Random boulders and other bizarre additions are appearing in people’s homes.
In Hunding’s Palatial Hall, the seaweed, shells and clutter on the beach are missing. Mathiisen, for example, is missing its windows. Then things got a bit weirdĪs the month went on, several threads opened complaining about other houses in the game. 20 days later, the moderators, customer support reps, and press representatives remained more or less silent. Gina Bruno, Zenimax’s community manager, responded to the complaints, saying she’d look into the issue. Not only that, but players reported that a giant boulder had appeared, making a section of the house impossible to reach.
The serene location and peaceful atmosphere were broken when it began raining through the solid rock ceiling. One of the most expensive houses in the game (13,000 crowns or about $130), Earthtear Cavern is a fan favorite, and one of the most unique places to live. What’s Happening?Ībout 20 days ago, players on the ESO forums reported some bizarre changes to one of the in-game houses: Earthtear Cavern. If nothing else, consider this a case study on how not to communicate with your fans. This article is about the madness that comes from silence and disinformation. But that’s not quite what this article is about. It may not be a big deal and it may not effect the way you play the game. At the end of the day, the issue at hand may not resonate with you. The following is a series of confusing, conflicting, and nonsensical events, all stemming from an issue that didn’t need to be blown this far out of proportion. But rarely have I seen a company react less professionally in response to a relatively minor issue. A relatively popular MMO by Zenimax Online Studios, ESO is no stranger to controversy. The kind of weird that’s making players feel like they’ve wasted their money. Granted, a world with hermaphroditic demi-gods and shapeshifting cannibal wood elves is bound to be a little weird, but this is the bad kind of weird.
Something weird is going on in THE ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE.
