All the things I love about this game

Tired of all the whining , thought it was time for some positivity.
The higher levels you go, the more the masses thin out, bots get sparcer and it becomes more immersive.
the feeling of accomplishment when I finally down that ridiculously hard boss... on level.
the feeling of amazment as I put my guts up off the floor when I think I can solo an elite boss.
Just running around with the sound turned up high, adventuring, finding chests, seeing what is over that hill, running like heck from the tough mobs out of my level
The feeling of attachment to my main char and watching her grow and become strong.
The hours spent planning out abilities, worrying about spending the points wrongly, watching as your decisions pan out right
The simple UI, at first detested, now when I go back to my other mmos I am like..wtf.. all this mess on my UI gotta go
The lack of dps meters and elitism
The random npc comments as you run by, or interact with them. Sometimes it startles me to hear a deep 'hello' in the woods.
Some of the emotes are hilarious, role playing with them can be a hoot.
Grouping with my friends and guild in dungeons and quests, making it thru wipes and succeeding
Getting that skyshard fix. its like crack
Some landscapes are stunning, watching the moons rise on a cliff is breath taking.
Just clip clopping along on my mount, not rushing, the way it balks if I try to force it over rough terrain is very life like.
there is something satisfying about that scraping sound as you harvest runes.
to me ESO is a quiet game I can spend hours doing my thang in, I can also crank up vent for some silly times with guildies and family. I am finding it harder to log into my other games as I want to be here, on my toon adventuring

✭Agreed.
Love the way the world looks. Not so much Coldharbour and Morrowind, but Black Marsh and Skyrim, and especially Cyrodiil, for sure. The visual appeal of the environment is awesome.
I love the open feel, how long it takes me to run across an entire country. The hidden niches and mysterious views if you get off the main drag.
I like the world. Sure, this is Elder Scrolls, but there are very rarely good guys and bad guys. Just variants of people with their own motivations and goals, sometimes at odds with others.
The music and sound is pretty damn good. Not an audiophile, but I'm enjoying it all the same.
I love the crafting. From gathering to building, I like the variety of styles and designs!
Ruze Aulus. Mayor of Dhalmora. Archer, hunter, assassin. Nightblade.
Gral. Mountain Terror. Barbarian, marauder, murderer. Nightblade.
Na'Djin. Knight-Blade. Knight, vanguard, defender. Nightblade.
XBOX NARuze is a veteran of the PC Beta, lived through the year one drought, survived the buy-to-play conversion, and has stepped foot in the hells known as Craglorn. He mained a nightlbade when nightblades weren't good, and has never worn a robe. He converted from PC during the console betas, and hasn't regretted it a moment since.
He'd rank ESO:TU (in it's current state) a 4.8 out of 5, loving the game almost entirely.
This is an multiplayer game. I should be able to log in, join a dungeon, join a battleground, queue for a dolmen or world boss or delve, teleport in, play for 20 minutes, and not worry about getting kicked, failing to join, having perfect voice coms, or being unable to complete content because someone's lagging behind. Group Finder and matchmaking is broken. Take a note from Destiny and build a system that allows from drop-in/drop-out functionality and quick play.1 -
Moonchilde✭✭✭I love thinking about all the content, ideas, and stories they did NOT include at release, that they will be able to draw upon with content expansions in the future. I do not hyper-play to end game, i take my time, so knowing this makes me feel really hopeful about having such a great game for years to come.0
