On which, did you know that Molag Bal is voiced by Malcolm McDowell of Clockwork Orange fame? Some others here.

Added to which Michael Gambon plays 'the Prophet', and Alfred Molina plays Abnur Tharn. A pretty stellar cast there. I had to look the latter up on IMDB because I knew the voice but it was driving me nuts putting a name to it.

Just follow this: http://www.elderscrollsguides.com/skyshards/
I'd still take the points and XP from the quests if I'm starting the game

Decided to start with the base game so went straight from the tutorial mission on Summerset to Grahtwood which gave me the Soul Shriven in Coldharbour quest.

I've gone for a Magicka Sorcerer, Altmer race, loving it so far, never gone Mage in an ES game so it feels fresh :thup:

A good all round choice, especially if you choose to persist with PvP/end game content.

Since the upgrade on Xbox one, I have had a couple of in game soft resets. Playing a quest, the whole screen goes green and reverts back to the Xbox dashboard.

Anyone else having similar?

I only play on PC but there have been several very long outages and maintenance updates since the new DLC release.

I've always had that.. The game is very laggy.

Serious issues for those who bought from Steam (not originally via the ESO site). Down again all day, and still down now. Crap response each time. I think this is where I call time on it.

Re-downloaded this and Guild Wars 2 yesterday (PC) as I feel like an MMO again. Anyone still playing? Trying to pick which to get involved with again.

Yeah, if you've got the Summerset expansion give that a go.

I'm going to get back into ESO tonight, I don't have the time I used to but I'll see what the state of the game is now.

Having got to quite a high level and been a guild member on Xbox, I've decided to make use of my new PC and have bought the game and subbed as a member. Just grinding out the levels, I need to find myself a decent guild now. Anyone else play on PC?
