By that I mean it follows your mouse click Elder Scrolls/TERA style play as you've seen in the advertising. And while that includes defense, it doesn't have a full active defense system - not surprising, no MMORPG seems willing to touch that.

The speed of the combat is noticeably faster than Elder Scrolls - this is a game breaker for many players.

The graphics are nowhere near as good as Skyrim. When I say that, I do so on two accounts.
1. The default visuals of Skyrim are decent on consoles and higher quality on the computer.
2. The modified visuals of Skyrim on a computer are impressive. People here whom play Skyrim and have used a quality ENB series know what I speak of.

ESO is currently sub par to the console version of default Skyrim graphics.

The general mechanics and common features we expect in MMORPGs are still the same.
The only saving grace here is that if you're big on Tamriel lore, the game has it and it's fun to share with others.

Having said that; it's not near as boring and repetitive as FFXIV : ARR
Trying to compare a single player graphics to mmo graphics is an exercise in idiocy
