    But for the game it self, it is poor, i really love the elder scrolls series and i think thats what the problem is, i just doesnt feel like a elder scrolls game therefore producing a feeling of dissapointment, so i tried to look past that and see it for what it is but it still feels like a let down, the story so far is pretty pants, the gameplay is boring, and it comes across as complete chaos when it comes to interaction with real world players, its just complete chaos, people running about like headless chickens, trying to tea bag you, starting fights with guards who then start on you.

    I now have an issue where i am in Daggerfall and a real world player started a fight with a guard and the guard then attacked me and it placed a bounty on my head as it thought i was the criminal, this was early into the game. it just all feels so chaotic. No structure or enjoyment so far what so ever.

    Tonnes of bugs, crashes, freezes, lock ups, loading screens, missing items, missing quest targets. This is the best Zenimax can do 2 years after release. Seriously all the top ratings are fan boys without any critical merit.

Collecting ingredients is tedious when you constantly have to do slow grabbing/mining/chopping animations on the large quantities of insects, plants, rocks, runestones, trees, and other harvestable things in the game world. Having the base Elder Scrolls option of just clicking a single button to collect something would help a lot. Guard AI is very bad, and the problem is exacerbated by their aggression and invincibility. In the first little bit of play after exiting Bleakrock Isle, which was my starting zone, enemies were in the middle of the friendly camp and attacking people. I was playing as a templar focused on crowd control and healing, and shot my movement speed reducing attack at one of the caster enemies. A guard ran in between us during the casting animation and I instantly got 37 bounty and was killed on sight. Attack cycling feels the same as every other MMO out there with not much unique, and the hitboxes are completely out of proportion so that if the enemy swings at you you're probably going to get hit even if you're 10 feet away and they're swinging a dagger. Bethesda is involved with it but it hardly feels like it is, comes across as an uninspired junky WoW clone. I wouldn't play this thing for a large quantity of time for free, much less for 10 dollars, or the normal non-discounted 30. Did I mention the leveling up process is so choked that I hit level 6 halfway through the beginning zone and then spent another hour of running around completing quests to get halfway to the next level. Not only do I not consider this one fun, but I don't even see it becoming enjoyable without major overhauls. A huge fail that really tarnishes a fun world. Expand

    I have nothing to say for the gameplay or functionality, as without Plus I can't even touch the game in the first place, but if you're looking to buy the game, be warned. Unless you can (or are willing to) purchase Playstation Plus membership with any regularity, don't even bother with this game. Try Realm Reborn if you're looking for a free MMORPG.

    Questing is as generic as it gets with MMOs; voice acting is frustrating since you can probably read a lot faster than they are speaking. After the first few mundane hours of listening to a crappy script read-through, I found myself skipping all the voice acting and having no idea what I'm fetching and for whom - which comprises around 99% of the quests. Combat - generic plus a manual aim crosshair which was /shrug worthy, PvP - maps too big and really unsatisfying. Graphics - nice, but too much glow effects makes it feel like a cartoon and not anything like the bleak/darkness typically seen in the Elder Scrolls Saga.

    TLDR - Game was a little late to the MMO party and brings nothing new. Plenty of completely free to play games on PC which have been around for years do a better job. If you like MMOs, play one you already have. If you like Elder Scrolls, sorry, you're **** outta luck

    Grinding, unbalanced, crappy combat... no reasons at all to play this game.
    Even if it wasn't enough, is still bugged and they're adding only more grinding...
    PvP could have saved this title, but is even more buggy and unpolished. Truly a lost cause.

    An interesting attempt at Bethesda to claim the MMORPG market for consoles; unfortunately, due to the lack of competition, they will probably succeed in this endeavor despite creating one of the most stereotypical and uninspired cookie-cutter games of all time.

    An interesting attempt at Bethesda to claim the MMORPG market for consoles; unfortunately, due to the lack of competition, they will probably succeed in this endeavor despite creating one of the most stereotypical and uninspired cookie-cutter games of all time.

    You know how at the Redbox they'll have a famous movie like (for example) Saving Private Ryan, then they'll also have a Russian knock-off called Rescuing Sergeant Johnson or something? This is the Russian knock-off to a game like World of Warcraft. The exact same gameplay, but in the Elder Scrolls environment. Character classes and skills make zero difference because the game scales the difficulty based on what level you are anyway. It is suspiciously impossible to find enemies that are a much lower or higher level than you. You will never find that one great piece of equipment because it might throw you outside of the difficulty band Bethesda carefully manufactured for you. The game is a horribly disappointing walk through missions and locations forced to be the exact right difficulty. You simply pound your different attack buttons to kill the enemies fed to you and pick up the gear they drop which is either your level or one level above you, but is never magical or unique. The flash and sparkle of crafting, other characters, big cities, the auction house and other MMORPG staples will hold you over, but after about ten hours the curtain is lifted and you realize the game is not challenging; it never lets you fail, but it also never gives you any moments of glory. Items are uninteresting. Missions are uninteresting. Let's just try again on the Elder Scrolls 6, shall we?

    ESO is filled with players running cheat engine and other 3rd party apps that allow one to cheat, Resource pool, attack power, speed, regen, ect all remains on the client side and are able to be manipulated. Most of the cheaters hide in trials/grp dungeons were they are less likely to be spotted there are many cheaters in each of the pvp campaigns.

    After spending more than 8 months on this game and aprox 180$. I can say I gave this game a fair chance so my review counts for something. So here we go...

    When you first log on, you appreciate and marvel at the density of this game. The big towns and the architecture and lore lead you to believe this game is going to be epic. It looks really good on the outside. In addition, you realise you aren't leveling up your character without purpose: you will eventually go PvP so it makes feel like a huge world.

    The problem?

    It's kind of boring... no actually it's really boring. After 10-20 hours of constant questing and repeat fetch quests, kill quests... you start to get a sense that this is really just a chore. The novelty of the world and the MMORPG aspect start to dwindle as you realise there is no real social community. It's just a single player mmorpg where you grind out quests...repeatedly...over and over again.

    Then you get to PvP and think... well it's a realm versus realm game. It should be epic and have nostalgia factor of being part of a big universe. Then.... you realise it's just a HUGE map but it looks very bland and boring. You just end up doing another version of.... run for 4-5 minutes to get to a fight... die. Repeat until you realise how boring it really is. There's nothing about the world pvp that is engaging or fascinating. I remember the old days when I played Dark Age of Camelot. Pvp was never boring, it was extremely exciting and nerve wrecking. You felt you were part of a real community.. a living world. But in ESO, it's just a plain map with keeps and you drudge through the terrain to get to another one and join the zerg. There's nothing there... after the novelty wears off. It's boring as hell... Another aspect that ruins this game is the PvP mechanics are heavily based on getting stunned repeatedly. It's quite annoying and you get stunned virtually every 2-3 seconds in a fight. Finally, it seems EVERYONE wants to be a Nightblade. They are incredibly overpowered. They will virtually vanish constantly as soon as they die and come back to full health. It would be ok if they died faster but no they are just as tanky as you lol.

    In summary, I spent alot of money and time playing this game but as I reached level 40, I realised I was bored to death. The Dialogue from the quests are just that...dialogue. There's nothing there.

    You want an MMORPG, go play something on PC where people actually use the chat bar and where the world feels like a living and breathing universe.... But on console MMORPGs are bland and boring, lonely experience.

    Good

    The games musical score and controls.I have played a lot of mmos in the past and i do prefer those that keep buttons for skills to a minimum,nothing i detest more than a screen full of hotbars/skills.That's one area where i think TESO beats out ffARR,despite ffARR being semi-friendly to a game control pad.

    The Bad:

    Quests are uninspiring and quickly become a slog,ffARR does it much better.

    Although TES games have always had a drab colour palette,it's still sad to see it here,after playing ffARR TESO pales in comparison.The average graphics of the game aren't particularly nice to look at either.

    Game performance is horrendous,i've witnessed so many tears and fps drops,it really breaks the flow of the game.The weather effects are also poor.

    Although i like the combat controls,combat itself(although i'm still kinda early into the game)is also boring,not only that but it's very hit and miss...i have a stellar internet connection so i can only assume the hitboxes are off at times or there is a problem with netcode.

    I've been in 2 dungeons so far and those are passable in their layouts and graphics,too early to tell if they offer any variation or become more exciting.

    I wish i could comment on the crafting aspect but i haven't delved into that at all.
    I do know there is no auction system and i sincerely hope zenimax revisits that in future.

    Character models are very disjointed,no flow to other characters movements.

    All the minions/pets cluttering up the city just makes the game look worse imo.

    I can't comment on grouping and other player interation either,but if it is anything like i've heard from the pc version that is another big failing.

    As for the pricing,sorry but zenimax are ripping the arse out of it.Crowns are overpriced,their sub is overpriced and the imperial edition is overpriced comsidering you already have to pay for the full game.That sub should be half the price before i'd consider paying for it and i'm not taking into account how poor i think this game is.

    I couldn't give this game anymore than a 4 from what i've played,i suggest if you're looking to get into a console mmo,buy ffARR,it does nearly everything so much better.

    All in all,mediocre.

    Still, I don't understand how we can be seeing positive, glowing reviews for a game that can't be played for any extended period of time. Also, I can't fathom how the developer has gone two days without either seriously ramping up capabilities or offering some sort of credible plan for a solution. This may be the first PS4 game I ask Amazon to take back as defective.

Dungeons scale to appeal to end-game PvE players, balance changes that regularly wreck concept builds to appeal to PvP players, and world bosses that used to be soloable that now require a large group. If you're a very competitive sort, you'll love it. It's just too toxic of an environment for casuals. It's moving ever more and more toward appealing to the people who play WoW and League of Legends.

    Crafting used to be a level above all drops, so it was easy to craft great armour. Crafting stats have been nerfed, and crafted gear is the same level as what drops now (and inferior in every way). This is something they promised they wouldn't do, but hey, it's just too easy to get good gear and the high-end PvE players don't like that. They added duelling, which meant that roleplayers are now getting trolled all the time by people checking roleplaying site schedules and having duels there. Unlike Champions Online, it doesn't even have no-duel zones. You can duel anywhere.

    The only thing that ESO still has going for it is slightly above sub par writing.

    ESO has gone in a Bold New Direction, the management at Zenimax Online Studios now wants that sweet, sweet WoW money. And we all know how well that worked out for Champions Online, Wildstar, Warhammer Online, et al, right?

    So don't bother with ESO and ignore the promises made about it. It used to be a casual game, not any more.

Once you hit the cap of lvl 50, you'll be asked to do everything you just did, twice over, in the two other faction zones. That's hundreds of hours of questing, and that's the FASTEST way to get to Veteran Rank 14.

    Expect a fun albeit somewhat generic adventure to level 50, followed by 300 hours of pointless grinding before you can do any endgame content. Enjoy getting dominated in PVP and turned down for group content in PVE by people who DID do the 300+ hour content grind.

    Seriously, between the end of the main quest and the beginning of endgame content there's a gigantic void that you must fill with mindless quest and event grinding.

    As for other classes , everyone basically specs for dps. You hardly find a decent tank , nobody can hold aggro , people claiming to be healers .. aren't. If you get into a Pug to do an instance you can pretty much expect the equivalent of a bunch of pre-preschoolers at playtime. And it basically isn't the people's fault. it's the way the game is designed. "Jack of all trades , master at none" gets everyone killed.

    Had high hopes - but buyer beware this is a horribly boring fetch quest slog with visuals that are lower quality than vanilla skyrim. Wish I had saved my money - under baked cash grab - after playing mmos for years I was highly disappointed - horrible social features very clunky - I gave it a 4 only for the combat it was fun and class building is alright but honestly it can't decide whatHad high hopes - but buyer beware this is a horribly boring fetch quest slog with visuals that are lower quality than vanilla skyrim.

    A couple of lines of dialogue can often be all you’re given before being plunged into whatever mundane task is expected of you; rare are the significant characters and even rarer are the ones you care about. It just doesn’t maintain the same depth of exploration or profundity that the series is known for, leading to a much quicker-paced Elder Scrolls experience.

    Even simple quests cause a chain reaction of new incidents and it's possible to see how the player affects Tamriel. But if you expect something like Skyrim with coop-mode you still have to wait for another game.

    This is a nice RPG and a bad MMO. The game is playable without subscriptions and it offers a lot of content to explore. Playing together with other gamers still is not really working properly. It is too bad this game does not impress, even though the development system for characters and the PvP are fun.
