    I don't think ESO is the best mmo for 2016, but the best IMPROVED mmo in 2016. 1-tamriel was a huge leap forward for me. Although I haven't logged in a while, since I need to cut 80.000 logs in BDO to craft a sailboat, I really look forward to continue by journey soon.

    I already pre-ordered the Morrowind expansion physical CE just to show my support for this game. ESO is gradually improving for most aspects. Now to fix PvP because I am turning slowly into a PvE peasant. (balancing has to improve before morrowind because 4*4*4 arena's will rely more on balanced classes then open world PvP imho)

    "I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."

    There's definitely one thing worth noting about ESO winning this award: People who play ESO almost all love the game!

    Even the people that badmouth it 24/7 or have criticisms over the game (whether over new content or bugs/lag) still enjoy itall the time. Complaints are there to improve ESO and keep it great. Personally I think it's well-deserved award. They've created a phenomenal Elder Scrolls MMO.

    Overtime ZOS has managed to introduce most all of their needed bug fixes as well as the Thieves Guild/Dark Brotherhood guilds and Imperial City which is very fitting TES content. The scaling changes with One Tamriel were enormous too.

    Essentually the days of fixing a million questing bugs and implementing fundamental changes to the game like with One Tamriel has finally passed. In the future I expect them to fully focus on new content, quarterly balance changes, and performance improvements. Pretty optimistic tbh :)

    Definately a well deserved win. After 3 years I still enjoy ESO as much as those beta days!

    On an overall view, nothing comes even close to ESO in terms of a mix of gameplay, quests, exploring, very rich lore, systems and yes even PVP! Love ESO! Grats ZOS!

    Its hilarious that EVE only had 4% of the vote.

    EVE won MMO of the year for like 5 years straight on there, before ESO took over.

    Also, the Alpha Clone update wasn't as well received as One Tamriel - not because of Alpha Clones from what I heard but from other things added around it.

    Interesting observation, and yes it probably an factor, question is more how many voted on mmorpg.

    Grinding just make you go in circles.

    Perhaps just a little. But ESO got twice as many votes as the second place, and I bet it would have won even without a concome community backing it up.

    Complete assumption on my part....but there are around 60 million plus ppl on either PS4 or Xbox one who can see videos of actual gameplay

    Then there are a good bit on PC only who problably tried this and other games.

    It's just more ppl in terms of the possible audience so it's going to always win.

    My observation is how swayed the poll is thinking about active subscribers or paying customers for each.

    I actually did a LOL when I saw the poll cause I thought to myself, thats kinda close considering how many more millions are exposed to it due to consoles. (You don't have to buy it to play it if it's being shared digitally between consoles)

    Is mmorpg even a reputable site anymore? If so than that's pretty cool

    It is a very active site and quite comprehensive.

    If that's the case, then Zeni is the smarter company for having the wisdom to bring this game to a wider audience.

    Yes, I saw that an console version was very important for ESO simply as the MMO competition is way lower on consoles.
    They probably knew that PS4 / One would be strong enough to run it and they did not want an huge ability bar anyway so it was pretty easy to adjust. It might have cost us on ability slot.

    They are no better or worse than any other Video game developer, I worked with many over my long years before I retired, what I use to find Ironic is how the gaming community will cheer certain dev houses that had this little guy/super ethical reputation and they were just as greedy just and dismissive of what people wanted and they were backed by Venture Capitalist that had their fingers in some very very unethical things.

    Business always has and always will be like that. I look at individuals at a company not the company and in my view ZoS, Anet, and Turbine/Standing Stone has some good eggs working for them.

    But opinions are like eye teeth and nothing counts on the internet.

    Some of these games are really old. I guess it kind of highlights that good mmos don't come along often.
    Asheron's Call is older than 90% of Call of Duty's player base.
