    The Elder Scrolls Online is not the best Elder Scrolls-game nor the best MMO. However, we did love spending tens of hours in Tamriel and this huge world does not seem to grow old quick. There are some flaws, but those are not even big enough to mention as in the end, Tamriel Unlimited is very entertaining, especially now that there are no subscription costs anymore.

    The action-based battle system is still a lot of fun. No skill, no kill, that's a lot more entertaining than standing around and clicking to rotate certain actions.

    The Elder Scrolls Online is a solid MMORPG, with content for hundreds of hours and playable with no monthly fees. Ultimately, this Tamriel Unlimited confirms to be the best edition for those who want to delve into the fantasy world created by Bethesda twenty years ago.

    Same old grind, same old lags, still no content promised to be delivered “just after the game’s release”. [06/2015, p.58]

    The pvp is very funny and needs strategy, and every class is important in it.

    - Grouping Tool needs some love
    - Endgame PvE isn't as good as it could be (especially when dungeons are so well designed)

    I couldn't be more happy with my purchase. ESO is the best game to have come in years. Amazing how they turned it all around. Go buy it.

    Been playing this game for a little over one year. Initially I gave this game a 6 because there were some key elements that wereBeen playing this game for a little over one year. Initially I gave this game a 6 because there were some key elements that were missing/flawed, and the the developers were mostly quiet about if/when they planned to address these elements. Missing/flawed elements included things like changing character appearance, changing character race, improving loot drops, fixing PvP lag, no PvP dueling or other small scale PvP features, etc. Thankfully the developer has addressed all of the areas above (including adding other good and unexpected features) and the game continues to evolve and get better. I'm bumping my score from a 6 to a 9 in response. The developer could still improve on interacting with the player base in a more transparent way, so I'm withholding the 10 rating until I see that happen. Expand

    I have played this game on and off since its beta 3 years ago. I have quit and come back 3 times. The reason I returned were the Elder ScrollsI have played this game on and off since its beta 3 years ago. I have quit and come back 3 times. The reason I returned were the Elder Scrolls lore, the Art style and the story telling. The reason I quit are the boring, repetitive combat and the grinding. There is way too much grind in this game and it gets in the way of being able to happily "play the way you want to". Much of the grind is sneaky with some extra kind of grind added right when you think you have got somewhere by a different mechanic just before you can complete. Every achievement feels like a let down because you are rewarded with a big slice of grind cake. Expand

    They ran this game into the ground. Their “DLC” is like stacking more trash onto a teetering garbage heap with a loose foundation. I playedThey ran this game into the ground. Their “DLC” is like stacking more trash onto a teetering garbage heap with a loose foundation. I played 1000’s of hours and the game has only gotten worse since 2017. It was salvageable if they could have focused on gameplay instead of creating more “content” behind paywalls. Their content is just reskinned zones with fetch quests and a few must haves to stay in the competitive loop. You just feel used for your money when you are paying $15 a month and you have to buy a $60 expansion every year that ends up being free if you buy the chapter next year. They only screw over their loyal base of players. The pvp used to be kinda fun but they completely screwed up the class identity and the pvp content has been the same for 6 years. Expand
