I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it at that kind of price. <br /><br />@Magson - Some great screenshots in that collection. It's a very photogenic game. I haven't had enough experience to judge mob difficulty yet but it seems variable - some things three or four levels above me die easily while I've died to mobs my own level. I like the lack of information on that though - makes exploring a little more intense than the strict level-rated themepark experience might suggest. Also these zones are *big*!<br /><br />@Lani I'm grabbing all the quests I run across and not finishing many of the chains as is my usual wont. I like how free and easy the game is about letting you pick up quests without apparently needing to have done prequels although I suspect there is plenty of that going on as well. <br /><br />You could probably drop some of those sandstone buildings into Qalia and never notice the difference. The soundscape is very similar too. Looking forward to the orc lands!Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-6436462116165367682015-02-03T19:07:50.621+00:002015-02-03T19:07:50.621+00:00Honestly, it's a zone-by-zone progression them...Honestly, it's a zone-by-zone progression themepark. When you start a new zone you don't go the "the later parts" sine the higher level mobs there can kill you easily. At least until you hit the veteran levels. Then you can go anywhere in a zone your fancy takes you since each zone is all the same vet level, though you still have to progress from zone to zone. Assuming you don't just run into Craglorn and get in a boss grinding group to blast to max Veteran Rank. I never did that, as it just didn't appeal to me. I actually quite enjoyed the freedom to simply explore a zone once I hit vet levels, and didn't feel like it was a "grind wall" at all.Magsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05870589034885773525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-25893261357650972692015-02-03T01:28:16.395+00:002015-02-03T01:28:16.395+00:00You're making it sound appealing.

Will be interesting to see how much freedom it offers when compared to Skyrim where you can effectively just shoot off in any direction and do anything you want.pixelrevisionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04407680367407131024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-83646970449924337592015-02-02T12:39:56.044+00:002015-02-02T12:39:56.044+00:00I recently resubbed to ESO and am again having a b...I recently resubbed to ESO and am again having a blast with the questing. I drifted away after hitting Vet levels with two characters but now that some time has passed replaying content on a higher difficulty feels great. The game really has a lot to teach MMO and RPG devs in terms of immersive interface design.<br />It's sad to see how things fall apart in the Multiplayer aspects though, when you chat with Remembers The Dark and become friends with them under the name @tnanog rather than Remembers...<br /><br />I share that Vanguard vibe. It's mostly due to the similarities between Redguard architecture in ESO and Qalian archiecture in VGSoH. The next island you'll visit is an orcish one and that too has similarities. It's not quite as awesome as the VGSoH Orc/Goblin starter island which was the best ever, but close.Lanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06835095269839169484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510920011443550663.post-55278968319388112402015-02-02T08:54:02.739+00:002015-02-02T08:54:02.739+00:00I really only stopped playing becuz I had 3 of the...I really only stopped playing becuz I had 3 of the 4 archetypes into the vet levels (and 2 sorcerers there, so 4 toons at 50+ with a nightblade in the 30's) and I'd done it across all 3 factions, so the vet levels simply repeating content was... honestly, just fine for me, but a really busy week at work made me miss playing for a bit and I didn't really miss it and so I just drifted off from playing. I still enjoyed it a ton, though, and with the new Champion system have always intended to go back, so..... probably will do a final month's sub in March to get the "you subbed when we switched" bonuses, but then I'll be happy to be able to log in any old time without needing a sub.<br /><br />As to screenshots...... yeah, I've taken a few.... and these are jsut the ones I uploaded.

I might just give this another whirl once the sub drops.Shintarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16758343475446510635noreply@blogger.com
