Just as a reminder for new and existing players, you can get ESO Plus + 3000 crowns for less than $20 if you look around online. You can also get ESO Gold for $32-$35

Blazing Zero posted:is the pvp a hot mess of lag and stuttering like most of these zerg v zerg games are? I asked this in the other thread, the AZ campaign was picked because it doesn't lag. I've only played on that campaign but I have not once seen the Cyrodiil lag that the game is infamous for and I've done a lot of PVP. Probably about 60 hours worth by now.

Morglon posted:I'm not saying it needs to be blue again or even enchanted or anything but if someone who has everything researched takes maybe five minutes to craft me set stuff instead of me crafting some non set or low set poo poo myself it's a huge increase in power and no I'm not counting on it happening and it won't kill me if I don't get it but last time I asked about gear that was given to me and if at all possible I would at least like to keep the set bonus going even if I only get new weapons to replace my old ones, the rest of the gear is perfectly fine. Just do your dailies and you'll get properly geared.

Rollersnake posted:I kinda wish I had fond Morrowind memories so I could share in the enthusiasm, but I'm pretty psyched for a new class and huge new region regardless. Now is the perfect time to try it with OpenMW nearly complete and you can download Tamriel Rebuilt and get several hundred hours worth of content out of it. I wouldn't be surprised if they get multiplayer fully functioning by May (the 15th anniversary) http://openmw.org Trust me, it isn't just nostalgia/rose tinted glasses, Kirkbride is the only reason why TES is interesting setting/story-wise .

epic Kingdom Hearts LP posted:I was told this game is good now. If I'm an EQ2/LOTRO fan, will I like this game? Do you mind action combat? Do you mind voice acting? Are you a fan of three faction Realm v Realm v Realm PVP? Most importantly, do you enjoy Bethesda open world games? I hated this game in beta, thought it'd fail within six months but it is now the only themepark MMO I've ever enjoyed outside of Everquest. This is the most enjoyable Elder Scrolls game since Morrowind so I'd give it a chance. You can get a cheap key of the base version here http://www.gamesdeal.com/the-elder-scrolls-online-tamriel-unlimited-pc-mac.html and the gold edition (Imperial City/Orsinium/Dark Brotherhood/Thieves Guild) here https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/the-elder-scrolls-online-gold-edition-pc-cd-key Alexander DeLarge fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Jan 31, 2017 |

Sky Shadowing posted:Yes. The only thing you can't do with that key is any DLC that's not included (not sure if that's the Gold Edition or not). the only DLC that you wouldn't have access to with ESO Gold are the two dungeons and the Morrowind expansion. Losing out on the crafting bag kinda sucks but you can learn to live without it.

boho posted:Note this doesn't include Shadows of the Hist, which may actually be considered a benefit. If and when Gamesdeal gets those 3000 crown+ESO Plus cards again, I'll move back but for $20 to own everything except Shadows of the Hist. You can still get 3000 crowns for $17-$18 so I'll probably get the dungeon DLC soon. Some people are moving away from ESO+ because they're mad about Morrowind not being included, I just see it as a benefit to always own the major DLCs because I don't want to have to pay $15 to access content. Here's the cheapest crown deal I can find atm http://www.gamesdeal.com/the-elder-scrolls-online-tamriel-unlimited-3000-crown-pack-pc-mac.html quote:Warning!

GrayDorian posted:That deal says it doesn't work with the Steam version of the game - anyone tried it out? Part of me believes that the notice is there so people don't buy it trying to activate it as a Steam key... But the other part of me says that if it worked as a redeemable ESO account code, they could just include instructions on how to activate it. Honestly I don't know what to believe. They also said that I wouldn't be able to upgrade my ESO account to ESO Gold. Also I'm not sure if I'm too excited about Warden anymore https://translate.google.com/transl...%2C3308856.html quote:Like all heroes from ESO, the Warden also has three skills trees, each of which is a very different aspect of the character. As a nature magician, he is a healer , an animal sorcerer a strong damage distributor and an ice wizard a tank . In the following paragraphs we explain the individual skill trees of the Wardens. Our information is based on a studio visit at ZeniMax. The German names of the skills were unfortunately not yet known at this time and until the release can change one or the other of the skills.

PSA for anyone that is thinking about buying the Steam version due to this week's sale... If you want to get in on those 3000 crown deals that I post here, don't. Apparently the Steam version isn't compatible with the crown keys. If you want to use those cheap crown codes, get this Gold Edition (includes Imperial City/Orsinium/Dark Brotherhood/Thieves Guild) https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/1554-buy-key-the-elder-scrolls-online-gold-edition/ or https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/293-buy-key-the-elder-scrolls-online-tamriel-unlimited/ (base version) Alexander DeLarge fucked around with this message at 04:56 on Feb 9, 2017 |

Honestly I hated it at launch, thought it'd die within a year but it's now my favorite Elder Scrolls since Morrowind. If you can get over the fact that everyone else is running around "as the chosen one" and the fact that a sword to the face won't kill someone in 2-3 hits because this is a MMO, I'd say go for it.

The more I read about Elder Scrolls lore, the more I realize it doesn't matter. Doesn't CHIM and C0DA explain how every playthrough is canon, even with mods and the player using the console to God mode and noclip? TES lore is weird. I really like the whole "each plane of existence is a different planet" thing so when you use things like Gates of Oblivion, you're doing space travel (which they actually did during the first age while colonizing the moons of Nirn).

One more thing about the lore, Pete Hines responded to a tweet regarding inconsistencies in Fallout 4 such as putting Jet in a vault that had been sealed for hundreds of years basically saying "who cares, it's a video game". If they don't care about lore, why does anyone else? The only person that cares about The Elder Scrolls lore is Kirkbride and he was fired for locking himself in his office and doing hallucinogenic drugs while creating the lore for Morrowi-I mean "left the company amicably".

Dejawesp posted:I thought the gimmicky drug names in Fallout 3+ was just placeholders. Because naming them after real drugs would have led the game to being banned in some countries. I know Jet is brahmin farts but it's supposed to be a makeshift version of some other drug. Jet was established in Fallout 2 as being some sort of new drug IIRC so people got mad when it was in a vault and they had emails talking about shipments. http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Jet

eonwe posted:ok so im about to hit 50 on my new char I believe once you hit 50 it gives you a 4 million XP enlightenment buff so what I'd do is find someone nice to run you through Skyrearch Catacombs 30 times. It's good loot for them and that should get you up to CP50-60 within 3-4 hours. Once you do that, daily dungeons/pledges/general roaming around and doing stuff along with Cyrodiil should get you to 160 quickly.

If you weren't fortunate enough to get in on that $29 Amazon deal for Morrowind, Best Buy just got the collector's edition. If you have Gamer Club Unlocked, it brings down the price to $79.99. Bring the total up to $100 and you get $25 off by using Visa Checkout. If you don't have Gamer Club Unlocked, you can bring the price from $99 to $75 by using Visa Checkout, $5 less than using up an Amazon Prime trial.

So basically they're saying that the computations going on behind the scenes are killing performance in Cyrodiil? Get rid of CP in PVP, who cares? Azura's is far more fun than any of the other campaigns.

MF_James posted:Why would you be able to setup merchants? That would undermine the auction system, unless you're talking about NPC merchants to sell stuff to? It makes sense not having them in the way trading works in ESO as is but I'd certainly prefer open world housing where you have players listing their goods and the trading guilds in cities basically placing the sellers outside of cities in a more customizable setting than some wagon on the side of the road. If there were open world housing with player owned merchants, there'd be even more reason to revisit areas and whenever I travel in the world, I always get caught up doing ten other things before I port out because there's always something going on and it really feels like an Elder Scrolls game just roaming around doing stuff. I don't know if that's just me but anything that makes that kind of "emergent gameplay" happen should be encouraged. Ultimately it's a trade off between urban sprawl syndrome and having a cohesive world that is pleasant to explore and personal preference. This is one of those "too late to implement now" things. I know why the game is designed as it was. The zones are too small for this sort of thing anyways, but I'd love to see future areas do something like non-instanced housing that plays a role in the economy for power sellers, master crafters and maybe even larger venues for the most influential guilds in the game.

Matthaeus posted:You can't add the Gold Edition content to an existing account, the code that comes with it is for a new account only. I did it no problem, just activated the key on the ESO account management page. There's speculation on whether certain digital keys are different from retail keys (the ones instant-gaming provides) but all I know is it worked for me and a couple other people that used instant-gaming after my recommendation. I got my key from https://www.instant-gaming.com/en/1554-buy-key-the-elder-scrolls-online-gold-edition/ and I had a Steam key purchased before it went buy2play and a retail collector's edition key with the pre-order bonus explorer DLC pack.
