Rating: 8/10

Pros:
A clean UI MMO with good skills and skill trees. I enjoyed this alongside similarly set up games like Guild Wars 2 and Wildstar where you don't have a huge amount of skills to worry about and can switch weapons easily.

Oh, coloring is a pro. Provided you've completed achievements you get account-wide colors to use for free.

Combat Mechanics. I love being able to interrupt with a simple bash.

Recent changes to scaling. I really liked their recent change to make it so that every enemy you come up against - even if you're in a party with various levels of people - is scaled and you can deal damage if at low levels.

Add-on support. Having these add-ons reminds me a lot of modding regular Skyrim, and I did enjoy that feeling. Can't live without my research assistant. ;D


Cons:
No cosmetic armor system where you can slot armors you liked over your equipped armor - which is one of my favorite features of games like Wildstar and Lord of the Rings Online.

No Minimap. Yes, you can easily load add-ons for it and I do - it just creates an excessive amount of lag since the minimap isn't a regular feature.

Now I'm going to get a lil hate for this, but I'm going to have to say "Skyrim Grunge". I like Skyrim and all, but it has always felt dark and dirty. I have mods to make people look better in Skyrim, but in ESO there isn't a huge selection of facial styles like I would have preferred.


All-in-all though I love this game, esp now that I have the DLCs and can easily steal and shank people at will, haha. Way easier to make small cash than the original Skyrim, and while it's not quite comparable to a Single Player game, I like it about as much. :)
