    1v1 me in Tales of Tribute bro But no, fr, have you had a chance to play this new card game yet? What do you think?
    Edit: The order of which you place your combos (cards of the same suit) does not actually matter, unlike what was suggested in this video. Thank you sorakasexual for the correction!

    I went in very sceptical as I fell asleep during the preview of this game. I ended up playing it for a few hours and was pleasantly surprised it was much better than they made it look/sound, and I can see myself playing a game or two while I wait for my raid group to gather up, or when I am up at a weird hour and my friendliest is sleeping.
    I do wish it was more ESO thematic, and by that I mean, that the cards were with well-known NPCs, the decks were either zone themed or class themed, and we could get Sotha Sil or M'aiq the Liar as our ally, make combos with skills from necro skill lines or something. I know the cards are related to Elder Scrolls lore and I do like the art itself, but it would have been so much more fun to see our (least) favourite dungeon and trial monsters on these decks.

    My knee jerk reaction when it was announced was very much along the lines of wtf and the reveal just bewildered me (I was really hoping for a water class). But as you say, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. Having another social component to the game is definitely a plus.

    • @Arttea
      @Arttea  2 роки тому +1

      Something like spellcrafting/1h and spell would have been wicked! Something more water-based would also be neat, given the fact that this chapter has so many ties with sea-faring activities, and maybe even maormer? But yes, at least we got a little something to tide us over while they work on performance fixes 🙏

  • @alexjohnson3175

    I share the same view on this game, not exactly what I wanted from this DLC, but don't knock it till you try it. I could see myself jumping into a guildie discord chat and chillin over a game of ToT, after running some more stressful content like Vet dungeons or trials.

    I've been wanting ZOS to do a official companion app for ESO, similar to Fifa Ultimate Team, where you can micromanage, trade, edit builds and what not. I feel like ToT would be better received by the community if it was on mobile and was part of a bigger system(companion app) or like you said wasn't the chapter selling feature.

  • @OldSaltySean1

  • @Miakutog
    @Miakutog 2 роки тому +12

    I think the devs adding new companions, new mythics, new scries, etc etc is enough new content for me to be satisfied. I am holding out hope that zos will do what they said they will do at the beginning of this year; that being taking a break from more intensive projects and taking the year to stabilize the game and get some much needed normalcy back post-pandemic. It's probably a situation where they will come strong NEXT year and i really hope that they take this time to stabilize the game and update their technology and interfaces, like they said they would.

    • @Arttea
      @Arttea  2 роки тому +8

      I definitely agree - no amount of new content would appease me the way it would if I could cast my skills in Cyrodiil, and if that kind of performance improvement is something that is birthed out of this year's work and development on the game, then it will all be absolutely worthwhile in my opinion. That being said, I played during the "Year of the Dragon" year-long adventure, and I recall that around this time, the devs were suggesting that it was also the "year of performance improvements"; they created a road map for the entire year's worth of performance updates. Unfortunately, a lot of people did not feel as if they delivered on their promises given the state of the game's performance. I worry that a similar situation may occur here, but I am remaining optimistic!

    • @K-Von
      @K-Von 2 роки тому +1

      Haha I'm exactly on the same boat, I'm still hanging on that idea of them trying to regularise their business this year and hopefully they also get good results from the servers upgrades and code overhaul they published past months.
      Because this year the mmo market has been pretty active and then seeing what eso is having for main chapter feature this year is actually disappointing, especially when the new maps looks really beautiful and personally I'm still waiting for zos surprising us with some gameplay evolution like in other mmos.

    • @MashMalloman
      @MashMalloman 2 роки тому +2

      They've said the same thing every year so I wouldn't expect much. "Year of performance" they keep saying. New servers. Things are happening behind the scenes. Well.. how long can we continue to accept that same excuse. 3 years of casual based mechanics is way too long. This is an MMORPG, it should improve upon what we came here to do and what makes ESO different from other MMO's. Time and time again, MMO's that focus on casual content like farming and companions, fail to deliver and ultimately dissapoint.
      At least the card game is soial, but it needs a ton of work. As Arttea put it, the first thing I noticed was bad animations, clunky slow UI, no pizaz in terms of characters or sound design. It's very dull.. but somewhat addictive. I'll play it, but it needs a lot of work.

    @noahsmith6005 2 роки тому +1

    I like this a lot honestly
    I was super excited when they announced another non combat thing to do and tot is actually pretty decent so far. It started very rough though, it took me having to go thru the tutorial and losing three matches to the npcs before I really figured out what I was doing.
    I wish there were more cards to collect or more decks though
    The pool of cards seems pretty limited.
    I’d also have liked if they included something else in the area to; like a jousting mini game or something, the card game on its own isn’t enough of a flagship addition truthfully but I still like the expansion

  • @JMErlendson
    @JMErlendson 2 роки тому +6

    I’ll be honest - I was also quite surprised they would focus on a CCG as an expansion, but then I realized that they could outsource this entire component to reduce the burden on the already-stretched core dev team. Particularly where balance changes are needed in BOTH the CCG and game. But from what I’ve seen, the game seems fairly robust, and as a former competitive TCG player, I’m really interested. I’m really jazzed about it. In fact, my biggest concern is that I have to fire up the PS to play a card game - that’s not the interface I would expect. This might port nicely to mobile, and I would love to have your progress on a mobile app connect with your ESO account - something like Mass Effect Apex HQ?
    Nonetheless, thanks for the honest and comprehensive review!

    It seems we're getting less and less with each chapter but the price isn't going down. It really bums me out. I think not adding a new class or skill line was a smart move, but we could have gotten MANY improvements that we could at least associate with the chapter. Animation improvements for example.

    It still just doesn't make sense to me why this is the main feature... Sure a card game in ESO is kind of a fun idea but it hasn't been executed well. Caravan in FalloutNV was way more fun and way less complicated xD ...
    Still unsure when I am going to come back =/ I love ESO but the state of the game really drove me to play other things... I'm still subbed.... I should probably change that tbh... I'm just such a TES fan and I have enjoy ESO so so so much... I love this game... The server performance is such poo poo and the current PVP looks like something I'd prefer to wait out than play.
    I'm probably going to touch and go at some point in this year after I finish up the story content I have left in swtor, guildwars2, and ff14... but if their server re-architecture they mentioned they are working on gets delayed and/or doesn't work... I'm probably going to make the tough decision of putting ESO down permanently ='(

      It is certainly a tough time to play right now. I'm the same way - I love the Elder Scrolls universe and I have invested a lot of time into ESO. I've met some of my best friends through the game! I also create video content about it, so the thought of putting ESO down for good is something that just seems impossible at the moment. At the same time, I am enduring some really game-breaking issues that make playing a lot less enjoyable than it used to be. Here's to hoping that we can see some performance improvements soon so that we can all get back to playing the game we know and love 🙏

    The idea of a card game sounds neat for light hearted content but this has been the first expansion I've not pre-ordered since playing in morrowind. The various ongoing issues plaguing the game over the years has rubbed away a lot of the luster the game once had

    • @Arttea

      I have the impression that there are a lot of players that share a similar sentiment as the one you've expressed here - that this is the *first* expansion that they are not interested in pre-ordering. Given the fact that this card game is the defining feature, I can definitely see where these players are coming from.

    Deck building card game was the best choice for this imo but also makes it less important for players to hunt for better cards because you're sharing both decks from you and your opponent.
    If you're playing a game like MtG or Pokemon players spend more time refining and caring for their decks because its a more personal strategy so if the long term game for ZOS was to make players spend time gathering more/better cards i dont see it working very well but if the plan was to just make players login and have some fun or kill some time with friends/guildies while not doing raids or dungeons or any other activity this could be big.

    I completely agree I don't think anyone was asking for this 🤣 I do hope people enjoy it so its not a waste.
    But for me who's favorite part of this game is pvp and soloing world bsses and things like the oblivion portals, Its kind of frustrating.
    As much as I agree don't knock it till you try it, I don't log on to a mmo full of character creation, choice of races, outfit creation, build creation and a variety of fantasy open world areas to go do really cool things..... to play a card game.
    I'm so concerned the devs have ran out of ideas but I'm more concerned the problems with the game that could do with fixing have been ignored. Some have been there for years. Makes be really struggle to have confidence in them. But back to the card game 🤣.
    I personally have no interest in this and probably won't play it unless they plant a lead in the card game 🤣 hope it good for everyone that plays it, but for me I'm going to continue the parts of this game that's kept me playing for 7 long years 👍

    I was considering returning to eso after quitting new world, but this reminded me why I quit eso in the first place. New dungeons and zones are ok, but I want new and refreshing ways to play the game. New interesting battlegrounds (like alterac valley from wow), new weapons, new classes, new game mechanics(even replace old and dated ones) and in general new skill lines to grind. Even introducing something simple like a currency you only get from veteran/hardcore dungeons, that can be spent on unique current chapter tier equipment would make me happily grind dungeons for a long time.

    Sorry, I skipped to the end. Could not find an answer to the burning question: Can you make gold paying Tales of Tribute? Does the card game integrate in any way with other game features? For example does it give you housing items? An XP boost? An AP boost? Anything?

    • @Arttea
      @Arttea  2 роки тому

      You can receive materials from winning matches, but I would not consider tot to be a prominent gold-making method because of how long each match lasts. As I mentioned at the end of the video, the mats that you get for winning a match are a nice bonus that you can get if you plan on playing tot anyways, but it’s not an efficient means to make gold, especially compared to the other methods discussed on this channel. At the moment, there are no AP or XP related rewards associated with the game.

    I think ToT could be a surprise success after they improve and polish it. Greymoor and Blackwood had the allure of being recreations of other games. This year there isn't that expectation of seeing Skyrim or Oblivion again so there's not much to hype up the expansion. Only hardcore fans really care that they get to see more of Breton history and location. I feel they should have been ready with something really engaging. I guess something happened that they have fallen a little short this year

So yeah, sorry eso fans. "Why are they adding a card game to eso!?!?" Probably to rope in people like me. Fuck it- just add a completely different minigame to eso for to attract a completely new demographic.
    Also- like how there are duelling hotspots where people gather to fight, I really look forward to the image of a bunch of players crowding into a tavern looking for people to play against.

    • @Arttea

      You know, I thought that that sight would be neat as well, but unfortunately (on the PTS anyways), whenever you engage in a ToT duel with another player, both players are removed from the instance - so other people can not see you. This means that a tavern full of ToT players can not actually be observed by other players, but maybe this will get changed by the time the game goes live.

    Soon enough, players will figure out how to optimize decks to trade wins as fast as possible, assuming you get rewards from just straight up challenging someone. Chances are you will also start to see the same deck or two being played on both sides in ranked, making degenerate into pure rng quite quickly. Honestly, it just feels like they're stalling, both content and player time, away from combat while they revamp the architecture.
