Kinda bored

✭✭✭
3 hrs in lvl 8 I'm kinda bored, everything seems disorganized, the UI is really bad on PC, the lack of information compared to other pc games, just seems like the whole game was built around controllers. The graphics are quite bland, the whole product is bland, this should be buytoplay. This will 100% be f2p in 2 months. Really lackluster even compared to SWTOR/GW2 which had no endgame, this doesnt seem to have much of a game at all. It just feels like the company wants $15 a month in free income. Didnt work out to well for SWTOR.

Love it when they make predictions like this.
At least ZOS can read forum titles, this is Q&A not rant and stupidity.VR14 EH Sorc

ThanatosXR✭✭✭Morrowind had interesting quests and a large world to explore, this feels small and boxed in way too theme parky.1

Inversus✭✭✭✭✭@ThanatosXR
That is a link to a 2012 article, created a week after the game was announced.
The writer had literally no information about the game to go on.
Furthermore it does not give a specific prediction like your '2 month' prophecy, which you have exactly no reasoning behind, despite the precise prediction.
Furthermore, I see no question in this post. This is the Q&A forum.
If there is a question I can answer, please post it.VR14 EH Sorc

Miths✭I'm sure every company who launches a subscription based MMO these days have already done the calculations and planning for the future potential (these days likely) change to F2P, but it's probably rather unlikely to happen within the first six months, and more likely a year.
Anyway, aside from some annoying quest bugs (so far fixed by logging out and back in again) I'm having a lot of fun with the game.
And I particularly don't get the "doesn't have a large world" to explore argument. While ESO is more linear than past Elder Scrolls games, the game world is certainly larger than in Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim.0 -

✭✭3hrs to level 8 - sounds like your clicking through the quests and then complaining it's bland. [Shakes head]0 -
ThanatosXR✭✭✭Bet ES games are known for being an open world.
Why give them $15 of free money a month when GW2 gives you content all the time for buying the game. The sub is 100% no tgonna fly this game will lose most of its playerbase at the end of the month.
You get no content with ESO and have the privilege of making them richer each month.

ThanatosXR✭✭✭Internet+$60 a box+Xbox LIVE/PSN(for console goers)+$15 a month+DLC/xpacs
I don't see a sizable amount wanting to pay that much for the privilege for playing another linar theme park game especially when Elder Scrolls prided itself on open world gameplay.0 -
Yshaar✭✭✭Want to discuss what you feel is lacking? Or just ride the "f2p soon" train ?
Tackling your points real quick:
1. Interface issues: Try out esoui.com and find what suits your style. you seem like a Foundry tactical combat person. LootDrop comes to mind too, as it is really really good.
2. kinda bored because you just rushed through and click click click is always boring.
3. Do not do the starter island. Do harder quests, higher level up. Explore! Go somewhere. did you see a dark anchor yet? Lvl to 10 and pvp. Group up and ...well try to find your way of having fun.0 -
Tamisan✭✭✭✭Of course the world seems small when you're level 8. That's like asking an 8 year old where the best vacation spot is. He's never been anywhere, so is going to give a ridiculous, naive answer.I know now what I was born to do.
