You have to create a unique and yet honest commercial for The Elder Scrolls Online. It will be aired on live TV. Describe your idea of the best commercial for TESO.
Mine starts out with a black screen that is static for a few seconds. Moments later a deep dark voice filled with hatred and loathing begins to speak. The voice says, " The skins of those you love will fly as my Banners " (Molag Bal)
The scene begins with a greatsword wielding Nord with a horned helmet fighting desperately against waves and waves of undead in shin-deep snow. Beneath him and all around his feet are his comrades lying dead in a circle as they tried to fend off their foes from every angle before taking their last breath.
The aforementioned Nord is tired and breathing heavily as he twirls around his sword with great might to knock back the undead creatures if only to buy himself a few more seconds of life. The wind picks up and his tattered cloak reacts to the sudden gust. He can't go on any more after a final last ditch three hundred sixty degree slash with his giant sword. The undead are suppressed once again but begin closing in as our Nordic hero drops to both knees.
Just then on a nearby hill an unfamiliar helmet begins to emerge as it reveals a tall slender Altmer wearing very regal battle mage armor. He has a staff with a pulsating purple crystal within the top of it and raises it as high as possible which in turn causes the wind to pick up. The Altmer shouts loudly in his native tongue and his voice echoes across the tundra in a supernatural manner. The undead horde begins to slow down as does the Nord in the center of their kill zone. Time comes to a stop and all of the creatures are frozen in place. The Altmer's staff flashes brightly with a purple light so brilliant it would force any creature to shield its eyes as he lets out another echoing command. The Undead are ripped away from the Nord they are surrounding as time comes back. Undead bodies are shattered in this explosive time transition.
The Altmer lowers his staff and looks to the Nord who begins rising to his feet with aid of his sword as a pillar in the ground. The screen goes black again and Elder Scrolls Online text appears with the Summerset isles backdrop coming into view along with its release date.

✭✭✭✭✭I would spend tons of money creating a ridiculous hyper-realistic cinematic that looked nothing like actual gameplay footage and featured characters using both magicka and stamina abilities simultaneously in a way that would never be viable for endgame content. Maybe a drawn out three way fight scene where everyone turned into zombies afterwards while hoards of undead march towards the imperial city to farm their molag kena helms.Edited by Yolokin_Swagonborn on April 4, 2018 11:51PM13 -

✭✭✭✭✭I'm just gonna say I love the Cinematics. Especially the Dark Anchor one. More cinematics, please. I could watch a whole movie of those.
If I had to do a gameplay trailer, I'd probably choose a dungeon or PVP and highlight teamwork and group effort.1 -
VaranisArano✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭For Cyrodiil PVP, my trailer would feature ganking, sieging keeps, bombing a zerg, organized raids destroying a disorganized zerg, small group v small group, 1vX, dueling, bridge farming, Remember the Chalamo, crowning/dethronong an emperor and all the things I love about PVP.
Problem is, for it to be an honest trailer, I'd have to include lag, loading screens, and disconnects. Here's hoping that Update 18 really does bring server improvements to PVP!0 -
ArtCommissions✭✭✭I’ll feature a grown adult in office suit, lunching in a park. Kids are playing with sticks and boards killing imaginary dragon.
Fast forward to night time, said adult tucks in kids. Lights coming from underneath the study room door. Scene switches to adult playing eso killing dragons and talking to guildies, just like the kids.
I’m targeting grown adults, who can be potential whales in the game and buy crown crates.
*Noted the incoming pitchforks and torches outside my window x)6 -

That's awesome.
I had a similar moment when I was running around on my horse waiting for my PVP raid to start. When I was little, I played all sorts of Barbie riding games, where Barbie ran around with horses.
Now that I'm older, my Dunmer noblewoman rides around on her horse and slaughters her enemies with a battleaxe. Being an adult is awesome.1 -

DeadlyPhoenix✭✭✭✭✭It opens showing two people approaching a vendor selling mystery chests. One player is dressed in awesome, shiny, elite armor, the other in prisoner's rags.
You see the elite guy hand over a bag full of golden keys to the vendor and the vendor gives the guy a ton of big chests to open!
The hobo looking fellow hands the vendor a single silver key and receives one small chest in return.
The elite guy starts opening his chests, throwing junk upon junk upon trash to the side.
The prisoner opens his one small chest and gets an elite ultra rare shiny elite, damn near one of a kind item.
The screen turns black and letters appear saying "Try your luck?"2 -
Tasear✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Use the visuals from warden preview
start off with some cryptic dark voice
" Create your own adventure"
Some fashy visuals of different ascepts of game. Show housing with elite decor but enough to show it's done by player. Have a guy stealing, running from guards. A guy with lots gold. Some fights in cydrolli with closing on some one sitting on throne with work cult personality.
" Play as you want"
Some some fights scenes with different weapons. Show a intense sense city of San with guy tanking 20 attronachs. Show part go from 0 to 100 health to close the sceen.
That's what I can think of off top of my headm0 -
klowdy1✭✭✭✭✭47 minutes of my reaction, filmed from the perspective of my monitor looking at me while playing summerset (spoiler: it's mostly a blank one, without any emotion or life).0 -
Argruna✭✭✭2 words.
Uncle Sheo.
That's it, commerical done. As for a different commercial, I've always loved this one from GW2. Seeing something similar from ESO could easily be managed.

IndianaGeoff✭✭✭I would use the graphics from another game, talk about it being free to play but you are not able to pay to win. Hire a super model and ex-action movie star to walk around and talk about the game.
You were talking about doing a Facebook ad... right?Edited by IndianaGeoff on April 5, 2018 1:49AM0 -

I think the more accurate question, assuming he purchased ESO, is "Do you pay ZOS to make us work for them for free?"

Revelzdevelz✭✭✭Since there isnt much out there anyway....come play ESO since MMOS ruined your single player game enjoyment like the Internet ruined your *** tastes.0

✭I already made the perfect ESO commercial but it's banned on the Forums due to too much Fengrush swearing.
edit: nevermind, I see @SaKGEE already posted it. thank you good sir, and may the moderators spare youEdited by MisterBigglesworth on April 5, 2018 5:07AMReally we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭If Khajiit were to be in charge of marketing Tamriel as a holiday destination then she would probably show many happy khajiit, bountiful sweetrolls, warm sands, friendly taverns and no elves at all.
This it is why, possibly, Khajiit she is not in charge of the marketing ...
