A pretty solid assessment imo. Agree  with everything above. Not a huge PVPer, but I went in there a few times and was able to figure out what was going on and had a lot of fun.


And with no mention of the lack of PvE content, which is why many of us are leaving, including myself. I think it is a very important aspect of the game. Not everyone PvPs, and even if one does; people also like to PvE / Raid.

I'm actually going back to TERA and ditching this game. An actual moderately balanced game that actually requires skill.


I am glad you came to your senses finally. Only took a few days, and lashing out at myself and others while in the process of telling people to "quit the game" "leave, we won't miss you" and in the end... you're quitting now too! The irony... but yea, I don't blame you for leaving, or at least putting this on the shelf for a little while until they release more content.

Yeah, at the low levels you really can't fight anything that is a higher level than you are unless you kite really well. Especially if it has a border (I had to fight one of the brothers of strife, forget his name, like 3 times, once at level 6, 7, and 8, to finally beat him).

I'm just going to summarize my opinion on this game:
-This game is awesome if you want to quest.
-This game's skill progression is pretty sweet.
-This game's pvp is the best I've played, and I haven't even become a vet yet OR played it very seriously.
-This game feels like other elder scrolls games when it comes to lore. If you want to immerse yourself in a world this is definitely for you.
-This game isn't entirely polished. Bugs, balance issues, and stuff like that are still an issue.



This is a good review, except as mentioned, the game is still lacking in end game PVE content as in large group raids and more more content. But there is reason for that....

People need to keep in mind the game is 1 month old. It's not going to be fully finished in a months time with everything open to you. Pull up the map of Tamriel in game. See all that empty space not used yet for zones? That's all future DLC's right there. Zenimax said early on all of Tamriel will eventually be available through future DLC's. That's enough space to eventually bring out enough content to max out at VR50 if every DLC raises the VR level 2-5 ranks at a time. That is A LOT of future content still to come.

I personally love the game. And I also think it is important to find a guild and have friends online to play with. That makes a huge difference in enjoyability.

I can understand people who rushed to VR10 already and sitting around with nothing to do. I understand that can be frustrating, but I play every day 4-6 hours a day and hit VR1 yesterday. I am questing, not grinding, I am fully enjoying the experience and having an absolute blast playing the game.

I'm going to read the Craglorn patch notes. It will decide everything. Not just for me, but for this game.

Honestly, it's not enough for me. The 4-Player stuff looks pretty decent, and it's something I could do with just myself and my room mates, but it's just not enough for me.
