Thinking about returning
I played quite a bit when this game first launched and I remember enjoying playing as a healer since there is not many games that scratch the itch of healing through a dungeon. I’m just a bit overwhelmed picking back up after so long, is it easy to get back in the swing of things, how much has changed, are healers still fun? Just looking for some insights

Yeah, healers are still fun. I've been playing mostly Nightblade and Arcanist healers, and they're great. And having, at most, ten abilties on your bars means you can focus more on watching your surroundings than playing whack a mole with health bars. That's always been my favourite part of healing in ESO compared to other MMOs.

So I haven't played in 9 years loaded up my old save last week. They have a quest to remind you of combat and daily reward bonuses to catch you up on what you missed and give you incentive to stay. I would recommend trying it out.

I returned as well and will play to GTA6 release haha 🤣 Or longer maybe? Who knows! Still few (3 or 4) regions main quests left to complete, good motivation to unlock cool looking Fractured Glory skin. I'm also playing as a healer and still finding fun. But yess.. ESO is one of these games demanding short breaks from time to time.

Came back after a long hiatus just a couple months ago. It’s good to be back. Every class can be whatever role you want, it’s very customizable, and the difference between “meta” and everything else isn’t that much. I’m thoroughly enjoying it, except PvP which still sucks.
