Too bad the game is god awful.

I'm guessing you've never played it.

zRude4442d ago

Its awful no matter you played it or not...

Except it's gotten mostly positive feedback from the beta testers especially after the last round and early access players are loving it too. Having played it as well I can agree that it is fun to play but you're not giving any vaild reasons as to why it's 'awful' so I'm guessing you have never played it.

I saw videos of it, and honestly had a chance to get into the beta but found myself not even wanting to. Especially after seeing my brother play some, which he too found lackluster. Despite both of us being avid Elder Scrolls fans.

It just doesn't look great, don't know what they were thinking when they decided to sink all this money into an MMO.

It could turn out alright, but they have a ways to go.

He has a point, I was in the BETA and boy I hated it... It's too BLAND.

I played 3 of the beta weekends and the game never grabbed me. I love the ES games and was hoping this would be a multiplayer version of that, but I was disappointed.

OT:

I love the modding community! :)

cant agree more. after thousands of hours put into the Elder Scrolls IP i frankly dont want to play this.
everything feels off and weird and there is nothing that grabs me. it feels like wow in the gameplay and it really shouldnt.

i still play Skyrim on a weekly basis and even Oblivion from time to time. love the series, love the lore and all the gods and realms. but this game is not for the fans. its an MMO game that some hints of elder scroll taste in it yet is still just an MMO.

when 5 full beta weekends cant pull in an elder scrolls fan then they are doing it wrong.

i guess its back to Skyrim for me then.

I actually love ESO. I would bet my right nut 99% of the people here would play it to death if it was f2p, and most probably want the game to fail fast so that it goes the f2p route a la eq2, kotor, dconline, etc.
