Do you ever just travel around and admire the scenery of the different areas in the game?

Gidorick

Yes

Yes. I find myself doing this more often than not... then I come up on some bull crap invisible wall and rage quit.

remilafo

Yes

auridon is beautiful..

Lixiviant

A little too often Then I'm killed by an imp or some crawling flying object

Pangnirtung

As someone who has been doing professional landscape photography for years I often find myself stopping and admiring the land around me.

There are so many places where the lay of the rocks or how the sun shines around a mountain are exactly right.

Amazing work done by artists that doesn't get enough recognition.

MuddledMuppet

Yes

There's still the odd time when riding somewhere there's that beautiful bloom of a sunny day thru the trees and somehow the music hits just the right sweep at just the right moment... love it still

SpiritedBlaize

Yes

I am not a 'gamer' The only video games I have ever had any interest in playing were Oblivion and Skyrim, and now of course ESO. There have been so many things that catch me and make me pause like the heat waves off of a camp fire rippling the scenery behind it or the way the sun glints off the water. I get excited when im due to go back to a place I really appreciated before, like Leki's Blade in Alik'r. There is something so dramatic about that statue in the desert, I get that feeling like I'm visiting the Sphinx in our world.

BlackEar

No

Nope. I like the scenery. I do not embrace it, though.

Maybe I will on an alt at some point.

MornaBaine

Yes

This is truly a gorgeous game. There are only 2 things that could make it better for me. One would be being able to re-enter many of the areas that become locked once you have completed the quest and the other is PLAYER HOUSING. I want my own little gorgeous plot of land in this amazing world to build my home on!

CapnPhoton

Yes

There are a few zones that are not so nice.

But even though I feel a little nerdy for it, I ran around Auridon and Reaper's march looking for places that I would build a house if they were real.

ladyonthemoon

Yes

Not just doing this but always enjoying the scenery, architecture, people beside playing quests.

NewBlacksmurf

Yes

I really think that's one of the biggest reasons I play this
-scenery
-character creation (visuals)

KewaG

Yes

Elden Root in Grahtwood is still one of the most amazing things I've seen in the game but the earth forge is also at the top of that list. Sometimes I wander around just taking screen shots of all the nice scenery and sometimes I just have to stop and admire the work and thought that must have gone into some of the areas. I love this game.

UrQuan

Yes

So far that's the majority of what I've been doing in Orsinium.

shikako

I love early mornings and seeing the sunrise over the water/near docks. So far Auridon is my favorite place. Though I haven't made it too far into the game yet. I take tons of screenshots too.

Uriel_Nocturne

Yes

All the time.

I heavily RP my characters, so sometimes just strolling through the countryside as his form of "taking a break" can lead to breath-taking moments.

There's something about a sunrise/sunset at the end of an ash storm in Stonefalls that just makes me appreciate my love of the Dunmer all over again.

ZigaZuzek

No

I would LOVE TO but the loading screens are just too long now, so I avoid travelling as much as I can.

Danikat

Yes

Yes. I sometimes think I spend more time admiring (and climbing/falling off) the scenery than anything else.

PrinceBoru

Yes

Just started Cadwell's Gold.
Auridon is beautiful!
Since starting the final Cadwell quests I've slowed down.
Much more fishing and just riding around taking in the sites.
The great soundtrack combined with the grand vistas is very soothing to me.

americansteel

Yes

skyrim is by far a better looking game however ESO is a good looking game in itself.

craglorn
alikr desert
east march
reapers march
glenumbra


but I will point this out. when I go to first person I use breath of life I look at the little stars at the bottom of my TV and look at the sky I think morrowind.

NovaMarx

Yes

I often stop up to take it all in. And I have a million screenshots! I just want to capture all the beautiful areas and moments

CherryCake

Yes

I tend to do that all the time, especially in Auridon!

GRRRR I get so mad about these! Not even so much around the 'borders' of a zone, but right smack dab in the middle of a zone, just so that I can't hop up a cliffside, I have to do the typical ES process of running for days around a mountain to get to a point 10 yards away!

SHADOW2KK

Yes

Aye I do, a lot:D

ESO on ultra settings is by far a better looking game than un-modded Skyrim. Now Skyrim with graphics mods is another story entirely... But it's always going to be possible to make graphics better on a single player game than an MMO.

Exactly @stojekarcub18_ESO. I get boarders... but within those boarders there should be NO place I can't go.

No, it's not.

ultra settings on ESO looks no where near as good as skyrim did on 360
I just looked at ultra settings.

A good werewolf hunter admires and knows their hunting grounds.

I love the water, and on the beach. Oh my goodness, running through the shoreline on various mounts is just cool.
