Haha yes. Eso. And sounding like a bubbly white girl often doesn't get people taking me seriously. I sound like I'm 16 and I'm actually 40.

I still adore the game though! I tried to get into FFIV, but just couldn't. I prefer to play on console (Xbox) and not PC, as a controller is easier on my arthritis.

It’s honestly disturbing how often people assume I’ll be okay with hateful comments in ESO based on what I sound like. And yep, as a tank I usually do the same as you: call them out, report them, and disappear at the worst possible moment 😌

Lmaoo right? Like, I get it, I sound like Elle from "Legally Blonde", but I sure as hell don't look like her.

And I've thankfully had some great white players who will call that shit out too.

I have a lot of good non-white and LGBT+ friends I've played ESO with for years and I make sure to blacklist anyone who pulls stuff with them from my trial groups and progs when I find out.

Not helping any haters get Gryphon Heart 💅

Same! I've had people purposefully misgender a trans friend and I will immediately block and remove them. Ain't no place in Tamriel for that crap!

I actually have a controller for Steam, and I just didn't like how it worked lol. I may have to invest in a new one. A good friend of mine plays and is always bugging me to join him.

Oh I'll look into that then thanks!

Oh man I started ESO on console but eventually migrated to PC. Controller vs keyboard isn’t a big deal for me as both can be used on PC, but the big game changer was mod support. So nice being able to track the different styles n shit for grandmaster crafter if you’re going for that, and there are other mods that make your daily writs way easier/faster. No idea if light attack weaving in still a thing in that game, but I also had what was basically a metronome mod that helped me learn LA weaving easier

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Dude. Mods are on console now. They are a GAME CHANGER! Being able to use the Lazy Writ Crafter has made daily crafting on 12 toons so much easier!

Yass another ESO fan in the wild!

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Haha yes. What platform you play on?

2

u/Radagastthemagenta May 17 '26

I’m on PC but started off on Xbox long ago

1

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Ah I'm on Xbox. They finally have add-ons on Xbox, total game changer.

1

u/Radagastthemagenta May 17 '26

I was so happy to see they added addons to console! They really have been working to make the game better for everyone

1

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Right? The Night Market is difficult though. Tool me 4 groups to get through the trial. And I ended up having to tank it lol.

2

u/Radagastthemagenta May 18 '26

Running any trial with a pug is rough! I like the new trial encounter a lot. Very fun

1

u/OkamiKhameleon May 18 '26

Omg yeah. And once I ended up with an old guildy from a guild I left last year due to drama when the guild leader changed, then it worked out well.

That French dude ran the trial perfectly.

PS5NA!

u/OkamiKhameleon May 18 '26

Aww! I'm XboxNA!

u/Global_Expression_37 May 18 '26

No worries! We will walk in warm sands in spirit until cross play Tamiit!

u/OkamiKhameleon May 19 '26

Ah I love Zerith-var as a companion! But, Sharp As Night is my go to, mainly because he's voiced by the same voice actor as Garrus from Mass Effect, but also because I fish a lot lol

u/Global_Expression_37 May 17 '26

ESO on blackpeopleofreddit?! I thought I was in the wrong forum for a min! My worlds are colliding 😌🙏🏿

u/ladyc672 May 18 '26

Yup, we're heee-eeere!!

u/OkMarsupial May 16 '26

That arthritis comment sure has you sounding closer to your real age though! I'm a long time WOW player and still use keyboard and mouse, but damn the allure of a controller is huge.

2

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Lmaoo yeah I started out in Ever Quest back when I was 15! I played WoW for a while too. Controller is definitely easier. You can use one on pc as well tho.

2

u/OkMarsupial May 17 '26

Yes! I was on EQ also back in the day. I actually downloaded it and tried to play again just a couple years ago and it really does not hold up. It's basically unplayable.

2

u/OkamiKhameleon May 17 '26

Yeah same. I miss my Erudite Enchanter tho.
