Ian takes a look at the Xbox One closed beta for The Elder Scrolls online. How does it compare to the PC version, what are the quests like and most importantly; …

Awful review, clueless about the game. Those who can't provide constructive criticism should not provide any. Sub model suited me, how will a game develop with no money? I'd rather pay and get more content than take a ride on developers hard work for free, value can only be seen monetary nowadays.
this game is bad, a disgrace to both modern MMO and TES series. Bethesda shouldn't have give Zenimax to develop this game in the 1st place.
Your a terrible reviewer… your just trying incourage the old hate for the game. saying its same game as it was on pc launch. Terrible review.
Did you say "that's exactly what Bethesda has done"? I'm out
this or dragon age inquisition?
You don't even delve into pvp…
This is Bullcrap in my opinion, You're looking at it as though you wanted a skyrim mmo, rather than an mmo skyrim. The combat in ESO is vastly better than the shite in WoW or LOTRO or frankly any other MMORPG there's been. I think it's taken the MMO genre and applied Skyrim-like aspects to further improve on it. No disgustingly grindy quests, actual dialogue that is well voice-acted, amongst various other things. Granted there are things wrong with it, but no game is without flaws, Skyrim certainly wasn't… It shouldn't be judged against skyrim, it should be judged against other MMO's, and in that respect it's a winner for me.
pepole dont know that bethesda has nothing to do with the game zenimax online makes it lol well bethesda publishes it
It must suck to be this guy, seems like he's unable to enjoy anything. Or he could just be an FPS kiddie. Only impressed by flashy explosions and gunfire. Pro tip: If you can't enjoy the little things, don't play RPGs. MMO or not
I'll be playing this on launch date for Xbox one, add my gt Brosiah9 and hit me up!
Terrible review. The guy has nothing positive to say and just sounds whiney.
pahahah Jon Snow impersonators….after you give the little water bucket a little tickle lmfao!
so basically all your problems with this mmo is that its an mmo?
does it have southpaw control??
hey if anyone wants to add me on xbox one name is iiFaTexxReLoaDz
+Eurogamer Nice Video! Does anyone know if the console version has southpaw controls for movement like the past Elder Scroll games?
I think this will go down well with console gamers. It's not a bad game.
THAT OUTRO THO!
I'm sure you're aware that combat does improve when: mob sizes increase to 3-4, npcs become more powerful, you gain more abilities to choose from, and a second action bar. It also helps A LOT to be creative with your build as well to improve combat. The reality is that this 'impression' video does little to actually show what the combat will be like for most of the game… Hopefully there will be other videos that will follow to give a 'complete' impression of the combat system as well as examples of good and bad quests
Hey, do you have to get the game before you can get the beta?
If Bethesda talk about ESO at their E3 conference, I'm going to go into that corner and cry.

what the hell did they do to the interface, it is beyond ghastly. The PC one could have easily been modified for consoles but they gave us this. even with my aging eyesight I dont need things on the screen to be so BIG. So much for their minimalist UI philosophy they had at launch, this goes against all that.
I didn't like the PC version at first but in a year they improved it a lot and it feels like a solid ES game now. For fans of the series who enjoy adventuring and running quests, you'll like it. There's a lot of stuff to do and fun to be had. It's well worth the $60
Rock bard was awesome lol.
Can someone please list other open world MMO's that exceed ESO in action combat (excluding: GW2 and Terra)
You and obox Jane played the same char?
game suuuuuuuuucks
Norse metal! Made the video.
Why all the dislikes? D: And I really hope ESO isn't what Bethesda are planning on talking about during E3…
