This DLC is making that a thing of the past. just wasn't very good? For example, most low-level characters in Skyrim- and even Elder Scrolls Online- don't do enough sneak damage to take out a target in one hit. Have you ever played an assassin in another game that. An insta-kill ability that puts every assassin on a level playing field? That's what I'm talking 'bout. The very first skill you learn when you join the Dark Brotherhood is the Blade of Woe. Since poisoning enemies is one of the most satisfying ways to play any game, this feature alone is worth a trip back to Tamriel. When Elder Scrolls Online drops the Dark Brotherhood, you get access to a few additional skills, PLUS poison. It's the main MMORPG I keep crawling back to, largely because of the ability to build MY kind of character. Any playstyle is fair game.Ĭustomization is also what has kept RIFT successful. You can heal allies in one hand and smack enemies in the face with a shield in your offhand. You could be play anything from a fire mage in heavy armor to a dual-wielding ranger. Another major factor is the ability to customize your character to be exactly how YOU want.Īnd that's what the Elder Scrolls- even ESO- has always thrived on. Reason #2: Better Customizationīut that's not always what keeps players coming back. Sure, you could be a thief, but so what? The Thieves Guild may have had a decent questline in Skyrim, but it wasn't as epic as the Dark Brotherhood's. Well that dark side has sorely been missing in ESO to date. We invade people in Dark Souls. We steal from everybody we see in Fallout IV. And we're willing to kill people for a little gold in the Elder Scrolls. Reason #1: Join the Dark SideĮven though most gamers tend to play the "good guy," there are those of us who like to take the opposite approach every once in a while. To be more specific, here's why you should return to Tamriel. While it was sandboxy, it obviously wasn't as open as Skyrim or Oblivion. I'm assuming it was designed that way to prevent higher-level players from just obliterating entire towns of NPCs.īut between the past DLC and the upcoming ability to join the Dark Brotherhood, it's getting closer to that open world we all love.
If you're like me, the vanilla game never quite satisfied that Elder Scrolls feel.
