Title: Elder scrolls online
Post by: Charles on January 08, 2014, 05:24:15 am
I've gotten invited to the Beta to Elder scrolls online and wonder if anyone else got invited and would like to play this weekend.
So far we are three people that will level through pvp :)

At one point I've applied every day for 2 weeks on 3 different emails and got nothing.

I got my invite for the second time. Might have to do with the fact that when I signed and it asked for computer specs I googled top gaming computers specs and Copy/pasted that.  ;D I might if I download it. The game is like 20GB and I get 6MPS DL, but when I DL no one else can connect to wifi. So yes the struggle is VERY real.

I got in and played today, but tbh it is really boring... I think today's MMORPGs are just not made for me nomore... questing is very similar to WoW and the combat is only interesting the first couple hours...it's a good thing i got this chance to try it out, because now i know im definately not buying it at release. The UI is the only similar thing to skyrim. Everything else feels like a MMORPG which I think will turn a lot of console gamers off.

I would not recommend it.

Even though I said myself that I don't like the game, I would recommend this game IF you liked games such as Guild Wars 2... It has a very similar feel to it. The only problem is that it will be $15 a month. I, however, do not want to play another MMORPG that has you level to max with pointless quests and then grind dungeons for better gear. I think Shroud of Avatar will suit me much better and anyone who cares about deep crafting and exploration.

I also would not recommend it. The combat was okay. I didn't get that far as I got disconnected after 10 min in game and didn't rush to go back and play. To tell you the truth an Online fallout would of been BETTER. Just a note If your video card isn't the greatest like mine. I would not recommend. My video card cost me $70 (worth $100) and I don't wanna have to buy a $250 to get better looking graphics.

Considering the horribly inflated initial purchase price and the monthly prices that will go with this game, not interested.

I think it's a very nice game. The combat is nice, the quests are good and the fact you're with loads of other people who can help at any time is great.

But then there's the $15 per month......no thanks Bethesda. If this was a pay 2 play game instead of subscription based, then I would head down to my local Game shop and buy it, but right now as it stands: $60 for the game plus $15 per month = $240/£150 just to play it for a year.

I think I'll wait until they make it free 2 play.

I agree 100% with you. The price is steep for what you are getting.

This game is terrible.

Don't buy it if you like MMO's. It's a wow clone with bad addons and it will go down the same way TOR did. The price is too steep like mentioned before.

Don't buy it if you you have a basic understanding of TES lore. This game rapes the lore so bad. An altmer queen in her twenties, argonians allying with dunmer, summerset isle cities are made out of stone and look dull, the entire history of that age already described in books totally retconned, elder scrolls reduced to a stupid game buff/mp king of the hill, elder scroll of Chim, etc etc etc.

It's trying to shake money out of your pockets and the joy you get in return simply won't be enough.
