I hope this doesn't sound too critical, but I think it took me longer to get through the Age Gate than watch the video.9 -

Agreed. I think it was too short, too. I don't expect a 2 minute long video, but 6 seconds showing a town doesn't sound like a 'Travel series'. Slower shots and a montage of about 20 seconds (showing the town itself) is about what I'd expect.4 -

We saw Hlaalu styled armor, saw very small city, saw outskirts. So, i would say it is perfect tease of zone that heating our desire to explore it but at same time doesn't spoiled too much of zone to not ruin exploration feeling.lordrichter wrote: »Hmm.

Gotta agree here. Screenshots would have been about the same speed of delivery and would have loaded faster. (Admittedly, then we miss out on the background music...) It's nice, but I feel like I was promised a nice dinner, then got kicked out after the waitress brought breadsticks.#proud2BAStarObsessedLoony

Coolio_Wolfus✭✭✭For new eso gamers who only bought the Morrowind preorder and seeing 'tiny' video above...
Well they also need to see of eso/tamriel/nirn since 'someone' decided the pre order's core eso code is also locked until 6/6.
Personally I'm surprised to see a pre-order for new players/content actually locking new players out of the existing game part...2 -

Yeah. I am very happy for the upcoming Morrowind. But kinda embarrassed about the debacle of making players with the base game wait. I can understand why they would assume that they could have accessed the base game content as soon as they purchased.

My guess is that future Chapters will be handled better. Yeah, someone at Bethesda should have foreseen that people might want to play Tamriel Unlimited while waiting for Morrowind, but they didn't. Now, they know and can handle it better next time.

Everywhere it's very clearly written as well as stated that those all inclusive bundles are for "new players" for a June release date. That's why it's labeled as Pre-order.
for $59 any new player could buy the game and most dlc and later pre-order the upgrade-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf

Funny thing, I remember on Eso live that there was supposed to be two more this week but I could never find a post about it on the forums. Then I pop on a mmo site that post about the two videos and they were like check it on the main site. I was like where. I have checked all of the news on the site. Then I press the link on the post and it lead me back to the original post. Call me surprised.0 -

@NewBlacksmurf Yes but that was not in the material provided both on-site and to game retailers, so some people bought on faith thinking they could play ESO whilst waiting.
Also why did ZOS bother adding the base game to the Morrowind collectors edition, if new players needed to go out and buy it to play in advance anyway?
Anyway I was surprised that the ESO code for the base game was included with the perk pack, rather than activating the base game and adding itself as a pre-order perk pack code to the account history, the same way it's added as a pre-order upgrade for existing players.

It's been absolutely clear regarding the base game having a June release if you purchased the bundle. The only people who thought the could buy a pre-order of the upcoming Morrowind game and start playing ESO are those who either didn't read or who decided to use forums and uninformed internet articles.
Myself and many others have made many comments on different sites to try and eliminate false rumors but ppl just want something to be something it's not.
No where does it say pre order Morrowind and play ESO today.....no site that sales these bundles has ever listed it that way.
ESO offered the base game in the bundle for NEW players and the existing players are offered upgrade bundles. No idea why anyone is confused.
The only thing that was unclear was regarding the extras included in the digital bundles vs physical but the game itself.....if people just read and accept what's listed....it's clear
Regarding you being surprised......
That's based on what you want not what they've ever suggested or listed.
And honestly, that doesn't make any sense at all....please go read the support/FAQ page
The game on PC is always a digital code and on consoles it's either a disk only for the base game or digital a bit different from Pc.
Morrowind is digital for everyone
Sorry if I'm coming off too aggressive but this type of stuff requires stronger responses as people continue to make up ideas based on some other company's offering vs just reading what's listed.
All authorized retailers clearly list the bundles and upgrades as June releases. None of them offer a play now and upgrade later option which is why ZOS' own articles mention the gold edition for an option and to upgrade via pre-orderEdited by NewBlacksmurf on 26 March 2017 04:25-PC (PTS)/Xbox One: NewBlacksmurf
