    So.... How was it?

    I played the pc beta a year ago and it was full of bugs and coming from skyrim the only elder scrolls game I have ever played I thought it was really bad. Plus I'm not really a pc gamer.

    Then a year on I get a ps4 beta code and there has been serious work done to combat and other gameplay mechanics making the game 100 times better than when I played it first.

    Nothing felt strange to me everything felt like skyrim but being a mmo which I also never played before some things I couldnt get my head around. Loved everything the beta offered.
    Pre ordered imperial edition and can't wait for June 9th

    Like yourself i really enjoyed it. I found that it worked very well 1 or 2 small issues noting major and to be expected. I enjoyed the missions and the leveling up system also, I per-ordered it and will be pouring many hours into it

    Not as in story
    But as in atmosphere quests and roaming.
    Getting side tracked all the time
    Forgetting wtf your quest is and what's over that ther Hill Lol.

    Then there's the whole mmo side of eso which puts you into a different mind frame of what you want to do or what weapons skills crafting your into.

    Mmo is going to be all new to me.
    Pvp pve is something that will be strange to me but sticking with the campaign will be like skyrim for me.

    Mighten be a good comparison but it's my only way to describe from what I've played

    Hi -

    Anyone know what ye get in the box i..e is there a map or any other worthwhile bits ?
    ...or should I just download this...

    Thanks...


  • Registered Users Posts: 119 ✭✭Thibus


    I bought the standard edition. Got a code with it for a vanity pet and some other stuff. Haven't managed to log in yet. There is a 15.8gig update to dl before you can play.
    It's all installed and ready to go when I get home from work.
    Apparently there have been server issues, hopefully resolved now though

    This has already dropped to €50 delivered on Amazon even with the terrible exchange rate and including Amazon's exchange rate extras.

    I played 5 hours + yesterday with no log in or server issues. Converted well onto the console IMO. And my Veteran level 2 looks outstanding on a big screen


  • Registered Users Posts: 119 ✭✭Thibus


    I gave it 2 hours. Was good.
    Looking forward to getting back to it.
    Server seemed fine alright although i put my code in but didn't get the extras I was supposed to get
