love the grind
The Elder Scrolls Online has endless story lines and so many adventures with ample customization options for your character and your gaming style, highly recommend this game for single gaming or joining a gaming community or guild!
Fantastic game, despite being over 10 years old. Great content. Great voice acting.
I 100% recommend Elder Scrolls Online. Ive been playing on and off for almost 10 years across steam and Xbox and I encourage anyone on the fence to give it a try. Yes, there are areas of the game that you have to pay for. The base game world will have you invested for a long time and at this point they have slowly started rolling some dlc content into the base game and I doubt that will stop. The guild and multiplayer experience are top tier. Ive never enjoyed socializing in a game like I do with ESO. The devs have been on a roll with new content updates and are actively refreshing the game in so many ways. This is an amazing time to get into it ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE SEEING THIS ON SALE!
Was an ESO Hater, now an ESO believer. Tried it on release and just couldn't get comfortable with it, I put it down in just a few weeks. After I heard the Season Zero changes, I became intrigued and picked it up again and I'm in love. The community is very nice and super active, I see strangers give away mats and gear regularly to newbies in world. It's like my old MMO days. I would recommend this for people who want an MMO in Tamriel, not for those looking for strong narrative. You can solo most content if you want to, other people not required
it just works
yes
Masterpiece, totalmente infravalorado.
Content de voir qu’ils remettent les classes pure en avant avec la maj U50. Je n’ai personnellement pas du tout aimé le système de subclassing qui enlevait toute la richesse des classes.
This game is great! I love it. I'm utterly immersed and addicted to exploring the world of ESO. You can play this forever! Good graphics, yes, not the best, however quite good-looking in my opinion for an MMORPG (and overall for that matter). The game's world is beautiful and can be enjoyed for an eternity! The story is interesting, fun, attractive, great and keeps ya glued to your seat, however sometimes lacking, although in my opinion this is only seen in a few of the side quests (which I find to be acceptable as well as normal). I love it, as I also learned more about the world of TES and connected dots from Oblivion and Skyrim. There's so much lore and if you're a lore addict, you will love this! There's a ton (if not more than a ton) to go around! Gameplay is fun, relaxing as well as intense - depending on what you do. Be it world exploration, questing, delves, dungeons, PvP etc. - there's always something to do and it never gets boring. It's amazing! It's... addictive (in a good way :D). I'm happy to have found yet another good MMORPG. My personal hopes are that this will be like World of Warcraft, in the aspect that it won't get shut down any time soon. This is the 2nd MMORPG, I have delved in to, other than and as much as World of Warcraft. I would highly recommend the game, as you can play this for the rest of your life. Overall, I would personally give the game 9/10. Can't put it down! P.S. At the time of this review, I have only played via PlayStation 5, hence the mighty 84 minutes at the time of my review. Side Note: Deluxe Edition: My experience is based off of purchasing and playing The Elder Scrolls Online Deluxe Edition (which include all content from 2018 to 2025). Base Game: Only the Base Game of TESO, I would still recommend and say absolutely the same, except for the difference, that there will not be always something to do and there is a risk of getting bored. And that is again, after at least more than 150 hours (and more) of game time. Subscription: I would not recommend a subscription, in case you have the Deluxe Edition, but would recommend in case you have only the Base Game. The point of the subscription is pretty much only a quality-of-life improvement anyway (e.g. more inventory space, faster progression etc.).
