I read this in the comments on gamespot, really sounds like a huge let down in the mmo genre. As far as servers and login issues, its's almost expected and there are few mmos that have successful game or expansions releases.


"I bought the PC version because the console version was going to be following a few weeks, no a few months, well heck make it over 1 year later. The whole time we heard "we are working on it"

The problem is they have to keep changing the game because it is so terrible. It is by far not deserving of an elder scrolls title. First it was the "we will never be free to play" which is an exact quote. Then next was "there is plenty of end game content" until we all found out the end game content is basically just replaying the same first 50 levels over again 3 times

then there was the "existing players who registered before june 6th will be able to transfer their characters over to consoles" well i am an existing registered user who also paid for more then 3 months of service, and i can't transfer my characters over, i also didn't get any form of reimbursement from the paid monthly subscription that was "always going to be there"""

The game was not great so they had to go back and insert things into the game, like different redesigns, they nerfed a bunch of stuff constantly, so just when you finally get good at something they will nerf it, and as far as PVP goes, all the dramatic classes of 50 people that look so cool in the videos? Well don't expect it to be that smooth if more then 10 people are around you.

Oh and by the way all the fun you are supposed to have exploring the world? Well that is not there, simply with in a few days of playing you will be able to make the best gear in the game, with very little effort, making exploring worthless, when you down that big boss at the end of the dungeon and are like AWESOME lets see what sweet loot we get? And you find out that it is worse then anything you have had since 10 levels ago? then you think well maybe the next area in the veteran levels? Nope sorry...you can make the BEST gear in the game with very little effort..so why go exploring, you are not going to find anything any better.

Having played ESO onPC for 3-4 months (played a lot during that time) I honestly would say witcher 3 is a much better game after playing it for about a week tbh. Sure there is no group content, but I wasnt a fan of the chaotic group dungeons in ESO anyways. It's nothing like WoW in the sense u have to organize and crowd control, u just hope ur healer has decent gear and run headfirst into each mob. Even "tanking" is practically nonexistent, it's nearly impossible to keep more than a couple enemy's attention if your "dps" are any good.
Bosses are a little more in depth admitably, first timers usually get crushed lol

I consider myself to be fairly good at video games (much better than your average pub anyways) and I didnt have anywere near the best gear in the game. I had high level professions abd many characters gathering the daily bonus, plus selling everything I found in numerous trade guild auction houses. I had solid gear but there was always something much better. I wasn't even max level after a couple hundred hours, maybe I spent to much tine exploring and grabbing skyshards tho =]

Quests aint boring at all which surprised me for an mmo
Its really fun to play with friends

Played for straight 7 hours or so and i am lvl 8 only
A lot of time passed by just trolling around and laughs too
Costumisation also great

I really enjoyed the early game, every quest npc has some neat story I had a hard time skipping a lot of it lol, the main complaint as was already said was the lack of a endgame (u basically turn all the low lvl zones to "hard mode" and do en over) and the overly simplistic dungeons.

I had a blast until about lvl 40 when it really slowed down tho!

the top two aspects of MMOS are raiding and PVP. Elder Scrolls online as seemingly messed up both of them.

I feel like most people who are playing on consoles right now haven't really played a real MMO. Raid mechanics are important and are pretty much non existent like you said.

raid mechanics? why cuz u dont gotta be organized by super nerds that take gaming far to seriously to do a raid? imo thats a pro not a con
