OKAY............

So I have been battling not going to PC or not.

On the PS4 I have like bought all the things from the crown store AND I have a maxed crafting character.....I am CP555.

I like the PC cause of the ADD ONS and like the graphics are amazing..........I just don't know if I want to re-buy all crown store stuff and regrind a character to max in CP........

I want to make a decision before I buy a home and get the Morrowind DLC.......

What would you do in my position.....I feel like if I left the PS4 then I would have wasted all that time and money but then if I go to PC then the graphics will be on point and the ADD ONS will be legit!

HELP ME OUT.

    Stay where your friends are. First rule of gaming.

    If you do decide to make that move, you won't have to deal with PSN and their frequent outages anymore or their "membership fee". So there's a bonus.

    I have it on both. I play mostly on PC, but I play casually on the PS4. I basically use my PS4 account as an alt account. I have a big, nice tv and couch, so I play there when my wife wants to cuddle while she watches her Netflix shows on her tablet.

    Whatever you do, having both versions isn't a bad thing.

    Hmmmm! I didn't think of that being an option.....do you have ESO plus for both or just for your PC account?

    I play both and sometimes have eso plus going on both.

    If pvp is your main focus stick with ps4, it is more competitive than pc now. Pc is just a hacker/macroers playground.

    If you mostly pve then go for pc for all the QOL addons and better graphics.

    I'm not big into sub-fees, so I don't use ESO+. I do however buy the DLCs outright, that way I have them forever. Pretty much, money that would have gone towards the sub fee on one just goes towards the DLC for both. So Zenimax is still getting their money out of me :D

    Suggestion:
    Spend $19.99 and play on PC a bit, if you enjoy it...keep playing
    If you start to play more on PC than PS4, then play more

    You don't loose anything on PS4 and you can always swap back and forth
    I'd suggest to try it now to get a feel prior to June 6th

    I own both PC and Xbox One and play 99.9% on xbox one now
    At one time I did 50-50

    I am on PS4 NA DC.... FRIEND #1

    I have a PC account too, started there during beta. I play it sometimes, but even with addons.. I love my PS4.

    Maybe just try to start a new toon and see if its worth it. I kept both of mine.

    Another nice thing about having it on both systems:

    You can download addons and crank up all the interface options on the PC version (damage numbers, enemy outlines, consolidated auto-looting, etc.) and play in 3rd person mode; but turn all of that off on the PS4 version and run around in 1st person mode.

    Basically play ESO as a MMO on the PC and play ESO like a classic single player TES game on the PS4 without having to constantly change the interface/gameplay settings.

    It almost feels like two completely different games by doing that.

    Just get it for PC. It's not too expensive and see how you like it. I have it on XB1 and PC and play PC exclusively (with XB1 pad). It's just a better experience on PC for me this way.

    Can't beat online games on PC!

    If you just roleplay go pc for higher fps and graphics.

    If you ever pvp ot pve end-game be ready to accept macros, CE and cheaters who get unbanned in 2 days as a part of life.

    Do not give in. Just keep spamming the forums until Zenimax starts selling account transfer services or goes cross-platform.
    End the tedious inventory management game.

    I started on PS4, I switched to PC and now I'm back on PS4. Because the progress I made on PS4 I felt was too much to give up, I did not like starting all over, no gold, no cp, no crafting, finding another guild I fit into, it sucks. It looks and runs great on PC, add-ons etc I just don't have the time to grind again because I play other MMOs as well.
