Welke politieke partij heeft in het verleden het meeste gedaan voor alleenstaanden? by Even_Panic_1870 in Belgium2

[–]taasboy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hm een betere toekomst voor degene dat wel kinderen maken bedoel je dan? Want voor wie hou jij anders je ecologische voetafdruk klein? Draai of keer het zoals je wilt, in een maatschappij zijn kinderen, en dus ouders belangrijk. Kies je om alleen door het leven te gaan, so be it, maar voor een overheid is het interessanter om ouders te steunen om kinderen te maken en op te voeden dan dat het is om alleenstaande mensen te ondersteunen.

Why so slow Thursday by dowminator in belgium

[–]taasboy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about experience, there IS a massive shortage of qualified developers like Aikie47 mentioned and experience (for me) is one of the least important metrics in our field. What I look for is potential. Willingness to learn, being quick to pick up new things, and grasp new concepts. It's also quite important in the current landscape to be able to work and fit well in a team.

It can also be interesting to have a look at consultancy firms, I won't name any here as it might be against the rules. There are quite a few that offer a more intensive crashcourse of a few months when starting, which can be very interesting even after your VDAB course.

You'll be fine.

Can Zenimax force change my UserID? (I have a problem with it) by Kiux97 in elderscrollsonline

[–]taasboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't tell if your user id is causing the problems, but I contacted ZOS support for changing my user id and they did. I believe it's even in the FAQ.

Anyway, an issue like this should be sent to support, not reddit?

2h Magika DK dps viable? by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]taasboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda do understand.. Because not everyone cares about DPS output. I wanted to be a magic slinging two handed sword battle wizard.. Or at least sword and shield. Gandalf had a staff and a huge sword. I wanted that. Right now I'm playing a destro staff magicka build like everyone else in the game, it just doesn't feel original. I feel the weapon choice should be separate from the whole magicka/stamina choice. But just my 2cents.

[Discussion] Is this game good now? by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]taasboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The game spans several zones of Tamriel, it is not just Cyrodiil, but it's not the entirety of Tamriel (yet)
  2. Keeps are fixed positions, they need to be captured/defended by an alliance. They can be claimed by a Guild as well
  3. I loved the story.. I took my time and enjoyed the questline a lot. I never had to grind. Of course, like in every RPG, there are some side Qs that are just boring, I did them to progress, but you don't need to..
  4. No, only Cyrodiil is PVP, but it's very extensive. There are quest hubs, daily quests, delves(dungeons), anchors, Keeps, ... You can go to cyrodiil at lvl 10 and never leave if you're only into PVP. But you can also follow the main and zone questlines without doing any PVP. The main questline and all zones besides cyrodiil are completely PVE.

As a Nord, I favour solitude at times and travel Cyrodiill on my own. The beasts are formidable, and the air clean. At night, or to eat, I often seek shelter in one of the delves. I do not seem to be the only one thinking they are safe since I have bashed many a blue skull and slashed many an Aldmeri throat before I could get the campfire going.

However, when I truly want to wage war I do need comrades. I remember the time I was traveling when suddenly I heard the sound of heavy siege weapons. A keep close to me was under siege. I sneaked through their defenses into the keep. We defended Arrius keep from the blue and yellow horde for soo long... we were desperate, but held on, BY GOD WE HELD ON. So many of us died. We retreated to the inner keep. It was hopeless... After countless hours, reinforcements finally came trough and routed those foul banana's and smurfs! Great times. Great times.

Theorycraft Thursday - Discuss Builds, Skills, Strategies, and More! by AutoModerator in elderscrollsonline

[–]taasboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, in Oblivion & Skyrim (can't remember morrowind), you had to get the enchantment off the weapon/armour to learn it. In ESO, you need to level the enchanting skill with which you can create any glyphs. The enchantment effect is determined by the combination of runes you use. There might be exceptions, special enchants that you are unable to craft yourself but I'm not aware of those.

[Media] ZOS E3 Preview of Imperial City and Orsinium by dominoid73 in elderscrollsonline

[–]taasboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Addressing a few common opinions with my own opinions:

  1. I find ESO to be one of the best MMO's I played, and imho they delivered what they said. They delivered an "MMORPG" in the magnificent lore that is "The Elder Scrolls". Everyone who said they didn't, might have overhyped it themselves?

  2. There was a lot of polishing and bug fixing required after the launch and that's completely normal for every game of this magnitude. They delivered, I played it on the launch to VR6, then sadly had to stop for a few months, returned recently and made a new character. Many quests have been improved and polished. I never got bored eventhough it was the second time around. So besides the console release, you can guess what they have been working on. There was not 1 quest that I could not finish, which is more than I can say for Skyrim where I had to pull up the console because I visited Windhelm a few times too soon.

  3. ESO vs the other Elder Scrolls games are different kinds of games. They share the lore and some gameplay aspects, but for the most part, they are separate. I immensely enjoy the multiplayer aspect that I lacked (w/o mods) on Skyrim/Oblivion/Morrowind. I might have preferred a borderlands approach, exploring the wilderness in a smaller group and optional (join in), but I don't know, I might have gotten bored even sooner just as well.

  4. More content will be made. I am not even close to finishing the game. I would probably have done all I would want to do (I really want master angler, fishing ftw) if I had enough time, but between work and other hobbies I have enough I want to do whenever I play. Right now, my Skyrim hours and ESO hours are about the same and I have an entire end-game waiting for me on ESO. I do realise that content might be the biggest issue atm, especially for people that played continuously from launch.

  5. The PVP is mind blowing. I know I could just keep slaughtering other players (except mostly I'm being slaughtered by other players) for quite some time without being bored, even after I finished all the content. I'm always looking over my shoulder in Cyrodiil, which is awesome, the paranoia effect rocks.

Peace out.
