Skyrim Player reviews "The Elder Scrolls Online" after 100 hours.

It's awesome that so many new people are checking out this video! That being said: many of you are unfamiliar with me and my content. I don't expect you to watch all my videos before commenting and even though I mention my content in this video, I may not have taken enough time to explain. My primary objective with ESO was to see if the 10-year-old content holds up in 2024. I specifically play base-game exclusively and LOCK MYSELF inside until the zone-guide has been 100% complete! In 100 hours I have just finally completed the Aldmeri Dominion storyline and had a FANTASTIC time. At the start of EVERY video I state: "I'm trying to play ESO the way the developers intended" (back when the game launched). That means going slow and steady through story content and absorbing the world of tamriel for each zone (which is 95-97% overland content). Outside of the zone guides: I've done all the (:_FrostDominion:base-game) dungeons and some of the (:_FrostDominion:base-game) veteran dungeons! You can see @ 16:30 some of the veteran gear I obtained. I did most of the veteran dungeons without understanding what I was doing (I thought I was just queuing for a regular dungeon) and despite being in PUGs I didn't feel like it was any more challenging than a regular dungeon; just a bit longer. Dungeons are a fun thing to do but generally only take about 20-30 minutes to complete. Depending on the zone: overworld content accounts for roughly 14-20 hours of gameplay (excel sheets are posted in every video), so group content only accounts for 2-5% of my time in this game. I am a new player, this is the perspective of a hyper-casual new player trying the $5 base-game ESO package you can get on steam. So like it or not saying: "you haven't tried endgame", "wait until you have 500 hours", "do all the DLC dungeons on veteran" aren't really applicable for a new player in my position. I'm just giving my opinions of this 10-year-old game after 100 hours based on what I have experienced firsthand! I would LIKE to do another one of these videos after I've actually done trials, PvP, and harder DLC dungeons, but at that point I won't really be a new player (more like semi-experienced). The plan was to have 2-3 of these videos as time moves on so I could reflect back and watch my opinions change as I move further into the game :_FrostLove:

ESO needs a Hard Mode for overworld and quest content.

Your series got me back into the game after 10 years away. I'm having a blast, do thanks for the spark 🙏🏻

LOVEE THIS. KEEP IT UP! this style of content is HEAVILY missed on youtube.

I've been playing ESO for 4 years now and I really agree with the points you made in this video! You really highlighted and put into words why I generally avoid overland/story content in this game. I'm a PvP player and spend nearly 100% of my time in this game in Cyrodiil and Battlegrounds, and anytime I've tried to give the story content an honest shot I always find myself speedrunning through it with a "get it over with" attitude. I know ZOS has been considering finding a way to increase the challenge of overland content and that they haven't found something they like the feel of quite yet, but I really hope they do. Anyways, I'm glad you're enjoying the game! Even though you're new to the ESO community (and ESO content creation), I really think your videos are some of the best out there right now. You're genuinely making me want to try giving story content another shot and appreciate it for what is there.

Look at our boy! Look at him go! Still cannot emphasize how excited i am for you to experience the entire world and planes beyond. Being an absolute lore nut myself, one thing i love so much about new DLCs is the new lore i can discover. No spoilers obviously but the amount of new things that connect to previous TES games that explain things or create new mysteries or make you interpret the TES universe in a new light is brilliant and i think you'll love it. A lot of people seem to hate the fact that ZOS has the green light by bethesda to create cannon lore and they like to forget that, but i cant get enough of it. Its like getting an exclusive look under the cover of the secrets the elder scrolls hides and im addicted to it by every chapter that comes out XD. So happy for you that you've gained so much attention in so short a time. Will continue to support and cheer you on all the way through in every video. (if i don't comment on future videos, assume i've been torn apart by all the daedric princes i've sworn allegiance to that claim i'm their mortal champion/vessel)

So glad that youtube decided to drop your Auridon video into my reccomended two months ago, loving this series!

Amazing content like always! Just one thing I have noticed. I would change thumbnail photo to your iconic Argonian :) I missed this video twice due to the picture as I though it points out to another 10 years of ESO celebration video. But I am so happy you enjoy the game. Looking forward to some DLC playthrough <3

I've been jumping back into the game following your lead with taking it slow and immersing each of the zones has been fantastic. Excellent video review!

Great video! the editing keeps getting better, you reall wouldn't expect this level of quality from a 10k channel🙏I can't wait to see you experience all the different expansions

Speaking of Voice Acting if you didn’t realize it Lyris Titanborn is played by Jennifer Hale the same chick that played Bastila and Satele Shan in KOTOR AND SWTOR. Sai Sahan is played by Kevin Michael Richardson who also played JOLEE in KOTOR. And Cadwell is played by the great John Cleese. Truly incredible voice actors and maybe apart of the reason I love this game so much because of Jennifer and Kevin KOTOR was my game when I was a kid so seeing them together in the story again was amazing.

Great video and set of videos prior to this! I’ve been on the fence about starting this game on Xbox. I have not played any MMO or Elder Scrolls game before so I’d be a total beginner. I am looking for a long, enjoyable grind, but am worried about the time commitment of this one and don’t wanna neckbeard it too hard that I let other life priorities go. But you’ve made me want to play the game! Also nervous (and excited) about how much there is to this game. Keep up the content and maybe I’ll jump in at some point!

Really enjoying your content! keep it up, Haven't quite finished this video yet. but it'll be good

Your videos are great, a lot of fun and unique. What really makes them standout is your personality and the effort you put into them. I do want to give a couple pieces of advice if you want to take them. Don't self deprecate, it's good being humble but don't be too humble. Your opinions don't need caveats. And you just grew hugely, so it's statistically certain that you will get dedicated haters and people that are here to disagree with the title and premise of your videos without even watching them. Don't acknowledge them, they are not your audience, the silent majority is. Can't wait for the next one!

I want to love this game so much and still do. What spoils for me is when you are in a dungeon, random people come and kill the enemies. Also the enemies quickly resurrect. This is so immersion breaking. I really think they should work on a single player version which fixes these issues a bit.

Man I'd kill for a system like LotRO. Every single player of ESO has been BEGGING for more difficult overland/quest for years, both noobies and veterans alike...

eso by far has been one of my favorite games and i love hoping on everyday for a couple hrs I always feel like I have something to do and I really enjoy the player base in the game they are really kind

Letsss go, this is what I have been waiting for!

Great video man! I really appreciate how much effort and hard work you are putting into these videos. I’m currently working a ESO video and it’s taking me some time to get it done so I really do commend you for getting these videos out. Keep it up man.

I’m so happy for you and your channel keep going! You’re making great things!❤
