Who are you? Why did you pick up ESO?

So, I played ES, I loved MMO, and games feed off my life. I'm eager to find out what makes up the population, so put the pitch forks and compliments aside. Regardless of our comments on ESO, we are all gamers. And we all had good reasons when we picked up the game.

What about you?

    Notice how bacon is always the most bacon color of the poll questions.

    Mmm..bacon..

    Oh yeah, I have been playing TES since Morrowind in 2002 and I just can't ever seem to stop.

    This game has its faults granted, I feel like I am in paid beta, but there are aspects that keep me interested plus the fact that it has high potential given the changes that will be implemented.

    Myself wanted the sixth entry as well, I'm disappointed if they're not already working on it.

    Heya!

    I'm a MMO fan. I truelly, love and enjoy the possibility to play games with other poeple, and be able to take part and build communities. In MMO, what I do prefer is the metagaming arround guild and communities.

    The first day I played Morrowind in 2003 I regretted it was not a MMO. Loved the game, the atmosphere, the story, the way it was played, but I missed the poeple.

    Well... my dream came true!



    Now, ESO is not the best game to socialise, but it's good enough to make feel fullfilled and not alone in a world too big for me. :)

    I'm an MMO gamer and I like The Elder Scrolls setting so figured it could be interesting, from what I had heard from pre-release beta it also sounded like the game was not another generic MMO which had no skill or thought involved.

    Also @Aeradon you're so mean for placing bacon on that last option, I was so close to clicking it... I also no want bacon. :'(

    TES fan mainly since I picked up Oblivion in...2010 it was I believe? I was late, I know. I fell in love with it immediately. Spent about 132 hours in it and loved every second. I love it maybe now more than I ever did before and it remains my favorite TES game, though I spent about 700-750 hours in Skyrim. 2010 was also the year when I played my first mmo, Kingdom Heroes. I played a few since, and typically find some enjoyment in the genre, so it's a bit of both really.

    @Turelus‌ Aww :( Don't worry, it almost got me clickin' that too (:

    @skarvika‌ I had a chance to play Oblivion in 2007 or 08, couldn't recall. But it remains my favourite game until now. Picked up Skyrim, played with it for a few weeks, immediately booted up Oblivion and started all over. LOL. With mods of course, else it will look outdated.

    Elder Scrolls fan for ages now.

    I wasn't at all intrigued by the idea of an Elder Scrolls MMO, in fact initially I found the idea horrendous. I did sign up for beta however (partly out of curiosity, and partly because I'm pretty good at bug testing, usually involving less fun software than games though! Anyone who thinks playing a beta of a game and submitting bug reports is work needs to spend a few months designing and testing a large database to put it into perspective).

    After the first day in beta I was a fan.

    I find the now outdated graphics to be a part of the campy charm the game has. Hey, thanks for reminding me though, I wonder how the Skyblivion mod is going...

    I'm also an ES fan, but I wanted to see what they could do.

    I'm actually pretty impressed despite what a lot of reviews say for starting out I think the game has a lot of potential. I just think a lot of people who disliked the beta need to give the actual game a real chance and when ZOS have this running as they want it, it will be something great.

    Just for now it is declare war on the bots and my PC for exploding on ESO... It likes to crash when I patch if I'm doing other things at the same time. >.>
