I never been a fan of MMOS with factions that you choose when you start. I prefer people create there own politics in forms of guild territory control etc.
factions are just taking away of the experience of bein open world game. Where we the player have overall control of how the game should be played. This can bring more satisfaction then dividing people into faction.
At least remove it from LFG tool....

Also remove the set factions from PvP..
make PvP a game about player factions, that fight the world on top of the 3 NPC factions..... And add a political function, so guilds can team up in player factions, and factions can make and break treaties...
next to 3 faction PvE, als 3 faction PvP was a bad idea, that can be undone
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) LOTRO (worldfeel) GW2 (Artstyle and animations and worlddesign) SWTOR (Story immersion) TSW (story) ESO (character advancement)
Just dropping my two cents in.
I actually prefer fixed/set factions over player made sandboxes. I have little to no interest in going into that player run mass guild/warfare drama myself, I like fixed scenarios and skirmishes, though, I do believe that changing faction should be allowed.
On the other side of the coin, I find set factions often too restricting. ESO is a perfect example. We should have free guesting so we could go to another faction's zones, to be able to play PVE with our friends. Do you need an acceptable reason from a lore standpoing? Diplomatic missions, whatever, dosn't matter. - Maybe I am getting old? I love my RPGs hardcore, but I like my MMOs with freedom.
We?re all dead, just say it.
Sorry for spelling stupid auto correct
There are games out there with the feature you want.
But you chose to play a game that doesn't have that feature.
You chose to come here to qq that the game needs to change because you made a bad choice.
There are good arguments on either side of the fence.
When someone figures out the best system.... You guys just let me know.
edit: The biggest flaw to the system in ESO for me, is not having a true open world and fencing off the factions from each other.
