Have voted Summerset but haven't done Blackwood yet, just got a companion. I was waiting for the enhanced version (PS5) to see it in all its glory

Haven’t done Blackwood yet but Summerset ticked almost all the boxes for me.

A beautiful zone that I still spend hours in just exploring, a fun and interesting story with beloved characters, some amazing side quests and bringing in a much needed crafting skill with jewelry crafting.

The only real downside is that the Psijic skill line left me very disappointed especially compared to the new classes that Morrowind and Elsewyr brought (My main is now a Necromancer with my secondary being a Warden).

Orsinium

Easiest ESO poll ever.

Honourable mentions though; Wrothgar (would of been my second answer) and then clock work and the reach.

I voted Elsweyr because of dragons, the best of "world events" for me. The zone and story are nice too and the fur stocks come back is kinda cool, and I liked that they retconned them a little . Like less "subsidiary" and useless furstocks, and I hope the ohmes are gone forever or will be something else than a furstock, they were the weirdest *** ever lol.

But the best story for me was Orsinium because for once it wasn't "SAVE THE WORLD (again. damn that year 582 is really hardcore.) FROM THE REALLY EVIL AND ULTRA EPIC ENNEMY FROM OBLIVION/LEGENDS/DISTANT PAST !"

I cannot vote as Blackwood is still ongoing, have to wait until Q4.

Summerset was the last truly amazing expansion. Everything else after that has had flaws that outweighed whatever good things came from them. Elsweyr was a disappointment but the zone is pretty in it's own way, Greymoor feels incredibly empty with a very poor story but has antiquities, and Blackwood is once again repeating the year long story thing which is kinda getting very annoying at this point. It's forcing all the stories to be exactly the same, or at least all feel the same. Like some kind of old school TV show like the A-Team that follows the same formula every single time.

The only ones I'm not really a fan of are Greymoor and Blackwood. They just don't feel as complete as the others, you know. It's like they stopped trying as hard.

My vote is Morrowind. It's what brought me back to ESO, and not just for the nostalgia. Compared to other chapters, it released a lot of new content.
- Warden. My favourite class compared to all the others.
- Battlegrounds. Straight into the action with none of that boring 5 minute horse ride to the next keep.
- Large land mass with plenty of things to do and explore
- Interesting story arc that kept me engaged.
- Fun side quests (Scarlet Judge!)
- Pickpocketing NPCs for motifs is now a thing.
- Useful craftable sets. Shacklebreaker still holds its own, and Assassins is a fun unique set too.
- Forgotten Wastes still one of the best places for grinding XP. I also dig the volcanic and cult theme.

Wrothgar.

The story was good (it didn't have the daedra du jour behind it), public dungeons done right - still among the best non-instanced places to grind XP to this day , a lot of thought and care went into the geography and landscapes, memorable [to me] side quests and characters, challenging WBs (one of them really tricky to solo without the devs giving it cheesy 1-shot mechanics).

All in all the expansion I am most fond of and one that if it wasn't for the whole Maelstrom Arena weapon fiasco would be untarnished.

So much Wrothgar.

One of the better pieces of MMO gaming in the past 10 years.

It's always a toss up for me - Summerset or Morrowind. Summerset takes the cake this time because it's so beautiful and easier to get around. The locales are beautiful and the architecture is stunning. The main quest in this zone was really good, the crafting area is my home. The abyssal fonts were fun to do.

Morrowind has better side quests, probably the best in the game IMO. There's really varied landscapes and the public dungeons are incredibly layered. I like the additional ways of travel with the Silt Striders and boats, makes getting around the harsher landscapes a little easier. It introduced the Warden, which became my main.

Elsweyr is good too, I can't think of much bad to say about it. Again, there's a lot of layered landscapes, beautiful areas with dense foliage and a sense of history. The story and feel here are really good, reminds me of something out of an Indiana Jones movie. I really like getting a free house as part of the storyline, wish that would be a staple of each expansion.

All three of these expansions had good armor skins too, so that's an added bonus.

Greymoor just...I don't know...it was bland for me. The city layout of Solitude was strange and disjointed, too many doors. The zone itself just didn't speak to me, even as someone who loves mountains and nordic culture. That whole release cycle wasn't ZOS's best moment either, particularly with the pandemic, so that soured it too. Markarth was an improvement and is a cool city, I just don't see myself going back there. The addition of the solo arenas and antiquities was appreciated though.

Blackwood is alright so far. I don't like some of the clingy NPCs in the delves and dungeons, but other than that I'm not put off by the expansion. The zone itself is cool, has good music, and the quests so far are interesting. I'm not too far in though, so we'll see how my opinion evolves.

Lolz, Craglorn

Voted for Summerset but would agree with some here that Orsinium was one of the greatest expansions ZOS ever made in ESO^^
DB and TG Expansions also were very good, especially the guild-questlines and they gave you a whole bunch of new things to do in all of Tamriel with those two DLCs

Orsinium is number one… but Summerset is the best on the list.
