EVE General Discussion

I played beta after hearing the devs say there will none of that "quest to npc to quest to npc" ****. And guess what it turned out to be the biggest quest grind ever.

Fishing, with no point to it and as for the class thing. Most people still went with specific class types. I went mage so obviously I wanted to grind those skills. The further I got the less I was inclined to switch training for dual wield mele for example.

Your making a mistake leaving bro but i'll bet you will be right back after a week in that game ^.^

My experience was much different than yours I guess. I found myself getting lost and enjoying the fact that I was getting lost. You could grind quests like a super uber questy guy if you so chose but I had more fun just poking around all over the place, popping open chests, collecting crafting crap, and finding new and interesting stuff. If you're only interest is getting to the maximum level in as few hours as possible, questing is surely the way to go. If, however, you're in no rush to be the super badass ***** on wheels, uber asskicker from hell, it is anything but what you're describing.

As I stated, I may be back. I do not dismiss that idea at all. But it would be irresponsible of me to hate on a game before it even launches and not, as a long time fan of the franchise, participate and contribute to this latest endeavor.

Damn you Mag's!!! GImme back m'cosies!!!!!!!!

As Nanny Plum would say..."errrrrrrrrrr, no!"

Meh, I always put Elder Scrolls and beth together.

Maybe I can get Jeff to come play ESO...

I'm still on the fence for ESO.

I really want it to be a great game, but I think I'll wait a bit until the hype cools off and see what's up then.

Either way, I'll still be playing this game. Lots of room for more than one game at a time in my so called life. I'm glad to see you are not dumping your characters, Kimmi. That would be a mistake, in my opinion.

Mr Epeen

The worst crime that ESO has committed that you people are forgetting is the settings of each of the continents/individual areas.

Cyrodiil was supposed to be a sprawling tropical jungle with forests and mountains, sprawling rivers and a big valley in the middle. It was many things and was at heart diverse.

Then ESO came along and decided that was too interesting (or hard to recreate, who knows). They decided it was more suitable that it was a generic medieval location. To make it worse, all references to Cyrodiil from the books in the previous games were simply translated wrong, it was a "transcription error".

The Summerset Isles were widely renowned to have glass architecture, that is, whole cities made of glass.
"a hypnotic swirl of ramparts and impossibly high towers, designed to catch the light of the sun and break it to its component colors, which lie draped across its stones until you are thankful for nightfall."

THEN ESO CAME ALONG AND DECIDED GLASS IS TOO INTERESTING. NOPE, YOU GET MORE GENERIC MEDIEVAL SETTINGS.

AND DONT EVEN ASK ABOUT THE ALLIANCES THAT THE RACES HAVE FORMED.

OR HOW THERES A 26 YEAR OLD ELF COMMANDER IN THE ALTMER

JUST DONT
