    I'd wish they would overhaul the complete combat system. It's really bad imo. Every player is whirling arms in the air and whiffing spellish combat moves without impact whatsoever. And I don't even mention this abysmal delayed reaction target hp bar. Otherwise great world, interesting quests, good scaling of building/dungeons. Even RvRvR. Only combat sucks like no tomorrow.

    I love when someone complains about something solely because they hear others complain about it and then accidentally make it super obvious they haven't played the game.

    My idea is to judge them after they have executed their plan. Or we could just bash them now and not care what the outcome is.

    They were supposed to fix the EU server back in summer 2018.

    It is still broken.

    Except he's 100% correct. This is ESO combat (done right):

    Well it's original Skyrim combat without mods of course it's outrageous so you just have to get used to it.

    The game is pretty great outside the combat, which is generally why I have not gone back in a while. My biggest problem with the combat is that you have to animation cancel to do reasonably good damage and movement feels floaty.

    i love when the fanboys arrive.
    but besides the absolute trash combat hp / ui stuff can be fixed with proper ui mods ( shouldn't be a thing ) the world is great, questing sometimes felt like a terrible grind and i always preferred everquest quest design.
    i m not a fan of scalable content but I guess that's what the kids want these days.
    rvr can be good sometimes but besides horrific performance and server performance it's not nowhere near daoc in terms of rvr

    yes, the combat sucks in ESO we did not want an elder scrolls MMO we just wanted elders scrolls games where you could co-op but these money worshipers wanted to suck as much money as they could out of gamers.

    It is the combat which finally made me leave the game. It is quite a great world and the whole voice-over-for-all-quests thing makes it really appealing, but the way the characters move and the stiffness of the combat just sucks. It's hard to become immersed in it.

    the only thing I dislike about teso's combat is it forces the stick or melee thing... what if I want to cast spells with a 2H or go shield and spell or something hybrid just isn't viable and for me that kills it.
  • flizzerflizzer Member RarePosts: 2,454
    Have to agree. The combat is what made me leave the game also. I love almost everything else about this game but cant deal with the horrible combat for too long :(
  • AlpiusAlpius Member UncommonPosts: 247
    See, I dont even mind the combat, for me the quests seem very slow and only a few of them have actually caught my eye as interesting, and those were all side quests. Also, hate the character building system and the 'meta' fads.

    Ummm, I played well into max and 300+ champ and I agree with him 100%. The combat lacks "oomph", it is very lackluster. Discrediting someone's opinion by claiming they did not play is juvenile. Hell, he even stated what he liked about the game but you had to go fanboy.

    Good try. I'm more critical of ESO and ZOS than anyone. This particular criticism however, it's pretty obvious he's just parroting what he thinks will get him some internet agrees.

    Sad thing is, at launch you could build a viable hybrid class. ZoS just continues to wreck anything good in this game though in favor of horrifically monetized cash shop items are are slowly drifting toward pay to win.

    And yet your responses are nothing more than "no u".  Pretty obvious you have no argument to make.

    ESO combat is keeping up 4 self buffs, 2 dots and spamming 1 damage ability, while light attack animation canceling inbetween all of it. It's a joke, period.

  • QSatuQSatu Member UncommonPosts: 1,796
    Strange that so many dislike combat in ESO. Besides not amazing animations I find combat in this game far more enjoyable than in most mmos.

    So in your mind anyone who says ESO combat sucks is just saying it because they heard it somewhere else? Or maybe.....just maybe (hang with me here) the popular opinion is the combat sucks?
