I was skeptical at first, and only bought the thing because it was on sale and they dropped the monthly fee. There were bad reviews... but in my mind they are dead wrong. This is Elder Scrolls through and through. Voice acting, story, graphics... it's not linear at all... you can explore for hours on end and still find new things after hundreds of hours. "Beating the game", or actually completing the main storyline is only the beginning... the other areas of Tamriel are opened for you, and you can delve into quests from the other factions or just explore, go into dungeons, do whatever you want. It's the most open world I've ever seen... and it's fun when you meet decent people... also the ignore option is good for trolls. Gameplay is fun, skills are novel... fun to play with. Completely worth every dime... and it is not just a scam for money... like Star Trek Online became... don't fall into that trap. Great game.. A+.

It's still early access, but it is not good. Boring, you hardly ever see a zombie, and when you do the mechanics are horrible. No blood even. Loot is hard to find most of the time. You die from falling two feet. Waste of money, not happy at all. If you enjoy being horribly bored for a long time and frustrated as hell over dying from something stupid, then go ahead and buy it. Hopefully it gets better as they develop it, but it's got a looooooong way to go.

Very well done. A bit of a different taste of fantasy. Really well written back story that's given to you from the start, gives you a kind of vibe to start the game with. Only past the first round now, but it was highly immersive so far.

The hunted mode felt like thief mixed with l4d and zombie panic source... but better. More fair, realistic. Challenging edge of your seat pvp.

Do not play this game EVER. It was taken over by Perfect World Entertainment and it has become a SCAM. They will use every shady tactic in the book to drain every penny they can out of you and everyone playing the game until it dies. They don't care about anything but money, your situation doesn't matter, zero refunds. The content has become garbage, pure, unadalterated trash. For your own good do not buy into their scam, you will be ripped off and you will regret it. Even if you don't spend a dime on the game, which you must in order to have any chance to play well, you will not enjoy it. It is Star Trek only by name. The main activity is GRIND GRIND GRIND. They spend little time developing new content... and a ton of time promoting garbage and "events" that are nothing but grinds that have been repeated time and time again. Fail, big time.
