I wanted this game to be good. I did. I really did. But its not. Its bad. If you look at it objectively, its bad. Its just.. bad. Its so bad. just wait for it to go f2p, THEN maybe it wont be as bad. They will make improvements, and it wont cost you a 75 bucks to get started and 15 a month plus microtransactions. |

If you enjoy the other games it would probably be enjoyable for you. I would find it very difficult to justify spending a subscription fee for this game though.

What exactly makes it bad? I just keep seeing "It's bad, it's bad".
Is it bad because you just don't like traditional MMO's? Or is it bad because it fails even as a traditional MMO? If it's failing as a traditional MMO, why? I see people complain about it being Grindy....well....that's what an MMO is. Everquest was the king of Grind. WoW was a grind fest when it was released too. Does the game not have instanced content yet? Is it nothing but killing monsters? Is the leveling pacing bad because there aren't enough quests? Does the combat system suck? That's what i love about WoW, the combat system is very fluid if you're not a "clicker". |

To be honest, after this thread revival I went and redownloaded it and tried to play it again. yea. my opinion did not change. I do like traditional MMO's tbh. I have 5 level 80 characters in guld wars 2. I have leveled a character from 1 to max in every WoW expansion up until the panda one. The combat system soes suck. To be light. its nothing like TES except you have stamina. There are plenty of quests, but they are hollow junk, not engaging, not fun, there is no social aspect, the graphics/animations are a joke, except for the player models. Hell, I could go on. I will put it like this. I have at least betad, or played, nearly every major mmo to release since ultima online. (No everquest :X) and TONS of minor ones (mortal online anyone?) and this could be the WORST time i have had playing an MMO. its just.not.fun. |

Man...i have to concur. lots of friends are incredibly disappointed in ESO...very slow is a common thread i keep hearing.
I have not played it so can not comment, but i'll go by what my friends say... what a letdown. |

Leveling has never been an MMO's strength. ESPECIALLY low levels. I'm anxious to see what their end game content is like. I think THAT will be what makes or breaks this game.

I've heard people comparing the questing to the Barens(SP?) from vanilla WoW. If you ever played vanilla WoW you know how ****ing awful the Barens was. Walking a seemingly endless amount back and forth in the largest area in the game collecting 3 or 4 items at level 10-20 (20 levels below the nearest mount). |

I agree with you, but raiders are still a small percentage of any MMO community. My problem is that if I want to raid, i have to get to 50, and i will be damned if I do that in a game that 1-50 sucks. And let's be honest, how long has it been since and MMO opened up with awesome end game content right at the beginning ?

I got up to level 15. If I judged every MMO after 15 levels, I would hate all of them. I would think Wow was nothing but killing murlocks. And I think the quests were fun. Daggerfall area quests were engaging, with options for how the quests proceeded and what I thought was a cool storyline. I did try one of the public dungeons. It was interesting.

Just watched AngryJoe's PvP video and that sealed it for me (won't be giving this a shot). Nothing new to the MMO scene here, same set up as GW2 WvW and same out dated root+stun+AoE+spam+zerg+cluster**** combat mechanics with no reason to go first person.

So I just got an email from ESO with a 'invite a friend' beta key for upcoming beta weekend, it goes from Friday at noon EST to Sunday at midnight EST.
If any of you are still inexplicably wanting to try this game out for yourself, shoot me a PM. First come first serve. Edit: I have 3 keys up for grabs. Last edited by hometeam; 02-25-2014 at 02:37 PM.. |
