I refuse to subscribe to the game. After the ordeal of trying to deal with that damn game at launch and a couple months after I have no idea. I guess people like second chances.
To OP tho'. I don't mind zoning if what I'm zoning into has depth. Sea…
Just the same ol' growing pains we've seen for over a decade now.
The bad response it to add a ton of servers. The good response is to add more authentication servers and shorten that process to get a speedier que.
It's a F2P game, looks like it h…

Your mind will be blown if you ever play a real Elder Scrolls game. I suggest Morrowind. It's cheap and epic.
I played Oblivion. I loved that game. It's what got me into mmorpgs, well …
