    I'm just playing the base game so I'll look around, possibly look around some more and wonder why I still can't get any decent armour from dolmens, etc. Empty soul gems and a bit of gold does not help my character.

    All this on 22nd of March.

    Best way to get decent armour is to craft it. Deconstruct all the inferior stuff you pick up and upgrade to green or blue, using your preferred set based on the open world crafting stations you've found on your travels, you don't need any better if you're just doing the base game open world PvE content. Being in a guild may enable others to help you but I haven't found that necessary.

    Wait 6-10 hours for the patch to download. Afterwards, I'll login only to see my latency at 999+. CenturyLink, 1.5M DSL, and bandwidth draining smartphones can all go **** themselves.

    A korean game, that means ignored client-server architecture, hacks and bots en masse - i will never again play a korean MMO.

    Will start delving into the Thieves Guild content, of course...

    I've been playing ESO since the early betas. On and off, mostly off. But every now and then I spend a day or a week or a month in Tamriel. The game offers a nice balance between story-driven action, exploration and PvP. Haven't really found any other game equally suitable to my preferences (DAoC was, but it's too old, intolerably old now). Whenever new ESO DLC is coming up, I get all giddy and excited, and that's a lot more than can be said for many other games at my ripe age of 35.

    Thanks to the developers for offering such a nice treat. If the patch goes smoothly (knock knock), I will spend the rest of the evening exploring the new quests and areas.

    It's buy 2 play in Europe. And although it's a Korean game, the NA and Euro servers are not maintained by Koreans.

    so far I like the game, since it has lots of Sandbox elements in it. Sure you can rush out and grind like a maniac. But you can also enjoy the games underlying gems.

    For combat, I prefer TESO's. It's more fluid imho. Also The graphic style of TESO is more clean and is my preferred style.

    But I do like BDO also because:

    - open worlds, no single loading screen.
    - Player housing
    - guild halls
    - cities run by guild
    - Open world PvP, but with penalties for PK'ers
    - Horses don't magickally disappear in your pocket
    - Pets actually have a function (looting, spotting resources etc)
    - Horse breeding
    - Farming of crops
    - Swimming also underwater (although you lose health after a short while)
    - Boats
    - Fishing on every spot you want and has an excellent minigame
    - Afk doesn't boot you out and you can afk some stuff like fishing
    - no (a few which go to not yet implemented area's) invisible walls
    - parcours mode. See a mountain? You can climb it. See a roof? You can climb it
    - You can harvest manually, but you can also hire workers to harvest for you
    - Node system is awesome
    - You don't just kill and animal and get flesh-loot or hide-loot. No, you skin 'm, butcher 'm or drain 'm of blood
    - Player collision: you still walk through other people, but you feel a bump and the characters react on it (looking backwards, move a bit with shoulder) so both players and NPC's don't feel like ghosts
    - Dynamic weather system, which has influence on things you do
    - Night is really dark
    - monster are stronger from 22:00 to 07:00 ingame time
    - towns feel more alive with NPC's doing stuff

    For PvP, I prefer TESO because of the combat system and it's more fluid animations and the fun with castle sieges.

    For PvE, I prefer BDO right now because there is so much to do (and I don't mean quests only but the sandbox stuff I like)

    But I am curious about anything TESO and also the Thievesguild part. The more "extra" the better. And next to thievesguild there is Dark Brotherhood, I read playerhousing and in the next future maybe more.

    Agree with a lot of what you said, but how can somebody like ESO graphics more than BDOs ... It's beyond me :D

    When I'm finally back home (because I have to go out just around the time I estimate the servers will be back) I will:

    - Sort out my inventory a bit more
    - Open my Wrothgar and trial containers (though I'm not really expecting motifs from the Wrothgar ones I was still keeping them)
    - See what changes I want to do to my CP on my vet toons
    - Head to Cyrodiil to see how the skill changes work out.

    Meanwhile, I'll be afk-fishing in BDO.

    @Knootewoot and @SemiD4rkness I like it so far, but the collision thing is a bit annoying. Your character pretty much gets out of their path to bump into other people. I also find the UI very cluttered. Even with the addons I use in ESO, the UI is much cleaner and still tells me all I need to know.

    I had plan many things for ThievesGuild release, but ...yeah..BDO is unexpectedly very addicting.

    However, my first action in ESO, will probably be to test the new group finder! finaly able to set up groups with guildies of various level and be rewarded to play together!

    Agree on that. The UI is very cluttered.

    Funny thing yesterday, I was responsible for someone's death. He was on my raft, probably AFK fishing. I whispered, but he didn't react. So I row out of the harbor and when in open sea he jumps in the water and swims to shore. Halfway he drowned lol. If he only asked I would drop him of at mainland, or he could use his escape teleport.

    I'm only looking forward to seeing how this game runs with a 64-bit client. Being stuck with only a couple gb for memory usage touches me the wrong way.
    'Okay, the question is...(laughter)...the question is, we have Vicious Death sets with Prox Det that are doing double damage from last patch -- they're doing double damage -- and the CP system scales them even more. Prox Dets are doing over 20k, okay? That's before Vicious Death does 15, m'kay? We're talking like 30k+. Okay.
    "So, what about the stamina?" Okay. Um "The 2-handed execute skill--" I'm s--I'm sorry. What? The 2-Handed execute? What?! What am I gonna f***ing do?! Am I gonna execute a f***ing zerg with a 2-Handed slice?!'
