Unless theres some solid change on the horizon, its hard to see myself playing it past 2-3 months tops. I'll still have gotten my monies worth out of it of course, but I have a feeling the drop off point will be pretty big for ESO. (Drop off point being where a mmorpg loses a large portion of its sub base in a 2-4 month time frame after launch). There are some perks to ESO but also some glaring flaws. If theres no sense of growth soon, player drop off for some of these niche titles will drop off in short order. Thats reality for ya.
Well sofar seems it's going to take me more than a month to get to max level being a zone completionist. I can see myself playing this for probably 6 months.
Will try it when it goes F2P in a year or so. If I'm bored enough by then.
My opinion is my own. I respect all other opinions and views equally, but keep in mind that my opinion will always be the best for me. That's why it's my opinion.
Yup gonna be playing this for a long time. I don't get people who answers to this thread and they haven't even bought the game, why even bother commenting.
Waiting for the game to be less buggy and perhaps cheaper to buy then I will buy it.
Agreed. I will probably wait for the first content update/expansion before joining at this point. As much as I wanted to play at release the persistence of the same bugs throughout beta made me wary. I am glad I waited but am still looking very forward to playing at some point.

I don't understand people that openly admit they're waiting for it to "go f2p" and act like it's some sort of victory over the game. It literally just makes you look like you want to play it but you're too broke to afford it. Get a job.

The poll gives an option for people who have not yet bought it. So why can't I answer it pray tell ?

If by "victory" you mean not being "had" by another gaming publisher, then yes. When STO and TSW charged hundreds for life time subscriptions and then turned around and wen F2P within the 1st year, it left a bad taste in player's mouths. While TESO isn't charging for a LTS, it does seem to have one of the more expensive boxed fees of any MMORPG I've seen. This has NOTHING to do with "getting a job"
I just picked the game up a few days ago, having a lot of fun with it so far. I plan on re-subbing my only fear is that there's going to be a lack of high end content.

"Haven't bought it yet" is an option in the poll, as is "waiting for F2P". Clearly, the OP was interested in those votes as well.
Why do you care who comments? Are differing opinions a threat to you or something? Insecure in your own choice/vote?
Originally posted by Kuinn Why is there 2 different options for people who sub? To make it look like there's less subbers because they are divided or wut?
Actually it would mean more subs, not fewer.
One answer is future (will resub), the other is present (already have resubbed). They're both positive in that regard. As is the "1 more month" option.

Edit; actually there's 3 options for subbers if you count the "will give it 1 more month" which is a sub too.
To provide a more objective view? I mean you have satisfied, meh and disgruntled subbers in those choices and you can add those 3 options up like you can add up the rest... btw 44% sounds badish so far.

I disagree, I think it's a good representation of Elder Scrolls game-play and a solid MMORPG.
Hodor!
