The spears in the second picture are a cruel taunt...

Killer flora is going to be so interesting.

Cadbury

Looks like a fun place to take the kids.

This voriplasm will even get its own weapon style.

I'm a fan of the zone! Its really interesting. The bright-throat village main quest was so interesting that i turned off my music and didn't skip any dialogue!

White wabbit

Not sure if this dlc will be enough to drag me away from all the games being released in the next month or so

Acrolas

Now I want a Mutagen Man pet.

I couldn't even imagine playing some random rock song while running around in this beautiful world. The in-game music just makes ESO so much more enjoyable. Now, while PVP'ing? Different story.

I am very impressed with the distinctness and variety of the different Argonians (there are a lot!) we encounter. They pretty much all have very nicely designed attornments/colors, markings etc. so you really can distinguish them easily. They look damn good too. I hope such things become available as player wearable items in the future (there are tail markings for example, I don't think they exist so far for us players).

All in all I was very pleased with what I could see on the PTS so far. I would have gladly taken an even bigger zone, but it's a smaller DLC and not a chapter. Still very much worth going for it, imho - and since it's going to be a daily reward, it comes kind of cheap too.

If you don't mind a spoiler, I have here a 4K picture from a very scenic moment. It also contains a spoiler, so you have been warned:

Looks great, but it really makes me wish it were the next Chapter instead of the next DLC.

Anyone else notice the ESO Zone Lead's name is Ed Stark? How freakin cool is that? I mean, I know it's an N short but still, "Murkmire is coming..." 😂

Is the picture of the armor set the motif style Dead Water or whatever? I need that sword.

Noticed that as well. I can guarantee you he's heard that many times over the last few years as well. Heh.

So if I get this right, none of the achievements mentioned at http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Online:Prologues_Achievements are available at the moment? They'll appear some time later?

nobody is going to answer me?

This is what intrigued me the most. It will be available in the Crown Store, but it will also be available as a daily reward. How is that going to work-- base DLC for free but Collector's Edition in the store, or what? Maybe both will be available in the store as of early November but the free (base?) DLC won't be available as a daily reward until the end of November? I guess come the 1st of November (or 31st of October for some time zones) we'll get to see what date the free DLC will drop on.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see that this is sort of answered at the beginning of the other thread-- the DLC will be released in late October for PC and Mac, in early November for PS and Xbox, and on November 24th-ish as the free daily reward.
