Game looks interesting. Someone explain to me what the game is all about - the obvious and not obvious? Also, seems magic has a big role in the game. How does ESO treat players who prefer to have a weapon-based character like a warrior or soldier? Speaking of weapons, is there a variety in weapons?

It's like Skyrim but online. Except the quests are incredibly boring, story is kinda lame, has an in-game shop with lots of "DLC's", you have to spend 100 hours just to increase your useless professions and you can't FUS-RO-DAH people.
Pretty much same gameplay though.

I liked it, been playing on and off since closed beta, but I never spent as much time in it as in most classic MMOs I played. Leveling is much more enjoyable than in most, but endgame is much worse. Gameplay changed a lot from classic ES games, the character progression and choice of skills is also very different. Not a big fan of the limit to 5 skills + 1 ultimate.

I never felt any big "community" feeling as in most MMOs either, it's mostly just a bunch of people playing a single-player game side by side (except for trading and a few dungeons).

I hated it. After playing All the Elder Scroll games and loving them, I played ESO in beta and thought hey - When this comes out I'll be getting it.
Then they did a major overhaul.
I bought it around Christmas after it came out (My wife and kids were going to visit family for 3 weeks so it was all me time). After installing, patching, updating (16 hours on a 1.5megabit connection), I jumped in.
And hated it.
I played from the ESO launcher for about 20 hours, Trying each class/race hybrid etc, trying to find the gameplay that I had originally enjoyed but it just wasn't there anymore and because that didn't show up on steam as more then 4 hours, I was able to request my first ever steam refund.
I'd skip it if if you want a recommendation - But then I'm only one voice - I know others who think it's better then WoW/EQ/UO/DOTA II etc.
