later next month before it’s playable during PAX East.

I'm on console, no PTS. This sounds to me like I can try Necro & new content out when I go to PAX East.

Wicked Awesome!

You can

I'm very excited for the Necromancer Class! I hope that its very flexible and effective as much as it is thematically engaging!

Are they allowed to bring a +1?

Technically I'm bringing +2 but I think that's a special accommodation since I can't exactly kick them out yet...
[edit] to clarify in case people don't get the joke... I'm pregnant with twins. Not actually bringing 2 full grown humans. lol

Oh so all those glasses of wine you drink while streaming are really water?

So does this mean that there wont be open beta like morrowind? Only a select few people who I never heard of and some that even though they try builds out I have never used one they created. I would like to have the chance like I did on the morrwind beta to create my stamhealer. Now I get to some good ol' favortism to what? A website that is toxic to nearly everybody out there. So sad that you took away someone who has subbed since the beginning and was looking forward to being able to theorycraft with it. Dont know of many people that decided to come play or buy the game because of them but I do know people that began playing because of your playerbase. Show them that appreciation.

Most players ZOS listed are truly amazing including @MissBizz , @xynode , @Dottzgaming and @Woeler

And 99% of players who play and support the game are just average. You'd get more accurate feedback if a host of random players were picked. May be why so much of new content goes completely ignored. But hey, keep on designing dungeons and trials that 99% will NEVER play and making changes that nobody wants....well, except maybe these truly amazing players.

Morrowind had an open beta and to see this not available is actually sad since I have been with the game since the beginning. I dont even know who these people are. I may have seen or heard of one. I do my own theory crafting so never needed someone elses advice on my playstyle. Why would you want to learn their playstyle? I have seen so many people give up because they cant do what they watch ect. I have seen people and guilds stay together when they learn how to play according to their playstyle. Honestly those meta promotions are more toxic to the game then they help.

No, it doesn't. You're just jumping to conclusions.

PTS testing for Morrowind and Summerset started in April and so far they haven't given us any indication that this year will be any different.
This is just an early preview.

My thinking is that Elsweyr will be done much the same as Summerset.

@rsantijw13 both Morrowind and Summerset had a group of players head to Zos pre-pts. This does not mean there won't be a pts

Congrats to all attendants, they sure deserve it for their efforts towards the benefit of the entire community.

Except that this event was done for Morrowind and Summerset too. So congratulations on making the most pointless and obnoxious post in this thread.

No one from the player housing community going? I'm very curious to see what houses will be coming with Elswyr.

Have fun, everyone!

@MissBizz
I got it! Congratulations! I have 12 year old twin boys and they are more than a blessing in our lives, and growing up into fine young men! ❤️

I hope everything goes well for you and you enjoy being a Mom to twins as much as I have!

Just a guess but this one would imagine more information might start to become available when the prologue quest goes live at the end of this month.

Things are complicated. Armed guards and leg irons. He sneaks away but we think they are onto him. Now we are working to convince them that one of us doesn't like side dishes with his dinner. We plan to sneak him out disguised as a side order of mac and cheese. The problem is that the rest of us eat the mac and cheese, first. Hopefully, we can work out the details, but it might take a while.

Hopefully the armed guards are not craving Mac and cheese once you do get it sorted out....

It is a risk. So far, none of the mac and cheese has made it far enough to get to the guard.

You try to distract the town guards with the mac and the cheese? This is not the house of Sheogorath no?

Every good Khajiit knows the doughnuts and beer are the best distraction for the town guard - unless one of you is willing to pickpocket an innocent and run around in circles getting hit so that all the guards have their attention there yes?

Mate...what you talking about....

It's a preview. You think they are going to beta test every single aspect up until release of the chapter? It's the only way if Zenimax doesnt do n open beta.

The developers need every aspect tested when it comes to release. These gamers who are going now might have more on a say on what the abilities are like but come beta the devs can make changes in numbers and slight tweaks after they get an understanding of how each person plays.
