  • I've played Skyrim for almost 12 years now, and I've never given an "honest" try of The Elder Scrolls Online (even though it's "technically" the newest Elder Scrolls game). Every time I try to play it, I always end up putting it down just as fast.
    I've always heard ESO has some great storytelling and Elder Scrolls content. So I've decided to play it like a "singleplayer" game this time around; using immersive settings and taking a slower pace. To ensure I abide by these rules, I'm also locking myself in each ESO zone until it's 100% complete.
    Here are the rules:
    - I am not allowed to leave each respective zone until it's 100% complete.
    - The entire zone guide for each area must be complete; not just the basic map checklist.
    - All achievements in the zone guide must be earned regardless if it can be done solo or not.

    Hey man this was amazing to watch. My name is Michael Zenke, and I'm a writer on ESO. I was actually the writer for Auridon ten years ago, and it was absolutely incredible to watch someone take the story and our choices so seriously ten years later. Great points and very fairly argued, and it was a hoot to watch. I hope you keep going, lots of fun content across Tamriel and I'd be fascinated to hear other analysis like this!

    • @FrostbreakYT
      @FrostbreakYT  Před měsícem +59

      Hey Michael nice to meet you!
      I hope you didn't take criticism too much to heart! I'm judging against some of the other stuff you guys have put out and, of course, it has been over a decade! I've been having a really great time overall and am surprised more people aren't playing some of the older content. I get the "chapters" and stuff are probably the big draw to new players, but the "classic" new player experience is lots of fun and a shame some people skip out on. Glad you enjoyed!

      @@FrostbreakYT Oh 100%. I and ESO both have learned a lot in 10 years. :D And as you sort of noted in the video our goals for that zone were pretty different than they'd be if we were to do similar content nowadays. Or what our goals look like when we release new content zones. Was cool to see such a fair appraisal, good and bad. Have fun in Tamriel, man. :)

      @@MichaelZenke It's a fantastic experience for an elder scrolls fan let me tell you. I'm a pretty massive lore-nerd and you guys really do a fantastic job with tie-ins from the previous games. Specifically in Grahtwood/Valenwood: areas that have NEVER been touched by another elder scrolls game before! I can't imagine how hard it would've been to build something like that from the ground-up with no reference material.
      I've seen every rock in skyrim & every ruin in Oblivion... you know? I know those areas exist in ESO but it's not "new" to me. THIS stuff is what I live for. It's almost like playing a new TES game (which was my goal for the series and why I isolated myself in each zone)! Excited to see what else the Dominion has for me to explore :)

      That's amazing to hear. I'm pretty new to this community, but yeah.. my front page is flooded with "build guides", "Should you play?", "PvP guides", etc. I'm much more interested in the actual world of the game, less the meta/grind.
      I understand a majority of viewers are indeed only interested in the builds/grind/meta content. For content creators whose "job" is it to make ESO content, going that route is probably the best for monetary reasons. However, I don't make a cent of my videos! I just want to take it a bit slower and if there are some other like-minded people out there that's awesome!

    Coming from someone who has been playing this game since release, I put countless hours and have many memories into this game (for better or worse).
    Seeing you go through the journey I and so many other people have gone through is both nostalgic and awesome to witness from a new perspective. Im very impressed with how much research you have put into this. I'm sure you have heard by now that the dlc's are really where the game shines (storywise).
    I can't wait to watch more of this series and your channel in general, subbed!
    2 pieces of advice though! I saw someone else mention it, and I cannot stress it enough. DO NOT worry about 100% fishing. Nothing will break your willpower faster, I would save it and go back if anything.
    As for your companion, I can think of no one better than Garrus from mass effect. Even if youre not using him for the fishing perks.
    Secondly, Make sure not to burn yourself out, It's pretty easy to do, especially if you are grinding all bass game zones. By the time you get to the dlcs, you might not ever want play eso anymore. And honestly, I wouldn't even blame you. It would be a shame though, as some of them are my favorite zones in all of eso.
    Good luck man and on behalf of the daggerfall covenant welcome to the community!

Maybe I got lucky in Grahtwood, or maybe I got unlucky in Auridon. Time will tell. But I enjoy having Netflix up or something while doing some fishing. If I do start to get burnt out, yes, fishing would probably be the first thing I drop; but that's all part of the challenge!

    btw, idk if it would have changed anything, since it's been a while since i played the starter content myself, but technically Auridon is not the starter zone for Aldmeri Dominion, Khenarthi's Roost is. Khenarthi's Roost introduces a few of the important characters you will meet throughout questing through that alliance zones, so if you didn't do that, maybe it could impact your impression of the characters later on while questing through the main story (you not knowing them etc). for example you meet Silvenar and the Green Lady first in Khenarthi's but i don't remember if there are more characters (and from Auridon specifically) that you meet in Khenarthi's Roost.

    I’ve played since the release on PC and moved over to PS when they gave us a 1 time transfer. I played through like you did and story wise I thought Aldemeri Dominion was 2nd place. My favorite was the Daggerfall Covenant in terms of story. AD has the best scenery though, but there are still parts that give it a run for its money. I really hope you go through and do all the starting zones, it’s such a fun video idea and I’m glad you’re executing it. If you’re playing on PS I can help as well. Subscribed!

Daggerfall’s zone stories are interesting in how they relate to King Emeric, but more focus on the plots that surround him. The antagonists and allies to the king are all very intricate (for an MMO).
