    Mediocre MMORPG not because of graphics ( that are bad and boring style by the way) but because of so POOR and boring gameplay mechanics.

    Not even worth it as a free game. An example of how to ruin a great game ( Skyrim , Oblivion, ..) because of not following their main mechanics.

    Also the people everywhere doing the same "unic" quests ruins the atmosphere of "you are the chosen one"..

    It's not the best MMORPG, because we all know it's World of Warcraft, but it's a good game!

    A mediocre MMORPG that wasn't even as good as SWTOR or TERA (lol). A complete failure by Bethesda to compete in the MMORPG genre.

To be able to enter an unexplored area, after previously leaving the game for 3 years, this is the type of fun I wanted. Epic crafting system, really good character customization, and social interaction. Thanks for welcoming me back, ESO.… Expand

    "Как же эта игра пытается вас на*бать"
    Первые впечатления, как всегда положительные. Практически тот же Скайрим, только немного упрощённый и с небольшими ограничениями. TES Online, в отличие от других донатных помоек, делает умнее и в первые часы даёт расправить крылья.

    Первые впечатления, как всегда положительные. Практически тот же Скайрим, только немного упрощённый и с небольшими ограничениями. TES Online, в отличие от других донатных помоек, делает умнее и в первые часы даёт расправить крылья. Как только немного осваиваетесь, начинает душить и вымаливать последнюю копейку и при этом наговаривая:
    - В Скайриме и других RPG ты мог бесконечно собирать ингредиенты ? Ой, у нас же они имеют ощутимый вес. Неудобно ? КУПИ ПОДПИСКУ !
    - Играя с Скайрим и выполняя определённое задание, по пути, ты мог встретить множество путников, выслушать их, записать себе их проблемы (квесты) и когда находил время, выполнял и их. Таким образом ты мог брать и записывать себе бесконечное количество заданий и выполнять их в любом порядке.
    В этом же ПОМОЙНОМ ВЕДРЕ ONLINE, МАКСИМУМ сколько вы сможете записать квэстов - ЭТО 25. 25, КАРЛ !!!
    - Да. в TES Online огромный мир. Быстрые перемещения, как в любой адекватной игре, есть ? Да. НО ОНИ ПЛАТНЫЕ ! Т.е. вы расплачиваетесь своим игровым золотом, которое добывали потом и кровью. МАЛО ТОГО, чем чаще вы перемещаетесь, тем дороже становятся перемещения (со временем цена падает).
    Возможно подумали. Да я прокачаюсь и буду отдавать одну копейку, как за билет в городском автобусе, а *УЙ ТЕБЕ ! Прокачиваясь, дорожает и минимальная цена за перемещения.
    В ИТОГЕ: Когда ты играешь, все эти проблемы, в связке, ставят тебя раком. Особенно, когда большинство крупных кество, происходит, по ходу действия на многих материках. Начал в Даггерфелле, закончил в Скайриме, что бы сдать нужно поехать в Морровинд. В ЭТОТ ЖЕ момент, что бы продолжить (сюжетно) это задание, вам взять квест у мужика, который стоит рядом, а *УЙ ТЕБЕ, у тебя журнал полон. Точнее кусок туалетной бумаги, раз герой не может записать более 25-ти заданий.
    Решение, которое предлагают разрабы, очевидно: Не хочешь страдать ? ДОНАТЬ !
    Обидно, что игроки не могут увидеть другого решения: УЙТИ !
    И это только верхушка айсберга проблем...

    The combat is too dull. The skill system is too simple, only some handful skills that is usuable. To kill a monster, just keep spamming the same skills over and over again. This makes the combat aged fast. It only lasts for 2 hours long of actual fun, then I have to repeat the same way to kill something because there's not enough skill diversity in the game.

    Feeling bored after playing it for few hours because what I can do in the game is that doing some fetch quests and get the xp to level up. Killing monster gives me nothing useful, the xp is also neglectable when I am at a higher level. The item drop on the boss is laughable for getting all white and green items in a 15 minutes boss fight. Suprisingly the xp from the boss is also the same as I kill some weaker monsters.

    When I level up, I just don't understand why the attribute point can only increase the base stat instead of increasing the attack power, attack speed and such. There's so much potential content in the game, but everything seems so shallow without any depth to attract me to keep playing.    … Expand

The sound with 7.1 is amazing and there is much to do. I needed more than 300 hours to complete all quests of the main game (without DLCs) and there are so many DLCs out by now that you can almost tripple that! The pvp is huge and there is a nice learning curve for raids when you're willing to learn mechanics. Expect it to be hard though.

    It is a very good game but do NOT expect it to be like Skyrim! It's a common mistake people make.    … Expand

    I'll start of by admitting that I am not huge into MMOs, but this is game just feels so bland and empty. I came to this game because my friends and I all loved Skyrim, but literally all the elements of what made Skyrim great (the story, the detail of the setting, the beautiful music) are all not here. I am struggling to play this game. At lvl 8 and it all just feels meh.

Their content is just reskinned zones with fetch quests and a few must haves to stay in the competitive loop. You just feel used for your money when you are paying $15 a month and you have to buy a $60 expansion every year that ends up being free if you buy the chapter next year. They only screw over their loyal base of players. The pvp used to be kinda fun but they completely screwed up the class identity and the pvp content has been the same for 6 years.… Expand

ESO has always been pay to win... unrestricted storage, access to all DLCs as soon as they're released if you pay a monthly fee. In other words you have to pay 15$/month if you don't want to run weaker suboptimal builds and use your characters as storage banks. I've found ways around this but it's very tedious. It gets worse, though. ESO also changed how loot works to make it much more grindy. Now you have to run the same dungeon up to 30 times (more if you're unlucky) if you decide to use a weapon that you can't craft. There's no other way to get loot that's dropped in dungeons and only the final boss drops weapons. Even players from eastern MMOs would consider this level of grind inhumane.

    The worst part is recently they changed TOS to allow them to sell your user data. And in usual bethesda anti-consumer fashion (think fallout 76) they are very secretive about it. And if you ask too many questions they will ban you (again, think fallout 76). Pretty sure I'm still banned from posting about this on official forums but it doesn't really matter. Any post on their forums that hurts their bottom line immediately gets locked and deleted anyway... I mean, it's bethesda so why would you expect anything else?    … Expand

You couldn’t put this game down and come back to it after a year and use the same load out despite after a certain point all gear is the same level to wear. The developers have never listened to their own community complaints but instead do little streams that they refuse to tackle actual issues brought up in the chat.

    I think the dev team is full of tools, so I might be biased.

    However, you definitely should not buy the game or expansions over a full game, like the guy that asked whether Elden Ring or expansion purchase was a better idea. The expansions are very anemic and lack content, despite what people say (fanboys).

    Objectively, the game is largely a DPS race. DPS determines almost everything in the game.

    Combat is terrible, esp. PvP. Combat is lifeless and boring, and actually too slow. Most bosses are just hp sponges that soak up damage that you do with little threat or surprises when you know the mechanics, making it formulaic and boring. There isn't really much to pressure the DPS and make the sweat or make DPS skillful besides learning how to "cancel" animatioins -- the less said about that, the better, as it's something you either do and get the DPS increase or don't and possibly flounder.

    PvP this patch amounts to "get Oakensoul" or get toasted. Anyone saying otherwise doesn't know how to build PvP builds nor PvE ones, and I have already started releasing all of the ones on PTS that are nasty and will ruin PvP with one shot or "god-mode" builds. Only a matter of time before you need that ring in PvE to join a trial or PvP to compete.

    PvP could be good if they bothered to increase more trickplay and counterplay, instead of making it a stupid contest between build stats and holding the block button. Instead they NERF counterplay, they NERF trick play, and they make PvP entirely stat-based and, once again, a DPS race of sorts.

    PvP on the game is extremely bad and skilless this patch, if you want to get the game to PvP, don't.

    Housing, outfit system, etc. are one of the game's stronger points, yet they don't add enough customization to hairs every patch and instead focus on housing that's out of reach for most players with their head screwed on (a digital house for over 100 dollars, then you need ESO+ to get double the space to actually furnish it. THEN some items are only available in the cash shop for furnishing...can't make it up!). It's all setup to make you consume, consume, consooooooooooooom.

    Where ESO is weak, it's weak, and where it's strong and could gain uniqueness, it's neglected or going the wrong direction. It's sad this game is being killed by a totally aloof dev and management team.

    It's sad, because I like the game, but the management is very bad and I don't see the game lasting much longer unless they either wake up and start listening to player feedback or add surprises.

    My guess, they won't do either because they don't care to, or still think they don't have to answer to stakeholders other than themselves (shareholders, and PLAYERS too).

    Great game for those who like to explore and enjoy well written stories and quests. The world is HUGE, even just the base game will give you months of playtime.

The ESO plus subscription gives access to all DLC content plus crowns that can be used in the crown store(ESO version of IRL cash shop) and a craft bag that holds an infinite amount of crafting materials.

    ESO relies heavily on internet content creators to explain the game to players and there is very little info in game about how things work. This makes it confusing for some who expect the game to explain as you play. But there are plenty of great online resources to help you, like UESP, Alcast, Deltia's gaming, Xynode, Hack the Minotaur, Lucky Ghost, ESO-U, Brah we got this, Skinny Cheeks and many more. There are also guilds you can join with players willing to help and explain as you go along.

    The game caters mainly to beginners who are still levelling and exploring, and casual players who enjoy the stories and the questing. The world is beautiful, especially if you have a modern PC with a decent graphics card. There is a lot of artwork done in the world, and just looking around at the environments is a joy in and of itself. It's easy to loose yourself for hours just exploring in this game.

    Once you have levelled out a character and played through the vet DLC content, which is some of the hardest in the game, that's when it starts getting more tricky. There is not much you can do to progress as a player except for score pushing(going for world rankings etc) or PvP battles. With each new chapter coming out there is usually two new dungeons(4-man content) and one trial(12-man content) added, but beyond that there is not much an experienced player can look forward to. The overland questing, which is great and very nice for beginners, is simply mind numbingly easy for experienced players with high level characters. The content is still great, but there is no way to make the fighting challenging as there is no difficulty setting to make overland questing harder.

    So overall this is a beautiful and fun game that will keep you busy for at least about a year of playing, but as you get into end game it will be difficult to find challenging content to keep you interested in the long run. If ZOS ever adds a difficulty setting so experienced players can enjoy all new content the same way beginners can, I'd give it a 10 out of 10, but because it lacks this setting I give it a 9 out of 10.    … Expand

I'm talking about ostentatious idiocy and trolling. Bethesda not doing anything to put an end to this all these 7 years this ESO has existed. More worse. ZOS( ZeniMax Support) help the scoundrels and trolls when they provoke players to respond and write denunciations about them. And ZOS employees receive their money for blocking game accounts due to the fact that some player said something personally in a private chat to some other player. It is enough to tell the troll in the game that he is a troll, and ZOS immediately block the game account of the one who was not afraid to say out loud what is obvious. This is stealing. If ZOS block game account, they DO NOT RETURN your money. What is the connection between the money paid for the game and a private conversation between two adults in a private chat? I pay $ 500 when buying this product 18+ and lose it due to provocation and trolling. This is how they steal money from people. ZOS wrote a letter to me(automatic mailing robot in response to my complaint about trolling by another player) the following: "If another player said something bad to you (in your opinion), you can add it to the ignore list. If you see harsh words, turn on the automatic blocking of swear words in the game." ZOS made it clear to me that this is how they solve these problems. When I write to ZOS a complaint about the actual trolling in ESO, they send me a spit in my face. ZOS send me a robot letter, where they give advice on how to behave with moral monsters and scum.
    ZOS help the trolls in ESO, that's why they hide their names and positions in ZeniMax because they are afraid to meet me on the street one on one, where they will have to return the money that ZeniMax stole from me when blocked my paid account, just for the fact that I expressed my dissatisfaction with the fact that ESO is propagating abomination. I am sure that ZOS are trolling this game themselves in order to provide themselves with a "job". ZeniMax security service is committed to eliminating threats to "business". And the threat to business is public voice over what you do. And when I say out loud that Bethesda are creating problems in this MMO, ZOS began to fight me. Roughly and effectively, they set provocateurs trolls on me. This happens in ZeniMax "Official Forum". This happens in ESO.
    ZeniMax has created an MMO(product and services on the Internet) that promotes perversions and pathology. Necrophilia,satanism,sexual perversions,drugs. Their bosses receive orders from politicians to reduce the population on Earth. They kill people, kill the health of their soul and mind. What I mean? Here's a simple example. You have made it possible in this game when a player puts on the outer shell of a corpse, and in this form is in the reality of the game among other players. This is a product from in-game Store, the name of this product is Skeleton Polymorph outer shell. There are many such examples. "Scary Clown" shell, or Mount "Rainbow Unicorn", and many others, this is a monstrous abomination created by and for devils anti-humans.
    I am a healthy adult, raised in a traditional strict family, in the correct religious and moral traditions. And I openly say that Bethesda are creating a product that can only please psychopaths and freaks who are actively trying to change this world, making it as ugly and scary as they are. In fact, they create the conflict situations yourself in this game. This is an MMO game. Players kill each other here. All know that. This means ESO is bought by those who want to kill people. That's why they came here.
    Here's what's going on. I meet in the game location another player who has put on a suit of a rotten corpse. Yes. These are the kind of players that walk in your game. And ZeniMax call it "Halloween Party". What kind of holiday is this? It is an abomination that causes anger and nausea, it is a walking corpse, it is a spit in the face of Nature and God. And my normal reaction to that is to destroy this abomination. But they have calculated it all in advance. This is provocation. They have deliberately created this situation. They know perfectly well that walking corpses are an abomination that causes hatred among normal people. And they deliberately create this to incite hatred and conflict in ESO. And when this happens, ZeniMax takes the side of the devils, and block the normal person's game account. I already wrote a letter to Bethesda about this. They are waging a war against normal people. They have created a "troll factory", ESO is a garbage dump, a ghetto for drug addicts, maniacs and freaks and other evil spirits, this is a stinking grave.

    If you like the elder scrolls series then you'll going to love this game. This game has a lot of single player content that I question its legitimacy as a MMO.

This game has a lot of single player content that I question its legitimacy as a MMO. With that being said, this game has a lot of multiplayer content to consider it self as a MMO. There's a ton of dungeons, PVP contents and raids. The main highlight of this game is how flexible it is to theorycraft the best class for your needs. Yes there's the usual class but you can achieve skills from other NPCs too. Even with a level cap, ESO incentivizes you to explore the world to get skyshards and do single player quest or delve quest to get those precious skill points. The monetization of this game is what you expect in a MMO this age. There's the cash shop where you can find exp boost, costumes and other cosmetic items. There's also a premium membership for $15 per month and the game lets you unlock past expansion and a larger loot bag for your crafting ingredients if you're the hoarder type of player.
    Now let's talk about the main issue of this game. Skill and item balance. Zenimax is doing an awful job of balancing the game. Yes you can theorycraft a class but that class that you create might be so strong that you can fight 5 players at once and defeat them. That's the main reason why most ESO players are PVE players. Alliance war and battleground doesn't have that much player that they "simplified" the options. This obvious stems from Zenimax when they first creating the game. They thought it's fun to create absurd skills and item set effects but forget how it will affect the enjoyment of the players in their PVP contents. If you're a PVE player then all of the things that I've said about skill and item balance doesn't matter.
    All in all, the game si good but there are some questionable decision especially the skill and item balance.    … Expand

    Eight years of development, a team consisting of even 250 people at some points, budget reaching hundreds of millions of dollars. It’s a pity that this ‘Skyrim Online’ disappoints both fans of previous Bethesda games and MMORPG veterans who expected some fresh air in the stale genre. [06/2014, p.44]

    A well done MMO that can lure players not familiar with the genre. But if you've played MMOs before, this one doesn't offer anything new, nor anything exciting.

    60 days was more then enough time for me to determine that I would rather spend my time elsewhere.
