Question, about how good is Elder Scrolls Online?

Stay as far away from ESO as you possibly can. I was a closed beta tester and it was just God awful. Every generic mmo in one with the elder scrolls name on it.

Well that sucks. Quit WoW years ago and definitely not going back to that.

Really liked Skyrim with how open ended you could be with your play style and honestly would have loved that for PvP. No intention of returning to the raiding days, but the PvP for such a setup would have been great.

you can read the reviews in the store page

If you want an MMO with good combat, I recommend TERA. Completely free to play (not even pay 2 win), has great combat and tons of content.

Never played it, but the fact that they took out the monthly subscription should speak volumes about its quality, or...lack there of. At least that's how well the users received it.

Thanks, may look into TERA.

As far as looking at Elder Scrolls, virtually every review I have seen said it sucked on release but during the past 6 months or so has improved vastly with the Steam reviews being mostly positive.

Why I was wanting to get other opinions. Thank you, really wish that one would have lived up to the hype.

check their official forums, you find out pretty quickly not to touch it, especially if you have any interest in pvp

The real answer is: On TES Wiki,people pulled up a poll do you consinder getting ESO? Well,most people voted still doesn't interest me due to...you know what.

I played ESO from the early betas and maintained a sub for about 9 months after launch, I played off and on up until about the 8-month mark. It went downhill pretty quickly after launch. PVP was fun at first, but cheating was pretty rampant the last few months I played. I've not been back in since.

I've not been back in since the F2P launch, but I've no doubt the first few months of that was/will be far worse than anything I saw before I left. It seems like every time I find an MMO I like, it either gets cancelled or goes F2P and all the crazies, trolls and gold farmers flock in.

ESO= GW2+ WOW. Beter play them.

Never tried ESO (though I adore the Elder Scrolls single player), but I played Aion for a while a few years ago and had a blast. It's a bit of a grind, but I was good at it and the community is (mostly) great. I became a well known name on both factions before I quit. Even more fun than WoW, though I did miss the battlegrounds an awful lot.

Well, I'm playing it now with the TU launch, I played beta and didn't like it that much, then I played the free time they gave to people that played beta could try the new Tamriel Unlimited content and I really like it. You should see some videos or reviews after the Tamriel Unlimited expansion.

I was also thinking about ESO, my friend lent his account for me to try it out just the other day, and it's only a low level character I tried out (because he wasn't very satisfied with the game) but it looked okay. The combat is refreshing to compared to WoW, but feels console-y (obviously). On higher level there's more fun to be had I guess.

Go try GW2 is you don't mind massive class homogenization and lack of actual endgame content (except pvp).

Why don't you give wildstar a shot now, that it's in a 1 dollar tier in a bundle and going f2p anyway? I haven't played with it, but I saw some vids, it looked decent and the combat seems pretty cool.
