I guess with any race on any alliance you could muster up some kind of lore reason like "Well, I'm turning from my evil high elf ways to help out the Nords in Skyrim!" type of deal.

It's only preorders that can do it and I think a lot of them will want to stick with their chosen race's original faction. It shouldn't be too bad. I'm gonna be an imperial on live anyway and I'll definitely have an orc. I'm probably gonna play daggerfall covenant the most.

Again for me the biggest prob is the non-sandboxyness of the whole thing. Getting stuck in a zone, forced to do quests to move on to next zone to me sucked so much i didnt even get the motivation to push through to see if there was a central area with a larger sandboxy area to explore. Which i dont think there is?

So far PvP in Cyrodiil is awesome. It's like a whole other game. The beginning PvE areas don't even compare.

I took place in a large keep defense where there were lots of trebuchets, catapults, and ballistae on both sides firing, then they broke through and there was fighting in the keep and on the walls. I logged off after dying because I needed sleep so I don't know who won, but apparently we were getting double teamed for taking an elder scroll.
It felt like DAOC on a grand scale like I always wanted that game to be. In DAOC you really just bash keep walls, go kill the lord, run into other groups and have 8v8 PvP. No way in ESO. Many more players per keep battle, you can't see their names (at least yet, enemies have a symbol above their head and that's it) and there's lots of siege weapons used. The difference between Cyrodiil and the main lands is like night and day. It feels like two different games. The very beginning of the game is sort of slow and feels like it's on rails, once you get to your main land it opens up considerably, then at level 10 you can start PvP. You'll suck and be ineffective but you can start it. I can't wait to see the media reviews of this weekend's PvP. So far it's all been about the PvE and the reviews are mixed at best. PvE is generally lackluster in MMOs anyway, especially low level PvE.

There were three in my family who were playing together last night for a few hours. We only made it to level 6 and just got to the third zone. A few questions for the people with more beta experience:
1. Does it ever open up and get more sandbox? Do you keep having to complete quests to move through zones? 2. When does the first dungeon come in? We're playing Dragon Covenant. 3. Does PvP only take place in Cyrodil? 4. Any raiding to speak of? 5. Any top end grinds necessary? Faction? Tokens for items? Mats for crafting? etc? 6. In terms of leveling to 50... I'm a nightblade. I'm putting all my points into assassination, dual wield, medium armor. Will I get to like level 30 and get stuck? Will i need to then go back and work on something I normally won't use -- like heavy armor -- in order to level to cap? 7. We're opening up shrines as we see them. Will there ever be any reason to go back to low level zones? Appreciate any insight. | ||
