So I got the Greymoor expansion to pick up the free house-package and to my surprise, I somehow have another Notable home; the Grand Psjic Villa. Was this given away somewhere or something cause I'm pretty sure I'd remember picking that up.
It was free from an event, but I forget the details. It was like 2 years ago?
I’ve not played in a while, but just reinstalled, and have enough crowns to unlock it.
My one complaint, well, two complaints, are that i get no permanent skeletal minion (need to resummon every 15 seconds), and that i can't sen and army of zombies to destroy my enemies.
I've pretty much switched from sorcerer to warlock.
Sorc is stronger i think, or easier, atleast it has better self heals, but necromancer is fun and that is what is most important, and it has decent self heals, good damage and some nice defense abilities.
Only real problem is that now i have to go play all the factions and dlc's, again, to get the skill points i need.
If you don't mind that, or are ok with just getting skill points slowly through dlc's withough doing faction storylines, then i would recommend the class.
I am kinda sorta getting to the end of my interest in terms of managing our two Guilds. I might stick around with Ash Housewares, but I'm really not interested in managing Pax Arcadia anymore.
So... who wants to take over?

Delduwath: Yeah, gotta use Mehrunes' Razor.

What's to manage? Is anyone doing anything with it? I mean, I log in every day (more or less) and can do whatever needs to be done with it, but as near as I can tell Pax Arcadia is kind of dead.
There's two other PA-related guilds I'm in... Ash Housewares and... I forgot the name of the other... but neither of them seem active either. Every once in a while I dump something in the bank for one or another guild, and look through what's in there, but nothing much seems to change.
I am, but I just started last night and so I can't really comment on how it compares to other systems.
I actually only got it because a coworker convinced me to play with her, and it's on Gamepass so I figured it can't hurt. Turns out it's better than I expected! Less of an MMO than I thought it would be, which is great cuz I fuckin hate MMOs, but we'll see if it holds my attention like one or not. Playing with a friend will be fun for awhile at any rate. Going with a Dunmer sorcerer, straight up magicka dps and stuff since she's a dragon knight what hits monsters with a stick.
If this game has a flaw, it is the pure amount of content.
Well, that's not really a flaw, but how character progression is tied to the content, lot of skill points (whixh you can never have too many, or enough) are tied to exploring zones and doing main faction/dlc/expansion quests.
Not a problem if you are doing your first character, because quite frankly all that content is great.
But when doing alts, it can get old (the content is not always that great).
I'm currently on a break (still log in occasionally for crafting timers and stuff) because the repeating content can get old, and i want to do the main faction areas and the larger expansions before i start the newest zone.
Still, graphics are good, gameplay is great, and crafting is fun (purple gear is easy to get and more than enough for any normal dungeons or world bosses (when in teams atleast)).
Solid recommendation from me for anyone who wants some fantasy rpg stuff with light mmo elements (though Craglorn sucks, all group content and no way to form groups easily unless you have friends who also play).

They did add an option where you can unlock skyshards for alts if you've completed all of them on a character, but to me, skyshards are the least annoying skill point acquisition method. Well, non-Cyrodiil skyshards anyway. And if you have all the expansions and are subbed for the DLCs, it's actually A LOT of skill points.
What I've taken to doing is basically a) only coming back to farm skill points from quests if I literally cannot remember what a zone quest entails anymore and b) basically speedrunning *only* the quests that give skill points and ignoring everything else in a zone and c) also just basically skipping the dialogue. It's still... time consuming. I'm about halfway through the Aldmeri Dominion on that (and also working my way toward getting the Caldwell's Gold thing)

Delduwath: Yeah, gotta use Mehrunes' Razor.
Anybody having problems launching the game at all on PC?
I just decided to try to log in to do more of aforementioned Aldmeri Dominion questline, only to have the game crash between login and character select. Forums say that something went wonky with the last update, and that I should just sit tight till December 7?

If so, how is it ? Any improvements ?

Setting seems to be the Blackwoods region insoutheast Cyrodiil and neighboring Black Marsh. And the Deadlands in Oblivion.
