This is the best game from graphics point of view bar none. The rest is like a cartoons wrt ESO. So I am here for long time until better new graphics MMO will come up. Or probably we will see first virtual reality MMO

Who knows. But Agree with you 100%. The rest MMOs look like junk wrt ESO - graphics is awesome.

Oh oh, I had an Amiga 500 too! Well, it was a family computer, but I used it more than anyone else. It wasn't the first computer I played games on, though, that was a Commodore 64. We were a Commodore/Amiga family until the first generation of Pentiums came out, when I was in high school.

I think it's incredible that you got it to work on an Amiga 500!!

I tip my hat to you twice over; once for ESO respect, and another time for Commodore appreciation!

I just have to say, I would never think a 55yo would write like that

Around since Atari and similar sentiments.

AlienSlof · April 2015

In amongst all the toxic complaint threads, it's nice to see one like this, by someone who just enjoys the game. I'm another oldie, retired now, and this game fills in my alone time wonderfully! I had a break from it for a few months, and came back to it recently - changes such as the justice system and the crafting writs brought me back.

This game beats just sitting, mindlessly mouldering in a chair.

I think it's "young," because if an Amiga 500 was your first computer, you do not qualify as old

8 bit and earlier...

"Bard's Tale" and "Zork" ring any bells?

BigM · April 2015

I agree OP just wish ZoS would have done better at release to now. We have to pray when consoles launch they launch without the problems we had on PC. If it don't we will be saying bye bye to them.

So much beauty in this game and yes the perfect game for RP. :-D

Happy Easter to you as well good sir.

I used to be amazed at the number of people my age (54) playing this game, but not so much anymore after someone did a poll and found out that close to 10% of the people playing are 45 years or older.

jamesharv2005ub17_ESO · April 2015

Im 46

stewhead2ub17_ESO · April 2015

Just turned 48! Game on!

Xendyn · April 2015

54, played Pong on our only color tv in the living room, we were the envy of the neighborhood cause we had little black and white tvs in our bedrooms.
Spent all my money on rolls of quarters in the video arcades in my late teen years lol
Anyone remember Dragon's Lair?

*shakes cane*
Now get off my lawn!

ers101284b14_ESO · April 2015

I think that is more than a statement.

cyqa · April 2015

Yay

I really enjoy ESO as well- it really is quite a beautiful game.

Armitas · April 2015

Been playing since the "Texas instrument TI-99". Games have come soooo farrr.

KhajitFurTrader · April 2015

I'm 45, earliest gaming experiences were made on the original Atari VCS, later Apple ][e, Atari 5600, Commodore C64 (Brotkasten), and Amstrad/Schneider CPC, before switching to a self-build PC AT in the late 80s (who remembers the N.E.A.T. chipset?). Stayed with the DOS/Windows/Intel posse up until Vista, the Windows ME of its time, was released. Switched to OS X on the Mac in the late 2000s, haven't regretted it since.

ESO is one of the gems out there. It deliberately leaves the trodden tracks of post-WoW MMOs behind, and strives to be its own thing. I'm glad it exists and enjoy it tremendously.

52 and gardening!

My first computer was a Vic-20 my dad bought me with a tape drive. At the time there were no games available so I bought a book of basic games which would work on the vic and put each line in myself. Saved on a magnetic tape for future use.

nimander99 · April 2015

I had a Commodore 64 wooot

Tandor · April 2015

I'm a lot older than the OP and had played the Sinclair Spectum and Commodore 64 before I got my Amiga 500, I think I probably had an Atari ST before the Amiga too. I'd have got my first PC about 25 years ago.

I agree entirely with the OP's assessment of the game. I love the graphics, voice-overs, solo and co-operative play and the whole immersive ES elements. I've had no significant performance issues. It's a great game, and has been since launch so far as I'm concerned.

I'm curious about which language you learned first. Did you learn German, Spanish, or Danish first?

I'm only fluent in English, but I enjoy learning other languages. I only know some Castilian Spanish, but I'm still not yet fluent in that.

<-- 54 and 3/4

TheShadowScout · April 2015

Made in 1972, started my gaming experience on a friends Atari 800, before getting my very own Amiga (the first one) to really get into it, and have been playing a lot since then, following the tech trend to PC over the times. Not nearly played everything, not played all the time, but still a good selection.

And I agree, ESO is wonderful.
I love the grafics, especially for the realistic-ish feel - no overblown armor or oversized impractical swords here, the characters looks fit the immersion and are not cartoonish like some other games that coudl be mentioned which I always avoided for this very reason.
The voices... well, yes, one can sometimes recognize a voice from one named character in some unimportant NPC... but I guess some allowances must be made. I still find it good enough, even though there are some games who do one better with the player character also being fully voiced - but considering how much that'd boost the gamesize... good enough.
The gameplay... some whine about the limited number of skill slots, but I love that feature, since it makes me concentrate more on the action and not on a huge selection of buttons to click... and with champion system and justice, it has gotten better for me as well.
The story... is really neat, not that I expected anything less from TES settings. Sure, its not quite as free-range as TES games have been known to be, and sure, there could be a lot of improvements made, but this is an MMO, and for that its pretty neat in my opinion.
Singleplayer has lots of questing, and cyrodil was a completely new experience for PvP for me, and a pleasent one despite its often quoted faults.
Alltogether, it is my favorite so far, and I sincirely hope that in fullness of time all the little details that make me think "this could be better" might be improved. Some I have seen going that way already in my time here.
So, count me down for a vote of "great and looking to get better"...
...and for many thankings to the people who brought us this!

pitufo · April 2015

This answer goes to Khalhys...
First learned danish, cause i was born in copenhagen (DK), than german cause i growed up in hamburg (Germany) and the last 30 years i lived in spain, so it was time for spanish....
