I'm curious how this one will be. I dug the last one, but it was so damn long that I never came close to finishing. I'll be on board with this one though most likely

Don't consider this a game like the other Elder Scrolls. It is an MMO.

Well crap. I hate MMOs. They were great when I was in college and had tons of time on my hands. A job, wife and kids pretty much ruins that

I'm a huge ES fan but will probably not touch ESOnline. Everything I like about the series was at the pinnacle in Morrowind and I am not willing to pay one cent for an ES MMO. I have never understood those that wanted a multiplayer Elder Scrolls, I assume they were filthy casual fans.

I didn't care for ESO, but I am not an Elder Scrolls fan.

My 3 buddies who are ES fans all love ESO online.

I would say don't just say screw it am not trying it, just because you are afraid of saying, "I play an MMO"

I don't know if they fixed ESO for consoles, but it was decimated by reviewers. From what I remember reading, they tore it a new a-hole.

The game is much different than at launch. I played for about two months then became bored with it, but they have since introduced the champion system which greatly improved and enhanced endgame progression. Pvp kills also now grant 50% more xp which incentivizes cyrodiil(pvp zone) action.

They also implemented the justice system so you can now murder/steal from NPC's with bounty penalties if you get caught. One of the biggest improvements are the bug fixes that really hampered the launch experience. It still has some bug issues but it's a far better game than it was this time last year.

Loved morrowwind and oblivion. Missed out on skyrim. Not sure how this will be but I'll have three days to see if it's something worthwhile.

I was in every beta for almost a year and bought it at launch. I quit at level 16. The gameplay wasn't the problem as much as the stability of the game itself. It was clearly rushed to launch without adequately testing their MegaServer architecture enough.

Until 1.6 dropped, I hadn't touched the game since, and now I play regularly. It's still not perfect, but it's almost completely different than what I played in the beta at launch. The changes are all small, but they really add up to major improvement. I've seen it get re-reviewed, and most of the fresh reviews are positive. As merciless as gamers are, I see that as a sign of it having new life.

Absolutely. At launch, there was no punishment for looting any and every single thing out there. Now, there's a bounty system, which I think is a major plus. The game's UO influence is becoming extremely apparent.

One last thing to any new players, pick up every Skyshard you see. They're crystals with a beam of light coming from the sky. Every three you collect gives you a skill point.
