I've tried several times to get into ESO but it just hasn't ever really clicked with me. It's fun to explore these unique locales that either haven't been in any mainline entry or visiting the sorta recreation of Morrowind with this high quality art style, but the actual moment to moment gameplay just doesn't work for me. It tries so hard to look like a typical Elder Scrolls game on the surface but too many of the MMO shortcomings and design decisions actively deter you from actually playing it like one, and each time I gave this a go I would just spend several hours reinstalling Skyrim with mods and playing that instead.

MMOs are meant to be massive time sinks and I just can't really see myself bothering with this one even if being able to own and play this at anytime without a subscription is nice compared to something like FFXIV.
