I had so many errors I couldn't even get out the door last time.

I'll try one more time.

ust PC?


Just PC right now. This is the third weekend I have gotten the beta invite and I didn't even bother to play it last time. I have updated the launcher and might turn it on at some point this weekend

This game will be a huge bust inline with SWTOR. It will be F2P by the end of the year and won't have a quarter of the initial players.

I am going to sign up for the PS4 beta to see if I can grab a few weekends on it to see if I have any interest in playing but I'm not paying 15 a month to play any game at this point.

Based on the gameplay videos I've seen I think it looks great and I'm excited. But yeah the monthly fee is a little, meh. But I'll pay for it.

PC.




I haven't been able to play the previous beta's. What's the deal? Game not as expected? Hopefully they've been progressing with each release. Will try and get on tonight/tomorrow sometime.

Have you played any other MMOs? Have you beta'd this? Essentially this is just another generic MMO with the Elder Scrolls name on it. Didn't even feel like any other Elder Scrolls game that I have played.

Already deleted it after the last beta. Will not play again.

I love how every beta invite I get for any game occurs on a weekend where I happen to be swamped with a project for work.

Anyone else underwhelmed by graphics?

Elder Scrolls has always been top notch with graphics that blew me away. I'm not sure this is even as good to look at as Skyrim and I have all the best settings on the graphics.

They did clear up all the problems I had last time. At least I didn't start with 3 errors.

Got back to tamriel and I am taking a break. Nothing exciting or interesting yet.

My buddy who has been in beta since it started up had this complaint. He said something about the game supposedly not being done on the same engine they plan to release with and that the graphics were supposed to be much better. That was back during one of the first beta weekends, so I have no clue if that's still an issue or not.

I was given an invite for this weekend, and promised my friend that I'd give it a shot so we'll see what happens, but I'm really not expecting to play. New MMO's are all the same for me, play for a month and quit and it's just not worth the price tag for that these days, imo.

Does Minecraft count? I never played WoW or anything like that.

I streamed it for a bit. Got boring after about an hour. I had the same problem with Skyrim. There's nothing wrong with the game, it just can't hold me for very long.

It's just not worth how much you have to pay for it. Having a face value to pay PLUS a monthly fee for what they are putting out right now is laughable. Especially when I can play something like TERA for free.

Played their first open beta.. was very underwhelmed by the game, and I've played in lots of betas. It was just not very fun.
