Hello everyone.
Hope your having a good day. :)

I just have a question about ESO on consoles and PC.


My friends birthday is coming up soon, she loves Skyrim and Elder Scrolls. She doesn't have ESO yet, but she has shown interest in it.
I'm considering whether or not to buy ESO as a birthday present for her. But here is the thing, she plays on Xbox.

So the question. Could she and I still play together even though we are on different machines? I'm on PC.


So can Xbox and PC still game together? Please say yes, I sure hope so.

    Alright thanks for the info. :)
    Maybe a dump question but does a laptop count as a PC? So that people with laptop and PC can game together?

    And lastly, a bit unrelated. But are the system requirements for WoW Legion and ESO about the same? Except that ESO requires a bit more space. My friend has WoW but she hesitates at getting any new game in fear of it maybe running poorly.

    Yes it does! A laptop is a portable pc so you should have no problem playing along/against a laptop player. Same goes for MAC.

    No, sorry, and even on PC if one is EU and the other is NA, then no

He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Each system is proprietary and has their own servers. The general consensus of the console users is that they would never want to be able to play cross platform with PC even if it became available because PC has access to Add-ons.
    I'm not prejudiced; I hate everyone equally !

    And PC players would not want to play with console for the same reason


    Oh. PS yes laptop is a PC, but wow, you would really have to have a classy laptop to handle ESO.

    They are about the same, altho ESO runs with better textures.
