I hate to say it, but that post is right on the money. there used to be a game that did action combat incredibly well before they started doing their own strings of reworks that for me absolutely killed the game (cause not only they made combat less fun, but they systematically removed a crapton of playable content) - Neverwinter. what ESO has is... lets just say thank goodness its solo friendly with easy overland. cause it allows me to essentially ignore the hell out of meta and play actual diverse builds with lots of class abilities utilized within them, even though those builds severely underperform compared to meta. because I find it more fun. its too bad that the game discourages my kind of fun should I want to group for anything, ever outside of super extra casual occasional normal mode runs with 2 of my guilds where the only requirement is to be a warm non afk body that at least attempts to follow mechanics.
