Wait... isn't that game a piece of shit?

That depends.

Are you a poor kid that was upset that you had to pay a subscription fee at launch and called it shit without ever playing it? Were you one of those people who nut gobbles Raging Rodriguez and took his uneducated word as fact despite the fact that this was clearly one of his first MMO games? Or did you actually play the game when it came out/know people that did?

The PC launch was actually one of the better MMO launches in history. However the game did have a lot of bugs and Zenimax wasn't able to pump out good content fast enough to justify the continued subscription fee which is why it eventually became buy to play like Guild Wars.

If you jump into it expecting Skyrim with friends you'll be disappointed as the game is an MMO first and an TES game second. The good news is that it adopts a more TES style leveling up system (although it does also include MMO like things such as a skill bar and traditional xp leveling up in addition to other levels such as two handed, bows, destruction, et cetera).

If you don't have friends to play with or aren't into MMOs I would either wait for it to go on sale or not get it at all.

Actually, i've just was always grown to not swear, so while I do swear, I like to censor it when I can.

it's literally the same as actually typing it out without censoring it though.

My understanding is that the game was greatly flawed at launch, and it has taken a lot of work to get it where it is now.

I don't know who raging rodriguez is, I'm just going off of articles I read about it and what friends who played it told me.

Those are the bugs I was talking about. There were often problems with quests that would make it so they couldn't be completed which would force you to restart the quest and continuously relog until a quest npc showed up. However people don't seem to remember that WoW was literally unplayable when it launched (and had worse endgame content). In comparison ESO was basically perfect.

Was it great at launch? No, but it wasn't the disaster that the hate bandwagon decried it to be. It was simply slightly above average.

eso is the problem with eso

This. I cannot play ESO when there are so many better alternatives. MMOs in general are time consuming, so free or not, I can't spend my time playing multiple MMOs.

we all know you love your weeb cat girl simulator mmo now leave our western cat-man simulator mmo alone

That being said I think 7/10 is a fair rating for the game but I think several other big mmos are ridiculously over rated. The mmo genre as a whole could learn a thing or 2 from eso

Eww, please no. The problem with most new MMOs is they're all themeparks and not sandboxes.

have you ever actually plays the game? And I was referring to the way classes and weapons work and the way combat is more than just tab and use your abilities.

I have. Another problem I have is content, without the sub, you won't be seeing much of it. Save for expansions. If those are even any decent. Every MMO I've seen gone F2P either turned to trash, turned to trash even more, or just remained decent with low amounts of new content coming in.

oh I certainly don't see it having the longevity of final fantasy 14 or wow. They should have designed the game to be buy to play from the start with paid expansions. That's what elder scrolls fans are used to and that's the model they ended up with anyway...

I think they planned on updating it frequently, but when the subs dropped, they stopped with that plan.

well it went about a year with subs and the only new content I believe they added was one endgame zone and their version of raids  and thievery that I know of. I don't think that justifies the sub

It doesn't. They've literally added barely anything in.

its certainly far from perfect but just little things about it makes it enjoyable to me

Just hit Veteran 1 wooh!

Rocking all Blue and Purple cause now I'm getting tempers all the time

Got every racial thing but primal, ayleid, dwemer, and daedra.

All I want is the dwemer helmet skill but God damn their expensive.

I could just buy the pack, but that would break my stance against Ingame purchases.

*sigh*

I really like how the Daggerfall Covenant zones look. Really enjoying how different the quests are as well.

But Ebonheart Eastmarch and Rift were the best
