How to rewatch the opening sequence?

Willow · March 2014

I used search but cannot find the answer? I would like to watch the opening again. Is there a way without watching it on youtube?

I don't think there is (yet). All you could do is create another character and the game shows you the intro again.

Or you can navigate trough the folders of the game: The Elder Scrolls Online (if you're in Europe: The Elder Scrolls Online EU) - Depot - Video's. And open that file in a .bik file player.

Hope this helps

It should reply each time you log on. Just hit any key to skip.

The question was "...without watching it on youtube?"

OKOK I got it.. the opening cinematic is a .bik file and can be played with a BIK player.

BIK player: http://www.softsea.com/download/BIK-Player.html
and opening cinematic is in (for me) C:\Program Files (x86)\Zenimax Online\The Elder Scrolls Online\depot\Video

I just did it since I missed the opening myself by skipping it and no longer have the option of playing it.

Don't know if it works because cant login due to offline maintenance, but found this

go to \\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live

Open Usersettings and change the below line to 1???

SET SkipPregameVideos "1"

Actually, I believe the line after the SkipPregameVideos needs to be changed to see the video again:
SET HasPlayedPregameVideo "0"
