So im getting bored lately MMO wise, and I reverted to my trump for boredom : ES 5 skyrim. I then immediately thought about ESO and wanted some input from people who actually play the game from a source I like, figure what better place than jsp? is this game any good as it is? What of the free to play rumors ive heard lately? does it face the same imbalance problems and FoTm builds that plague world of Warcraft pvp? ( this in particular, as what point is a MMO without some good pvp action now and then? )

its balanced well, tho it lacks endcontent (raids etc) - but if you like lore u'll love it. they had a lot of issues at release so a lot of players stopped playing but they improved,changed,balanced,fixed a lot since the release. It gets better every patch so definately worth to try!

The Player numbers will change since its going free 2 play in march for PC and it will be connected to the nextGEN consoles in june/july - so a big bunch of players incoming soon !

very nice game indeed

I've enjoyed it. I've been following the lore and quests for probably the last 3 weeks and I've barely made it to 35. There's so much to do between crafting, questing and pvp.

Definitely worth a shot.
