    Nope. Not that there isn't plenty good about it, just that it's clear you really aren't interested in it so there's no point in trying to convince you otherwise. I'd go as far as to suggest that if you bought it now, you'd play for a couple months, cancel, and then mash out a near unintelligible "I told you so" post, listing all the issues you have with it, reasonable or not. 

     

    My advice to you is to watch it for a few months and see where it goes. If in a few months it looks like something you want to play, you can do so for a fraction of what it costs right now. 

    There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

    No I can't give you a reason. Same as I can't give you a reason to buy a particular type of car, or eat a certain type of food.

    Read up about it, watch gameplay vids, and decide for yourself if you think you'll find it fun. Make a decision and accept the consequences, good or bad. Like an adult.

    I would say no.

    You have seen the game and people have been talking about it, both positive and negative.

    My guess is that you just want to play "something" you might like the look of it and that's "compelling" but if you have been negative about the game then your reasons are probably justified.

    or, in a concise manner, list what you don't like about it and maybe people can reinforce or negate your reasons.

    Otherwise, we have no idea what you hate about it and can't really justify it.

    Well, if you buy it, at least you'll be able to back up your negative opinions with actual facts from your time spent playing.

    I would also say no - if you've been watching it and reading about it and have no interest in playing, I think the poster above is right that you just want "something" to play. Any MMO where I've just wanted something to play, I end up quitting before the month is up and not feeling too good about purchasing. Wait a few months and see if you have any interest once you see where things go with it.

    From a quest in ESO on DC I learned that you already know what you want. All you have to do is search your heart and you will make the right decision. Your own decision, no one can make it for you.

    the reason is right there in the topic.. you want to play it.

    other than that there's not much else... what some like you may not like so the ony thing to do is to try it yourself.

    I had fun once, it was terrible.

    Well, the title of your thread already seems to have provided you with a reason to buy and play: "i want to play Teso..." So, if you wan to play it, then do it! 

    I make spreadsheets at work - I don't want to make them for the games I play.

    So, I thought I'd do a little reading to see what sorts of posts you've been making.  One in particular stuck out. 
    After reading that, I don't think anyone is really going to spend a lot of time trying to convince you of anything.  No one can give you an opinion that will change what you already think.

     

    Try it out for yourself.  Invest time in the reading and watching videos.  No one can make you like something.  I think people are too busy having fun in-game to spend time trying to convert a hater.

    The best bet op is wait a good few weeks until people start getting to end game - this is when we will start to find out if the game is a fun long term home, or another run of the mill job.

    Okay dude, listen up. This is an Elder Scrolls game. What more do you need to hear? Go buy it and play it.

    How about because you want to play it...?

    That seems like a good enough reason to jump the wall of uncertainty.

    Indeed.

    I don't want to play TESO and i don't need a reason to make up my mind. If you want to play it but you need a reason to do it, then simply don't play it. The game is not for you, as its not for me also. I m sure though, all those who really want to play this game, there is no specific reason why they must do it. They simply want and play it. So simple.

    Probably does not matter, since you have already played in BETA, and didn't enjoy it. Not going to tell anyone how to enjoy and play a game, but to sum this up, and perhaps able to turn you to the Elder Side, try this if you play again;

    "Relax and enjoy. Watch the landscape. Do different things, like; go questing for a bit, than gathering for crafting, perhaps fishing, later on; just exploring and find shards, and perhaps find an area, that will amaze you. The mechanics behind elder scrolls are not superior, better and perhaps even in some area worse than other MMORPG. But the world and the lore is amazing and immersive. Just relax while playing"

    This game for me, have returned gaming to PLAY. This game does not need to be WORK. My goal is now to enjoy, not level.
