvious lack of testing; it isn't just the sorry excuse of story progression and empty promises of lore; it isn't just the weird retcon that revealed to us that Infold doesn't have a plan or isn't sticking to it. It's also about what they've chosen to prioritize over these things. We expect them to invest on things that they can sell for money, of course. But they also have to spend time and energy on free content to keep us having a reason to play (and pay), and this is what they thought we want? A playground toy? A bubble we can awkwardly stand on for a few seconds? A circle where we transform into animals a few times to get achievements? Dailies that force us to do these weird activities so we can be reminded every day of what a joke the Sea of Stars is? What does any of this have to do with time and space and the end of worlds??

And to me, the seesaw sums it up so well, because not only is it random and pointless, but it feels outright infantilizing. We like cute things, but that doesn't make us kids who will be happy just mindlessly bouncing up and down on a seesaw, and it doesn't mean that story and lore and gameplay does not matter to us. I'm almost embarrassed for them that they thought this is what we want to see in the "place where everything began." Sea of Stars would have been better if it was just a tiny island with the Seer and none of these silly activities, with the prospect of complete and meaningful content to come in future updates.

It may not mean much to their bottom line, but I'm not spending money again until they show us they are committed to giving us real content." -u/RecklessCinnabar

base content can give you months if not years of playtime;
the dlcs are worth getting (with eso+ or buy them with gold)
playstyle is so clean for an mmorpg
exploration 100/10
careful with crown purchases, don't open your wallet until you learn what cosmetic items are worth getting, they reskin a lot of the same items and sell it as something new.
crown crates are predatory, stay away of lottery boxes
as everything it has good and bad things, but imo the good outlasts the bad here
