Elder Scrolls Online gameplay

ESO is an MMORPG set in the world of The Elder Scrolls games, envisioned by Bethesda but developed by Zenimax. It’s not Skyrim online (if you’re looking for that there’s a mod for the actual Skyrim). Think of it as an MMO that’s borrowing the world and the lore of the TES games. The beta was rocky but many issues have been since addressed and if you can pick the game up for sale on Steam or on a site like GreenManGaming or BundleStars it’s worth the price. Plus, it’s buy to play, so no subscription needed. Explore the world of Tamriel to your heart’s content.
