A day ago I said ESO TU was “my MMO of choice”. The devs actually tried to make me regret that statement yesterday…
There was a patch, and usually I have no issues with getting a patch. This one, I kind of am. It’s telling me how it doesn’t know what version of ESO TU I’m running. I tried to repair, it won’t let me repair. Sometimes it will, yet the error persists.
Yet for some reason, the game works just fine even with the error. This is so weird. Though I do hope after I get done typing in this blog post, this stroke of luck will continue for me.
.
Another thing I wanted to state that’s kind of relevant to the second part of the story. I joined a guild (named “Enlightened Alliance”). They claimed “all player skills are welcome” and seemed really friendly in their recruitment message. So I thought “What the hell” and joined them.
I also asked them if they knew of this second bug I was having that involved quest hubs. This bug seems to not give me the achievement when I complete all the known quests in the area, and also claims I didn’t even do the quest. They say they don’t have this bug (and also everyone I spoke to in zone chat, didn’t have this issue).
Due to this, there’s only one thing I could blame; the addons I was using. The thing is, even when I disable all of them.. it doesn’t help. The damage has already been done. The only thing I could do is ask for help via a ticket, and have them reset the quests. Yet this really wasn’t needed, and the “problem” was never a problem.
A few people said “there has to be a followup quest in the area that’s keeping you from completing the thing”. I did find a mod that shows all incomplete quests. Tried it out, and it actually showed me that they’re right.
I completed these quests…and I got the achievements and the “you helped these people!” messages as I was supposed to in the first place. I knew it wasn’t my mods that caused it. They cannot (and aren’t allowed to) change anything about the game. They aren’t like mods in Skyrim, where you can cheat-unlock a locked door (and have an uber bow with powerful arrows that can 1-shot even Alduin).
So yeah. Gotta be careful what I say is “my game” or “my MMO”, as it can downright make me regret my words.
