Forums - Gaming Discussion - Elder Scrolls Online starts on Sunday (officially Friday), are you in?

Elder Scrolls Online launches officially for most players on April 4 on PC (next gen console versions have to wait until June), but if you buy on digital pre-order from Bethesda you will be able to play it starting from the day after tomorrow, Sunday March 30!

I'm still undecided if I should jump in right from the start. I'm a bit hesitant since The Imperial edition costs 80 Euros (which is more than $100, but in USA it's probably cheaper) and I'm not sure if I wanna make such an investment for something that will most likely turn out to be frustrating in the long run (the social aspects, elitism of MMOs, the addiction factor, time waste etc).

I'm not a huge MMO player, I'm more like casual, or at least I try to take on a more casual approach mentally in trying to minimize the above mentioned frustrations. But MMOs also have some aspects I really like - the social co-op aspect, the feeling of being part of something big and important, the exploration of a huge changing world, the PvP (especially in Realm versus Realm as in Elder Scrolls Online).

 

How do you feel?

Many will say "this will become FTP within X months, just wait and see", but what about the rest of you? Anyone here gonna play EOS? Anyone pre-ordered?

EDIT: I bought it just before they opened the game on March 30th for players who had pre-ordered. I'm now level 10 and have putted around 25 hours into it and I'm addicted. There's so much stuff to do in this game. And it feels a lot like Elder Scrolls.

The official launch is on Friday the 4th of April. Join us!!

Yes! They are great.



don't really care for mmo's. not going to pay some crazy subscription fee and I hate the social aspects. Most of the time,your forced to work as a team with people,if you want to get any were in the game. I'll just stick to battlefield multiplayer,being alone wolf.



I was gonna get it but some beta feedback made me hesitant, so i'll wait and see what the final conclusion is

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Lol no. I've tried the beta, very underwhelming. Didn't try PVP but I won't give it the benefit of doubt, not that it would change my mind really. Maybe will give it a try when it's F2P.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!
