What's new 2025?

I am considering coming back to the game. Are they going to upgrade and re-haul CHAT system? Buttons for joining quest, help with boss, join me for awhile, let's do a raid, etc.?

So don't spend $139.99 today to get year ESO+ membership!?!

They have published just the plan for the next DLC and the next update (45). There will be a reveal of 'seasons' in April.

Until then, the only thing we know is that ZOS are not doing big bang releases anymore. Chapters will become Seasons and this supposedly mean more frequent releases of smaller bites of content. Some people don't like this idea, personally I prefer it provided ZOS do it well. For me the Chapters were bland, cookie-cutter releases, and the fact they were once a year meant I only played ESO around Chapter release time, then dropped it for 9 months each year.

I am hoping the more frequent releases keep the game more consistently alive, but we won't know how this will play out until April. IMO not worth a big sub, maybe 3 months to see what April brings then decide.

Thats just the dream of minimum wage "worker" caste; High pay - No work. Which results with increased subscription costs and halves the frequency of expansions/updates.

Lazy Clowns, all of them. (I am safe to insult them because im not a CEO yet).

They are now basically doing what Guild Wars 2 have been doing for the past 2-3 years. Barely any content, I'm talking 15 minute playable content every 4 months and what they get is very low quality.

ESO is richer though and won't make a humiliating content cadence like that. Poor guys at GW2 still didn't get voice acting on the latest dlc and they are blaming it on some voice strikes that happened which wasn't even relevant to the game. Months later, with no strike in sight, they still didn't add voices in which makes it clear they just didn't want to pay money.
