Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Really good for a console MMO.
I've been a huge fan of the Elder Scrolls games for a while, and decided to give this a try since the Gold Edition came out. I had faith that they would have done a good job converting the Elder Scrolls world into an MMO, but was very hesitant as to how this would work on a console. Being an MMO fan since Everquest/World of Warcraft days, I couldn't imagine not being able to type while playing. You can use a keyboard with the PS4 for this if you want, but the game plays really well without it. There are enough ways to travel/craft/buy/sell things without having to type so I haven't had any issue with this so far. Also, in dungeons, most people seem to have headsets (at least that I've grouped with) so communication isn't an issue. As a new player I wasn't familiar with dungeon mechanics, but with the One Tamriel update you can join the dungeon queue and be grouped with people of all levels. Everyone has been super helpful explaining fights and I have yet to run into anyone who wasn't willing to help. The game plays very smooth. I haven't had any sort of lag even in the larger cities or during boss fights with a lot of particles on the screen at one time. It seemed a bit overwhelming at first but after a few hours I began to get the hang of combat mechanics/crafting/questing etc. Some of the quest lines are very detailed if you take the time to listen/read what's going on in the quests. Even the side quests seem to have a decent story to them which really enriches the experience within the game. A huge update went live mid October 2016 where you can bring your character just about anywhere and everything scales to your level. I think this has been a huge improvement and gives a ton of freedom to the game. It also really helps if you have friends that play, as you don't have to stay in the same general level range in order to group and do content that suits both your levels. Instead you can level ahead or lag behind and both parties will still get experience/gear/be effective when grouped. My friend plays less than I do so he's about 10 levels behind or so and we have no issue porting over to the other and grouping up. The game is built to allow you to play the way that you want. Regardless of your class selection you can wear heavy/medium/light armor, tank/dps/heal, and use whatever weapons that suits your playstyle. There are some combinations that work better than others, and although I haven't reached late game content I'm sure this is more prevalent there...but the majority of the game allows you to play how you want and have fun. Lastly, if you're just looking for a new Elder Scrolls game and have no interest in grouping, this is still a fantastic buy. You don't have to group or talk to anyone if you don't want to - there is a TON of content that can be done solo and you can spend your time just questing and exploring/building up your character. For the hours of game play that this offers there is really nothing to lose buy picking it up.

MMO Light with right amount of Skyrim
Huge fan of Skyrim. I tried different MMO's like WoW, FF14 and Guild Wars 2. All of them seemed a little too complicated. BB was having a sale where I got the game for $25. This game has so much content - its insane. On top of that it has no mandatory subscription fees. This is perfect for 30 minute sessions at end of day. This is different from Skyrim in the sense that world does not revolve around you. But the quests are fun and combat is actually better than Skyrim. I would recommend watching some videos before starting the game as basic concepts are not explained well.

Amazing game!
I got this at Best Buy for only $19.99 and it is well worth every penny. I've been wanting to get this game since it was announced but wasn't able to. I decided to get this one ahead of the Morrowind expansion just to get some levels in and get the expansion only download, also from Best Buy. There is so much to do. If you want you can just do the main quest line or do any of the many side quests. You can even just spend your time working at crafting. Join up with a party or go it alone. Play however you want. Awesome game.
