It&#8217;s been so long that I don&#8217;t even remember what addons I was using at the time. I don&#8217;t know how to get on my horse. I don&#8217;t know how to fight. I&#8217;m too scared to really say anything (because I don&#8217;t want to be seen as a new player).<br \/>\nI think I remember having specific keybinds, having specific skills, having specific abilities&#8230;and that&#8217;s all I know. What I chose has completely been erased from my mind. Instead of feeling excited to come back, it feels scary. All of these addons I collected, I don&#8217;t know how I had them, or what their configs were set to.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t even know where the hell I am. .. Oh wait, I&#8217;m in Stormheim in Ravenspire. Oy. I need to find a Guild..somehow. Maybe they can somehow get me up to speed (at least how to setup my char). Also I wound up outside of a small castle. I&#8217;m seeing people that are.. Level 560?! How in the fuck?<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t know how to drag addons around. All of this is alien to me. Someone please help me before I lose my mind.<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nAfter much scratching of my head, I finally figured out how to move addon windows around (the Numpad Enter key. Also the Numpad keys control the five abilities on your hotbar). I also figured out how to move the world map around (holding the Left mouse button), and how to utilize my horse for faster travel. I also went all the way to Davon&#8217;s Watch of not knowing where I need to go to do this &#8216;A Friend in Need&#8217; quest to what I was told is unlocking the ability of getting player housing.<br \/>\nAlso, I found a Guild in hopes to help me re-learn how the game works. Unfortunately, it&#8217;s a Trading guild instead of a &#8216;help returning player out&#8217; guild. Though, this guild <em>might<\/em> help me with getting higher gear (I&#8217;m Champ Level 150 on my Sorcerer).<br \/>\nThey seem like a nice group. One of them even helped me do what I could had easily solo&#8217;d myself (if I remembered how I specced my char). The person also kind of helped me set my Champion points. The reason why I say &#8216;kind of&#8217; is, this person didn&#8217;t know my class and spec that well (none of them did at that time.. I&#8217;m hoping this changes when I log in tomorrow). As a backup plan, I asked <a href=\"https:\/\/forums.elderscrollsonline.com\/en\/discussion\/362790\/build-champ-point-help-request-ch-151-nord-destro-sorc\/p1?new=1\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> on the forum if they could help me. I feel they were able to before.<br \/>\nI just gotta make sure I actually <u>listen<\/u> to their advice and do what they say, and not feel like &#8220;wow, that&#8217;s a lot to remember&#8221;. Though I fear they&#8217;re going to go down the road of &#8220;you&#8217;ll have to experiment on how you want your class to feel&#8221;.<br \/>\nExperimentation takes time, and I just wanna play the freakin&#8217; game here!<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s going to happen tomorrow. I don&#8217;t really have high hopes (mainly for the fact I don&#8217;t see anything I need to &#8216;shoot&#8217; for). However, yesterday I was able to complete that quest..and got what feels like a storm shelter inside of an inn as a &#8216;house&#8217;. I also learned about player housing, it&#8217;s kind of like the way it is in Wildstar. You can either purchase, or build furniture for yourself. The Guildie I was with said you can also find it as drops from killing enemies. Though at first, she said they come from &#8216;battles&#8217;. I&#8217;m thinking &#8220;are you fucking serious.. PvP?!&#8221; Thankfully that&#8217;s not the case. She claims that she got a few wall pictures from helping in a Dolman (even though the main questline is complete, they still exist.. which kind of kills the immersion).<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t know how you make furniture. I tried it myself, and it claims I didn&#8217;t have anything to start with. I assume you just gather wood or something to make the basic furniture. When in a house, you can place furniture anywhere you want in the house by hitting F5. You can also teleport to your house for free, anywhere you are. Pretty cool.<\/p>\n<p>Also, that whole &#8220;Level 560&#8221; thing, I didn&#8217;t realize this at first, but that was their Champion level (like myself) that you start acquiring after completing the main storyline.<br \/>\nAnd finally, I discovered what the Morrowind &#8216;expansion&#8217; covers, and it&#8217;s just that large island that Red Mountain sits on. It isn&#8217;t all of the area. $40 for that? Pfft. This thing truly is a joke (and should had come with ESO+ for free). But I&#8217;m done beating that dead horse. No amount of bitching is going to reverse their decision (and I&#8217;ll probably never know the real reason they went with this dick move against their subscribers).<br \/>\nI&#8217;m just glad I can still play this game without a subscription (or being forced to get this thing). At least they&#8217;re kind with that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow has it freakin&#8217; been a LONG time!
