My son said its not as good as Skyrim but he did enjoy this game a lot. You do need internet to play this game. He spent about 90 hours playing it the first time and after playing Skyrim he started this game again. Definitely worth buying.

I bought this thinking it would be somewhat similar to Skyrim. The only real similarity between the two are the races and the graphics. Other than that these two are almost completely different. In this game you have to upgrade your magic and keep them on hot keys, as opposed to the dual wielding of Skyrim. The crafting is completely different and there is very little resemblance to the Skyrim crafting. It takes getting used to. I am used to being able to interact with every single detail in Skyrim, like being able to pull plates off of shelves or separate ingredients. In this it's more inventory based and you cannot manipulate the outside world. The multiplayer part gets really distracting at times. I have only just started playing so I do not know how it will work out. Seems to have an interesting storyline though. Just a heads up it is a completely different type of fighting than what you do in Skyrim.Read full review

If you’re looking for the same experience and gameplay you got while playing Skyrim you need to understand that this game is an MMO and the mechanics in the game are completely different than the way things worked in Skyrim. There are hundreds of other online players playing the game at the same time as you are and you’re free to roam to areas that are higher level than what you are there for you will need to put time in the game to level up your character, weapons, armor and magic. I think it’s a great MMORPG and I love every minute of it! I would watch some gameplay if you’re on the fence about buying it or if you’re not sure you’d like it or not.

I loved skyrim, and this game broke my heart. The menu is a mess, with no way to favorite items, which, in combination with the fact that it is a multiplayer game and so combat can't be paused, means that there is no way to reactively change equipment. Oh, and each inventory item now takes up one space instead of some items being larger or smaller, so player inventory fills up way too fast. The graphics were gorgeous, but that is literally the only positive.

This is the first game I have played on xbox one that has so much to offer. You have collecting items for crafting, shrines, exploring lots of areas to find new places such as dungeons, cyrptys, tombs, and so much more. Pvp sections and group quests or just quest on your own. Great game.

Combat is a lot different than other Elder Scrolls games and, since it's an MMO, you play online with others. I prefer the Skyrim combat, but it's still pretty good. The graphics are similar to Skyrim, maybe a little better. Performance-wise, the game runs very smooth. I've had it crash on me a few times, but that may be because I have a scratched disc. Crafting is very unique in this game. Kind of confusing at first, but still very cool. Overall, great game, would definitely recommend it to a friend.
This game was not what I had expected what so ever. It felt like a poorer made watered down version of Skyrim. The game was just not captivating like its predecessors and had a lot of technical issues that end up kicking you out of the server back to the main menu right in the middle of something important. Having that happen several times i disheartening to say the least.

My "Eldest" picked this up 'cause he's got all A's again. He's been playing it all weekend and says its pretty good. its online with others so there are a lot of random Peeps running around. You can help each other but you cannot harm each other. Monsters regenerate right away so there's plenty of loot. graphics are pretty good and we experienced NO glitching. Its a good price, now. You should get it before it gets stale. Overdad
