Haven't played it

Got it, but waiting to finish Cadwell's Gold to give a verdict.

Haven't played it

I'm going to buy it just because the arena sounds fun and its another option to keep me playing due to the lag in Cyrodiil atm (or so I hope).

EDS604

Love it!

Not until they do something about the falsely advertised Imperial City... Make it a real pvp dlc

Love it!

Orsinium is a great DLC. The quests with puzzles are a blast to do. I hope future DLC's are as fun as this one is.

Fix the BoP.

Love it!

The story is good, the World Bosses are challenging and fun to fight and Maelstrom Arena is a good place to level and test builds.

I voted could be better, but as far as the new zone itself, it is really a nice piece of DLC. It is beautiful and really has a Skyrim feel. The story-line is engaging, the dungeons/delves are probably the best of any zone yet. The WB/Delve daily quests are a really cool idea. I have been taking my time with it and have really enjoyed it. So for that aspect of it, bravo! The problem is that once I am done, I am not sure there is a whole lot of replayability (is that a word).

My issues is really only three letters, BoP. There are a couple new sets I would like to try, but everything is BoP. I have many duplicates, but not enough for a full set of any new gear (and dont get me started on the v15 drops for a v16 player). They do it to get people to buy the DLC, but ultimately I think it is self defeating. As I have said before, let the content sell itself because it is high quality. Encourage your loyal player base to re-run the content because it gives rewarding gear to be sold. They only thing worth anything from a gold perspective is raw v16 mats. Farming is not really what I have in mind for sustainable new content.

Same holds true for Maelstrom. There are some fun sets in here, but its all BoP. Instead of making the runs rewarding from a monetary perspective, the place acts as a gold sink for 95% of people. IMO, even the weapons should be BoE or at least exchangeable for other weapons. The number of runs required to get 1-2 weapons you actually want is statistically outrageous. I am 100% not calling for a nerf, but the reward system needs serious rethinking.

Love it!

I haven't completed all of the quests/public dungeons/etc in it yet, but I absolutely love it. It's by far my favorite zone in the game. If this is a sign of future DLCs I'll definitely be a *happy camper*

Preyfar

Love it!

Orsinium should be the standard to which all ESO DLC is judged.

It's just that good.

see this would've been I love it if it wasn't for the BoP issue and Lack of group content.

Enemy-of-Coldharbour

Love it!

Loved it. Wish it were bigger (farmers pick it clean too fast) with more quests.

obscure7

Love it!

The content itself is fantastic. A+ work overall on the content.

The only negative things for me are: the BoP issue (as has been mentioned here and in-game quite often), and some of the multi-layered RNG at work with the Maelstrom weapons, new sets, and even zone achievements.

Mazio

Could be better

The BoP combined with layers upon layers of RNG have put quite a downer on what otherwise would be awesome content, for me at least.

If they remove all this BoP nonsense and release more DLC of this quality I'll be very happy though.

Nebthet78

Love it!

I love the Orsinium Content myself.

The only things I am finding that I do not like is the forced Battleleveling, even when you are V16, the stealth nerfs (like the increased cost to Block and Sprinting), and the BoP crap.

nimander99

Love it!

Yeah, only thing I don't like about Orsinium is everything is BoP...

acw37162

PS4 player so I won't see any of it till Wednesdaybut if looking for group tool now functions I will love it just for that.

Pangnirtung

Love it!

My only complaint about Orsinium... I wish there were more of it.

Artheiron

Love it!

special thanks for this that's what I'm talking about ZoS. That was epic.

Elloa

Love it!

I truely love Orsinium. this is the kind of content I'm execting from ESo. That + group Dungeon of the same quality than WhiteGold Tower and Imperial Prison.

gen_reynard2050

I hate it!

hate it...because it need to pay..

Flameheart

Love it!

Although I am more a group player and raider, I have to admit, that this is really well made solo content with some sparkles of group play (world bosses).

The storyline and plot, the visuals especially the orsimer architecture, the quests, the sound and background audio theme, the atmosphere of the entire zone and at last the possibility for daylies (to level long forgotten skills), pretty tough world bosses and the solo arena, forces me to rate that by an "A".

Do yourself a favor Zenimax and just locate one or two group dungeons there in one of your next updates, so this beautiful zone won't be forgotten.

Love it!

I do. I just wish I wasn't forced to grind the content endlessly to have a chance at some drops.

Max crafting nodes rate is too low for a pay zone

Love it!

I love it, this zone is just awesome! It's a great mix (visually) between High Rock and Skyrim, and that's exactly where it is.

I love it; from the icy rocks in the north-east that glitter in the sun, down to the lush green woods and meadows which look extremely natural in the south-west. It feels fantastic to explore the whole area.

The entire north coast from west to east reminds me a lot of Skyrim's (the game's) north coast but even more beautiful! It's the same coast, btw.

Wrothgar is incredible nicely done! Orsinium (the city) is very large and I get lost every now and then (I guess I'm looking at the map a lot more often in this city than in any other entire zone^^). But the devs put a lot of work in it as well, it's great!

The dungeons are awesome, and besides of the public ones, even delves have a complete new style, they're all unique. And when you enter the entrance of the Arena (the desert part), you'll know the Arena itself must be incredible. And you won't get disappointed! The only thing that's a bit of a shame is that I cannot walk around admiring the details, well, because of the ongoing combat

So yeah, I love it!

$30 for this content? I bought the entire Imperial Edition for less than double that money.

No thanks.

Rohaus

Love it!

Though I love it... It is PvE and as such will only keep me interested for a short while... I am hoping for a PvP update that will be similarly as awesome and not anything like IC.
