Best way to avoid that chat is to leave Faction/Trial chat for a week or so. These people will move on once they get bored, which shouldn't take long. The first few weeks are always rough, but then you'll get the community who actually cares about t…
I would love contact shuddering. Though I have come to expect its absence since very few MMOs actually give you that satisfying feel when you hit an enemy with an ability (Rift was notorious for that). I've been mostly playing in First Person mode, …
One thing I loved about the melee combat was making sneak-power attacks, you knock the enemy prone. That is a pretty satisfying response to me. Combat is going to be what you do with it. If all you do is spam attacks, then it is going to look shallo…
I used to have a lot of respect for Massively and Joystiq, but lately they have both been behaving a bit unprofessional. I can understand not liking a game, and look forward to reading a well written preview explaining why. But lately they just soun…
People love drama and controversy. Also the need to be a "white knight" and save others from making a bad (subjective) decision can drive them. Others are just trolls trying to get a rise out of people.
Some have very valid observations that are we…
Originally posted by mithoss the question is this: why should eso be forgiven for having the same flaws as skyrim?
its only now coming out, it had plenty of time to fix those issues.
Also, please stop reffering to angry joes first impressions as…

The UI is similar to Skyrim, but that's not the default ES UI. Every ES game has had a different UI, so that has absolutely nothing to do with creating an ES experience. As for the gameplay, we shall see, having s…
Unfortunately this is kind of how conversations go on here lately. Nit picking and logical fallacies going on to prove someone is "wrong".
One thing to know, there is a VERY vocal minority of people that dislike most MMOs. I used to enjoy conversat…
I think a reviewer hit the nail on the head, can't remember if it was from MMORPG.com or not. They stated that reviewers overlooked the flaws that Skyrim had, but yet those same ones that were accepted in Skyrim are not acceptable in ESO (such as co…
Definitely in for myself and significant other.
I would say that the gaming community has become a pretty negative and toxic place (not just around ESO). Hopefully one day people will be able to sit down and just enjoy a video game for the ente…

When you visit these forums you have to understand that most people on here, at least the vocal ones, want to watch games fail. Not sure why that is, but very rarely do you see positive statements. It could be that the game they wanted came out and …
This game probably has just as much of a love hate relationship as FFXIV did when it was in beta. It's like a never ending spiral.
Rift isn't a bad game at all. It is pretty polished and plays nicely. If you like the current market of games th…
Rift in my opinion: Solid game for the current genre
This game plays very nicely and has a lot of character customization options (to essentially build your own class). Decent graphics and Rifts are fairly engaging (especially if you liked the pub…
Just thinking about how they would put armor on an Ithorian or Trandoshan...that would be some strange looking armor. Then again, if you look at some of the armor they showed in the Mysteries of Knights of the Old Republic video, they might have arm…
The problem is you won't get much objectivity when it comes to things like this. Many overhyped it with their own expectations that it would be SWG 2, or a sandbox game. Others will be proponents of other MMO's and seek to watch this one fail, thus …
Carebear, at least in it's current form, is nothing more than a derogatory statement used against gamers who aren't supportive of unrestricted PvP. It used to be, like another poster pointed out, a term used to denote players who perferred to avoid …
