I've play a good number of MMORPGs from Ultima Online and WoW to some that I can't even remember the names of. Every one that I've ever played left me with a long of list of things I'd change to make the perfect game. Elder Scrolls Online comes the closest to that list of any game I've played. Ever.

I've also been a big fan of The Elder Scrolls series from way back with Arena and Daggerfall. Skyrim is one of my all-time favorite games, and I'd wanted that same feel in an MMO game since it first came out.

Some of the things I LOVE about ESO:

• Enormous open world.
  
• Balanced PVP system where you don't have to worry about greifers ganking you endlessly at every turn.
  
• Rich narrative with hundreds (thousands?) of stories and fully voiced interactions.
  
• A resource and economic system that encourages trading and participation, rather than hording, grinding, and taking advantage of each other.
  
• A guild system that reflects the cooperative economic system.
  
• Simple but effective skill/leveling system.
  
• Free-to-play, but with plenty of DLC so you'll never run out of things to do.
  
• Free-to-play, but not pay to win. Crown store items might help you look cool or go up in level faster, but they won't help you win a fight. ;)

I seriously can't say enough good things about this game, the world it's created, and the people who play it.
