Is The Elder Scrolls Online Gold legitimate? Will buying it ban my account?
If you've played ESO and had to deal with the hoards of gold farmers spamming chat and mailboxes, and competing with the hoards of bots choking bosses and resource nodes, you'd understand the illegality of gold farmers. And to see what looks like a gold spammer here in this feed...unbelievable. Thank goodness Zenimax seems to be winning the battle currently.
Is Elder Scrolls Online worth picking up this late in the games development and is there a way for new players to get caught up without a grind?
Elder Scrolls is definitely worth getting (July 2017). It isn't even “late” into the game, since the Morrowind expansion was just released last month. With the new add on, a lot of new players recently joined and existing players got new characters.The servers can be challenging. The PVP game play is almost torturous with the delay, and the lag. However PVE (like 4-man dungeons) are easier to get through without the game dropping.Overall, it's definitely worth it. Use game chat to ask for “training” gear and other tips to help you level up fast.
Will the Elder Scrolls VI be on the Nintendo Switch?
I’ll be blunt:I hope not! After all the switch isn’t exactly pushing pixels. It’s a tablet, Basically an upgraded Nvidia Shield well these guys are saying the Shield is actually better Nintendo Switch vs Nvidia Shield K1: the weigh-in.Skyrim came out in 2011 (32 Bit Game). It’s 2018 so 7 years ago and the newest Nintendo can play it good for them.I’m hoping that Bethesda goes back to their roots after all I’ve been playing TES since Daggerfall on the PC. I remember upgrading my system for Morrowind they pushed the boundaries on capabilities back then, and I was upset with them releasing the simplified Oblivion (First one on consoles). Skyrim was fine when you added the PC essentials mod package around 30 mods to bring it up to PC standards, at bear minimum you’d need Sky UI and SKSE.I’d love to see them push the Graphical Limits with Vulkan API or at least DirectX 12, make use of my 12 Cores. Not optimize it for a system, that is basically a Gamerized Tablet. Currently and for the foreseeable future “Portable” gaming = loss of capability.Average consoles are weak compared to entry level gaming PC’s a year or two after release.The switch on release year doesn’t even compare to a typical gaming laptop.So my fear for them coding it to the Switch is their graphical fidelity, their ability to make the world feel real would be Severely limited due to the consoles hardware capabilities. Now if they wanted to make an Optimized (Simplified) version after for the Consoles of that time I’m fine with that.
Should I buy the Elder Scrolls Online Tamriel Edition or Elder Scrolls Online Gold Edition?
Assuming you know the difference between them (and if not, Michelle Toich has outlined them in her answer), I would suggest either the Tamriel Edition and a monthly subscription (which gets you access to all DLCs) or going for the Gold. If not, you will run into situations where you will find locked doors you can’t open, dungeons you can’t enter, people you can’t interact with, etc. It probably won’t ruin the game for you, but buying the version that includes the DLC packs will certainly enhance it.The DLCs also give you added skill lines and quest lines, most of which are important if you want to play a stealth-based character. The Thieves Guild DLC, for example, gives you access to a skill that drops your bounty from criminal activity much more quickly than it would drop otherwise, and even includes Counterfeit Pardon Edicts that erase 500 points of bounty instantly if you use them.The Dark Brotherhood DLC gives you a weapon option for insta-kills on most opponents if you sneak up on them from behind. It also gives you access to a set of easy assassination quests that can help with leveling, as they can be done over and over with no cool-down time between missions. (Thieves Guild does as well, but theirs take longer.)I haven’t played Orsinium as much, but its quests, while easy enough to do, are daily, with a cooldown between them (I think they reset at a certain time each day, but I can’t swear to it.)All-in-all, the Gold version is a good value if you aren’t going to pay for the monthly subscription that allows you the DLCs at no charge as long as you subscribe. It also means that if your subscription lapses, you won’t lose access to those skills and areas until you re-subscribe.
Do you think that Fallout 76 going to be similar to The Elder Scrolls Online?
only in the sense that both are “online”. If you put an gun to my head and forced me to point to a list of games “most like” Fallout 76 I would hesitantly (and only because of the fire arm) point to the likes of ARK and Rust. Fallout 76 wont have NPC’s in the world (there will be quests but I bet they come via radio and holotapes)However, don't expect it to be as… hostile as ARK/Rust as there is a major difference between 76 and those games, Player counts.Ark has 60 (give or take via server settings), Rust can have between 40–500 (depending on settings), Fallout 76 currently (it may change) has 24.Amplifying that difference is the map size, ARK has 36km (of land), Rust’s default map is 64km. Fallout 76’s map is about 40km (4x the size of Fallout 4’s map).So lets pretend there's an 76 mod for Fallout 4, that's 6 players running around the commonwealth.
Should the next Elder Scrolls game have a settlement mode?
I personally would want such a gameplay feature to be vastly downplayed from its presence in Fallout 4. It was the natural progression of Hearthfire—and thus decent for building player homes—but the Sims-esque focus on settlers and the Minecraft-style obsession of resource gathering and management need to go. The primary focus of an Elder Scrolls game, to me, is the roleplaying and the worldbuilding. I would want Bethesda to focus on that over the non-content that is the settlement system. Imagine what could have been done with all of the blank settlement locations in Fallout 4: more fleshed-out NPC cities, dungeons, and so on. I don’t want TESVI to be the same barren wasteland that FO4 was. Unfortunately, being stuck in their ways, I imagine Bethesda will emphasize this feature much more than their enthusiast audience would like.
What new classes and races should be added to the elder scrolls online?
Well, how about automated dwemers (Dwarves)?We know that Dwemers had disappeared from Nirm long time ago. Even in a game like ESO which set about (thousand?) years in the past, Dwemers are still gone and nothing is shown about them.So how about a machine-race that were created by the Dwemers, using advance tech and souls gems - like those that exists inside the dwemer ruins? The different could be that these machine-race could become sentient beings due to the soul gems which they used for a long time.ESO developers could make a side-story about them and how the hero (characters created by the players) accidentally found them on an island after getting shipwrecked and that they agreed to help the hero (leave) in condition that he keeps their location and existence secret. That way, it will not conflict with Elder Scroll Skyrim (which set in the future).I was always fascinated by the Dwarves. It always Elves here and Elves there in Elder Scroll games.
Okay should i get Morrowind or Fallout New Vegas? (PC)?
I've played Oblivion and i loved it so much. I recently bought Fallout 3 on steam and i was disappointed it wasn't compatible with windows 7. I really want to try a Fallout game i never have. I also really want more Elder Scrolls! I don't care much for graphics, i just want a long fun game! Thank you.
Who would win in a fight between all the Elder Scrolls protagonists?
Probably the Altmer. Comparing the starting stats and powers with the overall effectiveness of attack types, having a high magic pool and nearly instantaneous magicka regen is a great advantage in both ranged and melee combat.The optimal spell combination would be invisibility and dual summoning.Good luck trying to use Berserk Rage against an invisible target and two Storm Thralls.The other race-specific powers; Dragonskin, Adrenalin Rush, Animal Allegience, Night Vision, Battle Cry, Ancestor's Wrath and the Voice of the Emperor would have no effect at all.The Argonians' Histskin power would be helpful, but it is purely defensive.Any of these races can use the 100% Illusion enchantment exploit to remain permanently invisible and even things up. In this case, my money is on the Redguards because of their stamina pool.Without the exploit, the High Elves would be unstoppable.
