Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited

I was wondering will FG have an ESO faction?

[Harrison 202]

I was going to get it, saw it was pay to play, lolnope

[Just Cal 461]

I would have loved to be a part of it seeing as Skyrim is one of my favorite games. The pay to play has turned me away forever.

[jordie1892 681]

I'll still be getting it. I love MMO's and the Elder Scrolls world. It seems like the perfect game for me. If I have to pay to play so be it :/

[Playertd 177]

I figure paying to play eso each month is a hell of a lot cheaper than buying other 60$ games each month, so I'd actually save money playing it

 

Can't wait till it comes out!

[Spugggz 28]

It better have one! It won't be too difficult to set up anyway but I think the clans/alliances are platform set so we'd have to have one for PS4 and one for PC.

 

For those debating purchase, it does come with the first month for free.

I was really pumped about this the I learned about pay to play. Nope not going to happen.

Damn I wish I could play this game

[cyberninja2601 1,106]

at $15/month I think a lot of people will take a pass. I'm not paying $180 a year to play an online game

[Playertd 177]

People spend 120$-170$ to play call of duty for a year on xbox....between the game, membership fee and DLC if you get it. So spending over 100 bucks to play a game hasn't ever stopped people, I don't see how it will now.

 

Also - for me personally when I play an MMO I really don't play/buy many other games...where as with normal console games I get bored of them every few months and spend WAY over 200$ a year on them

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

Trevor, you make some solid points man.  By the time you pay for XBL, CoD, and map packs... you could be playing TES: Online.  But, like you said... when you play a game like that, you've got to be committed to it.  That's the only game you'll be playing.  I like a little variety, so don't think I could commit to spending my money on a game each month.  

[spectre 633]

how much is it every month? I'll probably skip it anyway but I was just wondering. I got bored watching the video I posted.

[BO7H B4RRELS 2,453]

15/month I think.

I played wow for years, which is also pay to play. If the quality of this comes close, it'll be well worth it. The service, despite what players will say, is phenomenal. How many other games can you think of where you can pick up a phone and call someone for help? Deleted something by mistake? Forgotten your login details? Been a victim of account theft? Been scammed? Simply grab the phone and let them sort it out.

There are Game Masters who roam the map who can help out with things, settle disputes, and they also do some magic shit which generally keeps the spirits up.

At least like that you have proper support, not like most games nowadays where you just have to wait for solutions.

I'm not saying it's worth it, but this is something to take into account.

I've been searching for a Runescape replacement for years now. I put in thousands of hours into that game, because not only could I play it with friends, I could enjoy much of it all by myself. If Elder Scrolls Online is accessible enough to hook me in, I will happily pay $15 per month a similar experience. 

[Spugggz 28]

I know a lot of people have said this won't be the case but if the first 6 or so months aren't the success that they expected to be then I don't think they'll keep the monthly fee model in the future or at least, they'll charge less. 

 

I definitely think the game has potential, I'm sure you get a month free with the game so that's one thing. For us console gamers, if you're not hooked by then you can sell the game on.

[Diddums 4,346]

Loads of pay2play MMOs have changed their tune to F2P models with microtransactions, premium accounts, or other business models. Rift, Planetside 2, LOTRO, Star Wars, etc etc.

 

They're all still doing fairly well.

[ChaosGladiator 811]

I might still get it even if it's P2P. I want this game seing as they are gonna have it on the PS4 and Skyrim is easily in my top 5 list of games I've ever played.

Just seen that the Elder Scrolls online is coming out on April 4th 2014 on PC with the One and PS4 versions out later in the year. Cannot wait!

It's been a LONG time since I've been so excited for a game. It can't come quick enough.

[Sennex 1,903]

After being in the beta for it, I decided to pass on this, and save my money for something else.

[Playertd 177]

Still dancing in my pants about this game, can't wait.
