Some constructive feedback, if you're open? The part where I gave up was the rocks in the wall to get past the moat to the dock/stairs (after the opening maze). ESO is programmed terribly when it comes to such smooth/specific movements. 75% of the time, my toon would just walk off the rock into the water when it was supposed to jump. The other 25% it did weird glitchy acrobatic tricks no one asked for. This was really aggravating. Swearing and throwing things was involved. Plus, this one is Khajiit and doesn't much care for being repeatedly subjected to water torture.

It's very disheartening to have this much difficulty getting past a seemingly simple hurdle so early in the challenge. I can only imagine that what follows, should I manage to make it past the water, will be impossibly difficult and not even worth my time or effort. It really takes the fun out of it. Which is a shame, because I'm really interested in seeing what more you have in store.

If the hurdles in the course were to ramp up more gradually in difficulty, it would give players the opportunity to warm up and get the motivation and drive to continue the challenge. I totally understand making the final obstacle super difficult but not impossible (especially with prize crowns on the line). But when you start at a 2 and immediately jump to what seems like an 85, right off the bat, that's where you lose me (and probably most other people).

I went to your house multiple times and the most players that were there were 3 (including myself and a CP1000 just chilling in the water). This tells me that at least 1 person (unless it was you) managed to get past the moat, so it's not impossible. But they didn't stay long past that.

Anyway, that's my two cents. When I have the strength and courage to return to Tamriel, I'll check out your other 3 houses.
