The Elder Scrolls Online

ESO is an absolutely wonderful game with such a vast and beautiful world with so much to explore! Lots of quests, lore and characters to interact and learn about. So much content and beautiful scenery. Definitely a game worth your time!

There are a lot of things they got right about this game. I'm an Elder Scrolls fan, not an MMO fan. I do recommend checking it out if you have a chance, but it's really just a placeholder until TES VI. Because it's an MMO, it's less enjoyable than it should be. The devs do a great job, but the people are generally awful and ruin the experience.

I was expecting more, considering all the hype. For me it felt flat and lacking, because the races and classes are a little too cosmetic. They are so "open" to crossover, that it doesn't feel there is much difference in choosing one or the other. And then there are so many tweaks you can buy, that characters have no distinctive flair. Which also makes this game a great money pit for players into building mega-characters.

But the deal-breaker for me was that, something about the visuals caused me vertigo. No matter the adjustments I did. Tried switching perspective, reducing head-bob, and just about any other recommended tweak. I couldn't play for more than 45 minutes without getting nausea. The funny thing is that a friend also got vertigo from the game. I looked around and vertigo seems to be an issue for some people.

So, no, I wouldn't recommend this game.

When it comes to mmo's there tends to be a lot of issues with the first phase of the game. When.this game was first launched there was issues with the levelling and made the game extremely repetitive. But after the first update, the game most certainly improved. I really wish those people who were disappointed at first would come back and play it. Also, i wasn't a big fan of Skyrim V which turned me off from the game initially, but these two games are completely different. So if you liked skyrim, you may or may not like this, and if you didn't like skyrim, give it a chance. This is a really good game. Unlike destiny this sticks to the true roots of a mmo.

...if you enjoy PvP in open world Cyrodil, you're in for a lot of laggy times. It's such a shame, too, because Cyrodil is such a unique experience when it works correctly. But, hey, I still come back and play several times per week after all these years... so I can't knock it too much.

If the lag in Cyrodil was fixed, this would be a 10/10!
