Question in regard to having both pc and console versions.

Ohnooze

So I bought the whole package for ps5 but the frame rate and graphics are so bad that I loaded up my pc version while I wait for the ps5 to get it's patch.

So can i in play my pc characters on the console or am I going to have to start over when the patch hits for consoles?

It is not possible to transfer characters, gear, gold, crowns or items between different accounts, servers, or platforms.

You have to start all over again. Console versions and PC version are not connected and never will be.

Hmm... Thanks for the replies.

That's unfortunate. Honestly I wish I had not bought the console version at all now.

I guess the big question is "how will it compare to the pc"...

That is a shame. I have seen character transfers between servers in other games. I guess crossing platforms is more challenging.

The Console Enhanced version will be almost as good as the best PC version you get from ZOS. I don’t really see a huge difference here in the end. Unless you have a very very good gaming PC you will be better off with ESO on Series X or PS5 after June.

We will see. Right now the difference is really night and day imo. The advantage to ps5 is that it supports HDR. I like playing on both to be honest but I just can't play it on console in it's current state.

What’s your issue with it? I’m playing on Series X and I experience zero issues besides the ones that are solely caused by the wonky game engine or ZOS‘ servers.

Couple things.
The biggest is the frame rate. If you have played pc it's damn hard to go back to console.

Also the graphics quality.

It's just a different experience.

Even though I have a decent pc I really prefer to play more action oriented games on console. Eso is not a tab target type of game so it fits consoles imo.
